Director Vi Anand says his forthcoming Telugu actioner Tiger` was originally planned to be made in Tamil, but the plan didn`t materialise due to casting issues. However, he`s positive that it will get remade in Tamil sooner or later.

"When I pitched the story to my mentor A.R. Murugadoss, he instantly liked it and was interested in producing it. He sent me to Fox Star Studios, who also liked it. But it`s a two heroes subject and the casting part became tricky for the Tamil version," Anand told.

Though Anand had plans to cast Jiiva or Vijay Sethupathi in one of the lead characters, the plan didn`t go the way he had anticipated.

"As the project was getting delayed, I met actor Sundeep Kishan to make the film in Telugu. Sundeep sent me to producer Tagore Madhu, who`s very close to Murugadoss. Luckily, Murugadoss vouched for me and it worked in my favour," he said, and added that plans for remaking the film in Tamil is still open.

"Tiger", which releases in cinemas on Friday, features Sundeep and Rahul Ravindran in the lead roles.
