Ajith's Kireedam was released amidst much hype and fanfare last week. Starring Ajith and Raj Kiran as loving father-son, the movie directed by debutant A L Vijay, witnessed a bumper opening. However at several areas, avid Ajith-fans complained that the second half was bit lengthy and it hampered the pace of the movie. Hence it is learnt that a few scenes in the second half has been removed to make it crisper and sustain the momentum of the screenplay. Trisha plays the heroine while a host of artistes including Saranya, Vivek, Santhanam, Sathyam, and Haneefa among others are in the cast.
