The poster for Nanban -- the Tamil version of 3 Idiots -- is out.

It has been directed by Shankar, whose previous film was the Rajnikanth blockbuster Enthiran. This is the first time Shankar is directing a remake.

The shooting of the film is over. It will be the biggest Pongal treat for the Tamil audience.

The film stars Vijay (playing Aamir Khan's role), Jiiva (Sharman Joshi) and Srikkanth (Madhavan's role) and Ileana.

After conquering Diwali with his commercial masala, Velayudham, Vijay is all set to conquer Pongal as well to be the undisputed box office king.

Music is by Harris Jayaraj.
