- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,May 23 2016]
Music composer Vijay Antony is now one of the most successful heroes in Kollywood with four consecutive hits. His latest film 'Pichaikkaran' has emerged as a genuine super hit of the year and has completed a remarkable 100 day run at the box office.
The film directed by Sasi was dubbed in Telugu and released as 'Bichagadu' recently. Official sources confirm that the Telugu version was no inferior to the original Tamil in terms of commercial success. Released over the past week end 'Bichagadu' has begun to alter many earlier records. The fact that this film with plenty of emotional and sentimental content has to compete with many big films and still excel speaks volume about the intensity of the success. It is worth noting that the film released in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana along with the biggie Mahesh Babu starrer 'Brahmotsavam'.
"I owe this success to my Director Sasi sir and my distributor Lakshman. His courage on releasing this film against a massive film, pinning hopes on the content has been the biggest plus factor. I'm indeed excited to be termed as a hero who can command commercial respect in two languages at the same time. I was told that it is a rare occasion for a Tamil hero to be accepted in this region of the country. With a proper script, execution and plan on the release I'm confident that all my future films will have a great visibility here in the Telugu film industry. This effort will enhance my commercial reputation as a star in south" declared Vijay Antony with a smile as an evidence of his confidence.
