Busy with the works related to ‘Velayudham’, his first film with Vijay which is to be launched at a grand function in Chennai today, director ‘Jayam’ Raja has revealed some interesting details on the movie.
“It is a film for the masses. Based on a story by late director Tirupathisamy, ‘Velayudham’ revolves around an ordinary man, who becomes a real hero for the sake of people,” the ‘Raja’ of remakes says.
“Vijay plays an enterprising youngster while Genelia is doing the role of a journalist,” the director says and adds: “Hansika Motwani and Saranya Mohan are also doing crucial characters. Comedy will be taken care of by Santhanam and Sathyan.”
Saying Vijay Antony has come out with catchy songs, Raja continues: “this is the first time for me to direct a big hero like Vijay. The decision (to work with Vijay) was made since he fits well to the role, which is about a larger than life personality.”
