At a time when movies on underworld are holding the sway in Kollywood, director Lingusamy has decided to cash in on the trend.

His forthcoming Bheema is also a movie on gangsters.

Says Lingusamy, 'it is the movie on underworld. But would try to probe the other side of their life. Bheema would have action but would not be eye-soaring for the audience.'

'I had detailed discussion with Vikram on preparing himself for the title role. He has changed not just his looks, but also his body language and shed some weight to suit the role'.

The movie has Trisha and Bollywood actor Nana Patrekar in the cast. Bheema being produced by A M Rathnam has musical score by Harris Jeyaraj.

The first schedule of Bheema commenced a couple of days ago.
