The news of Siddique directing Vijay for his Malayalam remake of Bodyguard in Tamil suddenly faded out. But now, from nowhere director Siddique has come out in open explaining the reasons behind the delay in the project.

He says, “We were supposed to complete shooting before couple of months and due to unavoidable consequences couldn’t get it done. Almost 90% of the filming is over and merely three songs and few talkie portions at Railway Station are pending. We aren’t able to get the permission for shooting at Railway station due to monsoon issues and thus the shooting has been postponed to the month of August.”

“Earlier Nayanthara had rescheduled her dates for couple of times and now, I had apologized to her for it. She has cordially signed the scheduling in August. Now Vijay has turned to be busier with other projects and whenever he wishes to start-off, I am ready to sign the deal,” signs off Siddique. - Sampurn Media
