Earlier,
we
had
informed
you
that
actresses
Kriti
Sanon
and
Tamannaah
Bhatia
have
been
approached
to
play
female
leads
in
Ajith's
upcoming
flick,
Thala
57.
Now,
according
to
the
latest
report,
model
turned
actress
Kriti
Sanon
might
have
been
roped
into
the
movie
with
the
team
hunting
for
the
second
actress.
Speculations
are
rife
that
the
Yennai
Arindhaal
star
may
play
dual
role
in
the
much
anticipated
film
and
hence
director
Siva
and
his
team
are
on
the
look
out
for
yet
another
actress.
Though
it
is
said
that
Kriti
will
be
making
her
Tamil
debut
with
Thala
57,
an
official
word
from
sources
close
to
the
project
is
still
awaited.
It
was
also
reported
that
Nayantara
too,
was
approached
for
one
of
the
heroine
roles.
Update
on
Nayantara's
reply
is
awaited
as
well.
Among
many
other
speculations
pertaining
to
Thala
57
was
the
idea
of
including
Mohanlal
in
the
star
cast.
It
was
said
that
the
Malayalam
star
was
approached
to
play
the
villain
in
the
movie.
To
be
bankrolled
by
Sathya
Jyothi
Films,
official
announcement
regarding
Ajith's
57th
film
is
expected
to
be
made
by
the
end
of
this
month
or
latest
by
May
first
week.
Meanwhile,
Shobha
Chandrasekhar,
mother
of
Ilayathalapathy
Vijay
has
said
that
Ajith
and
Vijay
are
not
competitors
but
friends.
She
has
reportedly
said
that
she
even
paid
Ajith
and
his
wife
Shalini
a
visit,
when
their
second
child
was
born.
Vaali,
Aasai
and
Kadhal
Kottai
are
some
of
her
favourite
movies
of
Ajith,
according
to
a
report.
For
decades
now,
Ajith
and
Vijay
are
considered
as
fierce
rivals.
But
the
two
prominent
actors
of
Tamil
cinema
are
good
friends
off-screen.
