Vishnuvardhan walks out of ÂBilla 2Â
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,February 18 2011]
Here comes a surprise development. Vishnuvardhan is no more the director of ÂBilla 2Â, the 51st film of Ajith. Instead, Chakri Toleti of ÂUnnaipol Oruvan fame will wield the megaphone for this mega budget film.
Vishnu walked out of the project in an amicable way as he found it hard to do two films at a time- ÂBilla 2Â with Ajith and ÂThe ShadowÂ, a Telugu film with Pawan Kalyan. Following this, the producers found Chakri to replace Vishnu.
A source close to Vishnuvardhan tells us: ÂVishnu very much wanted to do both the films. But he couldnÂt as dates clashed. So he took a hard decision to opt out of ÂBilla 2Â with a firm belief that his good friend (Ajith) would understand his desire to direct a Telugu film.Â
Buzz is that ÂBilla-2 would go on floors by the last week of April and would hit the screens by this year end. ÂChakri Toleti, who studied filmmaking in the US, is excited about working with Ajith, sources add.
