Shankar is now wielding megaphone for Vikram's next flick "I". Amy Jackson is playing the female lead and ace music director A.R.Rahman is composing the tunes for this film.

Shankar who is known for his extravagance leaves no stone unturned to capture the perfect imagery for his movies. Shankar has never been one who has been perturbed by size, location or budgets. For 'I', Shankar had scouted for some spectacular locations in China and also completed shooting some portions there in his first schedule.

But all was not roses for Shankar as he couldn't gain access to some parts of China where he planned the shoot. Despite making numerous efforts his request was declined by the local authorities. So director Shankar planned to recreate those parts of China across 150 acres in Kodaikanal to shoot those portions.

"I" is anticipated to be another high budget movie in Indian cinema with highly technical crew. Santhanam and Suresh Gopi are playing the prominent roles. Cinematography is handled by P.C.Sriram and Venu Ravichandran is producing this movie under Aascar films.
