Maria Ryaboshapka joins Sivakarthikeyan's next

We had previously speculated that Ukrainian model and actor Maria Ryaboshapka will be making her Tamil debut with Sivakarthikeyan's upcoming film.

The makers of the film, tentatively titled SK 20, have now confirmed her addition to the cast list. The Twitter account of Sree Venkateswara Cinemas LLP announced the news and confirmed that Ryaboshapka will be playing the female lead. Sivakarthikeyan retweeted the tweet and welcomed the actor who was recently seen in Special Ops 1.5: The Himmat Story.

Directed by Jathi Ratnalu-fame Anudeep KV, SK 20 is a Tamil-Telugu bilingual. The film went on floors last month in Karaikudi. Co-produced by Suresh Productions, the film will have music by Thaman.

Meanwhile, Sivakarthikeyan has multiple films in the pipeline. His next release will be Don, co-starring Priyanka Mohan and directed by Cibi Chakravarthy. He also has the long-awaited Ayalaan, directed by R Ravi Kumar, gearing up for release. It was also announced recently that he will be joining forces with Rangoon director Rajkumar Periasamy for a yet-to-be-titled project produced by Kamal Haasan.
