Grammy-winning composer A R Rahman called him the 'selfless jewel of India'. Actor Vivek whose presence was ubiquitous in Tamil cinema passed away in a hurry breaking many hearts. The actor who once ruled the comedy fiefdom had one last wish that was hitherto left unfulfilled— act with universal star Kamal Hassan.
Iconic director Shankar made fruitful Vivek's wish after giving him a role in the sequel of the 1996 smash hit 'Indian'. However, the sudden demise of Vivek without completing his portions in the movie got the maker in a fix, as talks went ahead about Shankar taking another actor from Mollywood to supersede the late actors part. And now, Shankar himself has confirmed that the role enacted by Vivek will be kept intact in the movie. The dubbing is a worry but the makers are hesitant to ward off the role that the late actor cherished for a long. Kajal Agarwal plays the female lead in the movie. Indian back in 1996 gave kamal Hassan his third national award for best actor.
