We salute the spirit and commitment of Prabu Deva. A day after the sad demise of his son Vishal, Prabhu was back on the sets of his Villu. Prabu Deva who was shattered by the death of his son is trying to put back his tears, remorse and grief by throwing himself on his work.It’s the best way to get over one’s personal tragedy. Recently after the Mumbai massacre, the Manager of Taj Hotel whose family was wiped out by the terrorist, preferred to stay on at work rather than go into mourning. It is a very tough thing, especially when you have lost your dear ones.

The Villu unit shot some patchwork to the climax and the Shubham scene. Later on a huge set at Binny Mills, the introductory song of Vijay was being shot. It was choreographed by Vijay’s opening song specialist Asok Raj, who has done many of his hit songs.Ayngaran Music will be launching the Villu audio on December 15. The music of Devi Sri Prasad is going to rock.

Both Vijay and Prabhu Deva are trying to recreate the magic of ‘Pokkiri’ with their current film ‘Villu’. While ‘Pokkiri’ was the remake of a Telugu film starring Mahesh Babu, ‘Villu’ reportedly is inspired by the Hindi film ‘Soldier’ that starred Bobby Deol and Preity Zinta.

Vijay will be seen playing a double role in the film (a father and son). The son who is the protagonist of the story would go all out to clear his dad’s name from some malicious charges. While Nayantara would play the son’s arm candy, yesteryear heroine Ranjitha has been roped in to play the wife of Vijay (Daddy).

Going by Vijay’s films of late, ‘Villu’ will also have the exact proportions of action, songs, sentiments and larger-than-life heroism that is bound to win at the end.

The last time Vijay played a double role was for ‘Azhagiya Tamizh Magan’ which proved to be a damp squib at the box office. When ‘Azhagiya Tamizh Magan’ was released many reviewers felt that double roles are not meant for Vijay. Let’s see if Vijay can prove them wrong with ‘Villu’.

Actress Ranjiythi performing a Big Role in villu
Yesteryear heroine Ranjitha, introduced by director Bharathiraja in ‘Nadodi Thendral’, plays Vijay’s mother in ‘Villu’. It may be recalled that yesteryear heroine Geetha played Vijay’s mother in ‘Sivakasi’ and Simran did the same for Surya in ‘Varanam Ayiram’. Now it is Ranjitha’s turn to take up a senior role. The actress, who had been part of several films in the early 1990’s, ventured onto the small screen after her marriage. Now she is back to play Vijay’s mother in the silver screen. ‘Villu’ directed by Prabhudeva, features Vijay in dual roles and Nayanthara plays his ladylove. she plays some stunning role in arjun movies and acted movies in different roles from A to Z.
