Actor Ajith Kumar’s Tamil blockbuster Viswasam, which released earlier this year for Pongal festival, is all set to be remade in Kannada. Superstar Shivrajkumar is in talks to star in the remake which is most likely to go on the floors from November. According to a report by Silverscreen, Shivrajkumar has confirmed initiating talks with the producers of Viswasam.

“Talks are on and I will be confirming it in two to three days. I’ve spoken to the producers and it is very likely to be finalised. Shoot may begin in November or December this year. I liked Ajith’s performance in Viswasam. There’s a lovely sentiment and it’s an emotional family drama. The Kannada audience will definitely enjoy the film.”

Shivrajkumar, who has over 100 films to his credit, currently awaits the release of Kannada action-drama Rustum, starring Shraddha Srinath and Vivek Oberoi. He also has films such as SRK, Drona and Anand in the pipeline.

Interestingly, Viswasam was dubbed and released in Kannada as Jaga Malla just last month. The film was not received well unlike Ajith’s previous releases like Vivegam.
