South Indian super star Vikram has launched his own banner to produce a Tamil film featuring newcomers. According to latest reports, Vikram has been nurturing the idea of turning producer for a long time and is expected to rope in sensational director Sasikumar of Subramaniapuram fame to direct the film.
In an exclusive interview with a leading newspaper, Vikram said, "I have floated my own banner and our first untitled venture will be directed by Sasikumar. The film will feature newcomers. The technical team will comprise cinematographer Kathir and music director James Vasanthan, who have worked with Sasikumar before. After watching Subramaniapuram, I wanted to do a film with Sasi. I read the script, set in Chennai, and found it fantastic. I’m sure it would turn out to be a signature Sasikumar film."
Asked whether he would do a cameo in this film, Vikram said: "I would love to make an Alfred Hitchcock type appearance, but it will be Sasi’s call." Vikram recently completed Mani Rathnam’s Raavan and a three-week Ladakh schedule for Selvaraghavan’s film.
