Earlier, we have reported that ace director Mani Ratnam is back to his favourite forte: romantic musicals. According to sources, Mani Ratnam's next will be an intense love story based on the sensitive issue of plight of Rameshwaram fishermen at the hands of Sri Lankan Navy. The film will have actor Karthik's son Gautham in the lead role. It is heard that recently the director called Tollywood sensation Samantha for a screen test at his office in Chennai. However she failed to impress the ace director and was eventually rejected. The director is still looking for a suitable actress for his film.
Veteran cinematographer Rajeev Menon and music director A.R. Rahman will reportedly be a part of this project. Well, it looks like the ace director is all set to recapture the magic of Roja, Mouna Raagam and Alaipayuthey again on screen.
