Glamour War between Amala Paul & Ragini

Seems like the glamour quotient is soaring through the roofs on the sets of Thalaiva.The two leading ladies of the movie Amala Paul and Ragini are upping the ante on the glamour factor.They are locked in a two way glamour battle and it almost looks like they are matching each other's performances scene by scene.

We need to go back in time to figure out on what could be the probable cause of them involved in such a battle.Amala Paul who starred in A.L Vijay's Dheivathirumagal apparently has become the director's favourite,she was also seen on the sets of Thandavam even though she was not involved in the movie.Amala Paul was supposed to be the only single leading lady of Thalaiva , now Vijay who has been witnessing the close proximity of Amala Paul and A L Vijay  isn't ready to have only Amala Paul as the only heroine of the movie . He has seen Ragini's performances in the movie and he is totally mesmerized with her capability, rumours say that he has asked the director to make her role equally important to Amala Paul.This didn't go well with the Mallu beauty and ever since she has been made aware that Ragini has been given an extended role she has been trying to match her scene by scene with what she is most capable of.
