Vikram says Thaandavam happened only because of director Vijays hard work

Though he has played one of the toughest roles of his career in his upcoming filmThaandavam, which revolves around the story of a blind man, Tollywood superstar Vikram gives all the credit to director Vijay for taking up such a serious subject. He said, “Thaandavambelongs to director Vijay! He is clear, very creative and perfect. His hard work for the film is fantastic. This is very different project from our earlier flick,Deiva Thiirumagal”. “Though this is a stylish entertainer shot in London, it has all the qualities needed for a Tamil film,” he added. The film is inspired by the life story of Daniel Kish, an Americanexpert in human echolocation and president of World Access for the Blind organization, and Vikram feels heis a real life hero. “He is a great actor too. He is constantly seeing the world with his ears. This film will definitely introduce the concept of echolocation to Indian audience. I would also like to thank UTV for believing in a different concept like this,” the senior actor said. During the audio launch of the Telugu version of the film,Siva Thandavam, on Tuesday, the hero admitted that he envies his co-star and Telugu actor Jagpathi Babu for his powerful performance in the film. "After comparing our roles, I think Jagapathi Babu has scored over me,” he said.
