Madhavan was getting ready for a long holiday with his family members when he got a call from Kamal Haasan to act in his forthcoming film, tentatively titled ‘Yaavarum Kelir’. Without any second thought, the actor postponed his vacation, not ready to miss an opportunity to act with the ‘Ulaga Nayagan’.

“I share a very good rapport with Kamal sir. ‘Anbe Sivam’ in which we acted together was a special film in my career. I was also there in his production venture ‘Nala Damayanthi’ playing the protagonist,” Madhavan says.

He adds: “I was waiting for an opportunity to work with Kamal again. And when this offer with him came along, I had no other option than postponing my holiday. My family members, who always support me a lot, don’t have any complaints.”

To be produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin and directed by Kamal’s lucky mascot K S Ravikumar, the film, which may undergo a title change, will have Trisha opposite the ‘Ulaga Nayagan’. It will be shot in Monte Carlo at one stretch, we learn.
