Asin, who shot into popularity with the film "Ghajini", made in Tamil and then in Hindi, is now aiming to scale even greater heights in the multi-lingual film "19 Steps" to be directed by Bharath Bala.
"The film is being produced by Walt Disney and a good portion will be shot in Kerala. Kamal Haasan plays an important role in the film, which also has popular Japanese actor Tadanobu Asano. This is going to be made in Tamil, Japanese and English and would commence in the second half of this year," Asin told reporters here Sunday.
"For '19 Steps', I am now soon going to learn martial arts because the story line demands that," said Asin.
This film, being written by veteran Malayalam scriptwriter, M.T.Vasudevan Nair, tells the tale of a Samurai warrior trying to conquer the ancient Indian martial art of Kalaripayattu.
Kamal Haasan plays the role of an Indian martial arts guru.
