When Samantha turned down the offer, her role went to the  actress  Nayanthara. It is reported that Samantha and the movie director of the upcoming film, Atlee share an amazing bond and have worked together earlier on various movies like ‘Theri’ and ‘Mersal’. According to reports, the shooting of the movie has already begun with Nayanthara. There has been no statement so far regarding this by either Samantha or the makers of the movie.
