Рокировка. Начало (2012)

Billa II

Дэвид Билла - человек, сделавший сам себя. Жизнь постоянно била его: гибель родителей, вынужденное бегство со Шри-Ланки, бюрократическая система Индии... Но он лишь стискивал зубы и крепче сжимал кулаки. Бил, не дожидаясь, когда ударят. Твердый характер пришелся по душе местному дону Аббаси, и тот приблизил его к себе. Но, лидер по натуре, Дэвид скоро вышел из подчинения и стал опасен для дона. Умение наживать себе врагов вообще оказалось его отличительной чертой: индийский гангстер, индийский коррумпированный политик, русский браток... вот лишь неполный список жаждущих его смерти. Но Билла – это король с львиным сердцем, а убить царя зверей не так-то просто...

Jayan, Yog Japee, Rohit Khurana, Dinesh Lamba, Krishna Kumar, Sricharan, Janaki Sabesh, Madhusudhan Rao and Rahman.

Production

In 2010, it was confirmed that Vishnuvardhan, the director of Billa (2007), had finished penning the script for a prequel, which would star Ajith Kumar as the title character again, and would commence in 2011. The project was officially announced in late 2010, after Ajith Kumar signed up to the prequel and first production poster were published to the media. Further details were disclosed, with Suresh Balaje, son of producer and actor K.

In a turn of events, Vishnuvardhan opted out of the project since his dates clashed with the making of his Telugu film, Panjaa (earlier titled as The Shadow). Chakri Toleti, who previously directed the 2009 film Unnaipol Oruvan, was subsequently signed on by the producers to direct the venture.

With Vishnuvardhan's exit from the project, his script was also scrapped, and Toleti, along with Ajith Kumar, began penning a new script for the prequel. Yuvan Shankar Raja only was retained from the original production team, with the rest of the technical crew being finalised in the following weeks.

From the previous film, the producers made it clear that apart from Ajith Kumar, and Rahman, most of the other characters would not be retained. The female lead role was expected to be handed to Anushka Shetty, but despite media speculation she was not signed on.

Television actor Krishna Kumar, was signed on to play a "dirty cop". In June 2011, Sudhanshu Pandey, a former model who had appeared in several Hindi films, was given the role of a "greying ganglord", who becomes the mentor to the young David, while Malayalam character actor Manoj K. Jayan was roped in for a "key role".
