Did you know a Bollywood actor was first choice for S.J. Suryahs role in Mark Antony ?

The SciFi fantasy comedy 'Mark Antony' directed by Adhik Ravichandran and starring Vishal and S.J. Suryah in the lead roles was released recently and became a super hit. It is noteworthy that Vishal spoke passionately about the success of this film yesterday at a press meet revealing that it has come to him after 16 years of struggle.

Those who have watched the 'Mark Antony' know that both Vishal and S.J, Suryah have played dual roles in this film with the latter shining as the evil father and son Jackie Pandian and Madan Pandian.

It has been revealed during the success meet that the famous Bollywood actor cum filmmaker Anurag Kashyap was the original choice to play Jackie Pandian. However S.J. Suryah loved the character so much that he requested Adhik to cast him in both roles. The move has paid very well for the team now as fans are celebrating Suryah calling him the Nadippu Arakkan.

'Mark Antony' has music by G.V. Prakash Kumar and is produced by Vinod Kumar. The film apart from S.J. Suryah and Vishal also stars Suneel, Abhinaya, Ritu Varma, Redin Kingsley and Selvaraghavan.
