After working with Sudeep in "Rakta Charitra", Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi has become such a big fan of the Kannada actor that he has agreed to attend the audio release function of his forthcoming venture "Just Maath Maathalli" as a chief guest.
"I found Sudeep to be a profound actor and I think many of us should learn from the intensity he displays while doing his roles. I think if ever I want to do Kannada films, I just need to approach Sudeep and ask him for a good role," said Vivek.
Apart from wielding the megaphone for "Just Maath Maathalli", Sudeep also stars in it along with Ramya.
The release function will be held Dec 14 here and other celebs like Malayalam film star Mohanlal, Tamil star Silambarasan and Telugu star Jagapathi Babu are also expected to attend it.
"Vivek was very happy to be part of this function. He was here recently on a personal visit when I invited him to the function. He was very happy to be part of this big function," says Shankare Gowda, the producer of the film.
Incidentally, Sudeep is set to direct the Hindi version of "Just Maath Maathalli" and he is considering John Abraham or Shahid Kapoor to play the main lead. For the female lead, he is trying to rope in Asin Thottumkal or Deepika Padukone.
Ramesh Taurani, who had recently made the hugely successful "Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani", may produce the Hindi version.
