Hansika and Genelia's role in Velayudham

The groundwork for Vijay’s next film Velayudham, which is produced by Aascar Ravichandran, is on. The film’s director Jayam Raja has the script ready so that he could begin this project once Vijay completes Kaavalkaran.

It is not a secret anymore that Velayudham is a remake of the Telugu smash hit Azad, which had Nagarjuna, Soundarya and Shilpa Shetty playing the lead roles. The buzz now is that Genelia will play Soundarya’s role, which happens to be that of a journalist in Velayudham. Needless to say that Shilpa Shetty’s role has been bagged by Hansika. The music for this film is being scored by Devi Sri Prasad.
