The deal is almost locked and the final modalities are being worked out currently before the team makes the official announcement."
Ajay is currently busy with multiple films in the pipeline. While he is currently shooting for Amit Sharma's Maidaan, Ajay will also be making his debut in the Telugu film industry with SS Rajamouli's RRR. The actor also has Chanakya and Bhuj: The Pride of India on his plate.
Talking about Ajay's busy schedule, the source said, "The makers are chalking out a schedule, keeping Ajay's timelines in mind. They haven't locked the dates but that will also happen in the coming two weeks time."
