The proposed film to be directed by Myshkin starring Kamal Haasan in the lead has run into rough weather even before it started. Myshkin had earlier discussed with Kamal in detail about his willingness to remake the Hollywood blockbuster 'Living World' in Tamil. It is also said that Kamal had consented to play the lead role in the film.
Myshkin's script is said to have been inundated with 'political overtones' criticizing the modern political trend and this appears to have put Kamal Haasan off. After giving it a deep thought and reportedly discussing the pros and cons of being part of such a 'political' film, especially in the 50th anniversary year of his entry into films, Kamal had reportedly decided to opt out of the project on his own.
After Kamal rang up Myshkin to convey his decision of opting out of the project, Myahkin has become very upset. To do a film with Kamal Haasan, Myshkin had earlier refused to do a film with director-actor Cheran. As such, Myshkin seems to have been caught in a not so enviable situation as he now can't hope to get back to either Kamal or Cheran.
"It'd be better if you could conceive a story of your own without making a story 'based on' some hit project. If such a script excites me, we would no doubt work together in future" is what Kamal's advice-cum-statement to Myshkin. Following this, Myshkin is said to be burning a lot of midnight oil in putting together an exciting script to thrill 'Ulaganayagan'. So, the much awaited Kamal-Myshkin might still prove to be a reality!
