Chennai: Indian actress Kajal Aggarwal has been finalised as the leading lady in megastar Chiranjeevi's yet-untitled upcoming Telugu film, a remake of Tamil hit, "Kaththi".

"Until last week she was only under consideration, but she was finally signed on last evening. She's really excited to be part of the project as it happens to be a very prestigious project," a source told IANS.

Despite three back-to-back flops this year, Kajal has managed to bag Ajith's yet-untitled Tamil film and Chiranjeevi's project.

Teaming up with Chiranjeevi for the first time, Kajal will be seen reprising actor Samantha's role from the original.

Being directed by V.V. Vinayak, the project is being produced by Ram Charan under Konidela Productions banner.
