Remake of the yesteryear hit that starred Rajinikanth, Billa is one of the most anticipated movies this year. The movie will feature Ajith as the Don and Nayantara as his lady love, with Namitha and Prabhu also playing important roles. The movie is directed by Vishnuvardhan, who after a dull Kurumbu, came up with the much liked Arindhum Ariyamalum and the hit Pattiyal.
The old Billa was a remake of the Hindi Don which was played by Amitabh. A year ago Sharukh Khan remade the old Don in Hindi which went on to become a super hit. The Hindi remake directed by Farhan Akhtar had a twist which was totally different to the old movie and many expect that the new Tamil movie will also have some unexpected twists. However, director Vishnuvardhan said that he has given due respect to one of the most liked action films and hasn't made any changes. But he has tried to make the script as stylish as possible.
The action thriller was expected to hit the screens on Diwali, but due to Ajith's ill health the movie was stalled for quite sometime, therefore rumors were afloat that the movie will not make it on time. But the optimistic director says that the one month rest has recharged everyone and they are working extra hard to complete the movie on time. Now almost 70% of the movie has been shot and all the scenes featuring Namitha has been completed. But sources say that scenes with Nayantara are yet to be filmed. It is also said that Nayantara has played a very glamorous role. Yuvan Shankar Raja has come out with some excellent music. Vishnuvardhan and Yuvan's last two combinations Arindhum Ariyamalum and Pattiyal are musically well received and the duo is on their way to a hat trick.
Ajith is rumoured to have played his character very stylishly and the director agreed with the superstar's contention that only Ajith could do justice to the role. And the movie is surely going to come as a Diwali treat to all Ajith fans. All the best to the Billa team.
Stay tuned for more updates!!
