“Vijay redefined the structure of commercial cinema,” says Suseenthiran

As Suseenthiran’s Paayum Puli gears up for release today, the director says the film will not portray any explicit violence despite being a cop subject. “I want to work with stars like Vijay or Ajith. I don’t necessarily think bigger budgets equal a bigger movie. It is about how much effort you put into writing the script,” says Suseenthiran.

“If commercial cinema has changed over the last five years, it is because of how Vijay adapted to changing tastes. He acted in films such as Pokkiri and Thuppakki, and redefined the ‘structure of commercial cinema’ in Tamil Nadu. When Pa. Ranjith is making a film with Rajinikanth in the lead, anything can happen in this industry,” adds Suseenthiran who agrees that he is in talks with Vijay for his next project.
