The young director wrote, "With @arrahman sir always feel happy n blessed to stand next to this Man #VR with #AR sir . #cannesfilmfestival #cannes #cannes2019. [sic]"

Looking at the hash tags given by him, one gets an impression that the director is at the Cannes Film Festival to launch his next film with Sivakarthikeyan. However, official announcement is awaited.

The 72nd Cannes Film Festival will be held between 14 and 25 May. 

It may be recalled that Sundar C's ambitious film Sangamithra, starring Jayam Ravi, Shruthi Haasan and Arya, was launched at the French Riveria. Unfortunately, the project was shelved owing to multiple issues.
