Chennai, April 17 (NationPress) According to insiders in the film industry, actor Santhanam has been cast as a comedian in the highly anticipated film directed by Ramkumar Balakrishnan featuring Silambarasan in the lead role.
The project, tentatively titled #STR49, recently gained attention when the makers announced Sai Abhyankar as the music director.
Following this news, rumors have emerged suggesting that the filmmakers have successfully enlisted Santhanam, a notable figure in the Tamil film industry, to play the comedic role.
While an official announcement is still awaited, insider reports indicate that Santhanam has indeed agreed to participate in the film.
It is noteworthy that Santhanam initially made his mark as a comedian in Tamil cinema before transitioning into a leading role. After establishing himself as a hero, he had largely ceased appearing as a comedian alongside other leads.
However, it appears that Santhanam is willing to make an exception for Simbu, with whom he shares a strong friendship. Santhanam often acknowledges Simbu for his success in the film industry.
Ramkumar Balakrishnan, renowned for his hit film ‘Parking’, will be directing STR49, produced by Dawn Pictures.
So far, the makers have unveiled a poster of the project featuring Simbu with his hands folded behind his back, holding a textbook titled Engineering Materials and Metallurgy, which contains a blood-stained knife. The poster also bears the intriguing caption ‘The Most Wanted Student’.
