New Delhi: Indian film audiences don’t have much experience of watching prequels, so Ajith Kumar’s ‘Billa 2’ can be an interesting watch for them. ‘Billa 2’ is the prequel of 2007 film ‘Billa’ which was directed by Vishnuvardhan. The new edition is directed by Chakri Toleti who has wielded the megaphone for films such as ‘Unnaipol Oruvan’ and ‘Eenadu’ in the past.
The film’s story probes the history of a dreaded gangster David Billa and finds out the reasons behind his transformation from an ordinary man to a gang-lord.
‘Billa’ was based on a 1980 film by the same name, it also had portions based on 2006 Hindi film ‘Don: The Chase Begins Again’. Nayantara had played the female lead in ‘Billa’ while this time Pravathy Omnakuttan and Bruna Abdullah will be seen opposite Ajith Kumar.
Vidyut Jamwal, who gained fame for his intense acting in ‘Force’, is also doing an important role in ‘Billa 2’.
Despite doing very few films, Ajith Kumar has earned a distinct position in the Tamil film world. This time also the makers are planning to encash his huge popularity that’s why they have planned to release the film in as many theatres as possible. They are eyeing the foreign markets too, especially the USA, where ‘Billa 2’ is releasing in more than 60 screens, second only to Rajinikanth’s ‘Enthiran’.
The music of the film by Yuvan Shankar Raja has already become a rage among youths which in turn will fetch the film benefits at the box office.
Ajith Kumar is the biggest attraction of ‘Billa 2’ and the film’s performance will entirely depend on his portrayal of a people friendly don. The spectators would also love to watch Ajith Kumar performing daredevil stunts that he has done without using a body double.
