The villain of Sura, Dev Gill says that he has become very close to Vijay during the shooting of the film. Recalling how he bagged the offer, Dev says that it was Vijay who had insisted that he be offered the role after seeing his performance in the Telugu smash hit Magadheera.
The actor was initially apprehensive of taking up the role but it was Ilayathalapathy that gave him the confidence. “Our relationship was initially very professional but during the course of the shoots we became close friends,” says Dev.
