Impressed by story, Vijay Sethupathi turns producer

Tamil actor Vijay Sethupathi, who tasted success in the film industry last year, says he has turned producer with upcoming Tamil film "Aaranju Mittai" because of its impressive storyline.

"I chose to become a producer because of the film's good story. There are no other reasons that forced me to take this step. I really liked the script and therefore decided to produce it on my own. I also plan to produce another Tamil film soon," Vijay told IANS.

In 2013, Vijay scored two back-to-back blockbusters with films "Soodhu Kavvum" and "Idharkuthane Aasaipattai Balakumara".

"I just wish to continue doing good films in 2014 as well. I have two good and different films lined up release," he said.

Vijay has "Rummy" and "Padminiyum Pannaiyarum" ready for release. He is currently working on a Tamil thriller tiled "Mellisai" with a debutant director.
