It is no longer news that Malayalam blockbuster ‘Traffic’ that garnered the attention of one and all including the Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan himself, will be remade in Tamil with Sarathkumar in the lead.

Industry insiders have it that the original film’s director Rajesh Pillai who was touted to helm the Tamil remake as well has walked out of it citing date issues! Now, Shaheed Kader who is the former’s assistant will be wielding the megaphone of ‘Traffic’.

The film was all set to go on floors long back but thanks to a recent unofficial tussle between the producers’ council and workers the shoot of various Tamil films were indefinitely delayed.

Now Rajesh needs to concentrate on the Hindi version of the film and has opted out of the Tamil one.

‘Traffic’s Tamil version will be co-produced by Radhika Sarathkumar and Listin Stephen and stars Sarathkumar as a cop with an ensemble of others including Prasanna, Prakash Raj, Nassar and Radhika Sarathkumar.
