Earlier,
it
was
speculated
that
Thala
Ajith
may
pair
up
with
Nayantara
for
the
fourth
time
in
the
Tamil
remake
of
Malayalam
superhit
Bhaskar
the
Rascal.
But
according
to
the
latest
buzz,
it
is
superstar
Rajinikanth
who
is
in
talks
to
star
in
the
movie.
Yes,
the
latest
report
has
it
that
Rajinikanth
has
expressed
interest
over
the
film
and
has
asked
director
Siddique
to
wait
until
he
is
done
with
his
current
commitment,
Shankar's
2.O.
Speaking
to
a
Malayalam
news
portal,
Siddique
has
said
that
the
Tamil
remake
may
have
Rajinikanth
and
Nayantara
playing
the
lead,
if
everything
goes
according
to
plans.
While
the
Enthiran
star
may
portray
the
role
of
a
single
father,
originally
played
by
Mammootty,
Nayantara
will
reprise
her
role
in
the
Tamil
version.
This
piece
of
information
contradicts
with
the
recent
claim
that
said
Rajinikanth
may
remake
a
Kannada
film
titled
Shivalinga,
which
has
Sandalwood
superstar
Shivarajkumar
in
the
lead.
With
nothing
being
confirmed
as
of
now,
the
safe
bet
would
be
to
wait
for
the
official
news,
which
may
happen
in
the
near
future.
