Vijay's new plan for his Kavalkaran movie

Vijay was the only person shocked after seeing that the trailer of his film Sura was lifted after the 13th day of the release of the film. Sura’s trailer was replaced by Singam trailer.

The film was taken out of the theatres on the 25th day of its release. Vijay who had the knack of making his film run for 100 days in spite of its failures was not able to do this time, though he held the Chennai city rights.

Hence, Vijay has purchased the film Kavalkaran outright. The reason for this that he didn’t want the Sun Pictures to acquire the rights and the second thing is that he wanted to set right the losses incurred by the distributors by releasing Sura. He has planned to act in a film and give the distributors at a low price.

Tamanna: I like Paiyaa movie very much

Director Kannan will be directing a film titled Vandhaan Vendraan after Kanden Kadhalai. Jeeva is doing the lead role. Talks are going on with Thamanna to pair with Jeeva.


There is also talk going on with Thamanna for a film to be directed by Karthik who is an assistant of Selvaraghavan. Karthi is doing the lead role in this film. After Aayirathil Oruvan, Ravindran is producing this film.

Thamanna said,” After Paiyya, Sura and Thillalangadi, I am continuing to get offers in Tamil. All the films I have acted as done well at the box office. Paiyya is also doing well. In all the Tamil films I have acted acting in Paiyya gave me a new experience. I liked the film very much.”

நான் விமர்சகர்களுக்கு பயப்படுவதில்லை : விஜய் அதிரடி

சுறா படத்தின் வசூல் மற்றும் அப்படத்துக்கு மக்கள் தரும் வரவேற்பு எனக்கு பரம திருப்தியாக உள்ளது என்கிறார் விஜய்.

இணையதளம் ஒன்றிற்கு அவர் அளித்து பேட்டியில், "சுறா வெளியாகி வெற்றிகரமாக ஓடிக் கொண்டுள்ளது. இது என்னுடைய 50வது படம் என்று எந்த வகையிலும் நான் சொல்லிக் கொண்டதில்லை. இத்தனை நாள் வந்தது போல இதுவும் ஒரு படம். அவ்வளவுதான்.

இந்தப் படம் பற்றி வெளியில் சிலர் கடுமையாக விமர்சனம் செய்திருப்பது எனக்கும் தெரியும். சில வருடங்களுக்கு முன்பென்றால் இதைப் பற்றி கவலைப் பட்டிருப்பேன். ஆனால் இப்போது அந்த மனநிலையில் நான் இல்லை. அதைத் தாண்டி வந்துவிட்டேன்.

என்னைப் பற்றி, என் படம் பற்றிய கடுமையான விமர்சனங்கள் என்னையோ, படத்தையோ எந்த வகையிலும் பாதிப்பதில்லை. என் படம் விமர்சகர்களால் ஓடுவதில்லை. மக்கள்தான் ஓட வைக்கிறார்கள்.

இன்னொன்று விமர்சகர்களுக்கு படத்தை விமர்சிக்க உரிமை உள்ளது. ஆனால் முதல் பத்து நாள் வசூலை பாதிக்கும் வகையில் அவர்கள் எழுதக் கூடாது. இந்தப் படத்தின் சிறப்பு, இதில் உள்ள செய்திதான். இதில் நான் மக்களுக்காகப் போராடுகிறேன்.

சுறாவைப் பொறுத்த வரை, எனக்கு திருப்தி... பரம திருப்தி. அந்த திருப்தியில் மனம் அமைதியாக இருக்கிறது.

என்னுடைய அடுத்த படத்தை சித்திக் இயக்குகிறார். இந்தப் படத்துக்கு காவல்காரன் என்ற பெயர் இன்னும் உறுதியாகவில்லை. விரைவில் அதிகாரப்பூர்வமாக அறிவிப்போம். இந்தப் படமும் என் ரசிகர்களுக்குப் பிடித்த படமாக அமையும்..." என்றார்.

