Filmmaker Gautham Vasudev Menon, contrary to recent reports, won't be playing the antagonist in his upcoming Tamil film "Enai Nokki Paayum Thota", which stars Dhanush in the lead.
"Gautham sir is not playing the baddie. He is too busy juggling between the sets of two projects, including 'Achcham Yenbathu Madamaiyada' with actor Simbu. Where will he have the time to act? It's just a rumour that's going around," a source close to the director told IANS.
Gautham is currently busy wrapping up the last schedule of "Achcham Yenbathu Madamaiyada", and will soon return to the sets of "Enai Nokki Paayum Thota".
Dhanush will sport two different looks in the film, which is being produced by Ondraga Entertainment.
"He has already shot his portion with one of the looks. He will sport a new look and shoot rest of the portion," the source said.
Megha Akash plays Dhanush's leading lady in "Enai Nokki Paayum Thota", which is expected to hit the screens later this year.
