Vadivelu goes back in Time!

‘Vaigai Puyal’ Vadivelu after a brief hiatus is back with a bang as the first look posters of ‘Eli’ released a few days ago had fans raving.  ‘Eli’ is directed by Yuvaraj who also helmed the super hit ‘Tenali Raman’ with Vadivelu.

The shooting of ‘Eli’ is progressing on massive sets erected at AVM studios and sources tell us that the period setting for the current schedule is the 1920s and sequences involved Vadivelu, Rajkapoor and other regular comedians from the Vadivelu camp. The crew had a difficult time keeping a straight face as the scenes shot had a high quotient of comedy in them.

Vijay, 'Puli' & 'Eli'

In 'Vijay-59' to be directed by Atlee, it seems the 'Ilaya Thalapathi' would join forces with the 'Vaigai Puyal' after a long break ('Kaavalan' was their last film together).

"Both Vijay and Vadivelu will be seen as cops. While Vijay will play a top police official, Vadivelu will be his sub-ordinate," sources in the know said.

It is learnt that Atlee met Vadivelu recently and narrated him the storyline. Meanwhile, Vadivelu is now busy playing the lead role in a comedy caper titled 'Eli', while Vijay is busy with 'Puli'.
