Vikram's
period
film
Karikalan
seems
to
be
heading
nowhere.
After
shooting
25
percent
of
the
film,
the
upcoming
Tamil
flick
has
come
to
a
standstill,
as
the
actor
is
busy
with
his
other
project
thereby
putting
the
movie
on
hold.
Grapevine
has
it
that
Vikram,
who
participated
in
the
first
schedule,
is
keeping
himself
busy
with
his
Bollywood
project
David.
Of
late,
he
was
also
in
London
for
his
upcoming
Tamil
movie
Thandaavam,
which
was
launched
after
Karikalan.
However,
the
actor
seems
to
be
in
no
mood
to
join
the
Karikalan
shoot
in
the
near
future
as
he
is
devoting
his
full
time
to
his
other
films.
Meanwhile,
director
Kannan
has
denied
the
reports
and
has
said
that
as
Vikram
is
busy
in
other
projects,
Karikalan
is
expected
to
restart
in
June.
The
first
schedule
of
the
shooting
is
completed
and
the
unit
is
raring
to
start
the
second
phase.
Karikalan
is
a
historical
movie
based
on
one
of
the
popular
Tamil
kings,
Karikalan
Chola.
Bollywood
actress
Zarine
Khan
is
enacting
the
character
of
Velir
girl
and
Anjali
will
be
seen
in
an
important
role.
