The audio-launch of 'Aadhavan' starring Suriya and Nayantara as lead pair for the first time and directed by K.S. Ravikumar was held in the city yesterday. The audio-cassettes and CDs were released by producer-director Shankar and received by Rama Narayanan, president of the Producers' Council. The surprise guest on the occasion, however, was Vijay. Not often a leading hero takes part in the audio-launch of the film of one of his contemporaries.
Speaking at the event, Suriya revealed that Vijay, his co star in Friends, sent an SMS to him early this year after listening to the songs of the film 'Vaaranam Aayiram'. The message read, as quoted by Suriya, "The songs have come out very well; I've been listening them repeatedly". Suriya lauded Vijay's open mind and said that he felt a little apprehensive of Vijay's presence at the venue when the songs of 'Aadhavan' were screened.
While addressing the gathering, Vijay mentioned that Udhayanidhi is very liberal about the finances and that he would provide liberty to the directors for a mind-blowing output. He praised Suriya for choosing his roles carefully and showing variety in his movies. He also admitted that he’s very fond of Harris’ music.
Director Shankar released the audio and Tamil Film Producers President Rama Narayanan received it. Later a slick trailer of the movie was launched by producer R B Choudhry and received by Ilayathalapathy Vijay.

Vettaikaran’s secret word
By now Vijay Antony has acquired the prefix Nakka Mukka with his name owing to the success of the tune he belted out for Kadhalil Vizhunthen. The resounding success of his songs has gained him an enviable status in Tamil cinema and he’s now scoring for the much-awaited Vijay starrer Vettaikkaran.
Vouching for the saleability and variety of the songs in Vettaikkaran, he revealed in a recent media interaction that there’s indeed a catch word along the lines of Nakka Mukka in Vettaikkaran too. “But that’s a suspense for now,” he added cautiously.
Besides Vettaikkaran, Vijay has also scored for the Malayalam remake Prithviraj – Priya Mani starrer Ninaithale Inikkum.

Samuthirakani has a script for Vijay, Suriya
IndiaGlitz
[Thursday, August 20, 2009]
Samuthirakani, who is fresh from the success of ‘Naadodigal’, is currently busy with the Telugu remake of the movie. Titled ‘Sambo Siva Sambo’, the film has Ravi Teja in the lead role. After completing the Telugu version, he would direct the same script in Kannada.
Besides, the filmmaker has penned a historical script, for which he feels either Vijay or Suriya would fit the bill. “It is a period film without any compromise on commercial elements. I would soon meet Vijay and Suriya to discuss the script,” he says.
Claiming that the movie could be made on a ‘mega budget’ alone, Samuthirakani says it would take at least two years to complete the project. “Let us see how things are going to get shape,” he says.
He also throws light on two more future projects of him. “I would act in a film to be directed by Sasikumar and he would once again act in my directorial venture. I may also pen script to a television serial soon.

Vettaikkaran - A hunter and its hunt
IndiaGlitz
[Tuesday, August 18, 2009]
The hype is high whenever Vijay starts a film. It’s double for Vettaikkaran, for the buzz is that the actor is in a mood to start a political party. Not just his fans, but those interested at cinema and politics too eagerly wait for the release of the movie, expecting some implicit message in it.
Directed by Babu Sivan, a former associate of Dharani, the film is being produced by AVM Balasubramanian and B Gurunath Meiyappan for AVM. After a role in the Tamil film ‘Rendu’ opposite Madhavan, Tollywood heroine Anushka is making her comeback in Kollywood with Vettaikaran.
She says, “I am a great fan of Vijay. I have seen his movies several times. I had no hesitation in accepting the offer when AVM and director Babu Sivan approached me. It is a breezy entertainer and acting with him is a delight."
The debutant director, who promises that ‘Vettaikkaran’ will be a completely commercial film, with great songs, action sequences and a message, adds: “I am really excited. It is such an honour to work for an AVM production starring Vijay as hero.. His appeal and reach are just amazing.
Vijay Anthony, who is scoring music for the first time for a Vijay movie, says “Usually, people say my compositions are full of energy. But, when they combine with Vijay’s energetic steps, the effect is bound to be something else."
Will the story come to an end without a quote from Vijay? Certainly not. The actor says: “The crew has a strong contingent of technicians, including cinematographer Ravivarman, music director Vijay Antony, art director Milan and editor V T Vijayan. Babu Sivan is a man of talents. So, I am sure about the success of Vettaikaran."

Vijay issues unconditional apology
Vijay issued an unconditional apology today with regard to the Sivakasi issue that was dragged to the court earlier by a section of lawyers. They alleged that Vijay made disparaging remarks about the profession in his movie and demanded that he apologize for the denigration.
Putting an end to the dispute that went for months, Vijay today apologized in a letter through his lawyer. He mentioned that he had no intention to hurt the sentiments of the professional lawyers and that he infact had portrayed a lawyer's role in his movie Tamizhan.
Besides, the letter also stated that the scenes deemed contentious by the lawyers were removed from the movie while it was still playing in theaters.

Vettaikkaran- missing the regular element?
IndiaGlitz
[Saturday, August 08, 2009]
A set bearing resemblance to an IT workplace was erected inside AVM studio for the Vijay’s Vettaikkaran. Sadly half of the set got damaged in the recent fire accident that spread into the ‘Vettaikkaran’ set from another floor of the Studio.
The art director of the film re-erected the set in a single night and brought an awe of surprise on the face of the director. It is heard that the site was built for shooting a fight sequence. This time Kanal Kannan replaced Pepsi Vijayan, who usually does the stunt choreography for most of the Vijay movies.
It is a known fact that the fans usually expect a power-packed intro song for their hero. So, music director Vijay Antony has given a foot-tapping number “Vettaikkaran... Vettaikaran...” as a special treat for Vijay’s admirers. Totally there are 6 songs, among which there are two duet songs.
One of the duets is to be shot within a set at AVM studio and another will be shot extensively in Switzerland, Vijay’s lucky location. It is heard that the film’s crew will be packing to Switzerland during the month of August.
Though the songs of ‘Vettai1kkaran’ will satisfy the fans, it is whispered that another key and customary element of Vijay’s film will be missing this time. Know what? It is the punch dialogues that the actor usually sprinkles all thought his films. If you still look out for more on ‘Vettaikkaran’, here comes a masala news.

Vijay apologises to advocates
The ‘Sivakasi’ row that started years ago seems to have reached its end. For, Vijay, the hero of the movie, along with producer A M Rathnam, director Perarasu and comedian M S Baskar, expressed regret in the Madras High Court on Wednesday for ‘hurting the feelings of advocates’ in the film.
He also requested the Court to quash all the 13 defamation cases he is facing over the issue. Following this, Tamil Nadu Advocates Association President S Prabakran accepted the regret and wanted the Court to pass a detail order so as to ensure that no similar incidents occurred in the future.
Advocates in various parts of the State had initiated separate defamation cases against Vijay, Rathnam, Baskar and Perarasu, claiming that the legal fraternity had been depicted in poor light in the film. A Ranipet Court also issued summons and warrants.
