Suriya says that he will act in experimental roles in future. He said, “When Gowtham Menon narrated the roles of student, father, son and army officer in the film Vaaranam Aayiram, I was fascinated.
I had to take a lot of efforts and strain to project myself as a student and army officer. But all these strains and difficulties vanished into thin air when laurels poured in.
In future I will be acting in experimental roles only. I will be acting in the role where I have to strain my physique. Only two songs are remaining to be shot for Ayan. The stunt scene with African Negros was a novel experience to me”. Shocking News: Villu film leaked in Youtube.com?

Simbhu, even though a most gossiped Kollywood guy, has his own reputation in the minds of public. The kind of reputation itself makes to write gossips about him!
"Simbhu is behind Namitha, so he has accepted to act in a movie where Namitha will be in the lead role showing her skin and Simbhu in a guest role" is the new gossip moving around Kollywood!
The news made our heart painful and hence we started our investigation in an idea to bail out Simbhu from being labled as a Man behind females!
When we enquired, we understood that it was in Namitha next movie after her Jaganmohini, Simbhu is going to do a guest role. The movie is titled as 'Jagathalaprathaapan' - title itself says what the subject its going to deal with. The movie is going to be directed by Antony, who is a close friend of Simbhu. Just, for Antony and purely on request from Antony, Simbhu has accepted to do the guest role and nothing more than that.
Even though the picture shown on this page gives some other message, it has no association to Simbhu's guest role.

Unique thing happen in Kollywood, that is, son and daughter watch their dad and mum dancing and indulging in semi-pornographic acting in films.
In turn, dad and mum watch their wards dancing with their pairs for films after they grow up. For people like us who feel shy to touch our own spouse in public, these things are considered as 'Dirty jobs'.
Here is a case, and its about Pandiarajan. Pandiarajan who was a hero once and made his son watch all his duets, is now getting ready to film the duets of his son. Pandiarajan's son Prithvi, acted in a movie, but it failed (Packiaraj tried with his daughter) and Prithvi remained jobless. Now he is doing a movie with Krithika and after that he will act in a movie to be directed by his dad!

A Temple to worship Nayantara !
By : Settu Shankar
After Khushboo and Namitha, now its Nayantara's fans who are planning to build a temple for her to show their love and affection towards their favourite star. The temple is under construction in Aravakurichi by her dedicated fans in the town. The grand opening of the temple is expected to be held in a few months time.
Nayantara though touched by her fans lovely gesture is also embarrassed about the whole exaggerated admiration. Being a fan is one thing but taking it too seriously might result in a devastating situation. One must know where to draw the line. Though they are celebrities but even those shining stars are one amongst us and one should not put them at the place of God.

December 19, 2008
The petition filed by a film distributor seeking a stay on the release of Silambattam was dismissed by the City Civil Court magistrate yesterday. It is now anticipated that the film will be released as per its schedule.
Film distributor Ramamoorthy, in his petition, had alleged that Vijaya T Rajendar of Simbu Cine Arts owed him about Rs. 34.25 lakhs. He claimed that the amount was not settled by Simbu Cine Arts but instead they gave him the distributorship rights of Monisha En Monalisa. Unfortunately this film failed to garner the expected profits.
As per the petitioner’s contention, the amount owed must be settled before the production houses releases its next film - Silambattam. However, the magistrate held that the agreement between the parties did not contain a stipulation to that effect and therefore dismissed the petition.

After the global economic crisis, the Kishore Lulla-owned Eros International which has a stake in Ayngaran International, wanted director Shankar to scale down the budget.
But Shankar was in no mood to reduce the budget, and according to industry sources sankar wanted to move out with his mega budget project. The latest we hear is that the Kalanithi Maran owned Sun Pictures had shown an interest in the project and discussions were held with the director.
Sources close to the deal say it is likely to be firmed up in the next couple of days. But there are rumours that it will not be easy for Shankar to move over to Sun Pictures, as Ayngaran is yet to give green signal, and the project is registered with them.
We hope that the problems get resolved soon and the team starts the film shooting as early as possible.

A suit filed against the release of Silambattam in Chennai seems to have dampened the spirits of the film’s unit. It may be noted that Silmbattam is slated to be released on December 18th, 2008. According to the complainant Ramamoorthy, the film should not be released unless his dues are settled. In the complaint it has been stated that he had financed Rs. 59 lakhs in 1998 to Simbu Cine Arts to facilitate the completion of the film Monisha En Monalisa.
As per the agreement, the amount was to have been settled by giving him the distributorship rights.

Based on this, Ramamoorthy had filed a plaint stating that his dues must be settled by Simbu Cine Arts before they release Silambattam.

The film is also produced by Shakti Chidambaram and for the leading man Lawrence, ther eare about half a dozen heroines namely Meenakshi, Snigdha, Mumtaz, Kaamna, Kiran and Samiksha.
When Shakti Chidambaram decided to cut down on one heroine, he had to make a tough decision on whom to remove from the cast and his choice fell on Samiksha. On being summarily removed like this, Samiksha who had been very happy to be in the film, is rather dejected at suddenly being axed like this.
When asked about this, Shakti Chidambaram say she has made a lot of changes in the story that resulted in Samiksha's portion being unnecessary, and hence he had to remove her from the cast. The unit however has a somewhat different reason for this - that Samiksha did not give way over the 'expected' to the hero and director, hence she was axed from the film.

I have tried to be different in this album. The highlight is a couple of songs in the album rendered by comedians Vadivelu and Kovai Sarala.’
Devi Sri Prasad is happy to work with Vijay again. The two had earlier been part of Sachien. ‘Being part of a Prabhu Deva’s movie is a delight. I enjoyed a lot working with him in Telugu movies’, he said.
He also thanked pop singer Baba Sehgal, who has crooned for a song in the film. ‘When Mumbai was attacked by terrorists on 26 November, we thought Baba Sehgal would not turn up for recording the song.
A committed professional, he managed to make it to Chennai on the day and helped us complete the recording’. Arun Pandian of Ayngaran International was also present on the occasion.

Anshuka in heroine-oriented movie Arundhati
Arundhati, a heroine-oriented movie set in the 1920s and the 21st century, stars pretty and curvaceous Anushka. Directed by Kodi Rama Krishna and produced by Shyam Prasad Reddy, the movie has given an entirely new look to Anushka.

So all you Vijay fans out there….get a feel of what the song is going to be like by following the link below.
The 'Villu' music album will be released on the 14th of this month.
