Vijay’s 60th film goes on the floors
Even as Vijay’s much-anticipated action film Theri hit the theatres this weekend, the actor has moved on to his next project.
This will be his 60th film and the actor has chosen to team up with director Bharathan, with whom he previously worked in the film in Azhagiya Tamizh Magan. The film was a total disaster and one wonders why Vijay has accepted this project.
