Tamannah is the backbone of veeram - Says director Siva

Tamannah is back in K’town after a long hiatus with Ajith’s forthcoming Pongal offering, 'Veeram'. The movie releasing, on January 10, directed by Sirutthai Siva, revolves around Thala who plays Vinayagam. His four haughty brothers are portrayed by Vidarth, Bala, Munish and Sohail. The technical crew sans the entire cast recently met the press. “It’s a wholesome family entertainer,” says Siva who found Ajith’s salt and pepper looks perfectly appropriate for the script. “I had conceived of a rough-and-tough, untamed character in Vinayagam. Hence, I retained his look in 'Veeram' as well. Ajith is being cast in a rural role after a long time,” he points out.
