No Kamal for "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"

Director Vayalar Madhav initially considered Kamal Haasan for the eunuch role in "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" but opted for Tinnu Anand due to Kamal's star image. The film features a 200-year-old eunuch character researching human transformation.

South film director Vayalar Madhav had earlier planned to have Kamal Hassan to play the role of eunuch in his movie "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". But had to back out because of Kamal's over-exposed star image.

The role was of Kakathiya, the head of eunuchs, who is more than 200 years old and has been doing research on how to transform eunuchs into normal human beings.

Madhav has finally decided to take Tinnu Anand for the role due to his less starry image and great performance. The film is in Hindi, Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu. Other actors in the movie are Divya Dutta, Neha Pendse and Suhasini Mulay.

It has been reported that there were over 300 eunuchs from Mumbai, Rajasthan, Chennai and Hyderabad visiting the sets of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and also performed pujas and other rituals in the movie.
