February 29, 2008, 3:50:44 PM (www.galatta.com) Yes. This is the latest buzz in Kollywood. One of India's premier filmmakers, Mani Ratnam, joining hands with the talented Vikram is a dream come for movie buffs. Reliable sources indicate that the duo will come together for a project that will be unique and special. Vikram is currently shooting for Kanthasamy which is directed by Mani Ratnam's protégé Susi Ganesan. He is expected to do Mani's film after completing Kanthasamy. The fact that Vikram has postponed his film with Bhoopathy Pandian, which he was supposed to do after Kanthasamy, adds credibilty to the news. Mani Ratnam, who struck gold in Bollywood with Guru last year, was supposed to do Lajjo with Aamir Khan. However, the project has fallen off the tracks as Aamir is busy with his Ghajini. Hence, the maker is planning to make a Tamil film with Vikram in the lead. Meanwhile, there are also reports that Mani is planning to repeat the lead in his previous film, Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, in a breezy romantic film on the lines of his Alaipayuthey. The reports say that the film will be in Hindi but will be dubbed into Tamil. Well, we expect the director himself to put an end to such conflicting reports. Anand
