A
recent
buzz
had
suggested
that
Suriya,
who
was
last
seen
in
the
sci-fi
time
traveling
thriller
24,
might
be
roped
into
director
Sundar's
upcoming
historical
movie,
which
is
tipped
to
be
on
the
lines
of
Telugu
film
Magadheera.
Now,
a
source
close
to
the
project
has
confirmed
that
the
Aadhavan
actor
is
indeed
in
talks
with
the
production
house,
and
if
everything
goes
well,
he
might
be
roped
in
to
play
the
lead.
Speaking
to
Times
of
India,
the
source
has
said,
"Discussions
are
on
with
Suriya,
and
we
are
sorting
out
the
dates.
We
are
also
in
talks
with
a
top
actress
from
Bollywood,
but
we
haven't
signed
any
of
the
actors."
There
were
reports
that
suggested
the
makers
are
interested
to
get
Deepika
Padukone
on
board.
But
a
birdie
close
to
the
actress
has
denied
it
and
has
added,
"Deepika
is
not
in
talks
for
any
Tamil
film.
As
of
now,
she
is
busy
with
other
commitments."
According
to
the
report
from
the
leading
daily,
only
the
technicians
have
been
finalised.
"As
of
now,
we
have
only
finalised
the
technicians.
Kamala
Kannan,
who
did
the
VFX
for
'Baahubali',
will
be
roped
in
for
this
film,
too.
Sundar
sir
is
still
working
on
the
script,
and
will
take
some
time
for
the
official
announcement," the
source
has
added.
Meanwhile,
Suriya
is
busy
shooting
for
S3,
the
sequel
to
his
superhit
films
Singam
and
Singam
2.
Being
directed
by
Hari,
who
had
helmed
the
prequels,
S3
will
have
Anushka
and
Shruti
Haasan
playing
important
roles.
While
Harris
Jayaraj
has
been
roped
in
to
compose
tunes
for
the
movie,
Priyan
and
VT
Vijayan
have
been
brought
on
board
to
take
care
of
the
cinematography
and
editing,
respectively.
S3
is
being
bankrolled
by
KE
Gnanavel
Raja.
