Looks like the sorrows of Telugu-Tamil Star Hero Karthi are still continuing. Gaining early success with back to back hits inclusive of 'Siruthai' in Tamil, there were lot of expectations on this hero to grow in stature like his elder brother Suriya. However, Karthi is now on the backfoot with 'Sakuni' and 'Alex Pandiyan' failing at Box Office. Reports say that Karthi has become more cautious in selecting the scripts and directors now.
Accordingly, 'Biryani' is the project which is on sets as of now in the direction of Venkat Prabhu of 'Mankatha' (in Telugu 'Gambler') fame. Venkat has taken 70 days of call sheets from Karthi but wasted nearly 30 days for shooting of comedy portions on his brother Premgi Amaren. Irked by this,producer Gnanavel Raja has canceled the project schedules indefinitely. Hansika is the heroine besides Karthi in 'Biryani' and the Telugu version of 'Alex Pandiyan' that is 'Bad Boy' is slated to release on 22nd of this month.
