Chennai, June 9

Actress Keerthi Suresh, who is currently awaiting the release of Tamil films "Idhu Enna Maayam" and "Rajini Murugan", has reportedly bagged a role opposite Dhanush in filmmaker Prabhu Solomon's yet-untitled travel drama in the language.

"Keerthi was recently signed on for the project. Director Prabhu felt she would be perfect for the role. Initially, he had plans of casting a newcomer, but after seeing Keerthi's work in Malayalam, he decided to go with her," a source told IANS.

The film's story is about a man who travels from Delhi to Chennai via Duronto Express.

In the movie, Dhanush is said to be playing a pantry worker.

The film will go on floors as soon as Dhanush completes shooting for his Tamil film "VIP 2".
