Arvind Swamy had recently expressed disinterest towards playing the villain, prompting the makers to approach Suryah.
The film stars Ravi Teja and Catherine Tresa playing the lead roles, directed by Lakshman, who also directed the original. Ravi will be playing Jayam Ravi’s role of an honest police officer. The untitled project will roll from November.
Suryah, incidentally, is also playing the villain in Mahesh Babu’s upcoming film Spyder, slated to release on September 27. He also has Selvaraghavan’s Nenjam Marappathillai and Ashwin Saravanan’s Iravakaalam.
