The Vijay-Murugadoss combo is ON again ... Is it Thuppakki 2?

Feb 27, 2013
The media has been abuzz with news that the Thuppakki combo of Vijay and director A.R.Murugadoss is joining hands again for a project. Murugadoss has now confirmed this bit in a recent statement by saying that he and Vijay had even discussed about their future project. This won’t be Thuppakki 2 as widely expected by fans, but a different project about which other details have to be worked out in the coming months.

Vijay is currently busy with Thalaivaa and Jilla after that, while Murugadoss is occupied with the Hindi remake of Thuppakki featuring Akshay Kumar and supposedly titled Pistol.

This development has got Vijay fans jumping in excitement indeed.

Latest: Vijay has been paid an advance by Ayngaran for the ARM project.

Wow. This is moving on so fast. Vijay still has one more film he hasn't even started on. Paid in advance. Looks like Ayangaran really wants this bad.

And hope ARM chooses Rahman or Yuvan for music though everything points to HJ :(

HJ not composing for the Hindi version of Thuppakki is a good sign.

Great news.

BTW HJ was not that bad. His music was OK in Thuppakki especially the BGM. People went crazy in theater whenever theme music started though it was used many times in the movie.

Most people felt songs were not up to the mark barring Google Google.

Super news.. Ellam nalla padiya nadakanum nadandhu mudindadhu pola..

THE THALAIVAN OF HEARTS
Vijay's meteoric rise to the top is testimony enough that a warm heart,generosity and the gumption to do whatever it takes will surely put one in the driver's seat of life. Be it his dancing, his political views, quiet evenings with friends or dealing with back-biters, he has a unique understated approach for it all Amitabh Bachchan sir is one of my favourite actors. There is a certain sense of Statesman like aura. He carries himself with such dignity. I once recieved an award from him and it is still one of the most memorable days in my life
At a time when a hero's longevity is fragile, Vijay has made an example of his staying power over two decades. Celebrated as Ilayathalapathy by his fans, he is the darling of the masses, scaling greaterheights of popularity with every film of his. Known for his monosyllabic interactions with the media, Vijay has always shown a certain warmth to DC, especially when he visited the office sometime back and even sang for its staff.
Vijay's youthful looks at 38 are hard to miss, especially after having been in the film industry for more than two decades. He replies even before one can complete the question! “My wife Geetha (his short form for Sangeetha) keeps me happy . As an actor I have to be away from home sometimes for months together. She takes care of my home, kids and shoulders the strain of this, so that I can do my work peacefully. She does the balancing act perfectly. All credit goes to her.“
Vijay has his own way of reaching out to the masses thrice a year. He conducts the weddings of the poor and promotes education. Is his philanthropy a prelude to a larger role he has in mind for the future? “No long-term plans of any such sort,“ he retorts. “It gives me immense joy and contentment when I indulge in such activities.“
After Superstar Rajinikanth, industry pundits say that Vijay touched the 100-crore mark with Thuppakki. Does that scare him or make him happy?
“It's heartwarming,“ he says, after a pause. “Perhaps it was possible because of a change in release pattern and size, the multiplex boom,youth thronging to theatres, the huge marketing efforts that have contributed to this new trend. Is it scary? No, not really, but it makes my responsibilitie s greater as audience expectations soar.
The Velayudham star performed a single number in Prabhu Deva's Hindi film, for which he has become the toast of Bollywood. Will this metamorphose into pursuing B'town films?
“Absolutely not! I am happy where I am. It was just a cameo appearance for my friend Prabhu Deva. I was shooting in Mumbai for Thuppakki when Prabhu Deva made a surprise visit to my sets. He didn't say anything but just invited me to the adjoining set where he was canning a song with Akshay . He wanted me to shake a leg with him. That's how it happened. It was fun and we had a rocking time.“
It's hard not to ask him who he thinks was his most sizzling on-screen jodi: he avoids replying. All he will say is that earlier audiences thought it was Simran.
If given an option to change his career Vijay says he would stick to cinema, maybe as a producer, “but definitely not as a director,“ he says. “It's a major responsibility which I don't want to take right now.“
Responding to his son, Sanjay, shifting loyalties from films to cricket, the doting dad says, “He keeps shifting his choices; one day he says he wants to make it big in films. All the same, he is a crazy cricket buff and wishes to become a cricketer.“ No sooner had Vijay returned home for a break from the shooting of Thuppakki, the first thinghe did was to book tickets in the VIP box for IPL 2012's opening day matchin Chennai. “But my son insisted that we watch the match live only from the gallery stands along with the public,“ he says. “He wanted to enjoy the match in that spirited mood. He literally dragged me to the gallery . After a point, neither was I comfortable nor were the spectators around us. I walked out halfway through, leaving Sanjay there,“ says Vijay . The titles of his films -Thalaivaa for instance -remind one of hi political aspirations. “Well, as miscon strued by many, Thalaivaa has noth ing to do with politics. Neither have led any group in the film! When you watch the film, you will know the title is justified. It's a new genre for both the director and me.“ He is also quick to add, “My fans are my true thalaivargal (leaders).“
Speaking of co-stars, Amala Paul, he says “is a good performer“ while Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan seems to be his all-time favourite actor.
Where does he see himself in the next ten years. “I will be President of America,“ he remarks, lightheartedly.
“Jokes apart, where else will I be?
Only in Tamil films.“
Reminiscing about `puppy love' he thinks for a while and blushes and brushes it off, “I can't really think of any .“
A maturity shines through when he responds to a query about how he reacts to people who talk behind his back. “Very simple! Ignore the ones who talk behind your back, after all they belong there, behind you.“
He regards time as the most valuable thing in his life. “The best thing you could ever give to someone is your valuable time -because you are giv ing something that you never get back,“ he says.
His favourite hangout spot is undoubtedly `home sweet home'. “I like only house parties or in friends' places if not in my own house. I feel , more at ease and cosy when I am at shome or in the houses of close pals.“
The West Coast of America is his preferred holiday destination. “Given I a long break from work, I would pack off to the Pacific Coast.“

