Filmmaker Adhik Ravichandran who made heads turn with his debut adult comedy Trisha Illana Nayanthara is all smiles. Reason? He managed to convince Simbu with his script! Yes, if everything goes well, he will be directing Simbu soon once the latter completes his existing projects including Gautham Menon’s Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada.
“I met Simbu a while ago and narrated the script. He loved it and gave his nod immediately. However, we are yet to make this information official. The film would be a full-on commercial action-packed entertainer with equal doses of romance and comedy — catering to the youth,” says Adhik, and adds, “Simbu will be essaying three roles in the film, which will have three heroines, one of them from Bollywood — talks are on to zero in on the cast.”
Cinema has always fascinated Adhik since childhood and doing a film with an established actor like Simbu is indeed an advantage.
“I wanted to make it big in the industry some day. All I am doing now is working towards it. For the moment, that alone matters,” he smiles.
Ask him why Simbu, Adhik tells us, “When Trisha... released, he was the first person in the industry to call and congratulate me. Moreover, the script needed Simbu and I am glad that he agreed with me. We are yet to fine-tune further details — by mid June, everything will be finalised.”
