Vijay,
one
of
the
most
decorated
names
in
Tamil
cinema,
is
in
the
limelight
because
of
his
latest
release
Bigil,
which
has
emerged
as
a
big
winner
at
the
box
office.
The
film,
featuring
him
in
a
new
avatar,
managed
to
impress
critics
and
this
worked
in
its
favour.
Now,
here
is
some
big
news
for
Thalapathy
fans.
During
a
recent
interview,
noted
director
and
Vijay's
father/revered
filmmaker
SA
Chandrasekar
(SAC)
praised
his
son
for
delivering
a
hit.
The
veteran
director
also
said
that
he
will
never
direct
a
Vijay
film
as
the
Mersal
star
is
a
big
brand
now.
SAC,
who
directed
Vijay
in
Naalaiya
Theerpu,
added
that
fans
usually
have
high
expectations
from
the
45-year-old,
which
he
might
no
longer
be
able
to
satisfy.
He,
however,
made
it
clear
that
he
would
love
to
produce
a
film
with
his
son
in
the
lead
in
the
near
future.
Needless
to
say,
these
are
some
sweet
comments,
which
might
create
a
great
deal
of
buzz
among
movie
buffs.
Coming
back
to
Bigil,
it
is
a
sports-drama
that
revolves
around
the
antics
of
a
'rowdy'
coach
while
dealing
with
women
empowerment.
The
film
has
Nayanthara
as
the
leading
lady,
and
this
is
one
of
its
highlights.
Actors
Jackie
Shroff,
Kathir
and
Yogi
Babu
too
are
a
part
of
Bigil.
Interestingly,
some
fans
feel
that
Bigil
has
helped
filmmaker
Atlee
prove
his
mettle,
which
makes
it
a
special
affair
for
all
concerned.
Meanwhile,
Vijay
has
already
started
shooting
for
his
next,
directed
by
Kaithi
fame
Lokesh
Kangaraj.
The
film,
being
referred
to
as
Thalapathy
64,
features
the
Sarkar
star
in
a
new
avatar,
which
might
click
with
all
and
sundry.
It
has
Vijay
Sethupathi
as
the
main
villain
and
this
has
given
movie
buffs
a
reason
to
rejoice.
Vijay
might
also
soon
team
up
with
ace
filmmaker
S
Shankar
for
Mudhalvan
2,
a
sequel
to
the
1996
classic
Mudhalvan
2
that
featured
Arjun
in
the
lead.
