Vijay As a James Bond In YOHAN

Gautham Menon is busy completing the shooting of Nee Thanae En Ponvasantham starring Jeeva and Samantha. Soon he would start Yohan Athiyayam Ondru.


Throwing light on the movie, he says, ‘it is an interational film with a international theme. Vijay and I were planning to come together for a long time and it eventually worked out now’.


It would be a different film and Vijay plays an international agent. So impressed with the storyline that Rahman immediately composed tunes for the movie, he adds.


Asked about the title, he says, ‘ we titled it as Yohan Athiyayam Ondru for we have plans to start a sequel sometime later for it’.

Grand Opening For Velayudham...

The bumper opening for Velayudham has brought smiles in Vijay's face. The actor is elated and bubbling with enthusiasm.

Addressing media persons in Chennai on Friday, the actor said, 'I choose this occasion to thank my friends, fans and well-wishers who made this movie a bighit'.

Director M Raja and producer Aascar V Ravichandran deserve special mention. They have given life and Velayudham is sparkling thanks to them, he added.

The fact that more prints are now being ordered for the movie is a pointer to its success, he added.

On his part, director Raja, said 'doing a commercial film is no easy task. It has to have all mass elements at right mix. Velayudham is perfect entertainer and Vijay hogged all limelight and made my job easier'.

More Demand for Velayudham

In spite of other big releases, producer Aascar Ravichandran managed to get bigger and more screens across Tamil Nadu and other areas for his Diwali release ‘Velayutham’. Released on October 25, the film has lived up to the expectations of not just Vijay fans, but has attracted the family audiences.

With a longer weekend still going on, the theatre owners and exhibitors have demanded for additional prints of the film. Across the states of Kerala and Karnataka, the fans circle for Vijay has increased than the usual limits. The repeat audiences in Kerala are rushing into the theatres to watch it again and again.

Well, it’s worth mentioning that Kerala audiences have welcomed even his films like ‘Sura’ and ‘Velayutham’ has become a huge hit over there.

Ilayathalapathy Vijay has thanked his fans for extending their support and making the film successful.

The king of openings


The Velayudham star opens up on his plans for the `D' day

Though bookings for Vijay's Diwali r e l e a s e Velayudham started only on Sunday, tickets are sold out for the next five days -till the weekend; the Ilaya Thalapathy once again proving that he is the undisputed `King of Openings'! For the actor, Diwali means `watching plenty of films'. Vijay, in a freewheeling interview to DC says, “I will burst a lot of crackers with my son and go watch all the films released on Diwali day with my family. Right from childhood, that has been the practice in my household.

Earlier, there used to be seven to eight Diwali releases. My day would start with watching the noon show and then moving on to the next theater for the matinee show and then, to the evening show -it just went on! However, this time around, only three films -Velayudham, 7 Aum Arivu and Ra One are releasing, and I will watch all the flicks.“

Talking about Velayudham, he says that it is the culmination of his style and Jayam Raja's distinctive formula, produced by Aascar Ravichandran at a mammoth budget.

On teaming up with new-age directors Shankar, Murugadoss and Gautham Menon, he opined, “Honestly speaking, I got the opportunity only now! Earlier, I was just accepting scripts that came my way!“ He was quick to add, “Having completed Nanban, I felt that I missed working with Shankar all these days.“ Suriya started his career much later -alongside Vijay in Nerukku Ner. How does he feel about growing to a level that both their films are clashing on Diwali day? He gives his inimitable smile and says, “I wish the 7 Aum Arivu team all the very best as well as a big congrats to my team.“

What's Special About Velayudham Climax?

Vijay is super confident about his upcoming film ‘Velayudham’ in spite of having a strong competition with Suriya’s ‘Ezham Arivu’. The makers of ‘Velayudham’ have precisely mentioned that both the films are good and on the grounds of different genre.

The distributors and theatre owners have mentioned that the climax of Vijay’s ‘Velayudham’ is something unforeseen and one of the best climax scenes of Tamil films.

The film has already occupied the major screens of Tamil Nadu and is opening in around 150 theatres of Kerala and 100 theatres of Karnataka. The bookings for the film across UK and USA are happening well.

