Sridevi not in Drishyam

Refuting rumours that Bollywood actress Sridevi will be seen essaying an important role in yet-untitled Tamil remake of “Drishyam”, its director Jeetu Joseph has rubbished rumours and clarified that she’s not part of the project.

“We haven’t finalized the casting yet and Sridevi is not part of the project. As soon we finalize our cast, we’ll make the official announcement. For now, only Kamal Haasan is part of the project and Asha Sharath from the original version may join us as well,” Jeetu said recently. Jeetu, who helmed the original, will also direct the Tamil version of the eponymous Malayalam blockbuster.

The regular shooting of the film is expected to start soon. “Drishyam”, which was recently remade in Telugu as well as Kannada, have turned out to be successful at the box-office.
