Nandha
Ajith was Bala`s first choice for this emotional film and even a poster featuring the then Ultimate Star came out but as fate it would have it Thala was unable to do the project and it fell on Suirya`s lap who grabbed the opportunity in both hands and used it as the launch pad to break into the big league.
Madras
