Shankar’s I is probably the hottest thing in Kollywood right now. The team’s tactic of revealing things now and then is proving to be very useful in building up the much needed curiosity. The latest news is that the film’s lead Vikram has two get ups in the film. For one of the roles he will have to look slim and fit and for the other he must put on weight to look fat.
Shankar will shoot one half of the film with Vikram looking slim now and will give him three months time to gain weight. After that, the director will shoot the rest of the film. The director is also planning to shoot major portion of the film in China.
