KGF fame Srinidhi Shetty signed for Chiyaan Vikram 58

After the startling announcement about cricketer Irfan Pathan starring in Vikram’s new film, the next revelation from the team has come. Former Miss Supranational, Srinidhi Shetty has been brought on board to play an important role. The actress is well known for playing the female lead in the Kannada blockbuster ‘KGF’. She is also part of the Yash starrer’s second chapter.

Tentatively titled as ‘Chiyaan Vikram 58’, this upcoming biggie is directed by Ajay Gnanamuthu, who previously helmed ‘Demonte Colony’ and ‘Imaikka Nodigal’, both of which were hits. Though an official word regarding the genre is not yet made, it is said to be an action thriller made on a big canvas. There is a buzz going around about Vikram sporting 25 different looks in the film, but the makers have not confirmed this. Priya Bhavani Shankar is also in talks to play a major role.

7 Screen Studio is producing the film, which will have music composed by maestro AR Rahman. More details are expected to be announced in the coming days.
