After Rajinikanth, it is Vijay who has won the hearts of audiences from toddlers to senior citizens and he has seen to it that his films give much value for money entertainment to his audiences and a lot of moolah for his producers. So far the Illayathalapathy has played it safe with the content of his movies mostly being action oriented with the right mix of comedy and other commercial elements.

Puli`, the new fantasy adventure from Vijay that is going to hit the screens on the 1st of October is a definite departure from his usual fare and it is learnt from reliable sources that the superstar`s son Sanjay was the one who cajoled his father to try something different and influenced him on choosing the different genre film Puli` directed by Chimbudevan.
