 Joining the long list of Malayalam actresses making a beeline to Tamil cinema is Nithya. She has been chosen by ad filmmaker turned director Jayendra for '180', a movie he is making with Siddharth playing the protagonist. The film is being produced by Sathyam Cinemas. Nithya Menon had earlier acted in Malayalam films like 'Akasha Gopuram’, ‘Vellathooval’, Angel John' and 'Kerala Cafe'. Interestingly, the actress was to do the second lead in Vijay’s 'Kaavalkaran', but reportedly backed out at the last minute due to some unavoidable reasons. Now Nithya will get a launch as Siddharth’s heroine. Meanwhile, the movie's title has been cleared by the Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC). It is to be noted that TFPC is insisting on pure Tamil titles as per government rules to get entertainment tax concession. |
One more heroine from Mollywood
Is it ‘Putham Pudhu Kalai’ for Siddarth?
Only recently we read that Siddarth’s forthcoming bilingual venture, directed by popular ad filmmaker Jayendra and produced by Sathyam Cinemas, has been titled ‘180’, since the title would suit both the Tamil and Telugu versions.
However, fresh reports now claim that the Tamil version would come with a new name ‘Putham Pudhu Kalai’ while the Telugu version would retain the original title ‘180’, thanks to a Tamil Nadu government’s order.
“The decision has been taken to honour an order from the State government that only films bearing Tamil titles would be eligible to get tax exemption,” say sources in the know.
With Priya Anand of ‘Vamanan’ fame and Mollywood actress Nithya Menon playing the heroines, ‘Putham Pudhu Kalai’ is said to be romantic entertainer. The title is inspired by a popular song by maestro Illayaraja in the 1980s.
Kamal to take no chances
 Kamal Haasan who is a man of perfection is going little extra than usual with his upcoming film 'Manmadhan Ambu' with K S Ravikumar. Kamal usually finds it easy to work with K S Ravikumar. That’s because K S Ravikumar usually discusses a story of a Kamal film with his assistants for at least a week before getting the final screenplay ready. If the story is by Kamal himself Ravikumar boldly involves Kamal for changes he requires in the script as the director. But for ‘Manmadhan Ambu’ there are a whole lot of changes being implemented by Kaml and K S Ravikumar. The most important change is maintaining absolute secrecy of the script. According to new plan Kamal invites only three people for the story discussions. They are Director K S Ravikumar, Era. Murugan and Crazy Mohan - Also he has requested the director not to disclose the story development to anybody else including his assistants and associates. The other members of the team will come to know about the story only at the beginning of each schedule. So why is Kamal so cautious like never before? It is to preempt any vicious attempt by persons claiming the story to be his. All most all of recent Kamal films faced a problem before release by unscrupulous person claiming credit for his stories. |
'Manmadhan Ambu' launched
|
IndiaGlitz was the first to report about Kamal Haasan's forthcoming film’s title 'Manmadhan Ambu', the actor launched the movie in Chennai today.
Speaking at a function organised to announce the launch of the flick, which would be produced by Udayanidhi Stalin and directed by K S Ravikumar, Kamal said those who act in stage plays do thorough rehearsals, whereas it is missed in cinema.
"Actors and actresses involved in a film should undergo proper rehearsals before they start shooting. If we take rehearsals seriously before shoots, we can reduce needless expenses in film-making and sharpen acting skills," he said.
"I thank all my co-stars including Trisha, Madhavan and Sangeetha for agreeing to do proper rehearsals." he added. Speaking about the film, he said, "Ravikumar and me share common ideas and it was evident in all our earlier outings (Panchathantram, Avvai Shanmugi, etc). This film will be a lighthearted romantic-comedy and hopefully would entertain fans".
On his part, Ravikumar said, "It is my privilege to work with Kamal again and am also grateful to Udhayanidhi (Stalin) for bringing us together. Most of the movie would be shot abroad, in countries like Italy, Spain and Greece. We should be shooting in a star cruiser."
He said, Kamal would play the role of a romantic youth in the film and there wouldn't be any special get-ups. Cinematography is by Manush Nandan, son of noted journalist Gnani while story, screenplay, dialogue and songs are by Kamal Haasan himself. Devi Sri Prasad will score the music.
Trisha, Madhavan and Devi Sri Prasad, who were present, expressed their admiration for Kamal and said they would ensure that the film would be a grand affair.
Earlier, welcoming the gathering, Udhayanidhi said, "It was my long-time dream to work with Kamal and it has come true with ‘Manmadhan Ambu’. Plans are on to release the film for Deepavali."
