There is no harm in supporting humanity. Criticizing the government does not mean going against the nation.

Hmm. A different spin .. Rajini was chosen first.

Indiaglitz, first broke the news of Ulaganayagan Kamlahassan reprising the role of Mohanlal, the Malayalam superstar, in the Tamil remake of the laletten's recent super hit film Drishyam. Jeethu Joseph who directed Lalettan, one of India's much acclaimed actors, in this critically acclaimed film is second time lucky for calling shots for Kamalhassan, who is equally acclaimed as great actor and also a renowned director.

The film is also being remade in Telugu with Venkatesh playing the lead role and Joseph is directing the Telegu version as well. Plans are underway to take the script to Bollywood.

Meanwhile Jeetu Joseph has told in a recent interview that his initial choice for playing the role of George Kutty a father of two teenage girls was Superstar Rajnikanth. Superstar, who has recently completed his part in the film Kochadiiyaan directed by his younger daughter Soundharya is said to have heard the script narrated by Joseph and liked it. However the star had apprehensions about the few scenes since he felt that they may not be suitable for the liking of Tamil audience. Hence he politely refused the offer.

After that, Joseph narrated the script to Kamalhassan. The star who is currently busy shooting Viswaroopam 2, the sequel to his 2013 super hit film Viswaroopam is said to have liked the script and instantly gave the nod to star in it.

Joseph also said that, Kamal who is also a renowned script writer, has assured that he will make a few suitable changes in the script. Joseph ended his interview stating that he will sit with the multi-talented star and finalize the changes in the script very soon.

நன்றி.


கமலின் "ரசிகர்கள்" இந்த அளவும் கூடப் புரிதல் இல்லாதிருப்பது, அவர்கள் ரசிப்பதாக சொல்லப்படும் கலையின் நுட்பத்தையே கேலிக்குரியதாக்கி விடுகிறது!

You are hilarious. You try to stereo-type one actor fans fall in a particular character or of such . You need to understand any fan-base has a SPECTRUM of people. from idiots to geniuses. If you dont understand such basics, it is not worth discussing anything with you!

[thamiz]

Thank you!

Periyar did not give up "Dravida Naadu", which practically meant Separate Thamizhnaadu until his death.

Anna's most famous Speech in Parliament in the mid 1960s reinforced that tamils still believed that "the reasons for Secession from the Hindian behemoth - are still valid, even though DMK leaves out Seccession from its proclaimed agenda"

So, please take your kiddish rattlings elsewhere!

Who is acting kiddish geno?

If periyaar and annaa lived today, they would have become "back-stabbers" in your good book by now! That is the fact. Your expectations and anticipation are NOT going to be satisfied by anyone in the world. So, they all will become back-stabbers in your good-book, UNLESS they are dead already!

I think the people i was trying to put my pOv did get the general drift of it; and they would know i would leave it at that, unless any new development comes in.

As for you, you completely missed it or looking for some timepass! ensoy anyways!

The Ulaganayagan 'remake instinct'


Ulaganayagan Padma Bhushan Kamal Haasan has always been lauded for his efforts to take Tamil cinema and Indian cinema to the next level, with his experimental attempts and daring films. He has been active in the industry for many decades as an actor, singer, director and producer. His knowledge of the other facets of film making is also astounding.

Kamal has also been at the forefront in choosing the right films to remake and present to his native Tamil audiences. Over the years, Kamal's remake films have all been mighty successful and have managed to replicate the impact and reach of the original films.

Films like Kuruthipunal (remake of Drohkaal), Vasool Raja MBBS (Munnabhai MBBS) and Unnai Pol Oruvan (remake of A Wednesday) were all much-loved by the audiences in Tamil Nadu and the film makers who made the original films would have been happy with the way their works had been remade and repackaged for a different set of audiences.

Now, with the news of Kamal associating himself with the remake of the recent Malayalam blockbuster Drishyam, this trait of Kamal working on the right remakes has been brought into focus yet again. Already fans are of the opinion that Kamal is the right person to replicate Mohanlal's performance from the original. Drishyam has been minting money at the box-office ever since its release thanks to glowing reviews from almost everyone who has seen it.

Here's hoping that Kamal strikes gold with the remake of Drishyam too, and keeps his streak of successful remakes intact.

