Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay is a thrilled man these days. As first reported by this newspaper, Vijay will be a part of Shankar’s Tamil remake of the Bollywood hit 3 Idiots titled Nanban. The Vettaikkaran star has joined the ensemble cast of Jiiva, Srikanth, Sathyaraj Ileana and Anuya in Dehradun where the nex...t schedule of the much-hyped project has commenced. It’s a significant film in Vijay’s career, one of the reasons being that his long-cherished dream of acting in a Shankar film has come true. Interestingly, Shankar was an associate of Vijay’s father S.A. Chandrashekar in several films, and his mother Shoba Chandrashekar’s debut directorial venture, with an almost similar title, Nanbargal.
Since the film had faced several hiccups before its start, sources said that symbolically Shankar began the shooting with the song ‘All izz Well,’ composed by Harris Jayaraj, which was also part of the original version. Speaking to this newspaper from the famous Forest Research Institute in Dehradun, an elated Vijay says “I am really excited to work with Shankar!” Asked about whether he had really undergone a makeover, including a stylish hairdo, he evades diplomatically, “I am not supposed to speak”. Sources say that our mass hero looks the same as usual and there is no significant change in his hairstyle. But the same source adds that Vijay might go in for a beard for the later schedules, which are planned at Ladakh. Meanwhile, Vijay’s next offering, Pagalavan, with a revolutionary theme, will be with controversial director Seeman and is likely to commence after the state elections.
