Shankar’s Ai, which has been in the making for a long time, is nearing completion. The crew is expected to wrap up the shoot with a song, which will feature Amy Jackson, in the city.

We hear that a lavish set for a whopping sum has been erected for the interesting number, said to be Amy’s introduction song in the film.

It looks like Shankar’s penchant for huge settings continues with Ai as well. A source close to the unit says, “A huge set designed like a sliced lemon at a cost of about 2 crore has been erected in a studio in the city. The team has been working on this set for more than a month. Amy will shoot for this song this week for about six days. The song will not feature Vikram but just Amy and Upen Patel. This is the only song pending in the film and with this shoot, the Ai crew will pack up.”

This isn’t the first time that Shankar has opted for a lavish set. In his earlier films like Sivaji, Indian and Mudhalvan, the director had opted for a royal backdrop in certain songs. We also learn that Vikram has completed his portions in the film and is currently on a vacation with his family abroad.
