Malaysian talents continue to make their presence felt in Indian cinema, with actor-director Logan Kanna and actress Dishaaleney Jack achieving significant milestones in their respective Kollywood journeys.

Renowned Malaysian actor and filmmaker Logan Kanna is set to strengthen his foothold in Tamil cinema with his third Kollywood venture, Lakshmikanthan Kolai Vazhakku. A respected and familiar name in Malaysia, Logan has earned admiration for his impactful performances and storytelling, with his cult classic OPPS KOSA DAPPA remaining an evergreen favourite among local audiences.

With Lakshmikanthan Kolai Vazhakku, he adds another notable project to his growing Tamil filmography. The film is directed by acclaimed Kannada filmmaker Dayal Padmanabhan, known for his distinctive narratives and strong cinematic vision. Logan recently travelled to India and successfully completed his shooting schedule for the film.

Adding to the excitement, the film’s first look poster was unveiled by celebrated Tamil filmmaker Vetrimaaran, significantly heightening anticipation. Lakshmikanthan Kolai Vazhakku is currently slated for a 2026 release, marking another important chapter in Logan’s cross-industry journey between Malaysia and India.
