Vijay Sethupathi, who made his Telugu debut with Chiranjeevi-starrer Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy, has been busy since. His performance in Uppena was also widely appreciated and he has been getting a lot of offers from Telugu filmmakers for negative characters. 

According to a well-placed source, Vijay Sethupathi has been approached to play the antagonist in Pawan Kalyan's new film Bhavadeeyudu Bhagat Singh. Directed by Harish Shankar, the film is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers. 

"Harish has initiated talks with Vijay and the latter is keen to be a part of the film provided his call sheets wouldn't clash with this film. A clearer picture will emerge sometime soon," says a source close to the development.

Bhavadeeyudu Bhagat Singh brings Pawan Kalyan and Harish Shankar together for the second time after Gabbar Singh. The film has music by Devi Sri Prasad and the composer has already recorded two songs. The film is expected to go on floors in summer soon after Pawan Kalyan wraps up Hari Hara Veera Mallu. 

Vijay Sethupathi, on the other hand, is busy working in multiple films, including VJS 46, Viduthalai, Vikram, Gandhi Talks, Mumbaikar and Merry Christmas.
