Ajith - Vishnuvardhan for Tamil 'Panjaa'?

There is always an enigma attached with Ajith and his films. The star, who is at the moment, busy with his upcoming 'Billa 2,' directed by Chakri Toleti, is touted to sign on the dotted line for a Vishnuvardhan directorial. There is a whiff in the Tamil movie circles that this film might be funded by AM Ratnam.

Ajith had declared sometime ago that he likes Vishnuvardhan's work style. So post his shoot for 'Billa 2' the actor might make himself available for his pal, Vishnu. Vishnuvardhan is currently busy with the third and the final schedule of his Pawan Kalyan starrer 'Panjaa,' which is getting readied for release on December 9. Though this Telugu film has not hit the theatres yet, there are already talks in the film circles that suggest that 'Panjaa' might be remade in Tamil under Vishnu's direction with Ajith playing lead in the Tamil version!

There are reports in media circles that Vishnu too has confirmed that he will be working with Ajith in the near future.

Post the splendid success of 'Mankatha,' Thala is giving his undivided attention to 'Billa 2.' The film will see beauty queen Parvathy Omanakuttan and Bruna Abdullah playing pivotal roles. This suave flick is touted to grace theatres on April 14, 2012.
