It
is
well-known
that
Ajith
Kumar
is
passionate
about
bikes
and
loves
speed,
which
became
evident
after
he
took
part
in
the
2010
season
of
the
FIA
Formula
Two
Championship.
But
we
are
not
talking
about
the
bike
race
rather
about
his
next
project,
which
is
said
to
be
a
remake
of
Bollywood
blockbuster
Race.
It
was
recently
reported
that
Thala
was
approached
to
star
in
the
Tamil
version
of
the
film
and
the
latest
to
join
him
in
the
cast
is
Silambarasan.
Rumours
say
that
Silamabarasan,
who
is
a
self-proclaimed
fan
of
Ajith
Kumar,
has
always
expressed
his
wish
to
work
with
the
Mankatha
star.
Now
that
the
latter
has
given
the
nod
to
act
in
Race
remake,
Simbu
has
requested
Venkat
Prabhu,
who
is
said
to
be
the
director
of
the
film,
to
consider
him
for
the
second
lead
role.
Though,
nothing
has
been
finalised
yet,
the
Vinnaithaandi
Varuvaayaa
star's
wish
has
gone
well
with
the
makers
of
the
film.
However,
there
are
also
speculations
that
Ajith
Kumar
might
play
dual
roles
instead
of
casting
another
actor.
Nonetheless,
nothing
has
been
revealed
and
the
details
about
the
project
have
been
kept
under
wraps.
Bollywood
movie
Race,
which
starred
Saif
Ali
Khan,
Akshay
Khanna,
Katrina
Kaif,
Bipasha
Basu,
Anil
Kapoor
and
Sameera
Reddy,
is
about
sibling
rivalry,
about
their
betrayal
and
greed,
intrigue
and
revenge.
It
was
directed
by
Abbas-Mustan.
