Madhavan who refused to do ‘3 Idiots’ for Shankar could not do the same to Lingusamy. Lingusamy's next film ‘Vettai’ is a high profile film with Dhayanidhi Alagiri of Cloud Nine Movies in charge of the affairs.

Madhavan was approached to play a negative character role in ‘Vettai’ which has Arya and Tamannah in lead roles. According to sources Madhavan who first managed to avoid the Lingusamy film has been finally roped in to play the role.

Madhavan is not the one who wants to play only the important hero roles. He is an actor more than a star who keeps on experimenting with his talent. Madhavan has done negative shaded roles before like the one in ‘Aayutha Ezhuthu’.

If Mani Ratnam has a style, Lingusamy has a different style. So it will be interesting to see know Lingusamy has pitted Madhavan against Arya.
