Kajol will essay Jyothika 's role while her husband Ajay Devgan will enact her husband's role on the reel too - a role that Prabhu did in the Tamil version.
The film, shooting for which will start as soon as Big B is back in operation, will be directed by P. Vasu, who wielded the megaphone in ‘Chandramukhi’.
