Vetrimaaran likely to team up with Jr NTR

Vetrimaaran has been busy promoting his recent film Viduthalai not just in Tamil Nadu, but also in Telugu states, where it is called Vidudhala.

While speaking to the media in Hyderabad, the ace Tamil filmmaker revealed that he has been wanting to work with Telugu stars Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun, and Jr NTR. Spilling the beans, Vetrimaaran admitted that he is still in talks with Jr NTR for a film, which will eventually happen.

The filmmaker said, “After Aadukalam, Allu Arjun came and met me. He told me he wants to come to Tamil and asked if I want to work with him. I told him about a powerful role in Vada Chennai at that time. Back then, the film I envisioned as Vada Chennai is not what later it turned out to be. The film (with Allu Arjun) didn’t happen.”

He continued, “Immediately after Aadukalam, I met Mahesh Babu also. After Asuran and post-lockdown, I also met Jr NTR and we are talking. It is bound to happen. I take some time to make films (laughs). It takes a long time to move on from one film to another, that’s the problem.”

When asked to choose between Jr NTR and Allu Arjun, Vetrimaaran laughed and said, “Maybe, it could be a multi-starrer.”
