Kamal walks out of ‘19th Step’


Kamal Haasan, who had recently announced that his project after ‘Unnaipol Oruvan’ would be ‘19th Step’ in which he plays a martial arts teacher, has backed out of the project. The film, which will be directed by Bharat Bala, has Japanese actor Tadanobu Asano in the lead. He will be paired with Asin in the film. The film is being produced by Walt Disney and will have music by AR Rahman.
Kamal Haasan’s was originally slated to be an extended guest appearance, and he was expected to begin work on it after shooting for ‘Unnaipol Oruvan’. It, however, is learnt that Kamal Haasan had wanted a few changes to be effected in the script, which did not work well with the producers. Due to this, the actor has now backed out of the project.
There were talks earlier that the production house, Walt Disney, had planned on producing an Rs 120 crore mega flick with Kamal in the lead, but the actor later denied it himself. There were also initial suggestions that ‘Marmayogi’ would be produced by them