Vijay keen on Baadshah remake

http://www.123telugu.com/content/wp-...jay.jpg?0c1f51

Tamil star Vijay is known for his Telugu movie remakes. He has scored a number of hits in Tamil with such remakes and as per the buzz, he is now expressing a keen interest on acquiring the remake rights of Young Tiger NTR’s ‘Baadshah’. The film has been generating a tremendous buzz with its pre-release talk and Vijay has approached Producer Bandla Ganesh through PVP pictures. Discussions are at an advanced stage.
The movie is expected to be a comedy entertainer and Sreenu Vaitla has directed it. Kajal Aggarwal will be seen as the heroine in the film and Suhasini will be seen as NTR’s mother. Navdeep will be seen in a negative role.
Music has been composed by Thaman. The film is gearing up for a massive release on April 5th.

Is this true ???? :-|

This will never happen since he is trying to expand his market in Telugu film industry. Thuppaki fared better there after so many of his dubbed films failed to click.

I personally feel remakes wont work out NOW as a result of globalization.

this story is bullshit. If these media want to make up a story they just use Vijay. Every Telugu movie with top actors release, they automatically write Vijay wants to remake it because he did telugu movie in the past.

might be a publicity stunt to get some hype for baadshah movie :mrgreen::mrgreen:

Same nuisance was happened for NTR's brindavanam too.......:hammer:

theevetti dhadiyanunga ...

Very good interview!

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/e...w/19552989.cms

Ilayathalapthy Vijay may be busy shooting for his films but he still makes time for social causes and charities. And in between his work schedule, he also ensures he spends time with his family. TOI caught up with Vijay for its fifth anniversary issue and chatted about his days as a youngster in the city, his family and more...

How are you as a father?

I am like a friend to my kids. My wife, Sangeeta, handles their studies, etc. My son, Sanjay, and I discuss a lot of things - like he gives me feedback on my films and what his friends say at school. In fact, I always test out my movie songs on him. If he likes a song, then I know for sure it'll be a hit. He loved Google Google... and I knew it would do well. (Smiles) My daughter, Saasha, also watches my films and tells me if she likes them or not.

I heard you hated school and refused to go... and that you were a big Michael Jackson fan so you focused on dancing...

Well, I wasn't interested in studies. (Laughs) Yes, I liked Michael Jackson and used to practice his steps. I enjoy dancing!

And what about college? You dropped out to get into films and your parents weren't happy...

I wanted to get into films and my parents were against it. I convinced my mom and finally she convinced my dad. My dad then felt who best to launch his son than him? So he launched me and here I am.

If Sanjay wanted to become an actor, would you allow him to drop out?

No! I'd tell him that education is important so he must complete college before he gets into his career. I would like my kids to study well. But Sanjay's interests keep changing every month (like any kid) - he recently said he wanted to become a cricketer so I have organized a coach and take him to cricket matches. So we'll have to wait and watch.

Suriya and you were batchmates in Loyola College though in different courses and now colleagues. Were you friends then?

Yes, Suriya was doing B.Com. and I was doing my Vis Com. We used to hang out with our friends in the parking lot and generally catch up there. Then I left college to enter films. We are friends even today, not just then. My closest friends today are, in fact, my friends from college.

Some of the films you have done (like Sura) have been extensively criticized...

(Laughs) Yes, some of the choices were perhaps not right but it's all part of the film business.

How do you feel after joining the Rs 100 crore club? Is there more pressure on you now?

As I told you earlier, I don't understand these figures and numbers. I am happy that Thuppakki hit the Rs 100 crore mark and I hope more Tamil films in future cross that figure. As for pressure, there's always the desire to give my best to every film - after all, so many people put in so much of hard work.

How important is the work you do for social causes and charities?

It's very important and close to me. It brings me a lot of satisfaction to help people in whatever way I can. I am happy to do it.
