Director Ezhil gave the break that changed Vishnu Vishal’s image from an actor who does only serious roles to proving his proficiency on the lighter side with his rom-com entertainer Velainnu Vandhutta Vellakkaaran. Now, Vishnu is back to Ezhil for a rural comedy, which has been titled Jaga Jaala Killaadi in which Nivetha Pethuraj will be seen romancing him onscreen. The movie is produced by Dusshyanth, the actor turned producer who is the grandson of Sivaji Ganesan. Talking to DC, Ezhil says, “After VVV became a hit, there were a lot of expectations of our combo. I assure you that JJK is a feel good family entertainer and fulfils audience anticipation. The story happens in a town and Vishnu essays Senthil, a business guy interested in agriculture who explores many things like organic farming in fruits and vegetables and marketing it.”
Delving more into the story, he says, “Vishnu lands in a police station for a problem he encountered where he meets the heroine who also comes there to resolve an issue. How they both get entangled and come out of it forms the rest narrated in an enjoyable manner.” Ask him about how he manages a battalion of comedians like Singam Puli, Motta Rajhendran, Yogi Babu, Vaiyapuri, R Sundarrajan, Manobala, Nalini and Ravi Maria in JJK, pat he replies. “It is easier to handle them, provided you earmark their dialogues properly and they are seasoned actors who do their jobs perfectly. So, no hassles (smiles). Like how ‘Pushpa Purushan’ dialogue which turned out to be a huge hit in VVV, here also, I have something to do with a bear, which will instantly catch with the masses.”
