OMG! Arun Vijay to shed 18Kgs for his next

The recently released movie, Arun Vijay’s ‘Mafia Chapter 1’, which is directed by Karthick Naren has been receiving good response from the audience! Naturally, they are now keen waiting to witness ‘Mafia Chapter 2’! Meanwhile, Arun Vijay has signed three films ‘Agni Siragugal’, ‘Sinam’ and ‘Boxer’.

While the other two films are progressing steadily, the first look of ‘Boxer’ was released earlier, and the shooting of the film is yet to begin. Now, as per a report, Arun Vijay has opened up about ‘Boxer’ and revealed that he will be seen in three different physiques in the film. What’s more interesting is that the actor will be seen in a leaner avatar of losing 18Kgs for the climax action sequence.

Boxer is being directed by Vivek, who worked as an assistant to director Bala. ‘Irudhi Suttru’ fame Ritika Singh will be playing the female lead in this film.

For this film, Arun Vijay has trained himself in boxing in Malaysia and Vietnam by the stunt choreographer Peter Hein. The actor was reported saying that ‘Boxer’ is a very difficult and emotional film, both physically and mentally, and a lot of hard work is required for it. Also, Arun Vijay is preparing for it and he will be working to build his body for three different physiques for different parts of the film. The actor has also said that once the filming begins, it will be smooth as he is all set for it.

On other fronts, ‘Boxer’ is bankrolled by V Mathiyalagan under his banner Etcetera Entertainment.

D Imman will be scoring the music for the film, while the cinematography will be handled by Markus A Ljungberg.
