After the success of Theri and Mersal, director Atlee has teamed up with actor Vijay for the recently released action film Bigil. The film stars Nayanthara as female lead while the supporting cast includes Yogi Babu, Vivekh, Anandraj, Kathir, Jackie Shroff and others.
Vijay has donned a dual role of an ageing gangster Rayappan and his son, football coach Michael, in this sports-based film. Released on October 25, the film is currently enjoying a dream run at the box office. Apart from the South Indian market, Bigil has received an overwhelmingly positive response at the North Indian box office.
Recently, Bollywood director Anand Kumar tweeted about his experience watching Bigil at a multiplex in Mumbai. In the post, he expressed that though he is sat in the front row, he has no regrets. Anand had also tweeted that he really enjoyed the performances of the leads. Anand Kumar is currently helming the biopic of Baichung Bhutia.
On the technical front, Bigil was shot by G.K. Vishnu while Ruben handles the editing department. This AR Rahman musical is produced by Kalpathi S. Aghoram, Kalpathi S. Ganesh and Kalpathi S. Suresh under the banner AGS Entertainment.
