VIJAY WAS NOT CONSIDERED

Kollywood is buzzing with news that Vijay is being considered for the lead role in Pagalavan. Apparently, director Seeman and producer Kalaipuli S Dhanu discussed about this project and are doing the groundwork. Enquiries in Kollywood revealed that it is true that there has been a discussion on this venture, but neither the producer nor the director discussed on the lead actor. Both of them have stated that once the project is finalized they will make an official announcement as to who the lead actor is. They clarified that they have never considered Vijay but did not rule out the possibility of signing him up as the hero.

Problems Solved "Vijay"

According to news reaching us the issue between theatre owners and Vijay is amicably resolved. A settlement was reached with some last minute negotiations involving Nadigar Sangam also.

There was disenchantment between the actor and theatre owners after the theatre owners association raised a revolt against Vijay saying they had incurred heavy loses by screening successive Vijay films and so the actor was asked to compensate the loses in some ways.

As per the negotiations and agreement Vijay will take over the film ‘Kaavalkaran’ as a first copy basis and release it after settling the mutually accepted loses. And more the new film will be released in theaters which incurred losses screening Vijay films on priority.

‘Kaavalkaran’ is a remake of Malayalam hit ‘Bodyguard’. It also makes the return of Asin to Kollywood. The film is expected to be released in August.

Shankar to direct Ilayathalapathy Vijay

 It’s well known by now that Vijay has been roped in to play Aamir Khan’s role in the 3 Idiots remake by Gemini Film Circuit. Now the latest news is that top Kollywood director Shankar may be directing the remake.

One hears from sources that the producers after considering several filmmakers from Tamil and Tollywood, have managed to convince Shankar to helm the project.

Quite a feat, since Shankar is one director who prefers to tackle new themes with a commercial touch and has never attempted a remake in his 17-year career. But then convictions change.

Even veteran K. Balachandar, who insisted on an original script, later relaxed his policy and remade the Bollywood flick Golmaal, named Thillu Mullu, with superstar Rajinikanth in a double role. Similarly, Shankar might also give it a shot.

If he does, it’s sure to be a significant movie in Vijay’s career, since it’s been his long-cherished dream to act under Shankar’s direction. Maybe this tidbit from the past has something to do with it — Shankar was a former associate of Vijay’s father S.A. Chandrashekar in many films, including his mother Shoba Chandrashekar’s debut, Nanbargal.
