Vijay request Cheran

In recent days, it seems that actor Vijay, the top star of Tamil film industry, has made it a habit to appeal ace directors to make a film with him. Few weeks ago, he requested Thankar Bachan to create a story, which is suitable to his image as well as with Thankar's nativity. Now he made similar request to Cheran. He made this request at the audio launch of Cheran's Pirivom Sandippom yesterday at Sathyam Complex.

Ilayathalapathi Vijay the released the CDs and cassettes of the film and Prabhu Deva received the same. Vijay said, "I wished to act at least once in a film of Cheran, one of the most talented filmmakers of modern Tamil Cinema. But I thought Cheran will not give such a chance to me. Now, he has become a busy hero and a competitor too." In his reply, Cheran said, "As a director I'm always ready to work with Vijay."

Two songs in Pirivom Sandhipom, the long awaited film of Karu Pazhaniyappan have been shot like a colourful Nattukottai Chettiar wedding album, and those, who have seen the special preview of the two songs at the audio launch are raving about it. After seeing the songs, chief guests Abirami Ramanathan and Rama Narayanan remembered their marriage days, a 30 plus years ago!

Director Karu Palaniappan said: "Pirivom Sandhipom is a family story with real emotions and set against a Nattukottai Chettiar milieu. I don't want to say anything more, watch the film when it is released for Pongal." Parthiban, Madhavan, Vidyasagar, Dharani, Kaliapili G. Sekaran and others attended the function.
