Vikram has always been a fitness freak. And this quality of him has almost doubled now, as director Suseendran has asked him to gain a 'specific shape' for their forthcoming venture 'Rajapattai', which was launched on Monday.

"Since Vikram is doing the role of a gym boy in the film, Suseendran wants him to put on weight and to acquire the shape of a typical gym boy. Hence the Cheeyan is working hard," say sources.

"Vikram is regularly attending gym sessions near his home. He is practising some tough exercises to get his act right while standing in front of the camera for Rajapattai," they add.

Yuvan Shankar Raja is composing music for the film, which will have Deeksha Seth as heroine. This is first time for Yuvan to work for a Vikram movie. Tollywood veteran filmmaker K Vishwanath is playing a pivotal role in 'Rajapattai'.
