Ennamo therla, Nanda (film/eprformance) fulla ennala appreciate panna mudiyala...

Same here.. its a new face of Surya, alright.. But film was too dragging as a regular cinema fan at the age of 22 watching a hit director's movie and an upcoming star.

I still remember walking out of Abirami theatre, 3 school children probably aged 12-15, school-a cut adishtu, padam mudishtu veliya varumbodhu.. " idhuku naanae oru super padam edupaenda "

The essence that is missing from Nandha which was present in Sethu is the lighter side of the story with college scenes, songs in Sethu. I thought that was missing in Nantha, big time ! I dont think there was even a single moment, where the director has allowed us to stretch our lips for a slight smile too, except for Karunas' "deivamae deivamae"

Going by this logic, Inba is in Maddy's comfort zone because it's a city-based role.

'btw Surya not goot in city roles' argument unselected. He was impressive in Ayan. Impetuous boy <expression used too many times warning> in VA was more than impressive.

Equa, Jaideep Sahni's point seems largely semantic. Sociologically speaking the distinction may be importance in reflecting how we have started thinking of us.

>personal digression> There is a amman kOvil at the end of my street, next door to one of the more popular schools in town. Every year they have a festival, complete with the weekly evening oorvalam, a day when vendors lay their wares on the platform - driving is out of question - people throng from nearby villages to this temple and it is a rural bash - in every sense of the word. The neighbourhood takes a day or two to shake itself back into its upper middle class urbanness<<

But prachanai ellAm oNNu dhaan in terms of 'depiction'. In the sense, we have both class and geography problems. I would say we (adhAvadhu namma industry) struggle even more with class.

So when I say there are many cringe-English moments in a film like Kakka Kaaka - I admit I am not subtracting away the possibilities of it being a depiction of cringe-English moment in real life. I find myself able to do that only when I know that the maker "intends" <ivan suththi suththi ingeyE varaan yA> us to take it as such. On the other hand if the maker is earnest and it turns out cringeworthy then I feel that is a 'justifiable' reaction.

�You and Suriya can work again�- Rajini

IndiaGlitz [Saturday, October 24, 2009]

We all know that our Superstar is one person who never fails to appreciate hard work and quality products, we have one such incident here...

Rajinikanth had gone for a special screening of Suriya�s �Aadhavan� along with his family. We heard that Latha Rajinikanth, Soundarya, Aishwarya Dhanush and our Superstar�s grand son Yathra were in Four Frames Preview Theatre on October 16th.

The whole family was enjoying the show so much that our Superstar laughed loud heartily over the comedy scenes. (The fact we all know is that no hero can be as comical as Rajini is... He is a multifaceted Superstar!) Rajini was visibly having a great time laughing over the scenes between Suriya and Vadivelu particularly and came out of the theatre with a big smile. Rajini had wished the film�s producer Udhayanidhi saying, �The film has come out so well. Congratulations for your whole team. Suriya-Vadivelu combination has worked out so well.� Then Rajini had immediately called K S Ravikumar and said, �Ravi Sir, the film is really excellent. You have used Suriya so well. You and Suriya can work again.�

Denying reports that he would act in a Sri Lankan film, Suriya has said he was shocked to see news items which claimed that he has signed in for a Sinhala movie.

"There is no truth in it. I am currently acting in 'Singam' directed by Hari. My forthcoming projects are a Hindi movie by Ram Gopal Varma and a film in A R Murugadoss's direction. It will be produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin," the actor said in a statement on Thursday.

There were reports that Suriya has been roped in to act, along with Simran, in a film directed by a Sinhalese, Suresh Kumarasinghe.

Following this, Tamil activists, including Sri Lankan Tamil Protection Movement coordinator Pazha Nedumaran made an appeal to the actor to �reconsider� as the people of Tamil Nadu were �shocked� too see such reports.

The actor has given out a press release that lists out the project that he has committed. The note clearly states that the actor has not accepted any Sinhalee film and has no such plans for the future too.

After the success of �Ayan�, it was announced that the next project that will bring Suriya and K V Anand together, will be produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin. But suddenly Suriya got busy with RGV�s �Raktha Charithra� and A R Murugadoss project. So, the industry was abuzz that Karthi is filling the vacuum created by his bro.

When we asked about the association with Karthi to K V Anand the director said, �I will be starting the project with Suriya for Red Giant movies by next year in June. And there is not change in this project. And the reason for this project being postponed is Suriya�s commitment for his next with A R Murugadoss.�
