Actor Sivakarthikeyan and "Saala Khadoos" director Sudha Kongara are reportedly in talks for a yet-untitled Tamil project.

"They have just initiated talks and it's too early to even say certainly that they will be working together. We should get some clarity in a couple of months," a source told IANS.

Producer A.M. Rathnam, who had announced his interest to work with Sivakarthikeyan, will be bankrolling the project.

While Sivakarthikeyan was unavailable for comment, a source close to the actor said: "He has already committed to three projects which are currently in different stages of production. Even if he plans to work with Sudha, it might take time."

Sivakarthikeyan is currently shooting for Mohan Raja's Tamil directorial "Velaikkaran".

Kongara, meanwhile, is wrapping up Telugu boxing-drama "Guru", a remake of her own film "Saala Khadoos".
