Ram has struck gold again and how. Close on the heels of a hit, Lady Luck has chosen Ram one more time. He will play the lead role in Gautham Menon's forthcoming film. Now, this is old news. What's new is that, the film's music will be composed by AR Rahman.

It may be noted that the film was threateningly on hold because of Ram's rumoured problems with Bellamkonda Suresh, who was to produce this movie. However, with Gautham Menon himself now choosing to produce the movie, Ram has apparently found no problem in being part of the venture.

This is a big time offer for Ram, who is accepted in action roles as well as he is liked in chocolate boy acts. On Menon's part, the ace director has proved himself with a cop story like Gharshana (Venkatesh) and a romantic film like Ye Maya Chesave (Nag Chaitanya).

The film with Ram in the lead and Gautham directing him will definitely be eagerly watched out for by the audience. If it becomes a hit, it will raise the curtain for more Kollywoodian trysts with Telugu stars. The Tamil version will be made with Jiiva in the lead.
