Mankatha
is
undoubtedly
one
of
the
best
films
of
Thala
Ajith.
Being
a
blockbuster
at
the
theatres,
fans
and
followers
of
the
actor
had
requested
the
director
Venkat
Prabhu
for
a
sequel
to
the
2011
film.
The
action-thriller
that
marked
the
50th
film
of
the
actor,
proved
to
be
a
lucky
charm
for
Venkat
too,
as
he
turned
into
one
of
the
most
bankable
directors
of
Kollywood
after
its
release.
Not
too
long
ago,
a
rumour
surfaced
the
internet
about
the
humongous
collaboration
of
Ajith
Kumar
and
Vijay
for
Mankatha
2.
It
was
also
reported
that
the
director
has
approached
Thalapathy
to
narrate
the
story.
Well,
recently
during
an
interaction
with
The
Hindu,
Venkat
Prabhu
said
that
he
has
a
few
ideas
for
a
film,
which
is
only
possible
if
both
the
stars
accept
the
offer.
He
was
quoted
by
the
news
daily
as,
"It
will
be
the
best
thing
for
people
after
COVID-19.
It
could
instantly
bring
back
the
theatre
experience
for
fans.
I
don't
know
if
I
will
be
the
one
to
bring
them
(Ajith
and
Vijay)
together
on
screen
or
if
it
will
be
someone
else.
I
have
a
few
ideas,
but
it
can
only
move
forward
if
both
accept."
Interestingly,
he
also
revealed
that
he
has
pitched
the
same
idea
to
the
actors.
He
said,
"When
I
pitched
an
idea
of
them
working
together,
they
were
like
'Yes,
pannalaame'
(we
can
do
it)."
We
are
sure
this
piece
of
news
might
have
excited
the
fans,
who
are
eagerly
awaiting
for
the
big
two
stars
to
share
screen-space
in
a
big-budget
film.
Well,
we
have
our
fingers
crossed
and
hope
that
the
big
project
gets
a
confirmation
sooner
or
later.
For
the
unversed,
Ajith
and
Vijay
have
earlier
collaborated
for
1995
film
Rajavin
Parvaiyile
directed
by
Janaki
Soundar.
