Billa 2 on Ajith's birthday?

The release of Ajith's much awaited Billa 2 has been postponed to May due to the new norms from Producers Council which states that big films can be released only during five days a year. According to the new schedule, Billa 2 will now hit screens on Ajith's birthday (May Day).

This prequel is produced under the banner of Wide Angle Creations (led by George Pious and Suresh Balaje) and presented by Mumbai based Sunir Kheterpal, CEO of IN Entertainment (India) Limited, part of the Hinduja Group. Bollywood star Vidyut Jammwal, Sudhanshu Pandey, Bruna Abdullah and Malayalam actor Manoj K. Jayan will play prominent roles in this film, made with a whopping budget of Rs. 35 crores. Billa 2's technical team includes cinematographer Hemant Chaturvedi, editor Sreekar Prasad and music director Yuvanshankar Raja.

Who will choreograph Ajith's intro song?

A lot of buzz is surrounding on 'Billa 2', after its first look posters were unveiled by the producers in view of Pongal. Topping the list is a guessing game as to who will be the choreographer for Ajith's introduction song in the movie.

"The shooting is over but for some patchwork and canning of the title song. Director Chakri Toleti is planning to rope in a Bollywood choreographer to direct the number. Some big names are in the list," sources say.

"Top choreographers of Hindi film industry like Farah Khan (who choreographed a song in 'Nanban'), Ganesh Hegde, Vaibhavi Merchant and Ganesh Acharya are being considered. One of them might bag the prestigious offer," add sources.

'Billa 2', the 51st film of the Thala, throws light on how an ordinary man David became an international gangster Billa. Aptly reflecting the theme of the film is its tagline, which reads: 'Every man has a past. Every don a history.'

GK Media bags Billa-2 in USA

Thala’s films are now the greatest fantasy of global audiences as his golden jubilee movie Mankatha has gained more and more popularity towards him even amongst the non-Tamil speaking community. Thala’s upcoming movie ‘Billa-2’ is still to complete the patch up works in shooting, but the producers are already filling their pockets with profits.

Yes, it has been confirmed by the producers that the overseas rights across the regions of USA has been sold at a whooping amount to GK Media. It is worth mentioning that the same distributors had earlier released Thala’s ‘Mankatha’, which was a blockbuster over there.

Ajith's next with Vishnuvardhan or Shiva?

Now that the shooting of 'Billa 2' is over but for some patch work which will be completed in a few days, 'Thala' Ajith is gearing up to start his next. It will be directed by Vishnuvardhan.

"Actually Ajith has two projects in his hands. One to be helmed by Vishnuvardhan and the other by Siruthai fame Shiva. But Ajith chose Vishnuvardhan since it is a long due to work with him," circles close to the 'Thala' say.

They add: "It was Vishnuvardhan who was to direct Billa 2. But he missed it due to unavoidable reasons. At that time, Ajith promised Vishnu that he would work with him soon. The actor is honouring it now."

Another reason is said to be Shiva being busy with a Telugu film starring Ravi Teja and Taapsee Pannu in lead roles. "The Ajith-Shiva venture will start after May 2012," sources say. It will be produced by Vijaya Productions to mark the centenary of its founder Nagi Reddy.

Ajith's new film starts rolling

As a pleasant surprise to his fans, Ajith has announced his next movie. The 'Thala' who is busy with 'Billa 2', has officially kick started his fresh project, to be directed by Siva of 'Siruthai' fame! The movie is yet to have a title.

A simple pooja was held at the office of the reputed Vijaya Productions recently, in front of veteran B Nagi Reddy's statue. Producers B Venkatrama Reddy and B Bharathi Reddy were present with Ajith.

"The film is produced by Vijaya Productions to mark the centenary year of Nagi Reddy, who was one of the doyens of south Indian film industry. A big budget movie, Siva is keen to repeat the Siruthai magic with this," sources say.

Yuvan Shankar Raja will score the music, while Anushka Shetty is expected to be the heroine. A hunt is on for an apt title and the shooting will start once Ajith completes 'Billa 2', circles close to the development add.
