Latest update on Kollywood circle. Ajith Kumar forthcoming Tamil film will be produced by Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan.

Recently Ajith Kumar signed upcoming movie under the direction of Siva in which gorgeous actress Kajal Aggarwal will play the female lead role and it is marked as AK 57, and will be bankrolled by AM Rathnam.

As per source, interestingly, the buzz says that Amitabh Bachchan will be producing the film on his home banner of ABCL. It may be recalled that Big B had earlier bankrolled Ajith and Vikram’s Tamil film “Ullaasam.” Hence, the latest development of Big B producing the film has not come as a surprise to many. The Bollywood megastar’s first venture in Tamil had bombed at the box office. Now Thala signed his next upcoming movie AK 58 with Amitabh Bachchan Corporation. Talented filmmaker Atlee, who is basking in the glory of successful movie “Theri” starring Vijay, is going to helm this megaphone.

Meanwhile, Thala’s next movie is all set to start shooting by the end of this month. It is reported that the first schedule will commence in Bulgaria. The movie was launched last week with a simple pooja at the producer’s office.
