Chennai, July 12

Actor Abhinay Vaddi, who played mathematics wizard Srinivasa Ramanujan in Tamil biopic "Ramanujan", will next be seen in physiological thriller "Michaelagiya Naan". The film's director assures that audiences will get to see the actor in a different avatar in the film.

"It will feature Abhinay in a role so different from what we saw of him in 'Ramanujan'. I feel it will be a great change for audiences as well as for him. I couldn't believe the Abhinay I saw in 'Ramanujan', in which he played a Tamil Brahmin, while in my film he plays a Christian," director Aar K told IANS.

"It's a physiological thriller with some element supernatural towards the climax, which will shock the audiences to the core," he added.

"Michaelagiya Naan" features Vasundhara Kashyap and Mallvi in the lead roles.
