Brinda – Vijay Is A Choreographer’s Delight
The one person who impressed surprisingly Brinda is Vijay. Talking about the super star, the ace choreographer is marvelled at his personality who in real life is completely different from the big screen hero.
It was with film ‘Minsara Kanna‘, Brinda revealed that, she first met Vijay and what surprised her so much was that the actor was very silent and wouldn’t speak much. “Even when we choreograph he wouldn’t react much. But once the camera started rolling he was altogether person. I wonder from where that energy comes. Something magic happens,” remarked Brinda.
She recalls the time when they were shooting for the film in Switzerland, news came in that she had won National Award for Malayalam film Daya. Unexpected by her, it was actually Vijay who was most excited and was pushing her to do something and celebrate.
Interestingly at a time when dance rehearsals are carried on before the actual shooting, Brinda shared that Vijay doesn’t require it to do. For, he comes directly for the shoot and gives a fabulous output. “What’s impressive about Vijay is that he can easily adapt to dancing styles of different choreographers. For instance, if its Raju Sundaram, Vijay would remarkably follow his way of choreography,” added the choreographer, who gives hats off to Vijay’s knee steps.
As a matter of fact, once when Brinda was shooting in Bollywood, Ranbir Kapoor asked her, “Vijay dances very well, isn’t it?” And on hearing that, the choreographer had her proud moment…















It was Vijay’s show all the way in Hyderabad on Monday night, as the ‘Ilayathalapathy’ of Tamil cinema spoke in Telugu and wowed the audience at the audio launch of the Telugu version of ‘Thuppaki’.
The Telugu version too has been titled ‘Thuppaki’ and it will be released simultaneously along with the Tamil original, on Deepavali day.
Amid thunderous applause from the audience, Vijay was invited on stage and the actor delivered his address n Telugu. “Shankar introduced me to Andhra Pradesh with Snehitudu (Nanban). Now AR Murugadoss is making me more familiar with Thuppakki’, he said.
Expecting the movie to do well in Tollywood, Vijay said the encouragement from the audience made feel like as if was attending an audio launch function n Chennai. Vijay also sang a song on the occasion. AR Murugadoss and Kajal Agarwal also spoke.
