R Madhavan's 'G.D.N.' biopic wraps filming, targets May 2026 release
R. Madhavan's next big project, G.D.N., has finished shooting!
The film tells the inspiring story of Gopalaswamy Doraiswamy Naidu—a self-taught engineer who built India's first homegrown electric motor and petrol engines.
The team marked the wrap with a celebration in Dubai, and director Krishnakumar Ramakumar is at the helm.
When can you watch it?
G.D.N. is slated for a worldwide theatrical release in 2026. There's no word yet on which streaming platforms will get it after that.

Who else is in it?
The cast lineup is stacked: Priyamani, Jayaram, Sathyaraj, Yogi Babu, Dushara Vijayan, Vinay Rai, and Thambi Ramaiah join Madhavan on screen.
Produced by Varghese and Vijay Moolan (Varghese Moolan Pictures), and R Madhavan and Sarita Madhavan (Tricolour Films), with music by Govind Vasantha—this one sounds like a passion project all around.
