Those who had gathered at the wedding of Chiyaan Vikram's househelp's son recently, had a surprise in store. For Chiyaan Vikram himself walked into the mandapam in style and blessed the couple. Mary has been the househelp at Vikram's house for over the last four decades. Her son Deepak recently tied the knot with Varshini at a temple in Chennai. Vikram, who arrived at the venue in a traditional veshti-sattai, walked straight into the crowded temple, blessed the thali (mangalsutra) and showered his blessings on the young couple. The couple later fell at his feet and took his blessings as well. Those who hadn't expected Vikram to arrive, were in for a pleasant surprise and thronged to get a glimpse of the actor.

In the meantime, Vikram is awaiting the release of Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan. The film, which is an adaptation of Kalki's popular novel of the same name, has Vikram playing the Chola Crown Prince Aditha Karikalan. The star cast includes Karthi as Vanthiyathevan, Jayam Ravi as Arunmozhivarman,  Trisha as Kundavai and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan as Nandini. The film, which will be released in five languages, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi will hit screens on September 30. We hear that the team has planned a promotional tour ahead of the release.  

Vikram will soon begin the shooting for Pa Ranjith's next, which is set in the pre-independence era amid the backdrop of Kolar Gold Mines. The actor will be sporting long hair for his look. The pre-production work is on and Pa Ranjith had recently stated that the film will revolve around a community that has been yearning for respect for a long time. A lot of expectations are riding on the film, since Vikram's last release, Cobra failed to create ripples at the box office. Vikram had played a mathematician who doubles up as an assassin as well. The film was directed by Ajay Gnanamuthu and Vikram had multiple looks in it. After Ranjith's film, Vikram will once again team up with Ajay Gnanamuthu for his next.
