Simbu directed 'Manmadhan' and won laurels for his work. Now he is all set for a repeat performance, with 'Kettavan', which is his long standing project.

Says Simbu, "I'm starting it next year, for sure. The cast and crew are yet to be finalized but just that I want to kick start the film. Music will be scored by Yuvanshankar Raja".

Throwing more light on the film, he says, "It is not 'Manmadhan 2' but it will fall under that style of filmmaking and will be made in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi simultaneously."

His 'Vosthi', a remake of 'Dabbang' is likely to hit screens during Deepavali, Simbu's other projects 'Poda Podi' and 'Vettai Mannan' too are nearing completion.