Tamanna speaks to media after Sura success

What are the feedbacks that you are getting on Sura?
Well, Honestly, I never do a post-mortem of my films after the release. I am open to criticism and I take each and every feedback-good or bad in the right sense.
Where did you watch the film?
I watched it on the opening day along with audiences in PVR, Mumbai.
They say you had nothing to do and was just the glamour quotient in the film. Please comment?
I have never planned my career. Everything happened for the good. As a heroine, I can’t afford to be selective and Indian cinema is mainly male-dominated. Unlike Hollywood where scripts are written for heroines, here we just play second fiddle to heroes. And I don’t see anything wrong in it as all top actresses at one point of their career has done the same. As far as Sura goes, it was a pleasant experience for me. Vijay was very sweet. I enjoyed working with the entire unit.
How was it working with Vijay?
I was very excited to be a part of a Vijay film and was looking forward to dancing with him. It’s a pleasure to watch how gracefully and effortlessly he dances. I admire his cool and professional ways.
Were you able to relate to the character of Poornima that you played in the film?
(Smiles) No, I am not so stupid in real life to contemplate suicide if I lost my dog. It is a fantasy character who is unrealistic and funny. I had a blast in the comedy scenes with Vadivel. He used to give me valuable tips and I used to converse with him in my broken Tamil and sign language.
Do you think that you wore a bit too revealing costumes?
No, I have certain parameters when it comes to my costumes. I will only wear clothes, in which I am comfortable. The idea was indeed to look glamorous and Priya Manikandan my costume designer has done a good job. Please remember that even in Kedi till Ayan I have worn glamorous outfits in songs.
You are crowned as the numero uno actress in Kollywood today, after the super success of Paiyaa . Please comment
I am happy to hear that. But frankly, I am not a competitive person at all. I believe in my work speaking for myself. This entire talk of number one or five does not bother me. What really matters is that over a period of time, has your work being appreciated or not? I am always trying to better my performance and learn from mistakes.
So you don’t watch movies of other stars?
Oh yes, I do whenever I get time. Trisha was fantastic in Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya while Kajal Aggarwal was very good in the recent Telugu film Darling.
Are you a fun-loving person?
I am like any other 20-year old girl. When I am not shooting and is in Mumbai I go out for movies, malls and restaurants with my bunch of friends and have a ball.
What would you credit your success to besides God and destiny?
My hard work. I never give up (smiles)

Vijay speaks to media after Sura success

What is your state of mind?
I am happy, at peace.
Sura has been torn by critics. There is always a negative talk about your films for the first three days of release. Does all this affect you?
It mattered to me a few years back but today I have crossed that stage. And bad reviews do not affect me or my film. It’s the audiences who decide the fate of a film not critics. Success or failures don’t matter to me. I take everything in my stride and move on. And I want to make a point to critics in general that they have all the right to point out mistakes in anybody’s films but not try to keep the audiences away from theatres as it affects the all-important 10 day business of any film.
What attracted you to do Sura, your 50th film?
For me, Sura is my next film after Vettaikaran. I never wanted it to be hyped as my 50th film.
There is an underlying message in the film. If you see my last few films, I fight for my love, friend, mother or sister. But here, hero Sura fights for an entire village full of poor, helpless people. I was very satisfied while doing the film and today (smiles) with the collection figures.
The release of every film of yours is an event in Tamilnadu. And Sura has taken a gargantuan opening in Tamilnadu and Kerala...
I owe it all to my audiences. They have supported me and encouraged me. I can’t ask for more. I give my fans due respect because I believe that you cannot be unfair to people who love you unconditionally.
They say that Sura has lot of political anecdotes. Please comment?
It was not deliberate attempt. After the script was complete, we thought that those dialogues were appropriate to the story as the villain is a corrupt politician.

Which is your favourite song in the film?
I like the two songs in the second half- Thanjavoor Jillakkari... and Naan Nadanthal Adhiradi. We didn’t want the normal introductory song and tried a subtle and underplayed Vanga Kadal Ellai.. number. And there is no Kuthu song in the 12th reel like in all my films.
Tell us about your Siddique directed Bodyguard remake from Malayalam?
First and foremost let me tell you assure you that the title of the film is not Kavalkaran as reported. We are yet to title the film. I saw the original and liked it. It has a different script not following the beaten track of my formula films. Small changes have been made by director Siddique but we have not tampered with the basic story.
Is Sanjay doing the role of your son in the film?
(Laughs) Not at all. We have not discussed anything like that at home.
How was it working with Asin after a long time?
She remains the same though she went to Bollywood in between. Her cooperation, dedication and timing is the same.
What about 3 Idiots remake that is doing the rounds?
It’s too early to talk about it. There were some initial talks about it with Gemini films but nothing concrete has been discussed. 

