Vijay plays a triple role in the film, which is bankrolled by Sri Thenandal Studios. The three roles feature him as a panchayat head, a doctor and a magician.  The film also stars Nithya Menen, Kajal Aggarwal, Samantha Ruth Prabhu as the three leading ladies. Actors S.J. Surya, Sathyaraj and Vadivelu will reportedly play key roles in the film.  Mersal, written by K.V. Vijayendra Prasad and produced by Sri Thenandal Films, will have the Mozart of Madras - AR Rahman - donning the music director’s cap. The album is reported to be launched in August, says The Hindu. “About 65% of the film has been completed, including two songs; one each with Nithya Menen and Kajal Aggarwal. Samantha has already joined the team in Chennai and the film will be completed before July-end, in three more schedules,” a source told IANS. In the first-look poster, Vijay looks enthusiastically ready to take on the bulls in _Jallikattu (_traditional bull fighting festival). The bull fighting images at the background sets that idea. The title literally means stunned and the actor and it looks like ‘Ilayathalapathy’- as his fans adorably call him - Vijay is all set to stun his fans and audience, as reported by The Indian Express.   (With inputs from IANS)
