The pooja ceremony of Thala 57 took place in Chennai recently and director Siva is all gearing up for his third association with Ajith. Tentatively titled AK 57, the first schedule will kickstart in Bulgaria and the film will be shot across exotic locations in Europe. Ajith is likely to join the Bulgaria schedule in August. The latest buzz is that the team has approached Kamal Haasan's younger scion Akshara to play an important role. We hear that Akshara will be playing a role similar to Lakshmi Menon's in Vedalam.

Touted to be a spy thriller, Kajal plays the leading lady and Anirudh is the music director.
