He was quoted as saying by Galatta Media, “Thala Ajith is currently working on Valimai and I’m working on Maanaadu. Ajith sir has a practice that he follows strictly. He doesn’t commit another film before completing the ongoing one. Ajith sir only has to say if Mankatha 2 will happen and it is purely his decision. He will take a decision on his next project only when his current project is close to completion.”
