VIJAY’S VILLAIN FOR AJITH NOW?

Apparently, the lead villain spot for Ajith’s upcoming film Thala 57 is still left for grabs. The latest we hear is that there have been talks with Kannada Superstar Kichcha Sudeep to play this role but due to some reasons, Sudeep is unable to entertain the offer.
 

Now the Thala 57 team is looking to rope in a North Indian star to play Ajith's baddie in the film.


It must be noted that Sudeep’s performance in Naan E was lauded by Tamil audience. He also played the main antagonist in Vijay’s Puli. Sudeep, in one of his recent interviews to Behindwoods, informed that he likes Ajith and would love to work with him someday. Hope that happens soon!

Director Rathina Siva, who is fresh from the release of Rekka might grab an opportunity to narrate a story to Ilayathalapathy Vijay very soon. When we inquired about this to the man himself, the Vaa Deal director told us:
 

“When I met Vijay sir recently, he said that he liked the trailer of Rekka. I have one script ready for Vijay sir and will narrate the story to him by the end of this month”.


Let's wait and see how it goes!

JILLA DIRECTOR WILL OFFICIALLY REMAKE AJITH'S VEDALAM WITH THIS SENSATIONAL STAR!

After Vijay’s Jilla, director Neason is back after two years. As reported by us long back, he teams up with Powerstar Pawan Kalyan for a Telugu project. This films kick started today (11/10/2016) with a small ‘puja’ in Hyderabad.
 

Talking to Behindwoods, Neason said. “I am happy to finally disclose the news that my next film will be with Powerstar Pawan Kalyan. It will be a remake of Tamil blockbuster film Vedalam but we have made some changes to the script to suit Pawan sir's image. The film will be bankrolled by AM Rathnam’s banner. Other cast and crew details will be announced very soon.”

TWO BAIRAVAAS TO CLASH FOR THIS PONGAL?

TWO BAIRAVAAS TO CLASH FOR THIS PONGAL?

The shooting of director P.Vasu's Shivalinga, starring Raghava Lawrence and Ritika Singh in lead roles, started around July 2016 with a formal pooja.
 

Being a horror thriller, Shivalinga is an official remake of Vasu's earlier 2016 Kannada film of the same title. Sources suggest that 80 - 85 % of the shoot is done and the makers are planning to release the film for Pongal 2017. If this happens to be true, it would be interesting to see a Raghava Lawrence's film releasing along with Vijay's Bairavaa, as both will be entertainment guaranteed films. However, we have to wait for an official announcement from the Shivalinga team.


Also, it should be noted that Lawrence gave his Bairavaa title to Vijay, when the Vijay60 team approached him. Now, going by these reports, looks like both the Bairavaas might clash against each other for this Pongal

MORE SUPPORT FOR SIVAKARTHIKEYAN!

Sivakarthikeyan got a little too emotional at Remo's success meet when he said that few people are trying to unsettle his career though he never mentioned who or what they did.


It was Simbu who lent his support for Siva first. Following that, now, it is the Nadigar Sangam secretary Vishal, who has given his voice for Sivakarthikeyan. In a recent press interaction, Vishal said, "Even I have experienced Siva's current situation during my earlier stages, but I will make sure the right decision is made for Siva. The problem will be solved soon."
 

Let us hope that this issue gets sorted out soon in a proper way.

BAIRAVAA AND S3 ON THE SAME DAY!

The team of Bairavaa is currently shooting in Binny Mills, Chennai for a song sequence, while S3 team is shooting in Malaysia.


It was already reported that Bairavaa's teaser might release for this Diwali, but now sources suggest that not just Bairavaa, but even Suriya's S3 teaser is also being planned to release for Diwali. Both, being top star films, obviously the teams would plan their teaser release time accordingly so that both the films have space to reach out to the audience. However, we have to wait for an official confirmation regarding this, from the teams of Bairavaa and S3.

Bairavaa is being planned to release for Pongal, while S3 will be hitting the screens on 16th of December.
