Vetrimaaran’s Two-Timing: Is He Cheating His Own Films?

After the failure of Viduthalai 2, Vetrimaaran has moved on to his next project Arasan, starring Simbu. The film is progressing at a steady pace. Despite recent setbacks, the project continues to generate interest among audiences and industry observers.

Simbu is currently facing a challenging phase with consecutive underwhelming releases. However, Arasan has created strong buzz due to its connection with Vetrimaaran’s acclaimed Vada Chennai universe. Several characters from Vada Chennai are expected to appear in this film.

The film’s shoot faced a temporary halt due to an issue between Simbu and Vels Film International. Although the problem was resolved later, the delay impacted the schedule. During this gap, Vetrimaaran reportedly began work on another project.

The second project is tentatively titled Rajan Vageyra and is believed to be a prequel to Vada Chennai. With both films now in progress, Vetrimaaran is managing a demanding schedule. Reports suggest he is working long hours across both projects daily.

He is said to be shooting Rajan Vageyra during the day and Arasan at night. The tight routine has increased workload significantly. Since both films are backed by Kalaipuli S Thanu and share the same universe, similar sets are being used for efficiency.

There are also reports that Vetrimaaran plans to begin Vada Chennai 2 soon after completing these films. The idea is to finish projects connected to the Vada Chennai universe in one continuous phase, which has caught attention across the industry.

This approach has sparked debate on social media. Many believe Vetrimaaran’s strength lies in detailed storytelling, which usually takes time. They feel working on multiple films together may affect the depth and quality of his storytelling.

As of now, there is no official confirmation regarding Rajan Vageyra. If the ongoing buzz turns out to be accurate, it will be interesting to see how both films shape up and whether Vetrimaaran maintains his usual standards.
