Filmmaker Vikram Kumar, who is getting ready to direct Vikram for a film titled ‘24’, says his basic idea is not to work with established actors alone but it happens so based on the demands of the script.

“A big hero like Vikram is needed for ‘24’. Likewise, my earlier films ‘Yaavarum Nalam’ and ‘Alai’ too demanded actors like Madhavan and Silambarasan respectively,” says the director.

On ‘24’, he says, “it is not a story that happens in 24 hours. It is a humour film loaded with romance, fantasy and action. In other words, it is also a science fiction. The movie will show a different face of Vikram.”

Heaping laurels on Vikram, he says, “he expressed interest to be part of the project as soon as I narrated him the storyline. I am thrilled to work with him.”
