Vujay snatches it from Vikram
Director Seeman had initially planned Pagalavan with Vikram in the lead and this venture was to have been produced by director Bala. However, Pagalavan did not take off and had to be shelved for various reasons. With Seeman now finding producer Kalaipuli S Thanu to finance this project, the work has begun. When Vikram was roped for this project, there was a buzz that Vijay was under consideration but Seeman had denied it. However, with the project now shifting hands from Bala to Kalaipuli S Thanu, it looks like Vijay will play the lead role.
