“English Vinglish” actress Sridevi will return in a Tamil action-adventure, “Puli,” co-starring Vijay. Director Shibu Thameens said, “Everyone in the South wants her back, she's really popular here. She heard the script and thought it was the right subject for her return. She's looking beautiful and younger than the other two actresses, Shruti Haasan and Hansika Motwane as you'll see in the teaser.” He dismisses rumours of her playing a queen in the drama. “No, and it's not a period drama or a contemporary film. It's an action-adventure on the lines of Russell Crowe's “The Gladiator.” She is the head of a group, someone with unbelievable strength and powers and has a lot of action scenes.”
