We had told in our website some time back that Vijay loves to watch a lot of old films in his home theatre. In fact, whenever he can grab some free time from his tiring schedule, he de-stresses himself by watching a lot of old movies.

His favorites in Tamil include films of Sivaji, M.G.R., Rajni and Kamalhassan. He has been watching Rajni’s Payum Puli, Kamal’s Sakala Kala Vallavan, M.G.R’s Ulagam Sutrum Vaaliban, Kudiyirunda Kovil and Sivaji’s Deiva Magan etc. Vijay is not satisfied just by watching these films once. He repeatedly sees these movies.

He also makes note of the salient features of these films which have rendered them a great hit. He observes with an experienced eye of a critic the entertainment values of the films that make it stand out from the rest of the crowd.

He does not fail to analyze the fact about the way these films have catered to the audience. The way things are going, the days are not far off when Vijay would be calling the shots as director.
