This had attracted a lot of attention as a result
of which the traffic in the area had come to a
standstill. For one, many people did not recognize
her and some even thought that some rich girl
behaving in a weird fashion under the influence
of alcohol. Her dance continued for ten minutes
which came to a stop after she was given the ‘thumbs
up’ signal from the film crew. That’s
when people realized that the public dance was
for a film.
When the matter was probed, it came to light that
Vedhika was dancing for Simbu starrer Kaalai directed
by Tarun Gopi. As per the story, Vedhika is madly
in love with Simbu who does not reciprocate her
feelings but her constant persuasion yields favorable
signal from him which results in her breaking
into a frenzied gyration as a part of a dream
sequence. The director had decided to can this
scene in a busy area and wanted it to be very
realistic. Hence for this purpose he chose Porur
roundtana and had even positioned camera in a
nearby hotel and cinematographer R D Rajashekar
filmed the episode.
