Genelia wasn't lucky when she landed in Kollywood few years ago. Today she may not be counted in the ranks of Priyanka Chopra or Katrina Kaif in Bollywood but Genelia is still a charming favourite for many. Recently her success in Bollywood was repeated in Kollywood also. Her last film in Tamil 'Santosh Subramaniam' was a super hit and her jinx in Kollywood was broken for ever.
Her second round in Kollywood is gaining momentum. After the success of 'Santosh Subramaniam' she bagged 'Uthamaputhiran' opposite Dhanush and now she has got an even bigger film.
'Jayam' Raja who gave Genelia her first hit in Tamil has signed her for his film with Vijay. Vijay's 52nd film which is tentatively titled 'Velayudham' will be her next big thing. 'Jayam' Raja was particular that Genelia play the role because of her bubbly attitude which the character also wants very much. This is Genelia's second film opposite Vijay after 'Sachin'.
