This is one announcement everyone in B-Town is waiting for. India's highest paid filmmaker Shankar - who put himself on the global map with the Rajinikanth-starrer Robot (2010) that grossed over Rs 200 crores,
followed by the Tamil remake of 3 Idiots called Nanban (2012) - will return to the big screen with Tamil superstar Vikram, who romanced Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Mani Ratnam's Raavan.
Our source says, "Shankar's next film will star the National Award-winning actor and will have music by AR Rahman. It will be shot simultaneously in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. In all likelihood, Deepika Padukone will play Vikram's love interest in the film."
TOI messaged Deepika, who is currently shooting in Manali with Ranbir Kapoor, but she chose not to comment. Her spokesperson too refused to confirm this development because talks are still in the very early stage. However, our source adds, "Deepika is kicked about being considered by Shankar, the man who gave Ash megahits like Jeans (1998) and Robot. Also, this will be her second big outing in the South after Kochadaiyaan, in which she stars opposite Rajinikanth, and is likely to give her an elevated positioning there."
