Vijay’s Adi had a shooting schedule in Hyderabad. Vijay was overwhelmed by the number of fans who had gathered to see the shooting. Meanwhile, Tamil sangam in Hyderabad conferred the title “Prince of Tamil Cinema” on Vijay. A visibly happy Vijay stated that he had to thank director Ramana for his new found action image. Thirumalai was the movie which laid the foundation for his second innings.

 

Vijay has been taking extra care in the stunt sequences of the movie. In one action sequence Vijay jumped from a high bridge without any double. In another scene he had to run opposite a speeding train for nearly 2 kilo meters. Vijay did the scene himself even when the tracks were very slippery. Adi’s crew including director Ramana was left speechless by Vijay’s involvement.
