Shanmuga Pandian’s Third Project Revolves Around Jallikattu

Shanmuga Pandian, who is the younger son of actor-politician Vijayakanth, has signed his third movie titled Madura Veeran. Touted to be a rural entertainer, the movie is set against the backdrop of Jallikattu. Shanmuga will play the character of rural youth in the flick.

Talking about the film, he said, “Obviously the 'Jallikattu' theme was the main reason. You would have witnessed Tamil movies where Jallikattu appears in a segment or just as a passing reference. But, Madura Veeran is all about Jallikattu right from the word go. At the same time, the director has infused commercial elements to make it entertaining fare.”

Talking about playing rural youth in the film, the actor said, “Adapting to village lifestyle for this film wasn't a big challenge. I have travelled a lot to villages right from my childhood along with my parents and by myself. I am familiar with the Madurai Tamil dialect as I used to speak to my family from childhood in this slang. But since I play a guy returning from abroad, I was asked to speak in normal Tamil slang.”
