Dec 20, 2011 PGV

Anjali of 'Angadi Theru' and 'Engaeyum Eppothum' fame is the third heroine in Vikram-starrer 'Karikalan'. The first heroine is Zareena Khan from Bollywood and the second is Mithra Kurien of 'Kaavalan' fame.

Director Kannan has selected Anjali for the role of a bold and brave girl after a photo shoot and look test. Without revealing much about her character, she said she would play a warrior who leads a set of people. The role requires her to fight using some ancient techniques involving sword fighting and horse riding.

Zareena Khan who plays the lead is said to have completed her part of shooting in Chennai.. 'Karikalan' is her first Tamil film. Though she was recuperating after she underwent surgery for appendicitis in Mumbai, she flew down to Chennai in November and participated in the shooting for a fortnight. According to unit sources, Zareena's schedule was important and her sticking to the dates relieved them of anxiety. Any change in Zareena's schedule would have upset the plans, they said.

Vikram plays a warrior king in the film. The buzz is that the film is set in three different periods in the history of Tamil Nadu and will have some mind-boggling graphic and visual effects. Click the Movie button below for more info:
