Nakul is all set to become a journalist. Not in a real life, but for a film. Titled ‘Thalaippu Seithigal’, the movie will be directed by John Mahendran, whose debut venture is the Vijay starrer ‘Sachin’.

The film, which will throw light on the lives of mediapersons, will however be a comedy caper. “Travails of journalists while in search for scoop news will be show in hilarious way,” sources say.

Apart from Nakul, Suri and Appukutty will play two other important roles. “Attempts are also on to rope in Sathyaraj and Yuhi Sethu. Music for ‘Thalaippu Seithigal’ will be composed by James Vasanthan,” add sources.

In the meantime, Nakul is also busy with a film directed by ‘Eeram’ fame Arivazhagan. Since he is playing the role of a basketball player in the movie, the actor is busy practicing the game besides sweating out in gym.
