Today is actor Vishal's Birthday.

Vishal is one of the top league stars in Kollywood and he is also a leading producer. But apart from these he has assumed bigger roles within the film industry and has been working day and night to get a solution to many problems plaguing the film industry

Vishal spearheaded the much needed change in the Nadigar Sangam with his Pandavar Ani, chiefly to prevent its premises from going to third parties' hands. In the two years that have passed, the new dispensation have fulfilled most of their election mandates making the majority members happy and all obstructions have been removed for the construction of the new building to proceed.

When Vishal threw his hat into the fray for the Tamil Nadu Producer Council election and that too for the President post, it is needless to say that his decision was welcomed with a lot of negativity and again the old hawks predicted his fall. However, Vishal, this time truly surprised one and all by winning again and becoming the most powerful man in Kollywood holding the post of President of the TFPC and the general secretary of the Nadigar Sangam.

As the President of Producer council Vishal Vishal threw his first missile on FEFSI making it clear to them that henceforth the producers will call the shots regarding salaries and perks and will choose whom to work with. The federation reacted in the exact way Vishal probably envisaged and declared a strike which did not last even a couple of days and they have reported to work even before the Labor Department facilitated mediation efforts. The "Puratchi Thalapathy" struck another telling blow that in spite of the strike being called off the TFPC will still work with FEFSI as well as others as the situation demands.

Vishal has also been working tirelessly to end the piracy menace that is one of the severe problems affecting the prospects of Tamil films. We can hope that soon Vishal and team will bring a concrete solution to either eradicate the piracy are remove its impact on the films' collections.

Vishal has also been busy acting in multiple films as always but in the past few months his work for his films had to take a back seat due to his priorities as a President of TFPC. This meant that the actor who plans at least two or three releases per year has not had any release so far this year.However the wait of the fans and movie buffs will be compensated well as Vishal's 'Thupparivaalan' with acclaimed director Mysskin has been completed and getting ready to hit the screens in the month of September. This is one of the most anticipated films of the year.

Vishal is also acting in 'Irumbu Thirai' directed by debutant Mithran and he has completed shooting for his debut Malayalam film 'Villain' in which Mohanlal plays the lead role.

IndiaGlitz wishes a Happy Birthday to Vishal and we wish him more strength to the true Revolutionary of Kollywood so that the industry will get rid of many long lasting problems.
