Vijay plays a dual role in Bigil - a footballer son and a gangster dad. While the son is named Michael, the middle-aged don is called Rayappan.

Bigil: 10 frames that show Thalapathy Vijay ace the middle-aged North Madras bigwig, Rayappan

Team CE
Rayappan enters the frame in a Kaala-esque sequence, where the goons corner him hoping he is just another 'perusu'.
A ferocious fight sequence follows.
Vijay gets to do the famous Vesthi-fold-jump from Mersal, and pulls it off quite well.
But it doesn't take the gang long to realise that appearances are deceptive as the middle-aged character lands a death blow, coupled with a sarcastic 'senjita pochu'.
Vijay seems to have used a deep mature voice for the locan don character.
'Bigillu', Rayappan roars. The theatre is sure to go into raptures.
The make-up for Rayyappan has been kept to the minimal, which actually works to the character's advantage. The North Madras bigwig feels convincingly real.
There's also the customary eye-closeup for Rayappan.
“Engalukku football ellam theriyadhu aana enga aattam Verithanama irukum!' A wolf-whistle moment for sure.
Vijay as Rayappan aces the swagger walk, this time, inside the court.
Vijay had played the father-son duo previously in Villu and Puli. Both the roles fetched him harsh criticisms. But, going by the trailer, it is safe to say that Vijay has done his homework this time.
