Vijay Sethupathi to star in ‘C/O Saira Banu’ fame RJ Shaan’s directorial debut
Popular RJ Shaan, who made his debut as a scenarist with the Manju Warrier starrer ‘C/O Saira Banu’ is all set to turn a director. His debut film will have Tamil cinema’s Makkal Selvan Vijay Sethupathi in the lead. Last day, Shaan had shared a selfie taken with the ‘Vikram Vedha’ star in his social media handle. Along with that, he also hinted that shoot will begin this year itself.
Of late, Vijay Sethupathi has been very open to doing other language films and multi-starrers. He made his debut in Malayalam last year with the Jayaram starrer ‘Marconi Mathai’. For Shaan’s directorial debut, Manju Warrier and Biju Menon have also been approached to star alongside Vijay Sethupathi. Moreover, it is learnt that the film has been planned as a bilingual in Tamil and Malayalam.
If things turn out as per plans, the film will go on floors by April. A formal announcement is expected to be made after finalizing the remaining cast and crew.
