The groundwork for Vijay’s
50th film has already begun. It
has been confirmed that Perarasu
will be directing the movie which
will be produced by Sangili Murugan.
The cast is yet to be decided though
there have been speculations that
Sneha has been signed up to play
one of the two heroines in the movie.
But the immediate problem facing
the team is the title. It had earlier
been reported that there were plans
to use the title of a yesteryear
MGR starrer, or a catchphrase from
any one of his hit songs for this
movie. Vijay himself is reportedly
very keen on having his 50th film
titles as ‘Enga Veettu Pillai’
after MGR’s cult hit. Acquiring
this title might not have been problem
in the normal course of things.
But, the problem is that this title
has already been registered by Sundar
C. So, Sundar C’s permission
will be required for this title
to be used for Vijay’s film.
There are also reports that there
are many other prospective takers
for this title in Kollywood but
Sundar C is very keen to retain
it.
Vijay, who is currently out of station,
is expected to meet Sundar C on
his return to the city and negotiate
this matter in order to use ‘Enga
Veettu Pillai’.
What’s in a name, we tend
to think. But in Kollywood, especially
when it comes to landmark films
like the 50th, the title does seem
to be of very high importance.
