With the 'Ai' team being virtually impenetrable, it is impossible to gather any scoop on the film, except the word of the director, on the film's progress. But we still managed to get some info for you, having observed Upen Patel, who is making his Kollywood debut with this film. Upen, like Vikram, is on a strict diet, which is aimed towards making his physique sleek and fit for a fight sequence to be shot next month. We hear that the director himself has designed this fight sequence for Upen, who is to carry a particular form of martial arts to screen, which has never before been seen in any Kollywood or Bollywood movie.

However, the martial art form is also kept a secret, but we know that the shooting of this sequence will take place in Chennai. But why is Shankar taking every effort to make it new and big? Because, he wants the film to be on par with the Hollywood ones.
