More news →Parijatham ready
Actor-director Bhagyaraj's Parijatham, which introduces his daughter Saranya on the big screen will be releasing this Friday. The film has been ready and waiting for release since last six months. The elections and the political climate in the State were the reasons for the delay. The movie which has story, screenplay, dialogues and direction by Bhagyaraj features Prithviraj in the lead role. Being distributed by Oscar Ravichandran , the movie is expected to open up in many theatres. Bhagyaraj, who recently joined DMK, is hopeful that the movie would click. The movie has musical score by Dharan and character artistes like Sarath Babu and Prakash Raj will add to the story's weight. There is also good expectation over Saranya's performance as she has the right genes for acting.
Parijatham - Soft is in
The good run of Parijatham has given Kollywood a pleasant surprise. Considered a hero-oriented industry, the good response to the soft romantic tale has surprised many in the trade. Scripted and directed by K Bhagyaraj, Parijatham featuring Prithviraj and Saranya is witnessing a decent run. Has the tastes and preferences of audience changing? According to Bhagyaraj, 'Certainly not. Audience have always been receptive to good films. Movies with strong storyline and script have always clicked'. A good movie should have a good story, an engrossing script and artistes who can give life to the whole idea conceived by the director, he adds. A section of distributors do feel that the good opening for movies like Parijatham would embolden others to come out with such movies. People are tired of watching similar themes and overdose of violence these days. Thankfully Parijatham came at the right time.
Paali is changing
Paali, which was released a week ago with new faces Sre and Rimpi in the lead roles, is undergoing some changes now. After receiving feedback from fans and theatre owners that the movie would be slicker if some scenes were changed, debutant director Jesudas, who was a one-time associate of noted director Shaji Kailash has been re-shooting some of the scenes. The newly shot content would be added to the movie by this weekend and Paali would have a feel-fresh look from coming Monday.
Parineeti Chopra to star alongside Varun Dhawan in Judwaa 2
Judwaa was the 1997 Bollywood flick starring Salman Khan in a dual role alongside Karisma Kapoor and Rambha. A sequel to the film was announced with Sajid Nadiadwala bankrolling the project. Ever since Varun Dhawan was announced as the lead in the film, rumours were ripe that it could be Jacqueline Fernandez who would be roped in to play the lead opposite him. But recent reports have stated that it is none other than Parineeti, whom the makers are looking to rope in. Parineeti and Varun were momentarily seen together in the song Jaaneman Aah in the movie Dishoom where she made a cameo appearance. Also, if confirmed, chances are that she will be continuing the role of Roopa played by Rambha. Judwaa was based on Jackie Chan’s Twin Dragons.
'Parineeta' cinematographer for 'Eklavya'
Vidhu Vinod Chopra certainly believes in repeating the cast and crew of his films. Apart from roping in practically an entire cast of 'Parineeta' in 'Eklavya - The Royal Guard' [Sanjay Dutt, Saif Ali Khan, Vidya Balan], he has also sought the services of a common cinematographer - S Natarajan Subramaniam. From a period film set in West Bengal to a contemporary outing in Rajasthan, S Natarajan Subramaniam has been highly successful in providing different textures to each of the films. In fact just last Friday, his 'Black Friday' too saw the light of the day and most of the reviews have reserved a special mention for the excellent cinematography that has enhanced the gripping look and feel of the film.
