Actress Nithya Menon has reportedly joined hands with filmmaker Mani Ratnam for the second time in a row in his upcoming yet-untitled Tamil revenge drama, which is expected to go on the floors this December.

"Nithya has given her consent to be a part of the film. The makers plan to officially announce the entire cast in a week's time," a source from the film's unit told.

The film already features an ensemble cast of Karthi, Dulquer Salmaan and Keerthy Suresh.

In the film, Karthi and Dulquer will be pitted against each other.

Double Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman will compose the tunes, while Ravi Varman will crank the camera.

Nithya didn't respond when contacted.
