Vijay is one of the main reasons for Sangamithra to happen: Director Sundar C

Last day, the audio launch event of Vijay’s upcoming movie Mersal held in Chennai. The event was made special with the presence of many celebrities, thousands of fans and a live performance from the maestro AR Rahman. Mersal’s audio launch function was celebrated in such a grand manner for three major reasons- this year marks the 25th anniversary of both AR Rahman and Vijay’s entry to the film industry. Mersal is also the 100th venture of Sri Thenandal Films, one of the most prestigious banners in Kollywood.

Director Sundar C was one of the special invitees for the launch. While speaking at the event, Sundar C revealed that Vijay was one of the reasons why Sangamithra actually happened.

He said, “Eventhough I’ve not worked with Vijay sir, he is the reason for many of my successes. We have had discussions in the past but nothing could materialize due to one reason or the other. I write almost all my scripts keeping Vijay in mind. Even my next big project Sangamithra is happening thanks to Vijay.

He is one of the main reasons for Sangamithra to happen. I went to narrate some ideas to Vijay, he liked one of them and asked me to develop the script. That is Sangamithra. I could not do it then due to the budget and technical constraints. But I’m now doing it with the backing of Sri Thenandal Films.”

Sangamithra, written and directed by Sundar C, was supposed to have Shruti Haasan in the titular role. However, the actress opted out of the project after they had a high profile launch in the Cannes Film Festival.

Jayam Ravi and Arya are playing the male leads in the movie. It is an epic-period film set in the 8th century AD and both the actors are tipped to be playing warriors in the film.

Sangamithra is being planned as the most expensive Tamil movie ever. Sri Thenandal Films is reportedly investing over Rs 250 crores for this massive project. The movie is expected to go on floors by the end of this year.
