About the film Naalai
Naalai is an electrifying story of the trials and tribulations of two violent gangsters - Justin (Richard) and Nattu (Nataraj Subramanian). Set against the pulsating mafia underworld, Justin and Nattu grow up to become the key lynch pins of Nair (Nasser). They are two reckless, hot-blooded youngsters who know nothing better that what the underworld has taught them. Having played with real ammunition instead of plastic, they lead a dry, listless life that unfolds each tomorrow with no fascination. Death to them is a game, a deal better than life. The only force that binds them and gets them going is their friendship. Theirs is a bond sworn in oblivion that has unknowingly given them a reason to live. As they grow, expanding and finding them in a hard-hitting world, the essence of their friendship infuses the magic of love for life in them. However, there comes a moment in one tomorrow that changes their lives, forever' It unravels as the story unfolds to its explosive and unexpected finale.

'Change the film's title' writer Padmanabhan furious
Actor Napoleon's next film has been titled 'Pallikondapuram'. This happens to be the name of a novel written by popular Tamil writer Neela Padmanabhan. Highly literary in nature this novel has been translated in to various languages such as Hindi, Malayalam, Urdu, Punjabi, Marathi, Gujarathi, Assamese, Telugu, Oriya, Kannada and Bengali, and stands as an iconic inference to Tamil literature. Tamil filmdom has become subject to naming their films with the same names of earlier productions calling this 'fashionable'. Names of literary works and novels are also being used as movie titles these days. Writer Padmanabhan's comments are along these lines. 'Is this a clear sign that marks dearth of creativity in Tamil films or is it a cheap gimmick in pursuit of cashing in on previous successes?' Whichever it may be, the writer is furious and has appealed to the filmmakers to make an unconditional change to their film's tile. The writer has also made it very clear that no one had approached him for permission. Even if they did, he is in no frame of mind to relent. The Tamil Writers Association of Thiruvananthapuram is representing Neela Padmanabhan's cause. When a creative writer is so very passionate about his work, one feels the filmmakers would have to go for a name change.
