Sun Pictures today officially said that it had acquired the release rights of Vijay starrer ‘Sura’. The film production and distribution arm of the Sun Television Network has also said it would release the film in April.

Since ‘Sura’, directed by S P Rajakumar, is the 50th film of Vijay, it is being made on a never before budget when compared to other movies of the actor. The shooting is currently on in and around the fishing hamlets near Puducherry, as Vijay is playing a fisherman.

After completing the current schedule in the Union Territory, the cast and crew of the movie would move to Tuticorin, where a stunt sequence had been planned near the harbour. The next destination would be foreign locales, where songs would be canned on the lead pair- Vijay and Tamannah.

Produced by Sangili Murugan (who had produced ‘Kadhalukku Mariyadhai’), ‘Sura’ has musical score by Mani Sharma. Cinematography is by Ekambaram, whose work for ‘Iyarkai’ and ‘Kanthaswamy’ won accolades.
