News is trickling in about Ajith’s project, Asal, just as shooting for the film has begun. The film stars the Ultimate Star and Sameera Reddy in the lead, and it is said that Mamta Mohandas could be playing second fiddle in the film.

The latest we hear about the flick is about its villain. Remember actor Rajiv Krishna, who played a soft chocolate boy in Aaha? The actor, who later did smaller roles in films like ‘Hey Nee Romba Azhaga Irukka’, turned to a villain with S J Suryah’s ‘Newtonin Moondram Vidhi’. It is now being said that this actor, who is a relative of Suresh Menon, Revathy’s husband, will play villain in Ajith’s ‘Asal’.

But that’s not all we have for you. It seems like director Saran, conceding to requests from Ajith’s fans, has inserted a bike race sequence in the film. The actor, who was a racer until he quit it to concentrate on films, has earlier featured such a bike chase scene in his ‘Paramasivam’. This scene of the film is also proposed to be followed by a song about the actor being No 1 in every track, which his fans always see him as. ‘Asal’ surely promises to have some ‘Asal’ Thala action.