Sura villain Dev Ghill says that Sura will give him a break

Dev Ghill who donned the role of a villain in the super hit Telugu film Magadheera has now acted in the Tamil film Sura which has Vijay in the lead role. While speaking to the media, he said,” I have acted in many films in Hindi. But none of them earned me a good name.

I heard that they were searching for a person to do the villain role in the Telugu film Magadheera. I also went. There were 600 people. I was the last person. When director Raj Mouli saw me he liked me and gave me the offer. I immediately became the villain.

Vijay had seen Magadheera. He had requested director Rajkumar that I should do the villain role in Sura. Initially I moved with Vijay as an actor.
Afterwards this I became his friend. Now we are like brothers. Vijay became so close to me. He removed the fright from me and made me act by speaking Tamil. My role in this film is 45 years old politician. I had come to politics after being a rowdy. After coming into politics I was busy with my family and work.

But at the same time I wanted to achieve something big. Vijay interferes in a work I do. There is a clash between us because of this. Why this problem arises is the interesting stage in this film. I am expecting the release of Sura. This film will give me a break in South Indian cinema. I have got a powerful role in this film. Talks are going on with regard for me to do a lead role in the Hindi film.”

Sura movie Review

Movie
  Sura
Director
  SP Raajakumar
Music
  Mani Sharma
Cast
  Vijay, Tamanna ah, Dev Gill, Vadivelu

The promos looked like it was just another Vijay film. There was hardly any pre-release buzz around the film. However Sura has turned out to be rollicking fun. Yes, it is much better than any of Vijay’s recent films and can be said to be a time pass clean family entertainer.Conviction can bring any formula to life, as proved by the story, screenplay and direction of SP Raajakumar. It is a mass formula movie purely chiselled around Vijay’s larger than life image, and packaged to suit the taste of his fans. The cardinal rule of the game is not to look for logic or reason, just sit back, relax and enjoy.

The story is wafer thin and as old as the Kodai hills. The writer director’s presentation of Vijay’s mass image- punchline dialogues, fights, comedy, terrific dance movements, Amma sentiments, rich girl falling in love with poor boy and songs work with the viewers.
Sura (Vijay) is a daring, dashing do-gooder fisherman who is the savior of Yazh Nagar, a fishing hamlet. He loves his mother and helps the poor and needy like buying a dozen pens from a blind couple who are trying to eke out a living. A rich girl Poornima (Tamannaah), who tries to commit suicide (because her dog has gone missing!) by walking into the sea, is saved by our hero. Yup, she falls madly in love with him after seeing his large heartedness and his kind nature!
Enter villain, Samudra Raja (Dev Gill) an old fashioned smuggler and now a minister. He wants to grab the land where the fishermen huts are situated and build a theme park there. The rest of the story is all about how Sura using his brains and tact defeats Raja’s machinations and walks into the sunset by the sea holding the hands of his lady love.
Phew! This story has been cyclostyled a thousand times by filmmakers down the ages to make Tamil formula films from the days of MGR, Rajinikanth and now Vijay. There is nothing new in the story, but it is all about packaging and the charisma of its hero.
Take a chill pill, and enjoy the amazing screen presence of Vijay, the one man entertainment troupe. Ranging through a wide field of comedy, dance and song, action and son-mother sentiments, the star shines in this outrageous masala dosa of an entertainer that will surely appeal to a broad spectrum of his fans.
Tamannaah like all heroines in superstar movies is pure eye candy- looks cute, wears revealing outfits and dances with him in foreign locales and seems to be enjoying it. The new villain Dev Gill (Maghadheera fame) is menacing and is a welcome addition to North Indian “bad guys in Kollywood.”
Vadivel seems to have run out of ideas and his comedy track sticks out like a sore thumb. Songs of Mani Sharma are apt for the film with Thanjavur Jillakari… being the pick of the lot. Ekambaram’s wide angel shots of the blue ocean are eye catching. The film at 167 minutes could have been trimmed by 10 minutes.
On the whole Sura is a roller coaster ride of pure unadulterated masala.

Most expected film Sura released

The  special show of  Sura was being  at 5:15 am in some theatres in the city. About 25 theatres  screened  this film in Chennai city alone, while about 600 theatres worldwide will showcase Sura.

