My next is an unusual project and I’ll be showing an unseen side of Vijay: AR Murugadoss

It is already known that Vijay’s next (Vijay 62) after the ongoing Mersal will be with ace filmmaker AR Murugadoss. This will be his third film with the director after the blockbusters Thuppakki and Kaththi, both of which entered the elite 100 crore club. Not much is known about their upcoming movie.

In a recent interview, AR Murugadoss revealed that the duo’s next outing will be an unusual project and he will be showing an unseen side of Vijay in this film.

Murugadoss is one filmmaker who very well knows how to utilize the acting potential and star power of Vijay correctly. Almost all his movies have been money spinners that have also found critical acclaim.

In a recent interview to TOI, the director was quizzed about any pressure on teaming up for Vijay for the third time. He is quoted saying, “While doing Thuppakki, there was a bit of fear because I was making a film with a huge mass hero. With Kaththi, the fear was about matching up to the previous film. Now, it is all about what we can do that will be new? There is pressure, but I consider it as a challenge.”

There are unconfirmed reports about Sun Pictures returning back to production after seven long years by funding this high-profile project. Their last production was the all time blockbuster Enthiran, released back in 2010. Young sensation Anirudh Ravichander is rumoured bd to composing for Vijay 62.

Meanwhile, director Murugadoss is busy with the final patch up works of his Tamil-Telugu bilingual SPYder starring Mahesh Babu and SJ Suryah in the lead roles. The movie is slated to hit screens worldwide on September 27.
