Karthi to play a dual role in Kashmora

Karthi is currently busy shooting Komban with Kutti Puli director Muthaiah. Meanwhile, work on his next project, which will be directed by Gokul, is picking up steam. We hear that the actor will be playing two roles in the film, which has now been titled Kashmora.

"Yes, Karthi will be seen in two roles in the film," confirms the Idharkuthaane Aasaipattai Balakumara director, but refuses to talk more on the roles because it will reveal the plot of the film. "All I can say that the intriguing title refers to a per son," he adds. The director also clarifies that while Shruti Haasan and Vadivelu are in consideration for the heroine and comedian roles, they have not yet been signed up. The film, he says, cannot exactly be called a comedy , but will have some humorous situations.

The shoot of the film is expected to start by October-end as Karthi has to wrap up his work on Komban, for which he has grown a handlebar moustache.

Karthi, whose last release was Alex Pandian, has made it clear that he will not be acting for the sake of awards. The actor said that he was open to doing any kind of character and believed that the accolades that he receives from the audience would be more than enough to the actor, rather than receiving an award or trophy.

Karthi is currently shooting for Rajesh's All in All Azhagu Raja in Pollachi district and has revealed that he has discussed the possibility of a sequel to Siruthai with the director of the original, Siva. Siva, on the other hand is busy with the shoot for his next film with Ajith.

In the meantime, Karthi has wrapped up the shoot for Venkat Prabhu's Biriyani and the trailer of the film is expected to hit screens soon.
