Gun’tastic Vijay!

Gone are the days when you envisioned Ilayathalapathy Vijay wielding an aruval or hitting goons with his hands. Wonder why we’re saying that? Well, the actor will be hunting down criminals with a gun in hand in both the films he has on hand!
It’s old news that the star will be doing a film with Gautham Menon titled Yohan: Adhyayam Ondru. The pre-publicity posters of the film, carrying taglines like Mission 2: Paris, showcased the star in a slick urban avatar and wielding a gun. And now, the latest is that Vijay will be taking to the gun in his current film with director A R Murugadoss as well!
The film, which starts off in Tiruchendur and goes on to Mumbai, is expected to be a fast-paced entertainer. And when the title is Thoopakki, it’s guaranteed action all the way for Vijay fans.

Kajal on 'Thuppaki'

Kajal Aggarwal thinks that her new Tamil signing is one of the best things that could happen to her. The actress has just begun work on Thuppaki, which is A R Murugadoss’s latest film, which will have her starring opposite Ilayathalapathy Vijay.
“It is my biggest film. I have always wanted to work with Murugadoss sir and Vijay. Now I get to be part of their first film together. What more could I ask for,” gushes Kajal, who knows that she’s bagged what was one of the most sought-after project by most heroines.
And she believes that the role she’s playing in this film is tailor-made for her. “While it is a typical commercial entertainer, my role is just like who I am in real life. She’s full of masti and completely bindaas. This is a very powerful role too, like all of Murugadoss sir’s heroine’s characters,” says the actress, who began shooting for Thuppaki on Friday in Mumbai.
“It was a very nice feeling to be on the sets of the film. Murugadoss sir and Vijay made me feel at ease,” says Kajal, who will be back in Chennai later this month.
