A Kolkata-based national daily is said to have revealed the roles played by the duo.
There were earlier speculations that the actor will play the role of a taxi driver in "Thala 56". So, the news has not come as a surprise for many. But it is Shruti Haasan's lawyer role, which has come out as an interesting piece of news. A picture of her wearing a lawyer's outfit, which has become public, adds strength to the rumour.
