UTV Motion Pictures has inked a three-film deal with renowned Tamil producer-director N Linguswamy to co-produce, market and distribute his movies. The studio will produce and distribute N Linguswamy's three projects – ‘Vettai’, ‘Vazhakku Enn 18/9’ and ‘Kumki’.
‘Vazhukku Enn 18/9’ will be written and directed by Balaji Sakthivel, who has helmed films like ‘Kadhal’ and ‘Kalloori’. The film has a new cast and will release in September.
