Thala Ajith has had a long history of successful double-role and multi-role flicks and memorable films such as Vaali, Citizen, Villain, Varalaru and Billa are shining examples of the star's prowess at pulling off such roles with ease.
His upcoming movie with Gautham Menon also looks like a probable addition to Ajith's illustrious double-role films. The film's shoots recently happened in the outskirts of Chennai along the OMR (Old Mahabalipuram Road) and a little birdie at the location was heard saying that the star was playing dual roles - that of a policeman and also the villain in the film. The film's shoots are mostly being done at night in Chennai and 2 schedules have already been completed. Ajith is currently sporting his natural gray hair and a neat crew cut. We have to see if he would go for another look, if he is indeed playing a dual role as speculated. We will keep you posted. Actress Nayanthara is one of the most sought-after heroines in the southern film industries and she was worked with almost all the leading stars including Superstar Rajinikanth, Vijay and Ajith. However, she has also had her share of controversies, as she was in a couple of relationships with Simbu and Prabhu Deva, but none of them lasted long. Inspired by Nayanthara’s personal life, a Tamil writer named Siva Raman had approached her to write a biography on her life. However, Nayanthara has rejected the offer made by the writer. Nayanthara is currently busy with films like Ithu Namma Aalu, Thani Oruvan and Nanbenda. Superstar Rajinikanth has wished the DMK Chief and the former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, M Karunanidhi, who is celebrating his 91st birthday today. Rajinikanth, who is currently shooting for ‘Lingaa’ in Hyderabad, has called up the DMK leader earlier today, and wished him to have a long healthy life. It is worth mentioning that Supertar Rajinikanth shares a good rapport with the DMK supremo. Our sources also reveal that ace lyricist Vairamuthu has also wished the veteran politician on his special day. The latest buzz doing rounds in the tinsel town is that Tamannah is dating Bollywood director Sajid Khan. The actress is playing one of the female leads in the film Humshakals, which has Saif Ali Khan and Bipasha Basu as well in the star cast. When the rumours were brought to her notice, Tamannah sought to clarify it by stating that Sajid Khan is more like a brother to her; therefore, there is no question of falling in love with him. Explaining further, Tamannah said that though she has had several opportunities in the past to fall in love, she avoided it just to ensure her career remains her priority, at least for now. Prakash Raj is controversy’s favourite child! A very talented actor that he is, Prakash Raj has also had an equal share when controversies are concerned; be it the tiff with an assistant director in Tollywood, due to which a one-year ban was imposed on him, which was later revoked, or the alleged brawl in a flight recently. However, Prakash Raj is not perturbed by all this, as he is set on concentrating on his work. The multitalented actor states that he has worked in over 300 movies so far, which proves that people are comfortable working with him. He added that it is not necessary for him to explain his behaviour to others when they don’t understand him at all. Kannirasi is one movie to watch out for! Yes, sources are buzzing with the news that the film will have cameo by nine leading ladies in Kollywood, which includes Nayanthara, Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Sri Divya, Andrea and Hansika.
Wondering who the lucky hero in the movie is? Well, it is Jai who was seen in films like Engeyum Eppothum and Raja Rani. Wielding the megaphone for Kannirasi will be Vijay Chander, who is expecting the release of his debut flick Vaalu, which has Simbu and Hansika as the lead pair. The filmmakers will make an official announcement on this project soon, it is expected. Lakshmi Rai has undergone a name change. The actress has said in an interview that it is not exactly a name change but she has shuffled Lakshmi Rai to Raai Laxmi. Stating that no one has ever called her Lakshmi as she is either referred to as Raai at home and Lakshmi Rai by others, the actress said that she has been contemplating on the name change for quite some time and has decided this is the right moment to do it. The tall actress has had two hits Mankatha and Kanchana in Tamil. She is now banking her hopes on Sundar C’s Aranmanai and Irumbu Kuthirai, which are due for release soon. During a media interaction in Mumbai where he is to promote Holiday, the Hindi remake of Thuppakki, director AR Murugadoss said that he prefers to work with Vijay yet again as he is an excellent actor with good comedy timing. On the stars up north, the director said that both Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar will be his choice. While Aamir is a complete workaholic, Akshay is a relaxed guy who is not only sincere but also respects the cast and crew immensely, he said. AR Murugadoss had directed Aamir in the Hindi version of Ghajini and Akshay Kumay plays the lead role in Holiday, it may be noted here. As Suriya’s ‘Anjaan’ is fast approaching the finish line, the focus has now shifted to Suriya’s next film, which would be directed by Venkat Prabhu. Updating about the project, lyricist Madhan Karky, who is working on the film’s dialogues, has tweeted “Having super fun working on dialogues for Director Venkat Prabhu’s upcoming project with actor Surya.” Yuvan Shankar Raja has been roped in to score music for the film, while RD Rajasekar will be handling the camera. The movie, which is touted to be of a unique genre, will be funded by Studio Green. Nayanthara and Amy Jackson will play the leading ladies. Director Pandiraj is busy getting the dubbing done for the Simbu and Nayanthara starrer Idhu Namma Aalu. The talkie portions of this film has been wrapped up and all that needs to be shot now are the songs. The song Kaathaga Vandhale, which has been set to tune by Simbu’s younger brother Kuralarasan, will be shot in Kumbakonam on the lead pair Simbu and Nayanthara. The shooting of this song will begin on June 6th and go on for a couple of days, say sources. Kural, who was seen as a child artiste in a couple of movies, will be making his debut as music director with Idhu Namma Aalu. |
