Kannada actor-director Ramesh Aravind, who is directing "Uthama Villain", says that Kamal Haasan is not only playing the lead, but also writing the script of his movie.
The film will go on floors in November.
"The current working title is 'Uthama Villain', we are working on the script right now, Kamal is writing the script for the movie," Ramesh told IANS.
This is not Ramesh and Kamal's first film together. Both of them have acted together in films like "Sathi Leelavathy", "Panchathanthiram" and "Mumbai Express".
The duo share a good friendship off the screen as well.
When asked what kind of movie it will be, Ramesh said: "Just give us two weeks and we will let you know more about it."
What about the lead actress?
"Nothing has been decided yet," said Ramesh.
The movie is said to be a bilingual and will be made in Kannada and Tamil.
