Looks
like there is stiff competition between
the lead ladies of Tamil cinema to
be cast in the remake of old Rajini
hit Billa, which is titled Billa 2007.
The late 80s hit which starred Rajini,
Praveena, and Sripriya will be remade
with Ajith in the lead. Though Nayanthara
has been finalized for the role done
by Praveena, the other role is yet
to be taken.
News
has it that Trisha and Shreya are eyeing the hot
spot and are in constant contact with the crew.
Shreya stands a better chance this time since
Trisha has already been roped in for Ajith’s
next Kreedom. However, Shreya’s market has
skyrocketed ever since she starred in Sivaji and
her paycheck is scraping the borders of Rs. 40
lakhs. Sources state that Shreya could lose the
opportunity if she shows no interest in slashing
her paycheck. The other contenders for the role
are Thamiraparani Banu and Reema Sen.
Billa’s shoots will commence from February.
The movie is produced by Ananda Suresh and directed
by Vishnu Vardhan.