ALL IZZ WELL WITH NANBAN

Looks like Shankar is working hard towards releasing his Nanban for the next big festival, Pongal. After completing the last scene in the multi-starrer, the ace director wrote on his blog, “Nanban shooting is 100 per cent complete. Since Velayudham is releasing on Deepavali, Nanban will be for Pongal.” 

There were recent reports of Ileana’s tantrums on set while shooting for Farah Khan but looks like all izz well with the Nanban team. A source informs us, “The shooting was wrapped up five days ago, with a song featuring both Vijay and Ileana being the last one to be shot. It’s a melodious romantic duet, choreographed by Farah, and was shot in a studio in the city. Shankar will now concentrate on the post production work of the film and release it for Pongal.” 


A spokesperson of the production house that’s presenting Nanban, says, “I think Raju Hirani has done a brilliant job with 3 idiots. But after seeing the rushes of Nanban, I can say that Shankar has done an even better job. There’s a ‘Shankar touch’. He has made this film to suit the Tamil sensibilities, without altering the core of the story. We are looking to launch the audio, composed by Harris Jayaraj, by the end of November.”

Interview - Vijay Abt Velayudham

As ‘Velayudham’ is gearing up for a Diwali release and the team is running from pillar to post as part of the promotional activities, IG caught up with Ilayathalapathy Vijay for an interview. Read on as Vijay gets candid and speaks on his role in Velayudham, clarifies reports on the much talked about Dookudu remake, his project with AL Vijay, his plans this Diwali and a lot more!Excerpts from the chat with the ace personality…


Velayudham is special to you?

Yes, it is very special and  I accepted the film, as I liked the story very much and working with director Raja was a pleasure. My last release Kaavalan was a pure love story and now Velayudham has shaped out well as a sensible mass commercial film.



Why do you say sensible commercial film?

As reported by a section of the media, I don’t play a superhero nor do I possess any super power. I play an ordinary man who has a reason to take the cudgels and fight the system. Director Raja has made the transformation of my character with realism and that according to me is the highlight. I shared excellent rapport with Raja and all credit goes to him.



Why don’t you promote your films aggressively?

I hate to speak or praise my film before the release. I want my fans and audiences to go to the theatre without much expectation and get entertained. I hate to blow my own trumpet saying that my film will satisfy you and blah blah.. I have been getting a lot of positive feedback of the trailer and audio. Now after release, I’m sure that the visual impact of songs will satisfy the audiences.



Tell us about the two heroines?

Hansika and Genelia were excellent co-stars. Hansika has terrific comedy timing and realising that, Raja utilised it to the maximum. Genelia has a very important role of a journalist who motivates and brings about a transformation in me.



Your next films are all with top directors like Shankar, Gautham Menon and Murugadoss. Was that a conscious decision?

(Smiles) If I tell you the truth, I have been contacted by the so-called big directors only now. I didn’t plan anything. It just happened. Remember that I am an actor I do roles that are given to me. My job is to give the people a ticket to their very personal Disney Land for three hours.



You are working with Santhanam for the first time...

Yes, Santhanam has this unique quality of bringing a smile on everybody’s face when he appears on screen. He need not even open his mouth to crack jokes and no wonder women and children love him. We had a great chemistry on the sets.






How did this film with Jayam Raja happen?
and again. But this is your first part superhero project, what’s special
about it? What about the horse riding scenes?

