The news from Dasavatharam camp is that the film’s shoot has been progressing well in Malaysia.

Several locals (with Chinese-Japanese facial features) are participating in the shoot.

Now, this makes speculation on the story very interesting.

As a local Malaysian company is also co-opted as a producer, the shooting has been very intense and interesting.

With Oscar Ravichandran and the Malaysian company as the producer, this is believed to be the costliest Kamal movie ever.

Kamal plays ten roles while Asin has two. Mallika Sherawat is also in the cast.

Meanwhile, Kamal, who is very particular about the dialogues, has been conferring with the writer Crazy Mohan for hours together.

Crazy Mohan has not gone to Malaysia. But Kamal is on the telephone line on a daily basis and the dialogues carry a special stamp of humour.
