Even as ‘Billa 2’ is gearing up for a release, Ajith’s next with Vishnuvardhan is already making several headlines. The latest is that Bollywood director cum actor cum producer Mahesh Manjrekar will play baddie in this yet-to-be-titled film.

However it is said that there are few other villains as well in this film where Mahesh Manjrekar plays the main villain. This is not the first time he’s playing baddie for he played the bad guy in blockbusters like ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ and few other Hindi films.

National Award winning Manjrekar is known for critically acclaimed films ‘Vaastav: The Reality’, ‘Astitya’ and ‘Viruddh… Family Comes First’.

This to-be-titled venture by AM Ratnam goes on floors in Mumbai on June 2. Ajith, Arya, Nayantara and Taapsee Pannu play lead roles, while music is by Yuvan Shankar Raja
