Recently, at a special show held at Chennai, which was attended by the real Padman Arunachalam Muruganandham himself, when questioned on whom he wants to play himself on screen in the Tamil version, he immediately responded as Dhanush. With talks already on to remake Padman in Tamil, with makers approaching Dhanush, let's see if the national award-winning actor takes it up. If Dhanush accepts, he would be doing the remake in both Tamil and Telugu.
