A little bird told that the versatile actor Mohanlal may do a Kannada film soon.

He was allegedly approached for a lead role in Ravi Srivatsa's next venture which is said to be a political satire.

Ready for another surprise?   The superstar is said to be cast opposite south actress Namitha in this film.

Mohanlal has been part of just one Kannada film through his career. The 2004 film Love, which starred debutant Aditya and the then reigning queen Rakshita, saw the Mollywood star play a taxi driver in Dubai — wherein he helps the lead pair get together.

Mohanlal is currently in London watching the ongoing Olympics.

 Kannada filmmaker Munirathna tells, "I hope to be able to cast the star in this film, but the deal is not finalised as of now. I will be able to confirm the cast only after 20 days."

Guessed it right?  Yes, Mohanlal is expected to return from London after 20 days
