Siddique confirms Vijay’s film

Malayalam filmmaker Siddique, a synonym with movies laced with humour (‘Friends’, ‘Engal Anna’, ‘Sadhu Mirandaa’) has confirmed that he would direct Vijay’s next. He however said “it is Vijay who has to decide as to when the film would go on floors”.

“I had narrated the storyline of my forthcoming Malayalam movie ‘Bodyguard’ to Vijay. It is a blend of comedy and action. Vijay, who was mightily impressed by the knot, assured me that he would act in the Tamil version,” he said.

Stating that work for the Vijay starrer would start only after the release of the Malayalam venture, Siddique said: “He (Vijay) is currently busy with his prior commitments. Hence, it was him who has to finalise the commencing date of the project.”

On his working style, Siddique said: “I would ensure that there is no separate comedy track in my films. Because I believe that humour should coexist with screenplay and not as a separate entity.”
