Vijay starrer 'Villu' is fast nearing completion. The movie being directed by Prabhu Deva features Nayantara in the lead role. A major portion of the movie has been shot. Buzz is that Prabhu Deva recently cranked a song sequence in Bangkok. A slew of visitors thronged the place to watch the shoot. Several of them exchanged pleasantries with Vijay and took photographs with him. 'Villu', a racy entertainer, brings together Prabhu Deva and Nayantara again. After creating success in 'Pokkiri', Prabhu Deva is confident of repeating the magic again. Produced by Ayngaran Intertaional, Vijay has tried out a new style in the movie, which Prabhu Deva hopes would become popular among his fans.
Is Vijay aiming right with 'Villu'?
Touted as the next superstar of Tamil cinema, Vijay is reportedly keen on getting everything right with 'Villu'. An average showing with 'Azhagiya Tamil Magan' and 'Kuruvi' has not helped Vijay's journey to the numero uno position for the future. Despite being on the top amongst young heroes, the actor has to come up with a string of successes to consolidate his position. Vijay's magnetic appeal in the B and C centers has seen to it that even his average movies somehow scrape through at the box office. But this is a trend that might not continue for long especially with the influx of talented young filmmakers experimenting new styles of storytelling in Tamil cinema. These innovative approaches have been recognized and appreciated by audiences. The surge of quality filmmaking is bound to tighten the noose around run-of-the-mill stories. After the stupendous success of 'Pokkiri', the remake of a Telugu film by the same name, Vijay has teamed up with Prabhu Deva once again, to reproduce the success. Sources say 'Villu' is expected to have the usual dose of fights, dance, sentiment-filled sequences and loads of dialogues that 'glorify' Vijay. These are facets that are loved by the 'typical' Vijay fan. No matter how well these elements reach out, the story and narration hold the key to the long run. This is where Prabhu Deva and Vijay have to be extra careful. There is a talk doing the rounds as to what the story of 'Villu' is going to be like. It goes like this'. A group of baddies kill an honest, hardworking man. The man's wife and son are somehow spared. The son (Vijay) grows up under the impression that his father had perished in an accident. But then, as the story goes, Vijay learns of the malicious plot that got his father murdered. An angry Vijay hatches a plan to bring the murderers to justice and in the process falls in love with the daughter of a baddie, played by Nayantara. Inevitably it is justice and love ahead of Dad and so she toes the lines of Vijay's plans dutifully only to succeed. Even a die hard Vijay fan would be hoping against hope that this is just a rumor and the actual story is in fact a new gripping tale. If this rumor turns out to be true, one gets the feeling Vijay will have to get back to square one, rethink his strategies and start all over again in order to get things right. Only time will tell us the truth. So, let's hold our horses and wait for the story to unfold. Keep an eye on musicmazaa for updates.
Upbeat Prabhu Deva confident on 'Villu'
Prabhu Deva is directing Vijay for the film 'Villu' and the dance master-turned actor-turned director is more than confident about the movie's prospects at the box office.

When asked about big names such as Vadivelu and Nayantara in the film, Prabhu Deva said, 'When Vijay was confirmed for the project, one of my assistants literally begged me to cast Nayantara in the film. His desire seems to be working wonderfully well and the film is shaping up very well'. 'The film would start off in a pleasant way in a picturesque habitat and jovial manner with family, friends and lorry loads of fun. A gory incident takes place and the action begins. Vijay would be awesome in these scenes. Songs and fights have come out impressively and I am very happy with things'. Talking about Nayantara in the film, Prabhu Deva gives a sneak peek of her introduction scene. 'When you are running for cover after it starts raining and then you find a beautiful girl with an umbrella standing in the rain inviting you the share the umbrella with her, how would you feel?' asks the director. Well, Nayantara might just have to dance in the rain once again after 'Kuselan'. When asked about Prabhu Deva's Hindi remake of 'Pokiri' featuring Salman Khan, the expert dancer turned director says, 'it has been about seven years since Salman had acted in an action packed film. He has performed extremely well and the movie is sure to be exciting'. It is interesting to note that Prabhu Deva is directing Vijay for 'Villu' while his elder brother Raju Sundaram is directing Ajith in 'Aegan'. So who are the real competitors? Vijay and Ajith or Prabhu Deva and Raju Sundaram? We'll know soon.
Vijay to turn 'Vetaikkaaran' after loading 'Villu'
Vijay is currently working for 'Villu' that is being directed by Prabhu Deva. Meanwhile he had done a cameo for his father's film 'Panthayam' that stars Nithin Sathya and Sindhu Tolani. Vijay plays himself in the film and features as though he is acting in a film titled 'MGR' directed by Perarasu. Vijay's association with MGR does not end here. His next venture after 'Villu' has been titled 'Vettaikkaaran'. It can be recalled that MGR had acted in a film bearing the same title decades ago. This film is to be produced by AVM. Would it be ironical to say that Vijay would become a 'Vettaikaaran' after arming himself with 'Villu'?