I have watched all his films and I was supposed to work with him two years back itself under Sanguli Murugan sir’s banner. We missed out on it and he started off a project with his brother, Jayam Ravi. Then we met one day and he came with a one-liner on Velayudham which interested me so we started off with this project immediately. I asked him jokingly whether he will do movies only with his brother and not me and that’s how all this started off.
Yes but this is not a superhero film with extra powers for the hero
or something on those lines. 'Velayudham' portrays the hero somewhere between a common man and a superhero. Speaking
on horse riding, actually I learnt horse riding quite a while ago,
even before stepping into films. All the training is being of use to
me now (smiles).
Most of your films highlight upon brother – sister bonding, but can we
say your bond with Saranya forms the crux of this plot as she has reported
in an interview?
No it definitely is not the crux of the film but can be called as one
of the highlights in 'Velayudham'. No matter what, be it now or
after many years, this is one relationship among our folk that
will never change! It’s an evergreen something.
Speaking on stunts, are there other highlights apart from the train
stunt sequence?
Tom Delmar did the train sequence and yes, much has been
spoken about it to audiences already. Apart from this there’s a
 fight scene in a harbor which will definitely be a big highlight
in 'Velayudham', I can assure it will be something very interesting
to look forward to and something my fans will enjoy watching
on-screen.
How true is it that there are 30 comedians?
Well, I can say that under Santhanam’s captainship there will
29 comedians. There’s a whole team of comedians itself that he
 heads so we have meant it in that way.
All your forthcoming films are with top-notch directors, Murugadoss, Gautham Menon and Shankar. We understand we'll be seeing a suave
avatar of Vijay, but why haven't we seen this earlier?
To tell the truth, honestly, I have been approached by all these directors only now and I loved the scripts so I accepted them. It is not like I wanted to do these kind of films only now but these projects are coming my way only now and I am happy to accept them.
Are you doing Dookudu remake?
I watched the film, I really liked and enjoyed watching it but I am not doing the film’s Tamil remake.
Udhaynidhi has expressed he’ll watch 'Velayudham' first show. When
will you watch '7aum Arivu'?
I will definitely watch it on Diwali, no doubts about that but I don’t know which show. I will watch '7aum Arivu', my film 'Velayudham' and 'Ra.One' on Diwali. How many ever films will release that day I will watch them all the very same day, no doubts. That’s how crazy I am about films (smiles).
No doubts we see a balance between Hansika & Genelia in trailers, but
can you tell what will be the highlight?
The director has beautifully balanced between Hansika and Genelia’s character. There’s no way anyone can compare their characters since they are so different from one another. My scenes with both of them are like two different episodes to frame it rightly. However I must say that Genelia’s character plays a key role in my character seeing a change in the film, from that of a commoner to that of a superhero.
About your film with AL Vijay…
Yes we both are talking about it but it will take time, probably even two more years to go on floors! But there’s a lot of time for an official announcement on this front.
A recent Tamil film that Vijay enjoyed thoroughly…
'Kanchana'! My kids enjoyed this horror film so very much that when I’m home they’ll be enacting the scenes from the film to me!

                                            THANKS!!!

Ilayathalapathy Vijay : The new Rajinikanth of Kollywood


For people who didn’t know that celebrities are looked upon as demi-gods, the incident that took place on Dickenson Road yesterday is proof enough. The launch of a jewellery store saw Kollywood superstar Illayathalapathy Vijay visiting the city on Saturday morning. If you think that only stars like Amitabh Bachchan or Rajinikanth can witness such fan frenzy, this one seemed to have challenged them all!
Picture this: Fans hanging from the trees, buildings and almost everything else to catch a glimpse of the star; the entire road which had hosts of people trying to take pictures of him on their mobile phones; young lads calling out slogans and holding placards for the star; kids gleaming with joy when the star lifted his hand to wave to his fans — this is pretty much the scene in India when the local people gets to witness their favourite star.
With fans being overjoyed at one side, one could witness an action-packed scene going on the other side. With fans climbing on top of the cars and trying to fall on the superstar himself, the police force had a tough time handling fan frenzy. Impatient with their attempt, some police personnel used lathis to control the situation. With security guards banging the gates on the faces of the people, the injuries that people suffered definitely need a mention.
You have kids holding on to their mothers, crying to take a picture with him; along with chairs and boards falling down — the scene was quite pathetic, we must add. It was a tough task for mediapersons to enter the store. With security guards and the police questioning why we didn’t come at 7.30am, it came as a quite shocker for us.
With Vijay’s upcoming film Velayudham releasing this Diwali and his political ambitions being the hot topic, all this worked to his advantage. With this kind of chaos and confusion, it looks like the new superstar has arrived. However, all this fan fare is undoubtedly overwhelming and it’s surprising to witness such frenzy even at this era.

I Have Soft Corner for Vijay - Says Priyanka Chopra

In a span of few years, Priyanka Chopra, a former Miss World, shot to fame with blockbuster films and turned into a vivacious diva. Dressed in a simple white shirt and denims, she talks excitedly about her fondness for Chennai and the Kollywood industry!

