The title and first teaser of filmmaker Gautham Vasudev Menon's yet-untitled Tamil-Telugu bilingual will be unveiled on August 29 on the occasion of actor Akkineni Nagarjuna's birthday. Nagarjuna's son Naga Chaitanya plays the lead role in the Telugu version of the film, while Simbu plays the lead in its Tamil version. "The makers will be releasing the title and teaser of the film's Telugu version on August 29. It's not clearly known if they will also unveil the title and teaser of the Tamil version on the same day," a source from the film's unit told. The team is currently shooting in Araku valley near Vishakhapatnam. Contrary to reports, the film is not an out-and-out romantic tale. "There's good scope for thrills in the film. It's a love story laced with action," the source said. The film features debutante Manjima Mohan as the female lead for both the versions.
Gautham is Bollywood bound
Following directors Manirathinam and Bharathiraja, it is now Gowtham Menon, who is all set to go to Bollywood. The sought-after director in Tamil cinema would be directing a Hindi cinema early next year starring Saif Ali Khan in the prominent role. Gowtham, who started his career with Minnalae shot to fame with Khaaka Khaaka. His recent Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu starred Kamal Haasan as the hero managed a 100-day run. Gowtham, who is directing Suriya again for a movie titled Vaaranam Aayiram, is awaiting the release of Pachai Kili Murthusaram which stars Sarath Kumar and Jyothika. The director had narrated a story to Saif Ali Khan recently. Impressed with the action--packed story, the actor has agreed to be part of the film.
Gautham on Pachai Kili Muthucharam
Pachai Kili Muthucharam is expected to underline yet again Gautham Menon's talent for a gritty and an urban thriller. The movie is an adaptation of Derailed. Ask Gautham Menon about it, and he quickly retorts that the adaptation is only of the book and not the movie of the same name. There is a tale behind how Gautham came to film this story. The Derailed book was given to him by Anurag Kashyap (whose Black Friday incidentally released this week). Gautham was immediately thrilled at the story and wanted to get the film rights. And as any self-respecting and serious filmmaker would do, Gautham contacted the publishers, but was told that the rights had been sold to Hollywood. Gautham was in a fix. He initially thought that he would do the movie before Hollywood can do it. He went to Sarath, who was waiting for a script that would help him break the cliched action-mass hero mould. Gautham is also confident that his adaptation of Derailed would have a very contemporary Tamil feel. Gautham has told in an interview that Pachai Kili Muthucharam is a Balu Mahendra-meets-Quentin Tarantino kind of film. Among other things, 'Vilai Uyirendraalum,' 'Parundhu' and 'Silandhi' were the titles considered for the movie. Further, actors like Shobana and Simran were considered for the character that Andrea has played.
