Ileana refuses Rajini`s Kuselan

January 28th, 2008

The movie Kuselan will be remake of Sreenivasan`s Malayalam super hit Katha Parayumbol and is going to be directed by P. Vasu. Kavithalaya and Seven Arts are jointly producing the film in Tamil.

Since the movie is going to be a bi-lingual with Kuselan being made in both Tamil and Telugu, Ileana was approched to play the role opposite to Superstar Rajinikanth as director felt she would suit the role in both the languages for this movie. Sources has it that the actress was not satisfied and has refused to do the movie. Hence director P.Vasu has zeroed in on Nayantara to do the movie and has asked for her call sheet. If Nayan agrees to the movie with Rajini, she will be hitting a hatrick with the superstar as this will be her third movie after Chandramukhi and Shivaji.

Rajinikanth will finish this movie before he starts shooting for Robot. P. Vasu and Rajni had earlier joined hands to give the super hit movie Chandramukhi which also was a Malayalam remake. The movie will be made in Tamil and Telugu simultaneously and producer C Ashwini Dutt will be producing the Telugu version of Rajnikant’s forthcoming film under his Vyjayanthi Movies banner.
