‘Nanban’, a remake of ‘3 Idiots’ by Shankar with Vijay, Srikanth and Jeeva playing the lead roles, is fast taking shape. Two schedules of the project are over so far, including some crucial scenes.

Revealing this on his official website, Shankar said, “We have finished all the college exterior scenes in our second schedule in Dehradu. It’s a visually wonderful campus.”

Happy about working with a new team, the director said, “It is very interesting and new experience for me to work with Vijay, Sathyaraj, Ileana and almost every actor for the first time.”

He added: “Vijay-Sathyaraj combo is fresh and fantastic. As friends Vijay, Jeeva and Srikanth’s ‘Physics’ & ‘Chemistry’ is working very well, behind the camera too. To say in a cliché, all of them have started living in their roles.”

Concluding the post, the ‘mega’ director of Kollywood said, “I’m enjoying working in ‘Nanban’ which is completely contrast from ‘Endhiran’ in all aspects.”
