Aari's Noble Initiative Will Help Many Aspiring Film-Makers!
Aari's noble initiative is all set to help thousands of aspiring film-makers and technicians. Since the Nedunchaalai actor had to struggle in order to step into the industry, he has started a company called 'Aarimugam', which will make sure others don't face a similar fate. Aari was not born into a family of stars associated with films and hence faced many hurdles, before making his acting debut. His initiative, he says, will provide a platform for aspiring film-makers and technicians, those who do not have backgrounds. "This will be a platform to help creative people, particularly youngsters, a chance to become part of the film industry. Those assistant directors who are registered with the Director's Union can enrol in this initiative. We are planning to conduct workshops etc., to equip them to become better technicians. Kamal Haasan sir is my biggest inspiration to do something different like this. I registered the start-up today and will be planning other things shortly," Aari told Deccan Chronicle. One of Aari's biggest dreams is to be able to send movies of amatuer directors and short film-makers to International Film Festivals. But his initiative, he says, is only a small effort. "What I've done is a small effort that will help Kollywood take notice of new talent. I know thousands of competent youngsters who are trying desperately to become directors, cinematographers and technicians. Without a 'godfather' or relative, it is difficult to become a part of the film industry," he has said. 'Aarimugam' will also help youngsters approach the right people to get their work see the light. "People don't know where to start and how to approach big banners or successful directors. All kinds of commercial considerations also come into play when you make a movie. You have to talk to the distributors and even finance a film at times," the 30-year-old told the leading daily.
Aari speaks about his initiative Aarimugam
Aari who was recently seen in Maya and Unnodu Kaa will soon be initiating a platform for assistant directors through his Aarimugam Company with a contest for short films. We spoke to the man to get more insight about this initiative. “When I came to Chennai to explore the possibilities of a career in films, there was no one to guide me. Only after two years, I realized that I did not know to act. Nobody even told me this. I took the tough route to hone myself. In today’s scenario, it is fairly easy for independent filmmakers in the industry, as they have the necessary wherewithal to make a short film. But for people who are working as an AD here, it is a tough struggle at every level from getting a producer to listen to their script to getting the necessary equipments to make their film. Producers also are not aware as to who should they trust to invest. There is a gap here and I want to bridge that gap and that’s when this idea was born. If I am able to generate ten quality identities, then producers can listen to the stories from them. அறியப்படாத பல முகங்களை இந்த உலகத்துக்கு அறிமுகப்படுத்தும் முயற்சிதான் இந்த அறிமுகம். (Ariyapadatha pala mugangalai indha ulagathukku arimugapathuthum muyrchi Dhaan indha Arimugaam). I am right now focusing only on Assistant Directors who are holding union card. They are only eligible for the short film contest. The reason why I am focusing on them is that they are the ones who are struggling a lot. Firstly, there will be a grooming workshop which will be chaired by legends from the industry. All the applicants can attend this workshop. It will be a discussion forum and will be a learning process for all. After this, the contestants will pitch the story. A jury will select the ideas and the selected ones will be given the necessary support to make the short film. We will also help them to take their short film to different markets. Aarimugam’s first initiative is to identify 100 talents in all sectors; in this the very first focus would be on assistant directors. We will next deal with other technicians. In this manner, I plan to have a talent pool in every department of film making. So in future, when someone wants an actor or an editor, or a cameraman or a director, I would have everything. If I am able to deliver ten strong directors to the industry per year, it is a great feat. It is equal to giving ten quality films in a year which would be a boon to the industry". Excellent initiative Aari!

Happy April for Kollywood
Finally the slew of bad runs has come to a halt in Kollywood. In the first three months, the box office witnessed just a couple of movies going on to make some profit. Myskin's 'Anjathey' managed a good run while the likes of 'Sadhu Miranda', 'Pazhani' and 'Sanda' among others managed a decent opening. Come April, the fortunes are back in Kollywood. A couple of releases this month managed to witness bumper opening. Dhanush's much-hyped 'Yaradi Nee Mohini' and Jeyam Ravi's 'Santhosh Subramaniyam' have witnessed a terrific beginning. Both the films released coinciding the summer vacation has ushered positive vibes in the industry. With the likes of director Simbhu Devan's 'Arai En 305il Kadavul', Kamal Haasan's 'Dasavadharam' and Vijay starrer 'Kuruvi' ready to hit the screens in the coming days, it is hoped that the industry will rake in more moolah.
