Major Ravi is directing Kandahar, a film based on the Indian flight hijack that took place a few years ago. He has already roped in Amitabh Bachchan and Mohanlal to star in this film. There were reports that the director is planning to cast a prominent actor from the Tamil film industry. While it was said that Kamal Haasan could be the one, it has now turned out that he has opted out of Kandahar. The latest buzz we hear is that Suriya could get the opportunity to share the screen space with the two leading stars - Amitabh Bachchan and Mohanlal - in India. The actor may play the role of a commando, we hear.
