Kamal, unfortunately, rejected the script as as he felt it would portrait him as a womanizer.

In 1999, KS Ravikumar narrated 2 scripts to Kamal. While the first script was about a feminine hero, which would have him play 3 roles, the 2nd was a full length comedy #Valimai

Kamal was impressed and wanted to do both but he couldn't allot dates bcoz he was working in Hey Ram

The Comedy script later became thenali. But kamal was unable to do God father
