'Srikanth' a new hope

Thrilled by the decent success of his Uyir, Srikanth is optimistic about the prospects of his next Kizhakku Kadarkarai Salai. Being produced by his manager Anthanan, Kizhakku Kadarkarai Salai features Bhavana opposite Srikanth.The movie brings together Srikanth and director Stanley again after their successful outings in April Madhathil and Mercury Pookal. Says Srikanth, 'We have shot a major portion of the movie in East Coast Road. As the title suggests, the road has an important part in the script. Bhavana plays my love interest.' The movie is almost complete and is planned for a September release. Stanlay says that he has projected a different Srikanth in this movie and it will also be in different vein from his earlier other two movies. Remember yesteryear hero Suresh? The man who made his debut in Panneer Pushpangal and went on to act in over 100 films. He plays the baddie in the movie. Srikanth is confident of making it to the top league with Kizhakku Kadarkarai Salai.

Movie's purpose served

An estranged couple buried their ego differences after watching Srikanth, Meera Jasmine starrer Mercury Pookal, a film that had a similar theme. Now Thiruttu Payale does the same. A feuding hubby-wife combo have joined hands after watching Thiruttu Payalae directed by Susi Ganesan which featured Jeevan, Malavika and Sonia Agarwal in the lead roles. While the Mercury Pookal dealt in detail about the rapport that a husband and wife should share, Thiruttu Payalae talked about the faith husband and wife should have on each other. A couple that separated after the wife eloped with her friend has joined hands once again. Thankfully the generous and forward thinking husband accepted her. Susi Ganesan invited them for a dinner and presented them with gifts. Says Susi, "I am thrilled that my movie had served a purpose."

Samiksha's plans

Samiksha, introduced by director Vishnuvardhan in Arindhum Ariyamalum, is all set to try her luck in Kannada now. The tall-slim actress acted in a glamorous role in Srikanth's Mercury Pookal. Unfortunately with actresses from Malluwood ruling the roost here, Samiksha has decided to try her luck in neighboring States. As an initial step, she would act in a Kannada movie now. Reports say a popular production house in Bangalore has expressed the desire to remake Silambarasan and Jyothika starrer Manmadhan in Kannada. Samiksha has been approached to do the role done by Jyothika in the Tamil version. Samiksha has decided to explore Telugu and Malayalam films too.

Uyir is his life now

Srikanth is finally relieved. His Mercury Pookal has managed to send the cash registers ringing. The actor now waits for the release of Uyir, which he says would repeat the magic of Mercury Pookal. It is a good love story with a thriller element in it, says Srikanth. 'The hero encounters an obstacle, unusual in nature. How he overcomes forms the rest of it.' Besides Malayalam girl Samvrutha, Pithamagan fame Sangeetha is also in the cast. Music is by Joshua Sridhar. Sami, who has worked with the likes of Parthiban, is wielding the megaphone. Uyir is set for release this May.
