Nivin Pauly to work with Ajith in Viswasam?

Nivin Pauly is currently awaiting the release of his first straight Tamil film Richie, slated to hit screens on December 8. Meanwhile, reports are doing the rounds about Nivin Pauly being approached to play a pivotal part in Thala Ajith’s upcoming movie Viswasam. Reportedly, the makers are in talks with a couple of young leading actors and Nivin is also one among them.

Viswasam marks Ajith’s fourth film with director Siva after Veeram, Vedhalam and Vivegam. It is said to be a rural commercial entertainer on the lines of Veeram. If Nivin Pauly signs for the movie, it will be a huge booster as the actor has a great market in his home state Kerala. We are still awaiting for an official confirmation about Nivin and Ajith coming together in Viswasam.

Siva himself has scripted this movie, pre-production works for which are currently progressing at a rapid pace. Anushka Shetty is the front runner for the female lead and Yuvan Shankar Raja for the music director of Viswasam. The makers are expected to make an official announcement about the project with the cast and crew details very soon.

Sathya Jyothi Films, who funded Vivegam, is producing this upcoming venture as well. Shoot for the movie will be commencing in January and is slated for a grand Diwali release next year.
