'Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kaadhal': It's Nayanthara vs Samantha Akkineni for Vijay Sethupathi in this love triangle

About three years back, filmmaker Vignesh Shivan had announced that he will be making a film with Vijay Sethupathi in the leading role. Titled Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kaadhal, the flick is touted to be a love story. Then it was reported that Lady Superstar Nayanthara, who is also Vignesh's lady love has been roped in to play the female lead. It was also being said that Trisha might play the second lead. But now Samantha Akkineni has been finalised to play one of the leading actors alongside Vijay and Nayanthara.

The Oh Baby actor took to her Instagram page and shared a short promo which hints at Nayanthara and Samantha getting pitted against each other and Vijay sandwiched between them. She posted the video with a caption, "And I am super happy to present #kaathuvaakulaRenduKaadhal #KRK .... the best team anyone could ask for #Nayantara @actorvijaysethupathi @wikkiofficial @anirudhofficial"
