It is all happening for the happening actor Vikram. After completing his Anniyan, Vikram appeared before the camera to shoot for Coca Cola commercial directed by cinematographer Rajeev Menon.

Meanwhile, the actor who won the National Award for his splendid performance in Pithamagan has also been chosen to play the lead role in a Hindi movie.

Vikram would play alongside Big B - Amithabh Bachchan to be produced and directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who produced Munnabhai MBBS.

Interestingly, Vikram, as his wont these days, would be sporting a different get up altogether for the role.

A couple of decades ago, Kamal Haasan ventured into Bollywood with Ek Duje Ke Liye and went on to act make a mark.

Vikram, who has high regard and admiration for Kamal, hopes to emulate him.

Incidentally, Vikram, like Kamal, was born in Paramakudi in Tamil Nadu.
