No dual role for Nagaraja Cholan MA, MLA

Southern director Manivannan is set to make a comeback after 11 years with 'Nagaraja Cholan MA, MLA', a sequel to his 1994 political drama 'Amaidhi Padai'. The combo of Manivannan and Sathyaraj took a comical dig at many political happenings in 'Amaidhi Padai'.
The 1994 film revolves around a poor man, who goes on to build a political career. Satyaraj did a dual role as father and son in the original.Now that they are coming together for its sequel, they are all set to repeat the act.
Titled Nagaraja Cholan MA, MLA, the film has Allakai Ammavasai from Amaidhi Padai as the central character. The film deals about his transformation as Nagaraja Cholan and his political career.
Amaidhi Padai had Satyaraj playing a double role, that of the son and father. But the upcoming sequel, which also stars Satyaraj, doesn't offer him the double role. The son's role has been scrapped out from the script, and a role of a lorry driver, who becomes an MLA has been added, it seems.
The project will be produced by S Ravichandran and K Suresh under V House Productions. 'Amaidhi Padai' was also remade in Telugu and Hindi as 'M Dharmaraju MA' and 'Jallaad' respectively.
