Ever since Kaatru Veliyidai released, there have been numerous speculations one after another about who is going to be Mani Ratnam's next hero. Names like Abishek Bachchan, Fahad Fassil and Ram Charan were doing the rounds in connection with this flick but according to the latest report that we have got, Mani Ratnam is likely to team up with 'Makkal Selvan' Vijay Sethupathi up next.

Our sources say that Vijay Sethupathi had recently met Mani Ratnam at his office to discuss this project. Vijay Sethupathi as we know has the knack of choosing right scripts that suit his image. So how would a refined sophisticated director use Vijay Sethupathi in his film? That basic knot by itself creates a curiosity. Hope the project happens and let us wait for an official confirmation from the team.
