Ajith
Kumar's
next
has
been
titled
'Valimai'
and
the
movie
will
be
directed
by
H
Vinoth,
with
whom
Thala
had
previously
teamed
up
for
Nerkonda
Paarvai.
While
the
shoot
of
the
film
is
yet
to
begin,
rumours
have
been
doing
the
rounds
regarding
the
star
cast.
Most
recently,
a
few
reports
had
come,
claiming
popular
actor
and
director
SJ
Suryah
might
be
seen
playing
the
main
antagonist
in
this
much-awaited
movie.
However,
according
to
the
latest
reports,
SJ
Suryah
has
refuted
such
rumours.
Reportedly,
the
actor-director
gave
clarity
on
this
during
a
recent
conversation.
He
mentioned
that
nobody
has
approached
him
to
play
the
lead
antagonist
in
Valimai.
At
the
same
time,
he
also
made
it
clear
that
he
would
be
willing
to
take
up
the
role
if
such
an
offer
comes,
especially
because
of
the
good
rapport
he
shares
with
Ajith
Kumar.
Interestingly,
Ajith
Kumar
and
SJ
Suryah
had
teamed
up
for
Vaali,
which
was
the
debut
directorial
of
the
latter.
The
movie,
which
released
in
1999,
was
a
huge
success
and
is
considered
to
be
one
among
the
path-breaking
Tamil
movies.
Thala's
performance
in
the
film
was
highly
talked
about.
On
the
other
hand,
SJ
Suryah,
who
has
now
shifted
focus
to
acting
is
not
new
to
villain
roles.
He
had
played
the
main
antagonist
in
Mersal,
in
which
he
was
pitted
opposite
Thalapathy
Vijay.
The
actor-director
impressed
everyone
as
the
main
villain
in
the
2017
movie.
He
also
played
the
antagonist
in
the
Mahesh
Babu
starrer
Spyder,
directed
by
popular
filmmaker
AR
Murugadoss.
Meanwhile,
SJ
Suryah
is
busy
with
his
other
acting
ventures.
He
will
be
seen
playing
the
lead
in
the
upcoming
movie
Bommai,
which
is
being
directed
by
Radha
Mohan.
At
the
same
time,
reports
suggest
that
the
first
schedule
of
Valimai
will
commence
in
December.
The
team
is
expected
to
announce
the
star
cast
of
the
movie
soon.
