Vellitherai: Spoof on cinema

by mymazaa.com

Prakash Raj's home production 'Vellitherai' is fast shaping up. Starring Prithviraj and Prakash Raj in lead roles, the movie will be a spoof on Tamil cinema.

It may be recalled that Shahrukh Khan's 'Om Shanthi Om' (OSO), directed by Farah Khan, was a spoof on Bollywood in 1970s. Quite similar to OSO, 'Vellitherai' has a few scenes imitating actors of Tamil cinema in 1970s.

The movie is a remake of Malayalam hit 'Udayananu Tharam' that featured Srinivasan and Mohanlal in prominent roles.

The scenes are kept a close secret and director Viji is giving his best to get the act right. Prakash Raj plays a hero in the movie and Prithviraj as director. It drives home a point that the industry is hero-driven and the director has to play tunes according to the whims and fancies of the hero. Viji has narrated the entire proceedings in a hilarious manner.

Will 'Vellitherai' also meet the same fate of OSO? Let's wait and watch.
