The Tamil audiences were extremely excited for VaadiVaasal, which marks the first ever combination of Suriya and Vetrimaaran. However, the film got shelved after a few delays, and lately, the director hints at why Surya has rejected the film.
As per plan, the film was to start by now, but due to some differences between the actor and director, the project was dropped. Suriya has committed to other films, and Vetri starts a new film with Simbu.
Vetrimaaran reveals the reason for Suriya Rejecting VaadiVaasal
There was a buzz that the reason for Suriya’s exit from Vaadivaasal is that Vetrimaaran did not provide the full script. The actor decided to sign the project only after listening to the full script.
Now, in a recent interview, Vetrimaaran hints it was the reason for Suriya dropping out of VaadiVaasal. This has been the complaint against Vetri in the industry also, that he maintains a success ratio, but the issue is he will not plan the things properly before going to the shoot.
The budget of his films is double the planned one, and the same is the case with the shooting dates as well, because his movies will be on sets for longer days.
Vetrimaaran talks about his working style
Vetrimaaran shared in a recent interview that he does not give the full script to the heroes before shooting. He explained, “I only narrate the major sequences in detail because even I don’t have the complete script at that stage. Before going to the sets, I usually have a draft of around 100–150 pages, but by the end of the film, it grows to 400–500 pages. A lot of changes happen during the shooting process. My first draft is never the final one for the film. Not all heroes will agree to this process.
In the interviews, Vetri Maaran shares his actions very funnily, but changing most of the scenes and delaying the film shoots way longer than expected is not at all good from a producer’s perspective.
