Remakes have always been safe bets for Vijay and director M Raja. With the former having a track record of films like 'Kadhalukku Mariyadhai', 'Ninaithen Vandhai', 'Priyamanavale' and 'Pokkiri', the latter has carved a niche for himself doing remakes from 'Jayam' to 'Santosh Subramaniam'.
And now, both have come together for 'Velayudham', which too is said to be a remake of a Telugu hit, titled 'Aazad'. Produced by Aascar V Ravichandran, the film that was launched amidst much fanfare has two heroines- Genelia and Hansika Motwani.
Says Raja, "This is my first film with a big actor like Vijay. He suits to the role well. The movie is about an ordinary youngster who transforms as a catalyst to reform the society. I am hopeful 'Velayudham' will work big time with the audience.
"Vijay plays an enterprising youngster while Genelia is doing the role of a journalist," the director says and adds: "Hansika Motwani and Saranya Mohan are also doing crucial characters. Comedy will be taken care of by Santhanam and Sathyan." The plot is interesting. Genelia reports that a superhero is saving the city and circumstances lead Vijay to accidentally save the city from the impostors, making him the accidental superhero!
Vijay's costumes in the movie seem to be inspired from a popular game title. Though nothing is known how long he'd be wearing the costumes, the first look given by the makers suggest Vijay's up to something big!
Saying Priyan's cinematography will be a highlight and Vijay Antony has come out with catchy songs, Raja continues: "On the whole, 'Velayudham' will be a wholesome treat to not just Vijay fans, but for every movie-goer."
On his part, Vijay says, "Working for a big banner like Aascar gives me immense proud. Raja is known for his knack to deliver blockbusters without a break. 'Velayudham' is a nice story. Hopefully our combination should rock."
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'.
