Santosh Sivan to direct Vijay?

 
Vijay seems to have developed a special rapport with ace cinematographer Santosh Sivan. 
 
The star is reportedly in awe with the cinematographer's skills in handling the camera and his sound knowledge in directing films.

It may be mentioned here that Santosh Sivan had directed the critically acclaimed Malayalam film Urumi which was also released in Tamil. Apart from Urumi, Santosh has several other films to his credit. Sources say that Vijay wants to work with Santosh Sivan and has asked him to get a story ready for him. It is said that Santosh may have an offbeat film for Vijay.

The project may start rolling only after Thuppaki is safely wrapped up and ready for release.
