Vikram Prabhu will team up with the Engeyum Eppothum director Saravanan. The director had announced a project with Arya in the lead some months ago and this film was to be produced by Thirupati Brothers. But Arya walked out of this project due to his busy schedules and the production house tried to rope in Vishal instead. However, this effort also fizzled out with Vishal signing up Sundar C's MGR.

Following these developments, Saravanan's film was put on hold. But the latest buzz in Kollywood is that the director will be teaming up with Vikram Prabhu after completing Kumki. Thirupati Brothers, which is producing Kumki, will be producing this venture as well.
