Neil Nitin Mukesh, who was pitted against Vijay in AR Murugadoss-directed Kaththi, has been approached to play an important role in Rajinikanth-Shankar’s mega-budget Endhiran 2 which is expected to go on floors later this month. Sources say Neil has already given his in-principle nod and an official confirmation can be expected soon.
Amy Jackson will play one of the female leads and the other role is yet to be finalized. The team has also roped in Arnold Schwarzenegger to play the antagonist. The formal announcement of the project was supposed to be made on December 12th on Rajinikanth’s birthday, but the team has reportedly postponed it with the flood-ravaged Chennai kneeling back to normalcy.
