Is Mani Ratnam planning a spy thriller?

Mani Ratnam will go on floors with his next in May and is now busy with the pre production work. The director has almost finalised on his star cast but there are some hitches in procuring the call sheet of some of the lead stars and this will be sorted out shortly, say sources.

Meanwhile, we have the news that Mani Ratnam is planning to make a spy thriller that will have the audiences on the edge of their seats. Nagarajuna is touted to play a don in this film. It is still unclear if Mahesh Babu will get onboard this project as he is busy with his other acting assignments, say sources.
