Arun Vijay's first look from 'Sinam' released

Written by : Digital Native

The first look of Arun Vijay’s upcoming cop film directed by GNR Kumaravelan has been unveiled to mark the actor’s 42 birthday on Wednesday. Titled Sinam, the first look was launched by ace director Mani Ratnam.

The film will see the actor donning khaki once again. Incidentally, he had played a cop in Kuttram 23 earlier. However, the star says that playing the cop is different in every film and therefore requires a lot of effort each time.

In an interview with the Times of India, Arun Vijay had said, “In Kuttram 23, I played an ACP, and in Sinam, I play a sub-inspector. There is a lot of difference between these two roles, including the cadre! So, I had to work on body language. I had bulked up for Boxer, but I don’t have to look beefed up for this role. So, I knocked off a few kilos. This cop is fit but does not flaunt his physical strength. I also believe that the characterisation depends on the script, too. Sinam oru yadarthamana padam. It deals with a subject that is need of the hour. There’s a lot of emotion, and also suspense in it."

The shooting began some time ago with the team completing the first schedule successfully. The second schedule is currently on in Chennai. Palak Lalwani plays the female lead in this entertainer with Kaali Venkat roped in for an important role. The technical crew of Sinam will include Shabir composing the tunes and Gopinath cranking the camera. Movie Slides Pvt. Ltd., is producing the film.

Last seen in Magizh Thirumeni’s crime thriller Thadam,  Arun has an interesting line up of films. He has just wrapped up the shooting of Agni Siragugal, which also stars Vijay Antony. He also has a film called Boxer which will see him in an action-packed role. He is also awaiting the release of Karthik Naren's Mafia. Produced by Allirajah Subaskaran under the banner Lyca Productions, the film also stars Priya Bhavani Shankar and Prassana.

Agni Siragugal is a multi-starrer with Arun Vijay, Vijay Anthony, Shalini Pandey and Akshara Haasan in lead roles. The film is being bankrolled by T Siva under his banner Amma Creations.
