Director SJ Suryah has been finalized as the antagonist for Mahesh Babu-AR Murugadoss bilingual project.
Apparently, Makers of Dhanush starrer 'Yennai Nokki Paayum' approached SJ Suryah to play a pivotal role. Suryah has softly refused the offer citing his commitment given to Mahesh & ARM. If not for the deadly combo, Who would dare to reject the project directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon.
SJ Suryah has played the lead roles in few Tamil films. Currently, He is playing a crucial role in Vijay Sethupathy's movie 'Iraivi'. Playing a villain in Mahesh-starrer will be a welcome change for Suryah.
Sai Pallavi of 'Premam' fame and Keerthy Suresh were considered to play female lead in Mahesh Babu-AR Murugadoss project. Shoot might begin by April end or May first half.
