The combo of KB, Rajini and Vasu

Before starting the mega project 'Robot' with Shankar, superstar Rajinikanth might do a film for his mentor K. Balachander. The film, a remake of Malayalam super hit 'Katha Parayumbol' is said to be directed by P Vasu, inform reliable sources.

Panju Arunachalam, who had produced many Rajini films in his earlier days, might be roped in as a joint producer of the venture.

The original movie, released during 2007 Deepavali, had Mammootty in the lead role. The emotional story value and the outstanding performances by Sreenivasan and Mammootty made the film a super hit.

Last week Sreenivasan, who was the writer and co-producer of the story, held a special screening of the film for Rajinikanth in Chennai. Rajini is said to be impressed with the movie.

The film will be a blithesome sentimental comedy. The story revolves around a deep friendship between a barber in a village and a superstar who comes there to shoot a film.

Pasupathy might do the role of the barber, while Rajini will play the superstar. Vidyasagar would handle the music.

Since Rajini wants to bring out the film as soon as possible, the shooting might start immediately. The film might hit the screens by July, after which the mega project 'Robot' would be started.

It is worth recalling that Prakash Raj and Prithviraj starrer 'Vellithirai' too is a remake of Sreenivasan's 'Udayananu Tharam'.

The official announcement however, is expected to be made within a couple of days. If the news is confirmed it could be another blockbuster from the combination of Rajini-P Vasu-Vidyasagar, remaking a Malayalam flick.
