Sampath to cross swords with Ajith

The big news for the Vikram-look-alike Sampath is that he is all set to cross swords with the `Thala.' Grapevine has it that Ajith was keen on having Sampath as part of the bad men gang in Asal. The main villain in the film is Suresh.

Sampath made a striking impact in Chennai 28 and followed it up with the super hit Saroja. His dancing skills were also to the fore with Nikita for cool company in the same film.

Due to leave for Paris soon, Sampath is determined to live up to the expectations of Ajith.
