Nagma to get married

Nagma has been romantically linked with several stars and a cricketer in the past. But all this turned out to be just rumors, as there was no news about a wedding. The actress, however, now says that she intends to get married soon. However, she was not forthcoming about the details of the groom, sources say.



Nagma has starred in several hit films in Tamil, Telugu, Bhojpuri and Hindi. She then moved on to active politics.

RAMBHA’S grand WEDDING PLANS

Rambha got engaged to Canada-based business man Indran a couple of months ago. The news now is that the wedding is scheduled to take place in Tirupathi on April 8th. The wedding is expected to be a private affair with just a few family and friends attending.



Following the wedding, a reception will be hosted in Chennai on April 11th. The venue for the reception is said to be a popular five-star hotel.

News from Chennai is that Sukanya who got married in 2002 to an NRI Sridharan returned to India right the next year. Since then, she has been focusing on her career and now, she has applied for divorce without consent from her husband and this has raked up an issue.


While the husband has filed a writ, the court for now has ruled it in favor of Sukanya. Though it is a bit of sensitive situation, Sukanya’s fans are all smiles to see her on the small screen and silver screen.

Surya and Jyotika in philanthropic activities

Actors Suriya and Jyotika are recently getting involved in a lot of philanthropic activities. These days, they are juggling with their new parenthood and careers, and still find time to continue their philanthropic activities. The couple has lately been very active with Agaram Foundation, started by actor Sivakumar. The foundation has adopted two schools and is engaged in activities to promote education. It is well known that this couple, in collaboration with Tamil Nadu Educational board, is making a short film to promote education among children in villages and from the poorer sections of the society, especially girls. It also touches upon the subject of autism. The aim of this short film is to promote education and stop these children from dropping out of schools.



This documentary is on the verge of completion and is being eagerly awaited by everyone as it brings together almost all the stars of Kollywood, including Vijay and Madhavan. Though Ajith wanted to participate, he could not do so because of tight schedules plus health problems related to his spine surgery. K.V. Anand is the cameraman; Harris Jayaraj is composing music; Mani Rathnam and Rajiv Menon are also associated with this documentary.



This is Jyotika’s first tryst with the camera after her marriage. She is known to be very much involved with her family, especially with her daughter; so much so that she stopped acting after marriage. But she agreed to do this film to support the noble cause. Ignoring the hot summer, she reported for outdoor shooting for this movie. The film’s shooting began last month with some scenes being shot at Marina Beach. It was a scene in which Jyotika walking on the beach with a bunch of kids.



Suriya, despite being busy with Varaanam Ayiram and Ayan, is giving his best for this documentary. He is planning his schedules in advance and making adjustments so as to be available for this film’s shooting. In fact, the visible happiness generated by working together in this documentary has sparked speculations that this couple might soon act again in a commercial venture too.



The couple has become very noticeable by their noble deeds. Chennai’s citizens have the highest regards for this famous couple in this city. Our city’s high regards for them can be likened to the regards that people had for Rajiv and Sonia or Charles and Diana.

Nayanthara would commit suicide??

Prabhu Deva and Nayanthara shared a special relationship which blossomed into love. This had created quite a flutter in Kollywood because Prabhu is married to Ramlath and has two children.



Both Prabhu and Nayan have neither acknowledged their relationship in public nor have they denied it. Ramlath on the other hand has been running from pillar to post to get back her husband.

Several film personalities from Kollywood intervened to bring in amicable solution between the husband and wife. In one such meeting, Prabhu Deva reportedly told them that Nayan

Prabhu Deva’s ‘Ich’ may change

Two films with fancy small titles are contemplating how that will be received. One is Pushkar-Gayatri directed ‘Va- Quarter Cutting’ and the other is Prabhu Deva directed ‘Ich’. Both films are backed by reputed banners, Cloud Nine Movies and AGS Entertainers respectively.



While speaking at the audio launch function of ‘Va- Quarter Cutting’, Dhayanidhi Alagiri of Cloud Nine Movies categorically said the title of the film is only ‘Va’ and Quarter Cutting’ is just a tag line. He also said ‘Va’ is a clear Tamil title and hoped it will pass through all stipulation and regulations (Read tax exception for Tamil titles).

For the Prabhu Deva directed ‘Ich’ there may be a decision soon to change the title. Apparently people feel the ‘Jayam’ Ravi and Hansika Motwani starrer title is not Tamil enough for obvious reasons. What could be the new tile? Sources say they have a long but catchy title ‘Ennai Vittu Odi Poga Mudiyuma’ under consideration. We like it.

Both the films are at the final stages and will hit the theatres this year. ‘Va’ had its music release last week and ‘Ich’ is all complete but for two songs

Simbu play a small but meaty role with Ajith

It appears that finally, actor Ajith has made up his mind to re-launch his film career and get started with his next project to be directed by Venkatprabhu. Reports say that the actor has conveyed his ‘whole-hearted’ willingness to the actor-turned-director Venkatprabhu to star in his next film titled ‘Mangatha’.

Ajith is said to be in a hurry to complete the film’s shooting before October this year when he would leave for Europe again to take part in the motor car racing championships. Meanwhile, one hears that actor Simbu, a self-confessed fan of Ajith, may also play a small but meaty role in the film.

Simbu, who imitated Ajith’s ‘Billa’ style in his film ‘Silambattam’ which released last year, is to further reiterate his allegiance to Ajith by starring alongside him in the film. Simbu, who has completed almost 90% of the shooting of his ‘Poda Podi’ in Canada, is said to be planning to shoot the remaining sequences in Tamil Nadu.

Though Simbu isn’t the director of the film which pairs him up opposite Sarath Kumar’s daughter Varalakshmi, it’s a known fact that he ‘ghost’ directs most of his films!

