Siddharth in James Bond director's next film

Southern star Siddharth has bagged an exciting offer! He is all set to star in an English film, titled The First Class Man, to be directed by Roger Spottiswoode (of Tomorrow Never Dies fame). In the film Siddharth will play the role of genius Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. Interestingly Roger Spottiswoode was impressed with Siddharth's performance in Rang De Basanthi and decided to cast him in The First Class Man.

Siddharth is currently bust with Oh My Friend in Telugu, Deepa Mehta's onscreen adaptation of Salman Rushdie's novel 'Midnight's Children' and Kadhalil Sodhappuvadhu Eppadi in Tamil.
