The fans are boss!

The fan wars between the admirers of Ajith and Vijay need no introduction. It is known that both the actors have been striving hard to satisfy hordes of fans across the globe. Interestingly, both camps have developed an admiration for directors who make hit flicks to their matinee idols. AR Murugadoss has become a favourite for Vijay fans as he had given two blockbusters Thuppakki and Kaththi with the latter in the lead. Seems like it is ‘Siruthai’ Siva for Ajith fans now!

The filmmaker, who started his career in Tollywood, directed Ajith in Veeram, which was a moderate success. His latest outing with the actor, Vedalam, is running to packed houses, and it is no surprise that the star’s fans expect another film with the same combination. With such directors who know the pulse of fans, and make films with the prime motive of satisfying the audience, it seems like fans ‘own’ the directors these days!

Moreover, filmmakers these days take to social media through their verified accounts before the opening of a film itself, to generate the hype — and after release also — to thank audiences, and connect directly with ‘hardcore fans’ in as personal a manner as possible. Rumours are already doing the rounds that Siva and Ajith are coming together for another flick, which is likely to take off next year. So, it looks like the game is well and truly on!
