Bala's upcoming film, 'Vanangaan' headlined by Arun Vijay has find itself in a legal tussle over its title. The bench, led by Justice Velmurugan of the Madras High Court, has dismissed the plea of S Saravanan, who filed a PIL to stop the release of Bala and Arun Vijay's Vanangaan over the film's title.

The cast also includes Ridha, Chhaya Devi, Bala Sivaji, Shanmugarajan, Dr Yohan Chacko, Kavitha Gopi, Brindha Sarathy, Mai Pa Narayanan, Aruldass, and Munish Sivagurunath, among others.
The film has music by GV Prakash, cinematography by RB Gurudev, and editing by Sathish Suriya. Karthik Netha has penned the lyrics for the songs in Vanangaan, while Silva has choreographed the stunts in it. The film is produced by Suresh Kamatchi's V House Productions.
