According
to
the
latest
reports,
actor-filmmaker
Kamal
Haasan
is
likely
to
play
the
lead
role
in
the
Tamil
remake
of
Aamir
Khan's
super-hit
Hindi
movie
PK.
Official
confirmation
from
the
maverick
actor-director
is
awaited.
The
Tamil
version
of
the
movie
will
be
produced
by
Gemini
Film
Circuit,
they
had
earlier
bankrolled
the
remake
versions
of
Rajkumar
Hirani
movies
like
Munnabhai
M.B.B.S
and
3
Idiots
as
Vasool
Raja
M.B.B.S
and
Nanban
respectively.
"Gemini
Film
Circuit
has
acquired
the
film's
remake
rights
and
Kamal
Haasan
is
expected
to
play
the
lead.
Gemini
had
already
remade
two
of
Hirani's
films
and
they
were
really
impressed
with
'PK'
too," a
source
close
to
the
production
house
said.
Kamal
Haasan
is
yet
to
choose
a
director
for
the
project,
the
rest
of
the
cast
will
be
finalized
soon.
"Kamal
sir
will
choose
the
director
of
his
choice.
He
might
even
direct
it," revealed
a
source.
With
Kamal
Haasan's
Vishwaroopam
running
into
trouble,
it
will
indeed
be
a
bold
move
from
the
Nayagan
actor
to
take
up
PK
as
the
Aamir
Khan
starrer
too
had
sequences
that
could
potentially
hurt
the
religious
sentiments
of
certain
groups.
Director
Venkat
Prabhu
had
earlier
said
that
the
Tamil
version
of
PK
might
not
even
allowed
to
be
released
in
Tamil
Nadu
as
the
movie
has
sensitive
content
which
might
not
go
well
with
the
Tamil
Nadu
audience.
PK
is
currently
the
highest
grossing
Indian
movie
ever.
While
the
remake
version
will
have
its
benefits,
it
is
to
be
seen
if
Kamal
Haasan
still
has
enough
in
him
to
take
a
huge
risk
by
involving
himself
in
the
Tamil
remake
of
PK.
