Sun buys Vettaikkaran
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,August 31 2009]
In a move which would bring cheers among Vijay fans, Sun Pictures has acquired the release rights of ÂVettaikkaran from AVM Balasubramanian and B Gurunath Meiyappan of AVM Productions.
At a time when the actor is implicitly making his political intentions clear (his recent meeting with Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi is an example), the purchase of his forthcoming film by Sun Pictures, a part of the all-powerful media group Sun TV Network, is expected to give him immense publicity mileage.
Directed by Babu Sivan, a former associate of Dharani, Tollywood heroine Anushka is making her comeback in Kollywood with ÂVettaikkaranÂ.
The debutant director, who promises that ÂVettaikkaran will be a completely commercial film, with great songs, action sequences and a message, says: ÂI am really excited. It is such an honour to work for an AVM production starring Vijay as hero. His appeal and reach are just amazing.Â
Vijay Anthony, who is scoring music for the first time for a Vijay movie, says ÂUsually, people say my compositions are full of energy. But, when they combine with VijayÂs energetic steps, the effect is bound to be something else.Â
