Vijay currently awaits the release of Bigil with director Atlee. The film, which is gearing up for release this Deepavali, sees him playing the football coach of a women’s team. The film, which has been produced by AGS Entertainment, was officially launched last November in Chennai.
A massive football set was built on a budget of Rs 6 crore for the shooting. Meanwhile, Vijay underwent special physical training in preparation for this role, where 16 women will star as sports players alongside him.
