Ajith's 'Billa 2', directed by Chakri Toleti, will go on the floors very soon. To be produced by Wide Angle Creations' Suresh Balaji and George Pious, the movie will be a prequel to 'Billa'. Says Chakri, " 'Billa 2' would focus on how David, an ordinary man from coastal Thoothukudi in South Tamilnadu, becomes Billa, a dreaded underworld don".

Popular model Huma Qureshi will play the female lead. Sudhanshu Pandey and Vimala Raman will do cameo appearances. Yuvan Shankar Raja, a part of the original 'Billa', is the music director. Ajith seems to have shed some weight and looks trim and fit for the movie. The actor has completed shooting for his 50th film 'Mankatha', directed by Venkat Prabhu. Trisha plays the heroine.
