Vinay Genelia pairing in next film

He is like a long lost actor who disappeared after ‘Modhi Vilayadu’. Vinay who made an impressive debut in Kollywood with 'Unnale Unnale' was touted to be the new chocolate boy who would get into Madhavan's shoes.


But lady luck had other plans and Vinay was at her mercy. Even the successful family entertainer ‘Jayam Kondaan’ did not help him much. But Vinay has got a second chance and he hopes to get his things right this time.

Shankar's former assistant and producer-director Madhesh who was waiting for Vijay's call sheet for long has settled for Vinay for his next film. It is a dream offer for Vinay. Madhesh has also roped Genelia to be the leading lady of the film. Santhanam and Ganja Karuppu are also in the film that has finally ended up as a star value film.


An old Rajinikanth film title is being considered and Madhesh is running around to get the required permission to re-use the old title.
