Aakansha to act with H Vasu

It’s going to be remade as Punda. Talking about the movie, which will be produced by Kuppuswamy, director H Vasu says, “Polladhavan is a universal subject and we chose Yogi because he’s apt for the film.” Was Yogi selected because he’s often compared to Dhanush? “I’ve heard that they share a lot of similarities. But we chose the young actor because, like the character, he’s also also crazy about motorbikes. That apart, his dates were readily available,” explains Vasu.

Ramya, aka Divya Spandana, who starred opposite Dhanush in the original, reportedly didn’t fit the bill for the remake. Vasu says, “Ramya was very keen to do the remake. In fact, she approached us for it. But we had to take the age factor into consideration. Ramya has starred opposite actors like Upendra and Darshan. She will look like 19-year-old Yogi’s akka if we were to cast her in the film.”
