Kollywood industry sources have stated that the buzz is that Shankar is all set to rope in Chiyaan Vikram and Illayathalapathy Vijay for his upcoming movie post the successful completion and release of Rajinikanth Starrer 2.O.
Currently Shankar is in the process of making India's costliest movie ever, 2.O, with high standards and extremely above par visual effects. The movie might as well end up as the biggest grosser ever if the same is complimented with positive word of mouth post release.
Recently, both Vijay and Vikram were spotted at a party hosted by Shankar
which was said to be a celebration to commemorate Akshay Kumar's winning of
National Award in the category of Best Actor. Akki is playing the role of an
antagonist in 2.O and Shankar, in order to celebrate the happiness of his
present colleague had invited his supposed future colleagues.
Shankar who is a brand by himself has a dominant hold on all four Southern states and a decent amount of pull in the northern circuits. The maverick director stands next to Superstar Rajinikanth in the overseas market (i.e., USA, UK, Malaysia, Singapore etc.).
