Buzz is doing rounds that the story of Shankar's I revolves around the political pressures faced by Indian athletes at the Olympics. The director has been trying to keep the story of the movie a secret, so the official confirmation is still awaited.
While Vikram and Amy Jackson play the lead roles, the others who are a part of the movie are Santhana,, Suresh Gopi and Sivaji Ganesan's elder son, Ramkumar. A little birdie tells us that the character of Vikram in the movie is into body building to impress his girlfriend, Amy Jackson. Eventually, this body gets him as far as Olympics. Vikram, who always gets drowned in the character he plays, is training his body to meet the demands of the character. A.R. Rahman has composed the music for I.
