Perhaps,
if
we
had
reported
this
news
a
few
years
back,
it
would've
seemed
irrational,
but
not
anymore
as
there
is
nothing
Dhanush
can't
do
at
the
moment,
including
playing
the
lead
in
a
Hollywood
flick.
In
the
ongoing
68th
Annual
Cannes
Film
Festival
being
held
at
France,
famed
Persian
writer
and
director
Marjane
Satrapi
has
revealed
her
idea
of
compressing
a
best
selling
novel
into
the
big
screen.
'Extraordinary
Journey
of
the
Fakir
Who
Got
Trapped
in
an
Ikea
Wardrobe'
is
a
2013
French
novel
written
by
Romain
Puertolas.
The
book
narrates
the
story
of
a
Rajasthan
man
who
travels
to
Paris
to
buy
a
bed
of
nails
from
an
Ikea
store.
Now
according
to
some
reliable
sources,
the
movie
which
is
based
on
this
novel
will
be
made
in
English
and
that
talks
are
on
with
Dhanush
to
play
the
protagonist,
Fakir.
Marjane
Satrapi's
2011
film
Chicken
with
Plums
gained
her
critical
recognition,
presenting
her
the
Best
Feature
Film
Director
Award
at
the
Noor
Iranian
Film
Festival.
Known
for
dishing
out
critically
acclaimed
novels
and
films,
Marjane
Satrapi's
collaboration
with
Dhanush,
if
the
project
materializes,
would
be
a
treat
to
watch,
not
only
for
Indian
audience
but
for
movie
lovers
all
over
the
world.
Also,
this
movie
could
present
Dhanush
with
a
rare
opportunity,
that
of
becoming
a
Hollywood
star.
Will
he
be
able
to
go
all
the
way
to
Hollywood
in
the
near
future?
