It’s believed that Selvaraghavan decided to rope in cinematographer P.C.Sreeram for his project with Vikram, a year ago. Not only this, Selva had already worked on the script of the project and had given a copy each to P.C.Sreeram and Suriya.

But as Suriya was too busy with the tight schedule of Goutham’s ‘Varanam Aayiram’ and then ‘Ayan’, he decided to give call-sheet after a year. But as Selva did not feel like to waiting for such a long time, he passed out the script book to our Chiyan’s table this time.

However after reading the script half the way, Vikram had asked Selva a little time until he finish his commitments for Susi’s ‘Kanthaswamy’. But as Vikram signed up for Mani Ratnam’s ‘Raavana’ after ‘Kanthaswamy’, Selva was irked and decided to go back to get Suriya’s help.

Suriya gladly spoke with his brother about this offer and that’s how Selva got Karthi as his hero for ‘Aayirathil Oruvan’. But no!  Selva did not use that handy script with Karthi, Selva made a quickie time machine script for ‘Aayirathil Oruvan’ in just 15 days.

Know what’s the reason why Selva did not use his arm candy script? Looks like Vikram called Selva and blocked him from using the script that was preordained for him.

Phew… What a lot of politics in cinema guys?
