After Rajinikanth in Kaala, Huma Qureshi is likely to be paired with Ajith in Valimai

Actress Huma Qureshi, who made her Tamil film debut via Rajinikanth’s Kaala (2018), is believed to have been roped in to play to Ajith’s co-star in his upcoming Tamil film Valimai (2020).

Apparently, Qureshi has already started shooting for the project in Chennai. She had tweeted a couple of days ago, “Really wanted to be part of the Umang Police Show tonight but had to be in Chennai for a shoot.”

It is safe to assume that she was in Chennai shooting for a film which is most likely to be Valimai, the second Tamil venture of producer Boney Kapoor.

Being directed by H Vinoth, who had recently helmed Nerkonda Paarvai (2019), the Tamil remake of Pink (2016); Valimai is tipped to be an action thriller. International stuntmen have been roped in to supervise the action sequences in the film.

Recently, Ajith was seen sporting a Zapata-style moustache and his avatar immediately went viral. It is rumoured to be his look for the film.

The rest of the cast and crew are yet to be officially announced, but it has already been confirmed that Yuvan Shankar Raja will compose the music while Nirav Shah is the cinematographer. At a recent award ceremony, Kapoor revealed that Ajith plays a cop in the film.

Nerkonda Paarvai starred Vidya Balan, Shraddha Srinath, Andrea Tariang and Abhirami Venkatachalam in crucial roles. It had music by Yuvan Shankar Raja.
