Vishal plays Walter Vanagamudi, who is basically a thief and travels doing stage shows in villages along with his half-brother played by Arya. Vishal’s avatar in the film has an almost tonsured head, eyes sans eyelashes and a squint. Vishal reveals that the first response that Bala had on seeing him were tears of joy in his eyes!
Refuting to rumors suggesting Vishal’s role as a Thirunangai (eunuch), the actor clarifies that he does not appear as a eunuch and was surprised seeing such stories doing the rounds. Vishal has revealed that unlike the other Bala films which are too serious with not much scope for comedy ‘Avan Ivan’ will be a surprise for the audience. The actor has also revealed that the final twenty minutes of the film will bear the Bala stamp. Vishal seems to have bagged the role of his life with Bala’s new offing ‘Avan Ivan’. The actor who has completely altered his looks for the film is quite happy with his hard work for the film because of the results it has reaped.
