We had told you earlier Sunny Leone will make her Tamil debut as a heroine in Vadivudaiyan's film. Now, the makers have titled the project Veeramadevi

The filmmaker says, "Veeramadevi was a popular warrior who lived in the south decades ago. Sunny, who has given us a call sheet for 150 days, is getting trained in martial arts, swordfighting and horse riding by a trainer from Mumbai. We'll start shooting in January. For the subsequent schedules, we will be constructing grand sets."

This film, which is said to have 70 minutes of CG work, will get released in five languages -- Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi. Vadivudaiyan adds, "Sunny is quite excited about the film as she has never played a warrior before. She's seen as a strong, independent woman in the film, and that's one of the reasons why she signed up." Asked if the film will be like Baahubali, he says, "I don't think it's fair to even compare the two."

Veeramadevi, produced by Ponse Stephen, has Navdeep playing the role of the antagonist.
