Arya is Ilamparidhi
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,April 01 2010]
Filmmaker Vijay is all praise for Arya, the protagonist of his forthcoming movie ÂMadharasapattinamÂ. ÂWithout his hardwork and dedication, I couldnÂt have completed this period film so early, says the director of ÂKireedam and ÂPoi Solla Porom fame.
ÂArya plays Ilamparidhi, a wrestling champion. He would often say Ânothing is impossibleÂ. And he has proved it true in ÂMadharasapattinam with his performance as a Madras youth of the 1940s, says Vijay.
On the film, he says, Âwith inputs from writers Prapanchan and Ajayan Bala, we recreated the old Madras. It is going to be a visual treat for the audience when they see Chennai of pre-independence era. The town was so beautiful then.Â
Vijay adds: ÂG V Prakash KumarÂs music is no doubt an asset for ÂMadharasapattinamÂ. So are the lyrics by Na Muthukumar. I must thank producer Kalpathi S Agoram, who gave me enormous freedom without any restrictions on budget. On the whole, the film is going to be a classic romance.Â
