Simbu and director S.J. Surya are good friends. Simbu will be working under Surya in A/C. But, he participates in several discussion sessions with S.J. Surya for the latter’s films. He had come in during some sittings for Puli’s story discussion. Puli has Vijay in the lead. It is reported that Vijay has requested S.J. Surya that Simbu should not come in for Puli.

The reason? Puli and A/C are being made and released simultaneously. Therefore, each should be different and there should be no influence of each on other. Or is it a case of professional rivalry? Um..um..um..no prizes for guessing.
