The unit will have Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Trisha taking part in the shoot. After wrapping up the Chennai schedule, the team will shift to Hyderabad where Thotta Tharani is working on a huge set of a Chola palace.” The composer of the film AR Rahman took to Twitter and said that stills from the sets shared with him by cinematographer Ravi Varman are ‘totally lit’.