Sura, which happens to be Ilayathalapathi’s 50th film, is directed by SP Raj Kumar. The film is distributed by Sun Pictures and the songs have already turned out to be a huge hit among the masses.

Sura which is presented by Sun Pictures is all set for release on 30^th April. Thamanna who is eagerly waiting for the release of this film said,” For the first time I am pairing with Vijay in Sura.

People who saw the trailer and advertisements say that our pair is super. People who saw the song Naan Nadanthal say that we both are very stylish. I should be thankful to director S P Rajkumar and cameraman Ekambaram for this. Vijay is a simple type. I will take time to understand the dialogue and then act.

Vijay will waiting patiently and cooperate with me. I should tell definitely about comedy. There will be always importance for comedy in Vijay films. He himself will do a lot of comedy. What else can we expect if Vadivelu joins with him? Rajkumar also told me to do comedy. I got scared.  

How is it possible for me to do comedy with them? But Vijay encouraged me a lot and I acted in these scenes. These scenes have come out well and will be entertaining. About the unit, I always got the best unit in Tamil cinema.

In that way I should say that I am lucky. Whatever problems you have outside, you should forget once you come here. The unit is very helpful in this. The unit is the main reason fro completing Sura on time.”

Kollywood has suffered by chennai super kings

Everything has changed within couple of weeks as the Chennai Super Kings are back in action now. Previously, after losing 4 matches on the row, it was least of all probabilities for CSK to get through the semi finals. Precisely, the producers and distributors of Kollywood were elated that their films can be released with an ease.

But now as the Chennai team is striking back with a big bang, it’s time to rethink. It’s worth mentioning that most of the night shows in both multiplexes and single screens are running scarce of audiences.

On the dot, that could’ve been the only reason why Sun Pictures is opting to release Vijay’s ‘Sura’ after the IPL season. Now, they’re couple of tentative release dates on April 23 and May 1 that will finalized by this weekend.

Vijay's Sura movie release date is April 23

Sun Pictures have slotted Vijay’s Golden Jubilee Sura for April 23, as per trade sources. It will be officially be confirmed once the film is censored and the television promotions start.

The film will be the hottest summer release as there is a big buzz around it as it is Ilayathalapathy’s 50 th film, which his fans are sure going to lap up. Vijay is teaming up with the hot and happening Tamannaah for the first time. Music of Mani Sharma has been well received in the market.
Sura will be releasing big worldwide in over 400 screens. It will also beat the Kerala ban on simultaneous release of other language films coming into force from May 1, if it manages to release on April 23.

Tamanna is the top

Tamanna is among the top actresses in tinselville. Given that most top heroines here are busy pursuing their Bombay Dreams, the gorgeous Tamannaah is getting more and more offers here. Tamannaah, who played her part well in Kandein Kadhalai, the remake of Jab We Met, is truly excited with her just-released Paiyya opposite Karthi.
“God has been very kind to me, and my luck has taken me from one hit to another. 2009 was an awesome and lucky year for me. Three of my four releases were hugely successful at the BO. I got the opportunity to work in good projects and it has been a great learning graph for me. It was pure coincidence and fate. I walked into Paiyya after a major Hindi project of mine got canceled at the last minute. Due to that, I had free dates to accommodate Lingusamy sir’s film,” she said to a leading English daily.
Speaking more about Paiyya, the pretty actress said, “I saw it a couple of days ago with the rest of the unit. The film has been well made and I’m confident that it will work big time with the audiences. Charu (my character in the film) is my best role till date and she’s close to my heart. She is simple but not bubbly unlike most characters you come across in films. An undercurrent of tension runs through Charu, which is expressed in a very subtle manner. She conveys her emotions through her eyes. I’m present in the film from the first frame to the last and I owe a lot to Lingusamy sir. There are just two characters in the film, the guy and the girl. The romance is subtle as the guy falls in love at first sight while the girl takes time to reciprocate his feelings.”
Coming up next for the pretty actress is the biggest film of them all, Sura opposite Ilayathalapathi Vijay! While the movie is said to be a proper mass masala flick, we hear that Tamannaah has upped the glamour in the movie. Then there is Vikramakurdu’s remake with Karthi again, and Aruva with director Hari and Dhanush. In Telugu, she will be seen in Badirinath opposite Allu Arjun and an untitled film with Naga Chaitanya. 

