Kamal Hassan teams up with Walt Disney

Actor Kamal Haasan will now join hands with the Walt Disney Productions, who are expected to produce his forthcoming film 'Marma Yogi'.

Walt Disney Productions, which recently tied up with Yash Raj Films for a full-length animated feature film called 'Roadside Romeo', wants to expand its operations across the country. So they have decided to start a venture with the versatile actor cum filmmaker.

The Kamal-Walt Disney venture will be co-produced by Bharath Bala, who produced A. R. Rahman's patriotic music video Vande Mataram. 'Marma Yogi' will also bring Kamal and Rahman together after a long gap.

'Marma Yogi' will be a period film, set in the seventh century, which will have erstwhile Bollywood heartthrob Hema Malini.

Kamal and Hema Malini had earlier teamed up in 'Hey Ram'. Asin, the heroine of 'Dasavadharam', will play a key role. The film will probably be directed by Kamal Haasan.

'Marma Yogi' is said to be one of the costliest films ever made in India with a budget of Rs. 90 crore. Kamal will shortly go to the US to discuss the production of this film, which is slated to be shot in Thailand. The shooting might get started by February.
