It
has
been
a
mixed
bag
for
all
those
Silambarasan
aka
Simbu's
fans
out
there
in
the
last
few
days.
While
his
break-up
with
Hansika
Motwani
has
created
furor
in
cine
circles,
his
teaming
up
with
his
ex-girlfriend
Nayantara
has
thrilled
them.
Well,
the
actors
will
be
joining
hands
for
a
movie
directed
by
Pandiraj.
It
has
come
as
a
surprising
news
for
the
industry
over
Simbu
and
Nayantara's
decision
to
work
together
again.
The
duo
has
been
avoiding
each
other
ever
since
their
break
up.
Well,
the
news
of
Nayan-Simbu
teaming
up
has
been
confirmed
by
none
other
than
Pandiraj
himself.
Pandiraj
believes
that
the
role
is
tailor-made
for
Nayantara.
He
offered
the
movie
to
her
through
cinematographer
Balasubramaniyam,
who
is
handling
the
camera
of
her
forthcoming
Tamil
flick
Idhu
Kathirvelan
Kadhal.
The
actress
liked
her
character,
but
was
not
willing
to
take
up
because
Simbu
was
the
leading
man
in
the
flick.
"I
felt
that
Nayanthara
would
be
a
perfect
fit
for
the
character
and
approached
her
through
our
cinematographer
Balasubramaniem,
who
is
working
with
her
in
Idhu
Kathirvelan
Kadhal.
She
liked
the
role,
but
was
reluctant
to
agree
because
Simbu
was
the
lead," the
Times
of
India
quotes
the
director
as
saying.

What
Made
Nayan-Simbu
To
Agree?
The
director
convinced
her
by
citing
an
example
of
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Deepika
Padukone,
who
worked
together
in
a
movie
even
after
their
break
up.
Nayantara
Agreed
To
Work
With
Simbu
Nayantara
was
convinced
and
understood
that
they
suit
the
roles
better
than
anybody
else.
Hence,
she
gave
a
green
signal
for
the
flick.
Simbu
Was
Reluctant
To
Work
With
Nayan
Pandiraj
claims
that
Simbu
too
was
reluctant
when
approached
to
play
the
lead
role
and
the
director
told
the
same
to
him.
Simbu-Nayantara
Are
Professionals
According
to
the
director,
Simbu
and
Nayantara
are
professionals
and
they
would
do
justice
for
their
roles.
They
know
that
their
combo
will
benefit
the
flick.
