Sivaji’s shooting commenced yesterday and the first scene was that of a song. In fact, director Shankar has decided to can the songs first and then go for the dialogues. Meanwhile, closed door discussions are on to rope in a veteran from the bunch of good friends of Rajini to play an important character in the film.

 

 

Those in the fray are Mamooty, Mohanlal, Mohanbabu and Shatrugan Sinha. Insiders say that it could either be Mamooty or Mohanlal. Mohanlal had earlier acted in Iruvar in Tamil while Mamooty played with Rajini in Dalapati. Watch this space for more developments.
