The next Vijay blockbuster is gearing for release. ‘Velayudham,’ a product of director Jayam Raja is 80% complete. The film has actor Vijay as the hero with Genelia, Hansika Motwani, and Saranya Mohan as the lead ladies. Most of director’s films have oodles of family sentiment mixed with the right amount of comedy, great songs and beautiful locales.

Sources close to the film’s unit have revealed that the team will soon be heading to an undisclosed overseas location for shooting a couple of songs. They have also revealed that the post-production work is also being carried out simultaneously. The film which set off on a positive note post Vijay’s huge success in his ‘Kavalan’ will be released by mid-2011.

Post the success of ‘Kavalan’ there is a lot of expectation on Vijay and now with the actor signing films with directors Shankar and Mani Ratnam the fans of the actor are already in high spirits. Sources close to the director have revealed that this film is a superhero subject. This news will be a bonanza for all Vijay fans who would love to see their favorite star scaling multistoried buildings and rescuing damsels in distress.

The music for this film has been scored by Vijay Antony.

We hope Vijay Antony repeats history with this film too. Sources close to the composer revealed that he has given his best shot in ‘Velayudham.’
