Doctorate for Vijay, Shankar
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,August 13 2007]
Dr MGR University will confer honorary doctorate on actor Vijay and director Shankar. They two sought-after film personalities would be conferred the award for their immense contribution to the film industry.
Vijay, son of director S A Chandrasekhar, made a humble beginning and went on to become a prominent hero, is currently the mass actor with a huge fan base. Having rendered several blockbusters, Vijay is considered a safe bet in the industry by the producers and directors. The young hero is today playing the lead role in Azhagiya Tamil Magan and a couple of big projects lined up his sleeve.
Director Shankar, who is known for his grandeur and lofty themes, is a successful producer too. Having rendered eight blockbusters including the latest Sivaji, Shankar is a shrewd producer whose S Pictures has come up with off-beat films like Kadhal, Imsai Arasan 23am Pulikesi and Veyyil.
Indiaglitz wishes Vijay and Shankar all success in their future ventures.