Simbhu busy in London

STR aka Simbu aka Silambarasan is reviving one of his pet projects that is laid lame for different reasons at different times. The actor who is also a director is keen on reviving his pet project 'Vaaliban'
Silambarasan currently busy in London shooting for 'Podaa Podi' has started working on 'Vaaliban' revival even as he is busy in London. He has invited all the key probables involved in the scripting of the film to London and is discussing the film.

Sources say, Silambarasan has even completed a photo session for 'Vaaliban' with his favourite photographer specially flown to London.

The story of ‘Vaaliban’ is rumoured to be about the second love of a man who failed in his first. Sources also say the film will have shades of Simbu-Nayantara affair which was a well talked about affair few years ago.

Meanwhile, the buzzing Silambarasan will fly down to Chennai for 20 days of work to complete the under production 'Vaanam'. Soon after finishing ‘Vaanam’ Silambarasan will go back to London for ‘Podaa Podi’ and of course to complete the scripting of ‘Vaaliban’ in London itself.

Vijay’s ‘Kaavalan’ in VIT College

Ilayathalapathy Vijay’s upcoming film ‘Kaavalan’ is rolling fast on floors of VIT College in Vellore. The film started rolling before 6 months in Chennai and shooting was held in various parts of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The original version ‘Bodyguard’ directed by Siddique featured Dhilip and Nayanthara sharing the screen space.

Looks like the film’s storyline is similar to Suriya-Trisha starrer ‘Mounam Pesiyadhe’, in which a series of phone calls from a girl changes the protagonist’s life…

The complete first half would travel on the lines of fun, frolic and romance while the second half turns to be more contrast with emotions and poignant romance with an unexpected twist during climax.

Vidhyasagar has scored music for the film while Ekambaram of ‘Iyarkai’ has handled cinematography. The role played by director Siddique in original version will be enacted by Vadivelu in this remake version.

The scenes involving college sequences are being shot at VIT College in Vellore and the shooting will wrap up after this schedule.

production works for Rajnikanth’s magnum opus ‘Enthiran’ are fast on the heels of production and the film producers are planning to release the film as soon as possible. The film’s promotional campaigns have already kick-started, especially in Telugu and Hindi channels, the teasers of other versions are constantly screened. On the pars, Rajnikanth’s decision about next project is shortly to be decided. According to the sources, Superstar Rajnikanth is expected to kick-start the shooting of ‘Baasha-2’ after the release of ‘Enthiran’.

‘Baasha’ stands out as an exceptional blockbuster in the pages of Tamil Cinema and Rajnikanth is personally showing keen interest on script works for the sequel. It’s all about making sure that the film touches the greatest heights of its prequel.

As of now, Rajnikanth is busy travelling across various parts of Chennai inviting politicians, businessmen and film celebrities for his youngest daughter Soundarya’s marriage to be held on September 3.

Actors: Karthi, Kajal Agarwal, Jaya Prakash and others
Banner: Studio Green Films, Cloud Nine Productions
Production: K.E. Gnyanavel Raja, Dayanidhi Azhagiri
Direction: Susindran
Dialogues: Bhaskar Sakthi
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja

Looks like Susindran had his fingers crossed soon after writing the script. One could really wonder how come producers of Studio Green Films could accept such scripts and Dayanidhi Azhagiri acquiring the rights over the project. The film might be having higher
expectations as Kalainyar TV airs continuous promos and more promotions. But when you walk out of theatres, it’s completely annoying as the film doesn’t offer any in special.

Let’s make it clear this way. The first half is fun-ridden romantic drama while the second half is damn serious. Few may have great likeliness for the first half while others prefer second hour due to its interesting narration.

However when it comes to analyzing the film on whole, ‘Naan Mahaan Alla’ doesn’t carry off anything in unique style. Although, the theme was reported to be on crime rates in Chennai, the filmmaker has completely failed to focus into the central theme. It’s not just about uncovering the real drama of murders like stabbing a person with knife toasted in cyanide liquids. But it is worth master planning on a sketch to stab down an ordinary person. During the penultimate sequence, we see that one of the villain’s friend killing the uncle. In the very next scene, we see them boozing up together. During the climax portion, we see the dons being slaughtered mercilessly. Couldn’t they call out for their henchmen residing in the same area?

Karthi says that he saw the exact culprit when his father was describing his physique and appearance. Well, if so, Karthi could have interrupted his father pointing down that person standing not even 20 yards from them. Of course, even the police commissioner and his constables were present there. If police commissioner was really an intellectual person, he wouldn’t leave the case soon as Karthi asks them to drop the case. The culprits have mercilessly chopped down innocent couple and his father. He should have assigned at least a plainclothesman to watch over his house for security purpose. Again, when the police commissioner is involved in Crime Scene Investigation near Coovam, he is never spotted with gloves. This is completely amateurish. When the bodies of the young boy and gal are found, why do we find just the witness Jayaprakash (Karthi’s father) in most of the sequences and not the parents of victims… The case could have been absolutely solved if their parents had lodged a complaint at police station.

The film has whole lot of drawbacks and if you’re yet willing to watch the film, you can go ahead forgetting these absurdities.

On the positive side, Karthi is good at his performance and often we don’t see actors like him tanning their skin. Mark our words! The actor is sure to make it bigger on charts and will soon hold a prominent place amongst A-league actors. Kajal Agarwal looks cute and steals the show with her beautiful looks. Jayaprakash as Karthi’s father is brilliant while the other actors have come up with flawless performances.

The musical score by Yuvan Shankar Raja is the biggest plus for the film and his background score during second half is far above excellence. Mathi’s cinematography is yet another additional highlighting feature and editing is neat and good.

The film will not entertain the family audiences, especially women and children keep themselves occupied during second half with lots of violence.
