At a time when many are of the idea that Goutham Vasudev Menon is busy with the preparatory work for the landmark 50th movie of Ajith, the filmmaker has cleared the air saying his next will not be an Ajit-starrer but a thriller starring newcomer Veera and Sameera Reddy in lead roles.

“It will be a quickie and a low budget thriller that will be over in 90 minutes. It's about the happenings in one particular night. Sameera and Veera will be the protagonists in the film. After completing this film, I will start the project with Ajit. It will be an wholesome commercial film catering to the taste of Ajit’s fans and regular movie-goers.”

Goutham, basking in the success of 'Vinnaithandi Varuvaya' and in particular delighted with a 3-page appreciation letter of the film received from veteran director K. Balachander, assures that the audience would get to see a 'different' Ajith in his film. He would sport a different look and would be admired by one and all, says Menon.

On the success of 'VTV', he says, “I had a little hesitation when I penned the script. There was some doubt in my mind as to whether audience would accept a full-length romantic film. Once the movie released and I started getting feedbacks, I felt overwhelmed by the response.”
