Is Vikram playing the villain to another hero for the first time in his career?

We broke the news to you well before the official announcement that Vikram and Dhruv Vikram are acting together in 'Chiyaan 60' directed by Karthik Subbaraj and produced by Seven Screen Studios Lalit Kumar. The film has music by Anirudh and cinematography by Shreyas Krishna.

There is talk in Kollywood circles that Vikram is actually playing the villain in the film and Dhruv Vikram is the hero. If this happens to be true then this would be the first time that Chiyaan is playing the antagonist to another hero though he played the baddie for himself in dual roles in 'Iru Mugan'.

Earlier there was a talk that Vikram will be playing an aged gangster and Dhruv the younger version of his character. Well we have to take these bits of information with a pinch of salt as the what the story and the characters of the father-son duo is exactly will only be known when Karthik Subbaraj decides to open up. Well anyway, it sounds interesting no denying that.
