Simbu’s Telugu lead is still only talk

Silambarasan has been a Tamil star long enough that a Telugu lead still sounds like a border crossing.

The crossing already has a producer and a director in the telling. Sithara Entertainments. Keerthiswaran, who made Dude. A film in Telugu and Tamil, with the Telugu version treated as the introduction, not a dub dropped in later. November is the month attached to the shoot. It is an odd detail to invent, and an easy one to move.

Sithara does not whisper a first film for a star from the next state and then go quiet. The quiet is the story. STR as a Telugu lead, under that banner, is the version Hyderabad is already repeating. The banner has not repeated it.
