Suriya drops update on Vaadivaasal
We had earlier reported that actor Suriya and director Vetrimaaran will be working in a Tamil film titled Vaadivaasal. The film is expected to be on jallikattu sports, and earlier the makers had released video of Suriya practicing bull-taming.
However, while the project got delayed, and Suriya and Vetrimaaran working on different projects, reports suggested that the film has been shelved. However, speaking to Hollywood Reporter, Suriya confirmed that the project is very much on and will begin once the parties involved finish their other commitments.
“We did two days of shoot. He (Vetrimaaran) is finishing his film Viduthalai and Thanu sir is also waiting. My bulls too are waiting. We should hopefully start soon,” Suriya said. Vaadivaasal is backed by Kalaipuli S Thanu under V Creations banner. The makers are yet to announce the release date of the film.
