Maniratnam's Madras Talkies has reportedly signed a record deal of Rs. 120 crores with Reliance Big Picture, a division of the multi-crore Anil Dhirubai Ambani Group for his new untitled film which will simultaneously be made in three languages- Tamil, Telugu and Hindi.
The Hindi version will have Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai in the lead and Govinda in a negative role, while the Tamil and Telugu versions will have Vikram doing Abhishek's role. Aishwarya Rai will be the heroine for all the three versions.
The role being done by Govinda in Hindi would be recreated in Tamil and Telugu by Pritviraj, if one has to go by reports. Meanwhile, there are also rumors doing rounds that Karthik, who recently floated his own political outfit would do the villain.
