Venkatesh is one actor who has always yearned for experiments. His strike rate at the box-office since the late 1990s has been phenomenal.

After doing commercial outings like 'F2' and the yet-to-be-released 'Venky Mama', he has latched on to the Telugu remake of the Tamil movie 'Asuran'. The versatile actor will be playing a married man in this action drama that is replete with sublime moments. Director Vetrimaaran is known for a knack for extracting the best from his actors.

After playing typical family man roles in several movies, Venkatesh is surely trying something radically different for Telugu cinema. This time, the set-up is not a 'Sankranthi'-type house but a feudal village.

After shining in a 'Drushyam' and a 'Guru', the 'Asuran' remake is the kind of film that was needed from Venkatesh. Our bets are that this film will go down as one of the best ones in the actor's career.
