Everyone was thinking if Asin would ever come down to south after her Hindi 'Ghajini' became a super hit there. As she was paring with big shot there the actress even changed her base from Chennai to Mumbai.

But like a sudden jolt we hear news about Asin returning to South to pair with our Vijay. Birdies say that this maybe because the girl’s latest release ‘London Dreams’ did not make business like her previous hit.

Looks like the Malabar beauty did not get any further Bollywood offers and was waiting for a good offer. But then when she came to Chennai for getting her Kalaimamani Award from the TN government, she caught the Sura of South - Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay!

Remember a film that is in pipeline, for which ‘Jayam’ Raja is directing Vijay under the banner of Aascar Films? Yeah, it’s for the same project, say the sources in the know.

After ‘Pokkiri’, we can see Vijay romancing Asin in this one! It’s also worthy to mention that Asin’s last film in Tamil ‘Dasavatharam’ was for Aascar Films.