Music Review: Sura

Ilaya Thalapathi Vijay’s 50th movie ‘Sura’ has music scored by Mani Sharma, the man who is supposedly busy with Telugu and Tamil projects. Perhaps being busy, has left him with little time that he has used the tunes of the best of his Telugu hits in this album.
The music will be a delight to the fans of Vijay with a few mass numbers that might excite them and imagining Vijay dancing to the tunes, it will be a visual treat at the theatres.
Mani Sharma has used four lyricists that include veteran Vaali, Na. Muthukumar, Kabilan and Snehan, who all have done a decent job keeping in mind Vijay’s mass image.
1. Thanjavoor Jillakkari
Singers: Hemachandra and Saindhavi
Lyricist: Na. Muthukumar
A youthful and fast song that will definitely match Vijay’s dancing talent. The humming at the back is hum-worthy and will echo in your mind. Hemachandra and Saindhavi add that essential pep in this duet. A noticeable point in the song is the usage of the chorus and the humming in between verses. The beats might remind you of a few songs composed by Mani Sharma before. And just like the trend would be, a few English words in the lyrics have been penned by Muthukumar, making this number youthful.
2. Vetri Kdi Yeathu

Singers: Ranjith and Mukesh
Lyricist: Vaali, S.P. Raajakumar
The song starts of with a composition that conveys a symbol of victory or achievement and then the song has a short stanza talking about the hero. This song is probably this introduction. With a steady tempo, Mani Sharma has used the percussions to good effect, with a catchy tune and the humming of the chorus. Ranjith’s voice is bright as usual and his Tamil diction is flawless. Vaali’s lyrics talk about the hero’s attitude towards life and the society.
3. Vanga Kadal Ellai
Singers: Naveen and Maladhi Lakshmanan
Lyricist: Kabilan
This is a mass number with folk beats and a quintessential Vijay movie song. Nothing really in this song will entertain you. Even the lyrics won’t find your attention and you may even feel déjà vu listening to the music.
4. Siragadikkum Nilavu
Singers: Karthik and Reeta
Lyrics: Snehan
All movie albums these days look like having at least one song with Karthik singing and this song satisfies that craving. A fast paced melodious song between the hero and the heroine, with lyrics about love. The music by Mani Sharma in this one is just another average fare composition. Except for Karthik and Reeta’s voice, nothing is praiseworthy in this song.
5. Thamizhan Veera Thamizhan
Singer: Rahul Nambiar
Lyricist: Kabilan
“Thamizhan Vera Thamizhan…” starts of with a catchy tune and Rahul Nambiar’s voice adds energy to this song. This is basically a paean talking about the hero’s dynamism. With some excellent humming and percussions, this song might see its way in the background of the movie.
6. Naan Nadanthal Adhiradi - Listen here
Singer: Naveen, Shoba Chandrasekar, Janani Madhan
Lyricist: Kabilan
Another hit tune in a recent Telugu movie, Mani Sharma has used the tune effectively for the Tamil version. This song is sung by Naveen, Janani and Vijay’s mother Shoba Chandrasekar. The song starts of with some excellent ‘string’ work and continues with drums that make it a semi-fast song. The string composition is used skillfully in between as well. In between verses, the fillers are just about average and include English lyrics. Lyrics by Kabilan talk about the praises, both the hero and heroine exchange. Over all, a catchy tune.
All in all, as the movie would demand, this album is a mass entertainer that will entertain Vijay’s enormous fan base. Though a few numbers entertain, this album is just above mediocre.

Chennai Super Kings' Failiur is the path of Kollywood's Success

Four defeats in a row and the 2008 IPL finalist Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are virtually out of a semi final berth in IPL 2010!

The local Chennai team’s pathetic performance has made the fans who backed them lose their interest in IPL.
From Super Kings to Super flops has actually indirectly helped K- Wood, as now the focus of the local youth will veer back to Tamil cinema and the summer releases. Says Abirami Ramanathan: “The IPL has not really affected movie business and now with the inglorious exit of CSK, from finding a semi final berth the local flavour in the the tournament will be missing.”
Good news for the industry is that Mayajaal multiplex which was screening IPL matches in its air-conditioned auditorium has stopped screening from last Friday (March 26). As per reports the audiences had dipped following CSK’s poor performance and Kollywood was also not too keen on showing IPL matches on the big screen.
Meanwhile it has given a big boost to summer releases like Paiyya and Sura, which will now take even bigger openings.
