Chakri Tholeti to direct Kamal once again

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,March 14 2012]

The 'bhangima' boy from Sagara Sangamam, who directed Kamal Hassan and Venkatesh in Eenadu, is all set to direct the 'Universal Hero' yet another time. The film will be produced by Aascar Ravichandran, and the script is being prepared by none other than Kamal.

The film will go on the floors after Kamal is done with everything, including promotional tours for Vishwaroopam. Kamal and Ravichandran were keen on roping in Shankar to direct this movie. However, since Shankar wants to make a movie with his own story, he declined the offer.

As the offer went to Chakri, the young director immediately lapped it up. He shares very good rapport with Kamal. On the other hand, he has now the experience of directing Ajith in Billa2, which is a grand summer release in Tamil Nadu. (It is releasing in April).
