Actor
Prithviraj,
one
of
the
promising
young
heroes
of
South
Film
Industry,
has
decided
to
step
down
from
hero
position
for
a
film!
The
reason
is
ace
filmmaker
Mani
Rathnam.
From
Amitabh
to
Aishwarya
Rai,
every
actor
is
considering
Mani
Rathnam
is
something
special
and
has
the
wish
to
act
in
his
lovely
direction
at
least
once
in
their
life
time.
That
is
the
special
of
Mani
Rathnam.
Now
he
is
making
his
new
Tamil-Hindi
bi-lingual
with
Abhishek
–
Aishwarya
Rai
and
Vikram.
The
director
needs
a
special
villain
for
this
movie.
The
character
of
this
villain
is
something
high
tech
but
poisoned
with
a
sugar
coat.
For
this
role,
Prithviraj
is
said
to
be
the
first
choice
of
Mani
Rathnam
and
he
has
almost
finalized
Prithviraj
to
play
the
role.
Though
Prithvi
entered
Tamil
Cinema
playing
a
villain
in
Kana
Kanden,
hit
films
like
Paarijatham,
Mozhi
and
Vellithirai
have
now
given
him
an
image
of
a
soft
hero.
Mainstream
actors
usually
won't
try
doing
a
villain
role
and
damage
their
image
of
a
hero
that
they
have
attained
after
much
hard
work.
But
Prithvi
is
accepting
the
role
just
to
add
a
new
colour
in
his
career.
