Kochi: Former India pacer S Sreesanth is all&nbsp;set to play the role of a hero in a big budget movie to be&nbsp;made simultaneously in Telugu, Malayalam and Tamil.&nbsp;
The movie, to be directed by renowned filmmaker Sana&nbsp;Yadireddy, tells a spicy story of a cricketer and IPL.
"The film will go on floors in September and we are&nbsp;planning to wrap it up in six months," Yadireddy said here&nbsp;announcing the details of the film.&nbsp;The film will be dubbed into 14 Indian languages, he&nbsp;said.

Sreesanth, who is playing a negative role in Pooja Bhatt's Bollywood film "Cabaret", said he decided to accept roles in&nbsp;movies as he wanted to "explore another side of life".
"This is my debut film in South and I am going to work&nbsp;with a big filmmaker like Sana Yadireddy. I can't ask for&nbsp;more. I am looking forward for a good acting career in&nbsp;South," Sreesanth said.
Yadireddy said Sreesanth is not only a good cricketer,&nbsp;but he is a superb dancer and actor.
"I have seen him performing at many events and always&nbsp;wanted to work with him. When we narrated the story, he liked&nbsp;it very much and gave his nod immediately. The film will be in&nbsp;the backdrop of cricket and has a very good love story in it,"&nbsp;he said.
When asked about the BCCI still sticking on its decision&nbsp;to ban him from playing cricket, Sreesanth said, "I will wait"&nbsp;till the apex cricket body in the country takes a favourable&nbsp;decision.
The cricketer was discharged in the 2013 IPL spot-fixing&nbsp;case by a Delhi Court last month.
Sreesanth said primarily he is a cricketer and he wanted&nbsp;to restart his cricket career from the scratch once BCCI lift&nbsp;ban imposed on him.&nbsp;
