"The Xpose" actress Zoya Afroz may team up with actor Shanmugapandian, son of veteran actor-politician Vijayakanth, in upcoming Tamil revolutionary film "Tamizhan Endru Sol".
"Zoya is almost finalised for the project, which will mark her Tamil debut. The makers are expected to officially announce the news in a week's time," a source from the film's unit told IANS, adding that actress Disha Patani is also under consideration for it.
The film, which will mark Vijayakanth's comeback after five years, will feature him alongside his son in a full-length role.
Interestingly, it's Vijayakanth, known for blockbusters such as "Captain Prabhakar", "Chinna Gounder" and "Ramanaa", who will be playing the lead in "Tamizhana".
"It will be a period fantasy film that will emphasize on Tamil language. Vijayakanth will be playing a king from a long forgotten era," the source said.
