Director Saran and Ajith Kumar are gearing up for the new project which will be Ajith's 49th venture. This is director Saran's fourth film with Ajith, after Kadhal Mannan, Amarkalam and Attagasam; all their previous ventures where super hits at the box office. Asal’s tagline is as powerful as ultimate star Ajith The Power of Silence. Sameera Reddy is doing female lead.

Greed as an underlying force strains a family run conglomerate and the shadow it casts threatens to engulf everything in its path. Opportunists and mayhem mongers seem to be cropping out of nowhere to take advantage of this dangerous situation. As evil looms large there is Shiva (Ajith) a lone force standing tall and facing down this overwhelming threat. Not sure who to trust, Shiva, tries to stay a step ahead of imminent death that nips at his heels. Intrigue, suspense, love, betrayal are all spun into a tight web in this action filled adventure Aasal.

Asal is produced by actor Prabhu under the banner of Sivaji Productions. Bharadwaj is done the music. Nirav Shah who filmed Ajith's Billa will be the cinematographer. The film is rumored to be an action packed one and will present the hero as a tough encounter cop.
