Ajith flicks Vijay’s man for 49th film

Just as reports are coming in about preparations for Vijay’s 50th film (to be directed by Siddique), his arch screen-rival Ajith also seems to be planning big for his 49th film.
 
The media was abuzz for quite sometime about the association of Gautham Menon with Ajith for a thriller of sorts, but then things seem to have fallen out of place and Dharani who delivered the smash hit ‘Gilli’ with Vijay has been reportedly roped in.
 
Though Vijay’s rise to absolute stardom seemed inevitable, ‘Gilli’ made sure that the actor had transcended to a different league altogether when compared with his contemporaries. Though the remake of a Telugu super hit, ‘Gilli’ had all the ingredients to propel Vijay to that of a macho young man with a tender heart. Dharani was credited with this Himalayan success. The duo came together again for ‘Kuruvi’, the first production venture of Udhayanidhi Stalin. The film was nowhere near the quality of ‘Gilli’ and yet managed a 150-day run.
 
With Dharani teaming up with Ajith, one can expect heroism to run riot on screen, which probably would be loved by ‘thala’ fans. The film would be produced by Sivaji Productions.
 
With Gautham reportedly not in Ajith’s good books anymore ‘for not coming up with the script on time and not meeting the star on a regular basis’ the ‘Khakka Khakka’ director found himself out of favor with Vijay as well in the past. The director had reportedly turned down Vijay’s suggestion to incorporate some of his trademark elements such as template-style action, dance and sentiment scenes for a film.
 
‘Gilli’ director Dharani to direct Ajith’s 49th film???.sounds very interesting.
