Now Revathy has clarified that the project is in its early stages and no decisions have been made about the casting.  “Though this is not the right situation to talk anything about the film, whatever is being talked about is mere speculation and can be clearly looked upon as rumour. We are actually in the brooming stage only.” said the director.  “It is premature stage indeed to talk about the film, given that it is a huge project. Our team is working on marketing, production, creative aspect and designing. But as of now, nothing has been finalised yet.” she added.
