Exclusive : Vijay and AR Murugadoss plan to shift action to a new city

Off late Mumbai has been playing host to some of the biggest Tamil films including the massive hit Thuppakki. Now, for the upcoming partnership of Vijay and A.R.Murugadoss in 2014 the action looks to be shifting to a new city.

Sources tell Behindwoods that A.R.Murugadoss and his team are currently in the City of Joy, Kolkata, scouting locations for what appears to be the Vijay project that’s aiming to take off in early 2014. While this may not be the first instance of a Tamil film being shot in the bustling streets of Kolkata - films like Aadhavan, Majnu and Jay Jay had sequences based in the very same city, but one can expect Murugadoss to show the place in a completely different light.

A.R.Murugadoss will be employing the services of the highly acclaimed young cinematographer George C Williams for this venture and will also be teaming up with a certain other young sensation, Anirudh, for the music making this one of the most eagerly anticipated projects of the coming year.
