Director Deekay says he still hasn't finalised actress Kajal Aggarwal, but is seriously considering her for his next yet-untitled Tamil outing which will be a dark comedy.
"Kajal is definitely my first choice but I haven't signed her yet. In fact, we haven't signed anyone yet for the project. Everything is still in the discussion stage," Deekay told IANS, confirming that it will be a dark comedy with ample thrills.
He also denied rumours that the project was originally planned with Nayanthara.
"A production house wanted me to write a script for a project with Nayanthara. Unfortunately, I couldn't finish the script as planned and the plan fell through," he said.
Deekay confirmed that a sequel to his 2014 sleeper hit "Yaamirukka Bayamey" is on the cards.
"The sequel is happening but I'm not sure whether I will direct it. I'll be penning the script and one of my assistants might helm it," he added.
