By Ramchander

A perfect platform is ready to showcase the star power of two Tamil stalwarts - Vijay and Ajith Kumar. Come Pongal, Kollywood cine-goers will witness rarest of rare battle at Box Office with Jilla and Veeram releasing on January 10.

Both the movies are special for respective actors but for Ajith Kumar it is slightly different, as he is returning to rural-based movie after doing a series of urban-centric films. Indeed, the actor is trying to have a image make over by doing a tried-and-tested formulaic commercial film.

Industry insiders believe that change in subjects is crucial for the growth of an actor's career for the fear of becoming typecast. Veeram for Ajith comes at an important phase where the actor has to choose a movie that has to satisfy his inner actor as well as his fans with keeping commercial interests in mind.

Ajith Kumar's recent movies like Mankatha, Billa 2 and Arrambam showed the actor in city-based roles wearing stylish costumes. The movies banked on action quotient.

Punch dialogues have always been the main element in A-list actors films. But in some of Ajith's recent movies, people hardly found powerful one-liners, as the actor was not keen on forcefully adding it in the script. But for Veeram, he has okayed it because his fans love to see him mouthing punch dialogues.
