Actor R. Madhavan has denied reports that he will play the negative role in the remake of Tamil blockbuster "Thani Oruvan". He says he has not "signed or approved" any other film apart from forthcoming bilingual sport drama "Saala Khadoos" ("Irrudhi Suttru" in Tamil).
Madhavan, who was earlier seen alongside Kangana Ranaut in "Tanu Weds Manu Returns", took to Twitter on Friday to clarify the news.
In a series of tweets , Madhavan wrote: "Hey Folks.This being a verified site I shall personally tell you about the projects I have signed and doing. The rest are all rumours.
"I have not signed nor approved any other project in any language. Right now my life is only 'Saala Khadoos' and 'Irrudhi Suttru'."
Produced by filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani, "Saala Khadoos", which marks the directorial debut of Sudha Kongara Prasad in the Hindi film industry, was earlier scheduled to release on October 16.
It is Madhavan's second movie with Hirani after "3 Idiots".
