Ileana joins 3 Idiots sets in Coimbatore

Slim beauty Ileana has joined the sets of ace director Shankar's Tamil-Telugu remakes of super hit Bollywood film 3 Idiots on Monday (January 31). The actress flew down to Coimbatore from Hyderabad and is currently canning the wedding scenes in the film. Ileana is reprising Kareena Kapoor's role in the original.

Ending all speculations about the Tamil title of 3 Idiots, Gemini Film Circuit recently announced the Tamil title as Nanban. The Telugu title is 3 Rascals. The announcement also confirmed Vijay, Srikanth and Jiiva as the three leads in the movie.

Vijay will appear as the unorthodox genius Rancchod Das (played by Aamir Khan), while Jiiva and Srikanth will appear as the naïve Farhan Qureshi and Raju Rastogi (played by Madhavan and Sharman Joshi respectively). Sathyaraj appears as the insensitive professor Virus (played by Boman Irani).