For a Bollywood star, her connection with Kollywood and this city goes deeper than one would ...have thought. Talking about her connection with K-town and Chennai, she says, “My first movie was with Vijay and so definitely, I have a soft corner for him! The memories of my first film are evergreen. I’d love to act with him again, given a chance.”

The V quotient


Velayudham, director Raja's first film with Vijay, is much-awaited this Deepavali. It will live up to the hype, Raja tells Malathi Rangarajan
The canvas is vast. The production is on a mind-boggling scale. And the hero's image has grown by leaps and bounds since Kaavalan, his last release in January this year. Touted as the costliest Vijay film ever, Velayudham is gearing up to offer a festive treat for filmgoers. And if you think its director Raja is pressured by the onus on his young shoulders, you are way off the mark. Just as cheerful as he was during the days of Santosh Subramaniam when I met him last, this prince of remakes is eager to share his experiences aboutVelayudham. “It will be a Lucullan feast for the young and the old alike,” he smiles.
This is the first time the director has come out of the comfort zone of his family production house and his brother, Jayam Ravi, who has been the hero of all of Raja's Tamil ventures. From a cocoon he has been catapulted to real big league, straightway! But it all began with a casual conversation with Vijay at a social do. “You'll give hits only with your brother, will you?” Vijay teased Raja. The words marked the beginning of a friendship that led to the two teaming up forVelayudham. “I was floored by the simplicity of the man,” laughs Raja.
The director analysed Vijay's popularity thoroughly before he embarked on the script work. “He is a hero with an extensive fan base that includes youth, women and children, because he is at home in all the saleable genres,” says Raja. He is right, because be it family sentiment such as Love Today, gentle romance of theKadhalukku Mariyaadhai kind or thrilling action like Ghilli, Vijay has shown that he can score. So when a hero of his stature reposed confidence in Raja, the director realised the responsibility. “I took a very long time working on the narration over and over again, till I was satisfied. It took me eight months. I have given my best for Velayudham,” he says.
But isn't it a remake again? “Azaad is only an inspiration. Though we bought the rights of the Telugu film, I've taken only the knot and woven a screenplay that is completely new,” explains Raja. Making a film for a hero like Vijay is a challenge, because his image looms large. And his mass appeal is on a very high plane at the moment. “Exactly, but surprisingly when I sat down to work on the screenplay a couple of years ago the scenario was different, though Vijay was still a formidable hero. Yet for Velayudham I envisaged him as a veritable crowd-puller giving a clarion call to the public at large to awake. And today he is such a personality in real life,” he smiles.
Mass entertainers have a large audience, contends Raja. “Vijay's spontaneity is amazing. And Velayudham will be a sensible commercial film about a superhero who is real. No paradox here!” Raja cannot stop talking about the rapport they share. “We are in the same age group and hence the camaraderie continues,” he laughs.
The female leads
Genelia and Hansika are the female leads. Despite two big releases – Engaeyum Kaadhal and Maapillai — Hansika hasn't quite made a mark in Tamil. “Velayudham will change all that. She plays a village girl and should remind viewers of Khushboo in her heyday.”
Genelia will be seen as a spirited journo. So far all Raja's heroines have appealed as strong characters. “It's the same in Velayudham. A powerful story, I believe, should provide enough scope for the female characters too,” he says.
It's surprising to hear that 30 comedians are in the fray in Velayudham! And heading the battalion is Santhanam. “But the story demanded so many of them,” avers Raja. Friends is a remarkable comedy in Vijay's career. “Velayudham will be a memorable humour trip that should work even better than Friends,” is Raja's stand.
The tricky train sequence
Tom Delmar, the stunt co-ordinator of projects such as Braveheart, has been behind the shooting of an extremely tricky train sequence for Velayudham. It has been shot on a train moving on a bridge. A slight miss and the actor could fall 100 feet below! “A very risky sequence, but Vijay did it coolly. My heart was in my mouth when it was being filmed,” even thinking about it makes Raja sigh! The location was Rayagada in Orissa.
“Such a large production was possible only because we had a banner like Aascar Films backing us,” he adds.
Priyan is the camera person. “And it was wonderful working with Vijay Antony for the music. The team as a whole has been great. Velayudham will please everyone. It isn't over-confidence. It's the reasoning that our hard work is bound to pay dividends,” smiles Raja.
