Rumour mills say that Shankar has plans to direct an action thriller with Ajith Kumar. The talks are on and the project is likely to be materialised.

Aascar Ravichandran, who is very close to Shankar and also producing his forthcoming movie Ai, has come forward to produce the mega-budget project. The producer is excited about the plan and the project is expected to take off in December 2014. But sources say that the team is yet to start the serious talks on the movie.

Meanwhile, Shankar is busy with his much-awaited Ai starring Ajith Kumar and Amy Jackson. On the other end, Ajith Kumar is gearing up to start his next movie with Gautham Menon. It is likely to kick-start on February 24.
