My grandma likes Vijay among his generation actors. However she didn't like Thuppakki or Ghilli. But this Pudhiya Geethai continues to amuse her. அப்படி என்னத்தான் இருக்கோ அந்த படத்துல?

I too did like the attitude of vijay in that movie, the message where good have only mortal deaths and not their fames, poorly executed good story material. Nothing to complain, vijay could have gone with big directors, he instead chose newbies he burnt his fingers in few, this is one of them

POSITIVE THINKING is imperative for achieving goals, is what Viswaas' "Pudhiya Geethai" underlines. The end is predictable, but the conviction with which the climax drives home the message makes it interesting.
Sarathi (Vijay) is an incredibly energetic young man — student, businessman, a friend in need and a loving son. The bubbling enthusiasm, genial smile that has a shade of innocence about it and the busy-as-a-bee kind of role is rather new for the generally stone-faced, slothful Vijay one is used to watching on screen.
The film gets its title from the fact that the hero expounds on life's philosophy. Suji (Meera Jasmine), a bespectacled dullard, is a friend of Sarathi, till things take a different turn. Jo (Amisha Patel) is again a friend. Predictions at birth clearly indicate that this wizard of a hero would live only till the age of 27. And the story takes off from Sarathi's 27th year.
Vijay presents the character that has a quite a few nuances, creditably. Mention must be made of the scene in which he desperately reels out details about himself, to the doctor, even as he is losing consciousness. The dialogue, in particular, helps make the necessary impact. Suji (Meera Jasmine), who is initially childish, blossoms into a mature girl, once she falls in love. The sudden transformation is unrealistic. And spectacles or no spectacles this heroine is indeed charming. But the same cannot be said of Amisha Patel, who makes her debut in Tamil with "Pudhiya Geethai".
Thin in appearance and artificial in expression, Amisha has not made her Tamil launch memorable.
Reddiar (Kalabhavan Mani), is the stereotyped villain. But the interesting change is reserved for the climax, where Mani makes an impression.
Kalairani deserved better roles, one always thought. The little scope she's been given, she has utilised well in "... Geethai." Sanjay is almost a constant in Vijay's films. As the fisherman friend Lawrence, who is in love with Sarathi's sister, the youngster does a neat job. Nasser in such a miniscule role? — really sad. The mother of the heroine, clinging to her youth, reeks of artificiality.
Dance masters Lawrence and Rajasekar have used some appreciable dance movements in the song sequences. The scene in which the hero falls from the terrace of the college has been well captured. Ramesh Krishna is the cinematographer.
Karthik Raja's re-recording enhances the effect of many scenes, including the fight sequences.
It is a pity that a composer with such potential remains under utilised. Yuvan Shankar Raja's songs, however, don't stir you much.
Unlike many films today, writer-director Jagan's "Pudhiya Geethai" is purposeful.

Most of the weekend Vijay movies are also aired prime time either late afternoon or evening shows.
ILAYATHALAPATHY or SUPERSTAR ¨C Which one does Vijay prefer?
SUPERSTAR - This title in Tamil is the most coveted and most aspired for by actors in the film industry. The title adorns the one and only Rajinikanth now but there are various discussions and speculations as to which hero would qualify for this much popular title in the present generation of actors.
In a recent award function when Ilayathalapathy Vijay was posed a question as to which title he would prefer- the ILAYATHALAPATHY or the SUPERSTAR, the Nanban hero stated, ¡°I am quite happy with Ilayathalapathy. It is the greatest reward when I am called the next superstar. However, I have come into the industry to carve a niche for myself in acting and I am not vying for titles¡±. He also added that there are more artists who have done greater work than him.
The ever humble Vijay is currently busy working in A R Murugadoss¡¯s Kaththi. http://behindwoods.com/tamil-movies-...halapathy.html
I liked his reply to the supestar question.
No one in tamilnadu can ever deny that Vijay has carved a niche for himself in the industry and will end up as one of the most important entertainers, the industry has ever seen.
Hence, he need not eye any former legend's legacy/title/name.
He is creating his own legacy and good to hear from him that he is focusing on 'his' rather than anyone else.
Vijay speaks about Next Superstar title :
Actor Vijay won the Favourite Actor award for his performance in the Director Vijay’s ‘Thalaiva’ given by a popular private channel recently. The actor attended the award held in Chennai yesterday. Director A.R.Murugadoss who is currently working with Vijay for the film ‘Kaththi’ handed over the award to his ‘Thuppakki’ hero.
Speaking at the function Vijay said he did not accept to attend the event just because an award is being give for him. He said he came only because the film ‘Thalaiva’ is being honored in the form of the award given to him. He added that ‘Thalaiva’ is the film that is very close to his heart and it should have done well. It’s the people who should decide whether a film is good or not but circumstances decided the fate of ‘Thalaiva’
The actor also spoke about the ‘next superstar’ that has dragged him to a unnecessary controversy recently. Vijay said he is content with the ‘Ilayathalabathi’ title given by his fans.
To a question on which director he would prefer to work again if given a chance, Vijay said it would be Shankar who directed him in ‘Nanban’ the Tamil remake of Bollywood film ‘3 Idiots’. Vijay also said Kamal Haasan starrer ‘Indian’ is his most favourite Shankar directed film.
