- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,May 14 2016]
Though the official announcement is getting delayed the pre-production work for Thala Ajith's 57th film to be directed by Siva is going on full swing. The film is going to be produced by the prestigious Satya Jyothi Films banner.
Last week it was being reported that the 'Irudhi Suttru' girl Rithika Singh has been approached to play the female lead in this big project. Rithika has said she can not speak anything about this as of now, which means she has not refuted the reports suggesting that she is being approached 'Thala 57' team.
Now here comes the scoop on what may be called as the casting coup of the year. An unconfirmed source suggests that the villain character in the film is equally powerful as the hero and would be like the Victor character played by Arun Vijay in 'Yennai Arindhaal'. So the makers felt that the versatile actor Vijay Sethupathi would be the apt choice for the role and he has been approached for the same.
Also Vijay Sethupathi who never cares about his star or hero image and looks only for the story and the character offered to him has apparently given his nod to take up the offer. It is also said that he is excited to act with Thala Ajith and that is one of the main reasons that made him instantly give a positive response.
"The talks between the two parties are in final stage and we can expect an official announcement soon", adds the soruce.
So is it true that Vijay Sethupathi is going to act as the villain of the much loved 'Villain'. Well, we will have to wait for official confirmation to know the answer.
