Director Chidambaram, who has been basking in the success of his blockbuster directorial Manjummel Boys, has become the toast of Kollywood. As the director’s film continues to soar high at the box office, Chidambaram has reportedly signed a project with a Tamil cinema biggie. According to the latest reports, Chidambaram is all set to direct Vikram’s Chiyaan 63! Yes, that’s right! 

The director and the Thangalaan actor have been reportedly in talks to do a project and now hopefully might join hands for the project. If everything falls in place, the actor might begin shooting for the film once he wraps up his current film with SU Arun Kumar, Chiyaan 62. Notably, Vikram has been keen on doing projects with newbies, hence this collaboration is something we are all waiting for! Although reports about the new collaboration have been all over the internet, an official announcement about the same is awaited.
