Azhagu Raja to roll from October

The buzz in the industry is that, Rajesh is all set to direct Udhayanidhi Stalin and Santhanam again in the remake of Aan Paavam.

However, Rajesh refutes these reports, saying, “Udhay has got the remake rights of the film, but I don’t know who will be helming the project. I’m not comfortable working on remakes because there are bound to be comparisons. Moreover, if the script is my own, I know I can handle it with ease when penning the dialogues.”

Meanwhile, Rajesh informs us that he will go on floors with All In All Azhagu Raja from October. He adds, “The script is in place, and I’ve finished writing the dialogues for the first half. Even the cast is in place — Karthi and Kajal will be playing the lead. We will go on floors with the film in the fag end of September. I guess Karthi will complete a schedule for Biriyani as well by then.”
