Deepika Padukone's ex boyfriend and an aspiring actor, Nihar Pandya will be launched in film directed by Dhanush's elder brother, Selvaraghavan.

Nihar had been in a live-in relationship with Deepika. Nihar featured in recent Hollywood production, Marigold, but the role was just a friendly appearance.

Selva is all set to remake of a tamil film in Hindi named, Kaadhan Kondein. The hindi adaptation is written by Krish, who directed 'Gabbar'.

A source said, Selvaraghavan didn't want to repeat the leading man in the remake. He will certainly work with Dhanush later. But he's making his Hindi debut with Nihar Pandya in the lead.
