Touted
as
a
revenge
drama
involving
the
concept
of
time
travel,
it
is
said
that
the
film
is
a
new
attempt
and
will
aim
at
providing
an
edge
of
the
seat
entertainment
to
its
audience.
"Suriya
will
be
playing
an
elder
brother
and
younger
brother.
He
will
also
be
seen
as
the
son
of
the
elder
brother," a
source
said.
It
is
also
said
that
one
of
the
characters
portrayed
by
the
Masss
hero
is
named
as
'Aathreya'
and
that
he
will
serve
as
this
film's
main
antagonist.
Also,
the
sci-fi
thriller
was
initially
offered
to
the
Selvandhan
star
Mahesh
Babu,
who
subsequently
turned
it
down
because
of
some
ostensible
issues
with
the
film's
script,
according
to
a
trusted
source.
"Director
Vikram
Kumar
had
originally
approached
Mahesh
with
the
script.
He
read
it
and
really
liked
the
first
half.
However,
he
was
not
happy
with
the
second
half
and
hence,
turned
down
the
offer,
which
eventually
was
lapped
up
by
Suriya," the
source
added.
While
AR
Rahman
is
taking
care
of
the
musical
bit
of
24,
the
film
has
two
leading
ladies
in
Samantha
and
Nithya
Menon.
