Simbu's English film will be completed by December

After the debacle of Adhik Ravichandran’s Anbanavan Asaradhavan Adangadhavan, hero Simbu has moved on. He will be teaming up with director Mani Ratnam’s next film which has an ensemble cast in the form of Vijay Sethupathi, Jyothika, Arvind Swami, Fahadh Faasil, Aishwarya Rajesh and others.

Even before the announcement of Mani Ratnam’s film, Simbu had announced that he will be directing an English film, which will reportedly not have any songs or an interval break.

The latest on this film is that the shoot is to be wrapped up by the end of December, so that the actor can commence work on Mani Ratnam’s next project that’s scheduled to begin in January 2018. Gautham Menon will be penning the dialogues and camera will be handled by Santhosh Sivan.

Since Gautham is busy with Dhruva Natchathiram and Santhosh Sivan with Spyder, shoot for the Simbu film will begin in October end. Yuvan Shankar Raja has already completed the background score for the film, which will be edited by Antony. The film will be dubbed in Tamil and other regional languages.
