Shreya Saran on a roll; signs Saguni

Glamorous actress Shreya Saran is on a roll, as she has signed a third Tamil film in the year. After approving Jeeva's Rowthiram and Kamal Hassan'sVishwaroopam, now she has given the nod for Karthi's upcoming political thriller Saguni.

The makers of the film have recently zeroed in on Shreya Saran for the female lead role in Saguni. For the first time, the actress is pairing up with Karthi. The actress has liked the script and gave her consent without any hesitation, says a source close to the producer. 

Report says that the movie will feature another top actress for the second female lead. An unconfirmed report claims that Bengaluru babe Pranitha has been roped in.

However, Saguni is directed by newcomer Shankar Dayal and produced by Dream Warrior Pictures. The movie has GV Prakash Kumar's music and PG Muthiah's cinematography.

Kamal's Vishwaroopam: India's costliest film?

It came as a shocker when director Selvaraghavan opted out of his very ambitious project Vishwaroopam, which has Kamal Haasan and Sonakshi Sinha in the lead roles. It is said that since Selva couldn't complete his ongoing project Irandam Ulagam with Dhanush on time, the producers approached Kamal Haasan to wield the megaphone.
However, Kamal's Viswaroopam will have a different story altogether. Reportedly theManmadhan Ambu star has just retained the title for the film. Apart from that, he will also pen the screenplay, dialogues and lyrics for the film. Sources also confirm that Viswaroopamwill be a trilingual being made simultaneously in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. And if all goes well, this will be the costliest Indian film ever made. Interestingly, Selvaraghavan and Kamal Haasan are likely to team up for another project in future.
The shoot for Viswaroopam is now likely to begin in the first week of June and will be completed in 100 days. Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy will score the music of this film.
A big budget venture in 100 days? Let's wait and watch!
