Vettaikaran, produced by AVM Productions, recently completed its entire shooting with a song sequence in Pune and even got a 'U/A' certificate last week. However, it is yet to be seen whether Vijay would agree to this sudden demand of reshooting as he is busy shooting for his 50th film Sura, being directed by S.P. Rajkumar and produced by Sangili Murugan.
After the disappointing run of his recent films Kuruvi and Villu, Vijay has pinned his hopes onVettaikkaran, based on the story of an energetic young man and his angst against baddies in society. It has music by rock composer Vijay Antony. Cinematography is by Gopinath and editing is by V.T. Vijayan.
The Vijay starrer Vettaikaran seems to be in deep trouble. From what we gather from our sources, Sun Pictures has demanded that a few scenes in the film to be reshot before it could purchase the rights. There is no doubt that Sun Pictures play a pivotal role in promoting a movie to the maximum once it takes it under its wings.
However, the demand to reshoot some of the scenes even after seeing the censored version has put the director in a fix. To top it all, the Ilayathalapathy has shifted his focus on his forthcoming venture Sura and may not be able to allot dates for reshooting.
Sources close to Sun Pictures aver that they are in no mood to take up the film unless the necessary changes are made. Will Vijay bow in to the pressure and concede to the demands of Sun Pictures? Let’s wait for more updates on this issue.
