Official: Irfan Pathan to make his acting debut with Chiyaan Vikram 58
Last day, a startling announcement was made by the makers of actor Vikram’s new film. The project tentatively titled as ‘Chiyaan Vikram 58’ will have former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan in a major role. Though Pathan did not reveal details about his character, he sounded excited about the same as he tweeted,
“New venture, new challenge looking forward to it.”
‘Chiyaan Vikram 58’ will be directed by Ajay Gnanamuthu, who previously helmed ‘Demonte Colony’ and ‘Imaikka Nodigal’, both of which were hits. Said to be an action thriller made on a big canvas, this new film will have music composed by maestro AR Rahman.
There is a buzz going around that Vikram will be sporting 25 different looks in the film, but the makers are yet to confirm this. Priya Bhavani Shankar will be seen as the female lead. 7 Screen Studio and Viacom 18 Studios are jointly producing the film.
