For the last few days, there has been quite a buzz about the mysterious character Anti Bikili among Tamil movie buffs as many Kollywood celebs have been posting about it on their Twitter pages, keeping film lovers on their toes. Later, it was revealed that it has got to do something with an announcement with regard to Vijay Antony's next film.
The composer-turned-actor has now took to his social media page to reveal Anti Bikili song, a two-minute video which offers a glimpse into the intriguing characters in Pichaikkaran 2, the sequel of the blockbuster film Pichaikkaran (streaming on MX Player), which released in 2016.
The project also marks Vijay's debut directorial project. It was supposed to be helmed by Priya Krishnaswamy of Baaram (streaming on Amazon Prime Video) fame, but later, the actor himself decided to wield the megaphone for the movie. The song features him in three looks.
While one of them has him portraying a rich man who comes out of a swanky SUV, the second one has him in the role of a beggar with a mission. The third character he plays has some suspense element attached to it. The highlight of the song is the pulsating background score composed by Vijay himself.
Kavya Thapar plays the female lead in Pichaikkaran 2 which has Hareesh Peradi, John Vijay, Radha Ravi, YG Mahendran and Yogi Babu among others essaying important characters. Vijay Antony Film Corporation, the actor's home banner, has bankrolled the movie which has cinematography by Om Narayan, editing by Leo John Paul and art direction by Arusamy.
The film will have a simultaneous theatrical release in Telugu as well under the title Bichagadu 2. Pichaikkaran was one of the most profitable dubbed films in the history of Tollywood.
