According to sources from the industry, after honing Karthi in Madras, Pa. Ranjith is set to partner Suriya, who is currently busy with Super Star's Kabali. 

The actor approached him after being impressed with Madras starring his brother Karthi. The project was put on hold, after Ranjith began working on Kabali.

Ranjith recently met Suriya who asked him to prepare a script. The pre-production will start soon after the release of 'Kabali'.

Sources told TNM that the movie will not be a romantic flick but an action-drama. Pa. Ranjith is in the spotlight post the tremendous response to the Kabali Teaser.

Suriya's recently released sci-fi thriller 24 performed exceedingly well at the box office. It was a much wanted break for the actor after a series of mediocre films in the past few years.

Suriya reportedly took a month-long break and headed to the U.S. for a family holiday before joining the Singam 3 team for its Malaysian schedule.
