Soundarya Rajinikanth’s Tamil and Telugu film Velaiilla Pattadhari managed to win audience’s hearts when it came out in 2014. Now the makers of the film, starring Dhanush, are back with the sequel, Velaiilla Pattadhari 2 aka VIP 2.
The shooting of VIP 2 began on 16 December 2016 and the first motion poster of the film has just been released. The first film saw Dhanush opposite Amala Paul. But VIP 2 is bigger in scale since the makers have signed famous Hindi film actress Kajol in an important role, although Paul is still very much the actress opposite Dhanush.
The motion poster features Dhanush and Kajol, and their characters seem to be pitted against each other. It also reveals a corporate environment. Going by the peppy background score, the film seems to have a light-hearted feel. Kajol looks especially good in fashionable formal attire.
Kajol has previously acted in director Rajiv Menon's Tamil film Minsara Kanavu back in 1997. The film also starred Arvind Swami and Prabhudheva. It was dubbed in Hindi as Sapnay.
Velaiilla Pattadhari translates to ‘Unemployed Graduate.’ The first film was about a young man who struggles to find a job in the field of his preference.
