Plot

[edit]

Shakthi is the adopted son of a Madurai-based crime boss, Sivan and is also his right-hand man, bodyguard and driver. Sivan lives happily with his wife, Shakthi, his son Vignesh and daughter Mahalakshmi. Shakthi hates the police force due to a police officer killing his father, who was Sivan's driver, in his childhood. His hatred is such that he hates the khaki colour (which is worn by police in India), Shakthi doesn't let Sivan's watchman to wear his watchman uniform which is of Khaki colour, constantly teases his friend Gopal, who gets selected as a constable, and even loses romantic interest on a woman named Shanthi after he finds out that she is an Inspector.

When Sivan is insulted by Ajay Rathore, a newly appointed police commissioner of Madurai, who wants to wipe the criminal system of Madurai, Sivan forces Shakthi to become an IPS officer to save his crime syndicate and prove the commissioner's words wrong. Reluctantly taking charge as ACP of Madurai City East, Shakthi gives free rein to Sivan and his henchmen, who wreak havoc over Madurai, until one of their activities inadvertently causes a gas leak which destroys a school and some nearby buildings, killing several people, including women and children. The incident, along with the assault of a woman by Sivan's henchmen when she had come to the police station to lodge a complaint against Sivan for killing her husband, shocks Shakthi emotionally and causes him to follow the path of an honest police officer.

Shakti, donning the khaki uniform for the first time, thrashes Sivan's henchmen who assaulted the woman. Shakthi's new person is not liked by Sivan and after a heated argument between the two. A cat-and-mouse game then begins between Sivan and Shakthi, with Sivan and his henchmen, determined to humiliate Shakthi at every opportunity, while Shakthi, assisted by Shanthi and Gopal, tries to rid Sivan's influence in Madurai. Shakthi is soon promoted to the rank of DCP for his success in arresting most of Sivan's gang members and beneficiaries within one night. Later, Shakthi finds out that Sivan's other adopted son, a minister Aadhi Kesavan is plotting to kill Sivan in revenge for Sivan killing his police officer father (the same police officer who killed Shakthi's father) in his childhood.

Since Shakthi had inadvertently thwarted his earlier plans to kill Sivan, he also plans to get Shakthi killed at the hands of Sivan by killing Sivan's son Vignesh and putting the blame on Shakthi for Vignesh's death. Unfortunately for Aadhi, Sivan learns about his plan and reconciles with Shakti, where they fight Aadhi's henchmen and Aadhi. Shakthi beats up Aadhi and gives him to Sivan to kill. Sivan gives Aadhi a choice to kill himself. Aadhi takes up the choice and slits his throat thereby killing him. The next day, at Sivan's house, as per Sivan's request, police come to arrest Sivan and Shakti reluctantly arrests him and they both walk out of the house in resemblance to their father-son walking style.

Casting

[edit]

Upon the completion of Velayudham (2011), Vijay announced his next project to be with Nesan, who had worked in Velayudham as an assistant to director Jayam Raja. The project however commenced only two years later, after Vijay completed three other films.[17][18] Neason described Jilla as a "Madurai-based movie" and also revealed that right from 2009, he had this story line about two powerful characters and their emotional interaction,[19] making it his second directorial after Muruga (2007).[20] Vijay who had several collaborations with R. B. Choudary decided to produce the film.[21] Vairamuthu was chosen to pen the lyrics for a song in Jilla,[22] who would be writing a song for Vijay after 12 years.[23] Malayalam Superstar Mohanlal plays the other leading role when he liked the script and accepted the film.[17][18][24] Raju Sundaram will be choreographing the dance sequences in the film.[25]

Nisha Agarwal was rumored to be performing in the film, but she denied these rumors on Twitter, stating that she had not been approached for a film role.[26] Kajal Aggarwal and Poornima Bhagyaraj were also slated to perform in the film. Gautam Kurup was signed up as the second antagonist.[27] Niveda Thomas said that she would be playing the daughter of Mohanlal's character and sister of Vijay's character.[28] Due to clash of dates, cinematographer Natarajan Subramaniam was replaced by R. Ganesh.[29] During a photoshoot with the main cast, Nesan announced that filming would take place in Madurai, Chennai and Andhra Pradesh, while songs would be filmed overseas.[30]

Filming

[edit]

The opening ceremony for the film was held on 11 March 2013[20] at R. B. Choudary's Chennai office.[31][32] The first schedule of film shooting took off on 13 May in Madurai and Karaikudi with Mohanlal and Poornima Bhagyaraj. Vijay was reported to join by the end of the month, but this didn't materialise.[33] For the next schedule the film crew shifted to a Chennai-based studio where large sets resembling the city of Madurai were built up for the film. In September 2013, it was reported that Vijay and Kajal Aggarwal would be playing police officers in the film.[34]

The fourth schedule of the film was supposed to start on 14 August. However, the shooting got cancelled due to heavy rain.[35] In October it was reported that 80% of the film had been completed with only the song sequences remaining.[36]

Remake plans

[edit]

In a meeting with his fans' association at Srikakulam in January 2014, Chiranjeevi announced that he wants V. V. Vinayak to direct the remake of Jilla (2014) starring himself and his son Ram Charan after the 2014 Indian general elections. It was supposed to be Chiranjeevi's 150th film as an actor.[61] Chiranjeevi opted to choose a script that would reflect the sentiments of Telugu people and walked out from the remake.[62] Charan felt uncomfortable to reprise a role where he has to oppose his father and being dissatisfied with the story, he dropped the remake's proposal.[63]

In late March 2014, R. T. Neason, the director of the original, wanted to direct the Telugu remake bankrolled by Super Good Films. Neason wanted Nandamuri Balakrishna and N. T. Rama Rao Jr. to reprise the roles played by Mohanlal and Vijay in the original respectively.[64] Its possibility was doubtful because of the strained relationship between Balakrishna and Rama Rao Jr. in the past few years.[65] After the release of Gopala Gopala (2015), its co-producer Sharat Marar acquired the remake rights of Jilla and approached Daggubati Venkatesh and Ravi Teja with the proposal of its remake to be directed by Veeru Potla.[66]

In the past, Potla approached both Venkatesh and Ravi Teja with a storyline in July 2014 which upon their consent was developed into a script,[67] which remained in scripting stage according to Ravi Teja as of late September 2014.[68] Kona Venkat was reported to pen the remake's screenplay.[63] Ravi Teja evinced interest to be a part of the remake and the film's production was expected to begin in April 2015.[69] However, there were reports stating that Jilla would be dubbed into Telugu with a duration of 140 minutes including a separate comedy track on Brahmanandam with Vijay.[70] Also, Rama Rao Jr.'s elder brother Nandamuri Kalyan Ram planned to remake Jilla in Telugu with Balakrishna after arranging a special screening for the latter.[71]

The Telugu dubbed version was confirmed in mid April 2015. Tamatam Kumar Reddy and Prasad Sannidhi of Sri Obuleswara Productions acquired the Telugu dubbing rights while R. B. Chowdary was announced to present the film. The deleted track that was shot with Mohanlal, Vijay and Brahmanandam in Tamil was kept in the Telugu version.[72] Shashank Vennelakanti penned the dialogues for the Telugu dubbed version.[73] After considering many other titles, Jilla was retained for the Telugu dubbed version.[74]
