Tollywood calling Deepika

Hyderabad, April 14: Shankar is considering Deepika Padukone for the film starring Tamil actor Vikram. Shankar is known to be the highest paid filmmaker in India, who has put himself up in the global scenario with his 200 Crore budgeted film, ‘Robot’. He had also made the Tamil version of ‘3 Idiot’ called ‘Nanban’ in the running year. Shankar is going to return after a quite long break with his next film starring the Tamil superstar, Vikram, who acted opposite to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Mani Ratanam’s ‘Raavan’.
Sources say that Shankar is going to cast the National Award winning actor and the film is going to have music by A. R. Rahman. The film will be shot simultaneously in three languages, Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. Deepika is likely to star opposite of Vikram playing the role of his love interest.
Deepika, who’s involved in her ongoing project in Manali, had chosen not to give any direct answer right now. Also her spokesperson is refusing to comment anything on the matter as of now. However, sources add that Deepika is stunned by the consideration from Shankar, the man who gave super hits like ‘Jeans’ (1998) and ‘Robot’, but is not able to give any specific response. However, if she takes on the project, it will be her second big outing in the south after ‘Kochadiayaan ’starring opposite to Rajinikant.
