Chiyaan Vikram one of the highest rated actors in the country turns 57 today and his fans from all over the globe have been conveying their wishes to him on social media. Director Pa. Ranjith and his team as an awesome b'day gift have released a stunning making video of their magnum opus 'Thangalaan'.

The 'Thangalaan' making video has revealed the herculean efforts of the the cast and crew, especially the hero Chiyaan Vikram. The celebrated actor has donned two different getups as the tribal leader, one with a beefed up body and another lean and battered. The shots show that the makeup work itself is a daunting task that takes hours. The team has weathered rocky terrain and rough waters to bring the unique vision of Ranjith on screen.

'Thangalaan' set in the late 18th century Kolar Gold Fields chronicles 70 years of history and the rise of the hero. Extensive filming happened in Hogenekkal and KGF and the team will begin a new schedule of a month long shoot after which it will be a wrap.

'Thangalaan' produced on a massive scale in 3D by Studio Green has music by G.V. Prakashkumar. The film stars Vikram, Malavika Mohanan, Parvathy Thiruvothu, Pasupathi and famous Hollywood actor Daniel Caltagirone. The much awaited epic film is expected to release on a festive date later this year.

Happy birthday to my #Thangalaan, @chiyaan sir 😊
