Vijay’s latest song costs Rs 1.25 crore
Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay places great importance on the introductory song in all his movies, but the opening song in Velayudham, produced by Aascar Ravichandran, assumes more significance as it is the first movie release of the actor after his entry into politics.
The buzz is that music director Vijay Antony was given special instructions from director Jayam Raja for the song. Accordingly, the high-action festival kutthu number, which starts with the words Sonna Puriyadhu … Sollukkul Adangadhu … Neenga En Melai Vecchirukkira Paasam was canned with more than 6,000 folk and junior artistes and dancers at Thirumurty Dam near Udumalpet.
While the film cost a whopping Rs 45 crore, the grapevine has it that the song alone cost more than a crore.
Talking to DC, Ascar Ravi said, “The film has shaped up extremely well. Just as Baasha was a milestone in Rajini’s film career, Velayudham will do similar magic for Vijay.”
Asked about the title song, he says, “Yes, we wanted to make it as big as possible and brought about 5,000 junior artistes and more than 1,000 dancers and the best of folk artistes from across the state. The entire village was given a Thiruvizha look by art director Milan. It was shot for about 10 days by dance master Ashok Raja. Each day was like a festival to me because cooking for about 8,000 people for 10 days was not easy. We had booked almost all the nearby hotels in the town and a few marriage halls for their accommodation.”
The prolific producer also revealed that it cost him nothing less than `1.25 crore for the song alone. “But it is worth it!” he exclaims.
