Actor-filmmaker Ameer has been brought
in as the replacement for actor Vijay Sethupathi, who walked out of
Dhanush's "Vada Chennai" following date issues.
Vijay Sethupathi was to play a brief role in the film.
"Ameer has replaced Vijay in the film. It's an intense role and
Vetrimaaran, amidst his other options, really felt Ameer can pull it
off. He will join the sets from the film's next schedule," a source
from the film's unit told IANS.
The film, which will be made in three parts, will chronicle 30 years in
the life of a gangster from north Chennai, and also Samuthirakani.
This project will mark Vetrimaaran's fifth association with Dhanush.
Apart from working in films such as "Pollathavan" and "Aadukalam", the
duo has also jointly produced critically-acclaimed films "Kaaka Muttai"
and "Visaaranai".
