This Diwali lost most of its color due to the lack of official updates from 'Valimai' and its only left to imagine how the hardcore Thala Ajith fans would have trended it if it had come on the festive date. We got in touch with one of the key members of the 'Valimai' crew and got some exclusive updates for you here.

According to our source, Thala Ajith as usual is dedicated personified on the sets of 'Valimai' ever since the shooting resumed in Ramoji Rao Film City in Hyderabad. Due to the pandemic, almost eight months have been lost and the crew is working overtime to capture the difficult action sequences with the current situational restrictions that they face.

It is already known that Ajith for the past month is camped in Hyderabad and prefers to ride in his Ducati bike to the sets from his hotel room. What is unknown is that the megastar never leaves the sets even if his scenes are not canned and is involved so much in the making. Most days the shooting had to be done many hours beyond the stipulated time and Thala with just a smile gave those extra hours. Even on Diwali day the director H. Vinod was planning to shoot without Ajith but the star insisted that he too participated and only on Monday the schedule was wrapped. In short, the team raves that without the unconditional cooperation and dedication of Thala a project of this magnitude is impossible to execute.

The 'Valimai' crew are raving about the action sequences that Thala Ajith is involved in and promise that it will be much bigger than anything seen on Tamil screens so far. The next schedule is expected to begin again in Hyderabad after a month's break and later important scenes are also planned abroad.

The source added that the delay in the project is not due to any other reason but the subject requires hard work and the director too is meticulous in nailing every single shot. Similarly, regarding the lack of updates, Thala Ajith and the team are keen to give fans updates that really matter and at the right time.

So Thala Ajith fans need not be disappointed as soon the updates on 'Valimai' will start pouring in and that too nothing will be ordinary but ones that will trend high and that is the wish of their idol and the team.

'Valimai' directed by H. Vinod is produced by Boney Kapoor and has a music score by Yuvan Shankar Raja. The principle cast comprises of Ajith, Huma Qureshi, Yogi Babu, Pearle Manney and Karthikeya.
