Sivaji
shooting spot and the crew were awestruck
when the big B of Indian cinema - Amitabh
walked into the sets. Nope not as a visitor,
but to be a part of the mega Rajini movie.
Did we not tell you about the talks that
were being carried out by Shankar to rope
Amitabh in for Sivaji? Seems like the
talks were fruitful and Amitabh has flown
down from Mumbai to finish the shoots
with Rajini in a Juvenile home in Chengalpattu.
Amitabh
is cast as the mentor and a lawyer
in the movie who helps Rajini during
difficult times. Earlier, shoots were
carried out in the Binny campus in
Chennai in a set constructed to reflect
a prison. Rajini’s scenes as
a prisoner were shot in the location
and as a continuation Rajini and Amitabh’s
combination scenes were shot in Chengalpattu.
The shots of Amitabh, playing a lawyer,
counseling Rajini during his imprisonment
were shot in Chengalpattu.
The crew seemed to be having the time
of their life to be associated with
the biggest name in movie business.
Rajini seemed pleased that Amitabh
has been brought in for Sivaji.
After
the shots, Rajini was seen having a good
time at the juvenile home mentoring the
children. He advised them to have a positive
attitude towards life quoting some of
the juvenile kids who made it big in their
life. He wished them all luck with their
future.
With that Sivaji’s shoots are almost
reaching a closure and a community hall
has been rented out in Chengalpattu for
canning vital scenes of the movie. Shankar
is slating the movie for an April 2007
release and witnessing the phase of the
movie’s progress, that is not too
difficult a target to achieve.
