But, he was happy that the song was now inspiring many people to get the contact details of their long lost friends and contact them.

Vijay Nanban Sucess Party!

Not so long ago Vijay threw a small success bash for his biggie 'Velayudham' that raked in good moolah last Diwali. Now, the Ilayathalapathy threw a private success party for his 'Nanban' team at his villa in Chennai.

The party was to celebrate the success of 'Nanban' that is a clean family entertainer which is running to packed theatre houses. Although the other Pongal release, 'Vettai' is doing good business as well both the films aren't really competing at the BO as the genres are entirely different which is being a boost to both the movies in screens.

After 'Kavalan' Vijay will do 'Velayudham' for Aascar Films Ravichandran. After that he will do a film for master marketer Kalaipuli Thanu. His third film is going to be even bigger for Super Good Films RB Choudary.

Later films from RBC stable like ‘Thullatha Manamum Thullum’, ‘Love Today’ and ‘Thirupachi’ took Vijay to newer heights. When the magical combination starts work again everybody believe Vijay will be back at the top in all glory.

Vijay’s Kaavalan facing various issues!

Vijay-starrer Kavalan is facing one hurdle after the other with various issues plaguing the release of the film. First it was a petition filed by a distributor, Saravanan, over a breach of contract with the producer Romesh Babu.

This issue was sorted out by the parties concerned and when everyone heaved a sigh of relief that Kavalan will hit the screens as planned, the Theatre Owners’ Association threatened not to exhibit the film unless Vijay takes care of their losses suffered for screening his previous films, which were box-office duds.

The latest is a case filed by Gokulam Chit Funds claiming that the producer of Bodyguard, based on which Kavalan has been remade, has given them the remake rights. This case came up for hearing recently and the judge ordered that the film’s release cannot be stayed as sought by the petitioner Gokulam Chit Funds. The case has been posted for further hearing this Friday.

Ilayathapathy Vijay’s Kaavalan is yet again to face one more hurdle. As the film is nearing its release the theater owners association in Tamil nadu decided not to screen the film.

After Sura a disaster at the box office the TN Film Exhibitors Association (TFEA) are not going to screen Vijay’s films until he compensates the losses incurred for his films.

TN Film Exhibitors Association (TFEA) on Wednesday held a conference in Coimbatore which was graced by president M Annamalai and secretary R Panneerselvam has decided not to allot screens for Kaavalan until the actor pays them.

All this seems like Kaavalan slated for Christmas release will not get any screens in Tamilnadu until he pays thirty percent of an expected loss of Rs 9 crores, which will turn up to Rs 3 crores.

Vijay’s ‘Kaavalan’ shooting in VIT College

Ilayathalapathy Vijay’s upcoming film ‘Kaavalan’ is rolling fast on floors of VIT College in Vellore. The film started rolling before 6 months in Chennai and shooting was held in various parts of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The original version ‘Bodyguard’ directed by Siddique featured Dhilip and Nayanthara sharing the screen space.

vijay

Looks like the film’s storyline is similar to Suriya-Trisha starrer ‘Mounam Pesiyadhe’, in which a series of phone calls from a girl changes the protagonist’s life…

The complete first half would travel on the lines of fun, frolic and romance while the second half turns to be more contrast with emotions and poignant romance with an unexpected twist during climax.

Vidhyasagar has scored music for the film while Ekambaram of ‘Iyarkai’ has handled cinematography. The role played by director Siddique in original version will be enacted by Vadivelu in this remake version.

The scenes involving college sequences are being shot at VIT College in Vellore and the shooting will wrap up after this schedule.
