Chennai, Feb 5 (IANS): Impressed by the trailer of director Manu Anand's upcoming Tamil film 'FIR', Indian all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin has complimented actor Vishnu Vishal, who has not only played the lead, but also produced the film.

"Amazing trailer! Can't wait to watch the movie buddy! As usual your script selection amazes me," Ashwin tweeted.

Vishnu, who himself played in the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) league before a leg injury ended his cricket career, responded to Ashwin's compliment by saying, "So sweet of you buddy… Definitely not more amazing than your bowling variations and your achievements."
