Vijay’s Velayudham will be kick started on the 15th of July. The shoots, however, will happen a day later at the AVM Studios bus stand set. Vijay is back after wrapping his Siddique directed comedy flick Kaaval Kaadhal, with Asin in the lead. Post production works are on for Kaaval Kaadhal.

Velayudam is directed by Jeyam Raja and is the remake of the Telugu hit Azad, released a few years ago. The movie will have Genilia and Hansika Motwani playing Vijay’s lead women.

Vijay’s fans are expecting his next release Kaavalkaran, which is directed by Siddique. The movie is nearing completion and in comes the news that the title is not Kaavalkaran but it is Kaaval Kaadhal. It may be recalled that there were widespread speculations in Kollywood that there could be a title change. So it is Kaaval Kaadhal, finally.

Kaaval Kaadhal is the remake of the Malayalam film Bodyguard, for which Siddique had donned the director’s robe. The film has Asin playing Vijay’s love-interest.

Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay has almost completed his 51st film Kaaval Kaadhal with Asin and is all set to commence work on his 52nd. The film titled as Velayudham to be produced by Aascar Ravichandran and directed by Jeyam Raja will have Hansika Motwani and Genelia D’Souza as Vijay’s on screen partners. Velayudham is the remake of Telugu Azad which featured Nagarjuna and is said to deal with the serious issues that are plaguing the common man and the solutions for the same. It appears that the film may be laced with political flavor.

The launch of Velayudham on 15th July will be a unique one but in a very grandiose manner akin to any political function. The event will be held at the Madras University Centenary hall and more than 10,000 Vijay fans will be gracing the occasion. The caring star that Vijay is, he would be distributing colorful T shirts and biriyani packets to each and every fan who attends the function. A novel launch indeed!

The title of Vijay-starrer Kaavalkaran has been changed to Kaaval Kaadhal, which was reported a few days ago. The reason for the name change is cited to be the objection raised by Sathya Movies, which owns the title and other rights of the 1967-released Kaavalkaran. MGR and Jayalalitha had starred in this film.

Sathya Movies had sent a letter to the Producers’ Council stating that it had not parted with the title of Kaavalkaran and hence the name should not be used for the Vijay-starrer. Following this, the title has been changed to Kaaval Kaadhal.

The theatre owners had decided that they would not render support to any of the Vijay’s forthcoming releases because of the losses they had incurred in screening Sura and the actor was asked to compensate for the losses.

When Vijay was informed about this, he had said that he would revert to them with a compensation package. However, with several days passing by after this announcement was made, there is no word about what the actor intends to do to the theatre owners. This has once again irked the theatre owners, who are planning to convene a meeting to decide on the future course of action. The most likely solution that they may arrive at could be a ban on Kaaval Kaadhal.

Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay’s 51st film Kaavalkaaran is in progress but there appears to be a small spoke in its wheels. As is known to all the film buffs, Kaavalkaaran is the remake of Malayalam film Bodyguard directed by Siddique. The producer of the Malayalam film Mr Johny Sagarika has filed a case in Saidapet court today that the remake rights of the film are with him and Siddique cannot proceed with the film as he has not bought the same from him.

While reacting to this, Siddique was visibly surprised about the events as Johnny is a good friend of him. He also stated that he has bought the rights of the film. On the other hand, looks like Kaavalkaaran is only the working title of the movie until another title is finalized.

Pasanga Pandiraj’s next project Vamsam is well underway and shows signs of a late 2010 release. According to the industry buzz, the audio release event of Vamsam will be held in Sathyam, Chennai on July 2, 2010.

The event will be chaired by the Chief Minister, who will also release the movie’s audio. Joining him on the dais will be Suriya and Vijay who will receive the first CD from the CM. Vamsam has Arulnidhi from the CM’s family playing the lead and Sunaina is paired opposite him. The movie is scored by Taj Noor.

Ever since Gemini Film Circuit bought the Telugu and Tamil remake rights of 3 Idiots from Vidhu Vinod Chopra, there is widespread anticipation about the lead roles. In Kollywood, rumours suggest that actor Vijay will play the role of Aamir Khan in the Tamil version. Madhavan has already made it clear that he is open to reprise his role in Tamil as well.

The latest buzz is that Kollywood’s prominent director Shankar may direct the Tamil version after completing his big budget extravagance Endhiran with superstar Rajinikanth. Sources add that the director will make some changes in the script to suit the tastes of Tamil audiences.

3 Idiots is the highest grossing Hindi film in Tamil Nadu, where it has managed to gross a record Rs. 1.65 crore from 22 screens in its very first week. National wide, the film is said to have grossed about Rs. 240 crore in just 10 days.
