The Villu to make it!

Publicity stills for the Vijay-starrer “Villu” is out. And fans can’t stop raving about their favourite hero. Shot by model-model coordinator-fashion photographer Karthik, the stills smack of style.

“I’m used to glamour photography. But this is the first time I’m doing publicity stills for a film. I was overwhelmed during the one-day shoot at AVM Studios. I was surrounded by big names in the industry. Prabhudeva, the film’s director, has a keen eye for detail.

Actor Vijay is so cool off-screen. But once the arc lights are switched on, he’s fire — focussed and intense. Nalini Sriram was the stylist. I was looking for some expressions, and Vijay came up with a dozen. The shoot went off well. It was a dream come true,” gushes Karthik, who flits between Chennai-Bangalore and Bangkok.
