A film that is already being billed to a blockbuster even before its worldwide theatrical release next month for Diwali, Bigil, starring ‘Thalapathy’ Vijay under director Atlee had its audio launched last week in a grand gala event. Produced under the AGS Entertainment banner and featuring music by A. R. Rahman, the film is an action sports entertainer and includes a huge star cast among whom comedian Vivek has been cast in a major role. Vivek, who will be seen alongside Vijay in a film almost after a decade when he last starred in Kuruvi in 2008, has now taken to his Twitter page to convey his hearty wishes to the superstar for speaking highly of him during the Bigil audio launch. He further added saying Vijay had expressed a similar kind of enthusiasm in remembering all the people who worked in film while also thanking his fans for their support. In conclusion, Vivek also had words of praise for the event’s hosts Mirchi Shiva and VJ Ramya Subramanian.
