    Atlee Gets Upbeat About His Recently Released Mersal

    After all the brouhaha against Vijay’s Mersal, the film has finally hit the theatres. The movie is directed by Atlee, while Thenandal Films has bankrolled it. Samantha, Kajal and Nithya Menen played the female leads.

    Talking about the film, Atlee said, “I got the title of Mersal even as I was working in Theri with Vijay sir. I sat with Rajamouli sir’s dad and Baahubali’s writer Vijayendra Prasad sir, and worked on the screenplay. During the course of discussion, we stumbled upon another idea which finally shaped into Mersal.”

    He added, “We have touched upon an issue which is commonly faced by people of all walks of life. Vijay essays the role of ‘Thalapathy’ in the retro portions. He hails from Madurai and Nithya Menen essays his pair. These portions are highly entertaining.”

    The movie portrayed Vijay as a magician who learnt the art from Gogo Requiem and Dany Belev. AR Rahman rendered the tunes in the film. SJ Suryah who impressed everyone with his magnificent performance of a baddie in Spyder floored everyone with the same role in this movie also.
