Vijay, 'Velayudham', Nehru Stadium

The Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai has of late become a preferred destination of biggies in Kollywood to host film-related functions in the sprawling structure, which could house thousands at a time.

And now, Aascar Ravichandran, producer of Vijay's 52nd film tentatively titled 'Velayudham', is planning to hold the movie's launch function at the stadium, in the presence of big guns of the industry.

Remember Ravichandran conducted the audio launch function of Kamal Haasan's K S Ravikumar directed 'Dasavatharam' in the same place, and the event was attended by Chief Minister M Karunanidhi and Jackie Chan among others.

It is said that the launch of the movie directed by 'Jayam' Raja would be held at the Nehru Stadium by June and those at Aascar are busy making arrangements for the grand event.

Triple offer from Vijay

Vijay is at an important cross road now. With controversies and criticisms mounting Ilaya Thalapathi has finally decided to put everything to rest and make every body happy.

As the first step Vijay has decided to release three films this year to make the theatre owners happy. Siddique's ‘Kaavalkaran’ is 60% complete and is generating good trade talk so far. ‘Jayam’ Raja is also ready for ‘Velayudham’ and there will be an official announcement next week.

Also there is news about Vijay giving his consent to do the remake of ‘3-Idiots’ in Tamil. It’s likely that Vijay will announce this at the launch function of ‘Velayudham’.

With these sudden developments the theatre owners are convinced and are ready for Vijay films again.

Poo Parvathi in Vijay's Velayudham movie

The grand launching of Vijay-starrerVelayudhammovie is scheduled on May 27th at Nehru Stadium where Dasavatharam movie launch was also held.

The final cast of the movie is yet to be released. Vijay' Velayudham will have two heroines GeneliaandHansika Motwani and a sister character in this film.

The sister role is a weighty character and who gets to bag this sister role remains the million dollar question in Kollywood arena. While some sources say thatSaranya Mohan is under consideration, a few says that Subramaniyapuram Swathiis under consideration and a few others point to ‘Poo’ Parvathi.

Actress Parvathi made her way from God’s own country striking with a spectacular debut in Kollywood with ‘Poo’. The actress has won various awards for her astounding performance. Although she received more offers in Tamil film industry, she did not take up any offers as she seems not to have felt those roles powerful as in her debut.

Looks like Parvathi also has a strong chance of bagging this character.

Vijay’s son Sanjay is said to do a cameo in the climax of the movie as the son Vijay.

There was a huge crowd on location at the VIT campus to see Vijay and Asin. Last time such crowds were seen was when Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai shot for Endhiran at the same location.

Vijay’s 51st movie Kavalkaran shooting was going on full swing in Karaikkudi and Kumbakonam regions of Tamil nadu. Vijay and Asin along the other crew members was shooting for the the film at these locations.

Now Asin has completed her Karaikudi schedule and gone back to Mumbai. Director Siddique says: “We would have completed nearly 30 percent of the film, when the first schedule ends on April 30. It is shaping out very well. Vijay is an extraordinary artist and his performance is going to be amazing in the film.”

Raj Kiran plays Asin dad’s role in the film. Roja pairs up with Raj Kiran to play Asin’s mom. The other cast of Kavalkaran includes Vadivelu, and MS Bhaskar while music for the film has been scored by Vidyasagar.
