While the makers are in search of the cast of the film, reportedly Kichcha Sudeep has been approached for Prithiviraj’s character.
A source close to the film unit told a leading daily that Sudeep is the top contender to step into the shoes of Prithviraj, played by Koshy Kurien in the original. The team felt that the character suits the image of Sudeep more convincingly and the actor too was pleased with the offer and has requested the bound script. He might sign the dotted line if his role offers equal screen presence and significance to that of Pawan Kalyan’s.
