Kollywood Superstar Ajith Kumar will be playing the lead role in director H. Vinoth's highly anticipated film Valimai. The film is produced by Boney Kapoor under the banner Bayview Projects LLP. Valimai marks Ajith's second collaboration with H. Vinoth and the production company after the successful courtroom drama Nerkonda Paarvai.
It is official that Ajith will be donning the role of a cop and the actor's dark-haired look for the film has left the fans completely excited. The film is set to release on Diwali next year and the makers have already shot major portions in Hyderabad.
Our close sources have confirmed that actor Pavel Navageethan, who has played significant roles in films such as 'Vada Chennai', 'Kuttram Kadidhal' and 'Madras' to name a few, will be playing a role with negative shades in Valimai. Sources have also informed that the actor has already completed a schedule for the film. It must be noted that Pavel lent the voice for the character Kawas (played by Sujith Shankar) in Nerkonda Paarvai.
Pavel recently turned director with the crime-thriller V1, which had Ram Arun Castro playing the lead role. Valimai is lensed by ace cinematographer Nirav Shah while Yuvan Shankar Raja will be composing music for the film. Valimai's female lead is yet to be officially announced.
