A recent report of R. Madhavan’s entry into the Lokesh Cinematic Universe has created headlines. A source stated that he has been chosen to portray the antagonist in a new installment, Benz, which will be helmed by Bakkiyaraj Kannan.
While Madhavan’s inclusion into the successful franchise led to a lot of excitement among fans, the actor has now confirmed on social media that the news is not true.
Madhavan shared a statement on X, saying that it was news to him. He further stated that although the news sounds exciting and he would like to be a part of the franchise, he added that he had no idea about his casting.
Even if the news turned out to be false, Madhavan’s casting in LCU would easily contribute to the success of any particular installment. Madhavan has already left an impression with his negative character in Shaitaan earlier this year.
LCU has mostly gained recognition for its villains. The antagonists have always helped to bring more audiences to the big screen.
The last installment featured Sanjay Dutt and fans are eagerly waiting to witness Surya appearing as Rolex for another time on the big screen after Vikram.
Notably, Lokesh Kanagaraj, who created the franchise, has not responded to reports of Madhavan’s casting. But it seems like Lokesh can cast Madhavan considering that a few more installments are already being planned.