சமூக அக்கறை உள்ள கமல் காங்கிரஸ் அரசை எதிர்த்து குரல் கொடுக்க வேண்டும் என்று நினைப்பது சரியே. ஜானகி விருதை நிராகரித்ததால் ஏற்பட்ட சலசலப்பு வெகு சீக்கிரம் அடங்கி விட்டது. ஆனால் இலங்கை தமிழர்களுக்கு நேர்ந்த கொடுமைகளுக்காக விருதை வாங்காமல் அதை எதிர்த்து குரல் கொடுத்தால் கமல் பல பிரச்சனைகளை சந்திக்க வேண்டியிருக்கும்.
சிக்கல் என்று வந்தால் அதை சமாளிக்க அவருக்கு யாரும் துணை வரப்போவது இல்லை. ஒத்தையாக எவ்வளவு நாள்தான் சண்டை போடுறது.. ஒரு வேளை அடுத்து பாரதிய ஜனதா ஆட்சிக்கு வந்தால் எல்லாத்தையும் கொட்டி தீர்ப்பாரோ என்னவோ? பொறுத்திருந்து பார்ப்போம்.. .

For kamal, Refusing to accept padma is not a huge issue - Kamal could have even refused privately and someone would have just leaked that out later.

The point that he is taken seriously enough to be expected to symbolically represent Thamizh Angst - is a measure of the respect that he has, is an implicit pointer. Most ppl miss it!

That he is caustically criticized for not doing it is the exasperation of people who have seen him tear into the Hindutva wolves during Feb.1998 right after the bomb blasts at Kovai; and his deliberate acquiescence to congress lobbies is at the heart of this exasperation.

I lost many personal friends because i criticised/argued/fought against BJP/Hindoo goons, during that incredibly charged atmosphere of Feb 1998 in TN. One who had really seen and felt it, would realise the point am driving home.

And BJP ascended to power the very next month and conducted the Pokhran tests in May 1998, which resulted in India being sought to be economically barricaded by western powers and denied many Trade-commerce ventures. One such venture was Kamal's then ongoing "Maruthanaayagam" which had to be shelved - because French/british and American governments refused to clear any tie ups in production ventures in india, in any field.

Kamal gave so many acidic interviews against the Hindutva parivar at that juncture, and this forced him to make his classic anti-hindutva, with his unmistakable dravidianesque narrative, "Hey Ram" after Marudhanaayagam was dropped because of Pokhran Tests.

That Kamalhassan - now refuses to symbolize the tamil angst against congi sponsored Tamil genocide in eezham, and even refuses to give even a passing remark against the Koodankulam nuclear plant - being imposed upon TN people.

That's exactly why he has almost completely lost the Moral standing to "karuthu sollify" in any future discourses.

Kamal Haasan to do Drishyam`s Tamil version


Director Jeethu Joseph will direct the Tamil version of Drishyam,
produced under the banner of Suresh Balaji and George Pious`s Wide
Angle Creations, with Kamal Haasan playing the lead. The shooting of the
film has been scheduled to start during June this year.

Jeethu
Joseph said: "We just signed the film and I am back in Kochi after
meeting Kamal Haasan. The shoot will start in the second half of the
year and the rest of the cast and other details are being worked out."





Drishyam has been a
phenomenal success and is regarded as the highest grosser in Malayalam
ever. The Telugu version of the film is being made with Venkatesh in the
lead.

Jeethu had the option of directing the
Tamil and Hindi versions. The talks on the Hindi remake are on and
sources inform that there have been some discussions already with a few
prominent Bollywood stars.

ஜஸ்டிஸ் வர்மா, ஜானகி எல்லாம் அவார்ட் வாங்கிக்கலனா அதை யாரும் பெருசா பேச மாட்டாங்க சார்... கமல் அவார்ட் வாங்கிக்கலைனா எல்லாரும் (நியூஸ் சேனல்ஸ்) அதைப்பத்தி பேசி பிரச்சனையை பெருசா ஆக்கிடுவாங்கங்கறது என்னோட கருத்து. அதனால் வரும் பிரச்சனையை நினைத்து தான் இந்த விருதை அவர் வாங்கிக்கிட்டார்-ங்கறது என்னோட அபிப்ராயம்..
"இந்த விருதுக்கான தகுதி எனக்கு இப்போ இல்லை.. இனிமேல் விருதுக்கு தகுதியானவனாக என்னை மாற்றிக்கொள்ள வேண்டும் "-நு அவர் விட்ட அறிக்கை sarcasticஆ சொன்ன மாதிரி எனக்குப் படுகிறது..

உங்க கருத்தில் பாதி உடன்பாடு இருக்கு...

வேற ஒரு நாள் இதைப்பத்தி பேசுவோம்...

CR,

I understand.. we will definitely be given a context to discuss this in another realm, another time, By Kamal himself
