The two time Tamil Nadu State Film Award winner Vijay, who is currently shooting for A.R. Murugadoss 'Thuppakki', in Mumbai, was roped in by director Prabhudeva for a friendly jig with Akshay Kumar in the street anthem 'Chinta Ta' from the action-entertainer 'Rowdy Rathore'.
Prabhudeva was keen on having the Tamil actor,singer and dancer Vijay who he had directed in the successful movie 'Pokiri', to do a cameo in the film. On learning that Akshay Kumar was part of the song, Vijay who is his huge fan jumped at the opportunity .
Vijay says 'I have always been a fan of Akshay since his Khiladi days...The promos of 'Rowdy Rathore' are very interesting... Prabhudeva just had to ask me once and I readily agreed. They were very friendly and I won't ever forget the experience shooting for the song.'
Directed by Prabhudeva, starring Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha, UTV’s 'Rowdy Rathore' produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and co-produced by Shabinaa Khan promises to break the stereotypical boundaries of the action genre and is scheduled to release on June 1st, 2012.
