“I have not bid bye to acting. I will continue to do both- fashion shows and films,” she says and adds: “However meaty offers should knock my door. I don’t want to be a mere glamdoll.”

On her passion for fashion and the reason behind being one of the organisers of the CIFW, she says, “it was my desire to involve myself with Gaurav Sharma, producer, CIFW. Also, right from my college days, I am interested in fashion.”

On the event, she says, “Though Tamil Nadu is one of the biggest players in the entertainment arena, it is lagging behind as far as fashion industry is concerned. Hence we thought it would be appropriate to hold such a grand event in Chennai.”

“It took four months of hard work to bring together the who’s who of the industry under one roof. Designers not just from the country but also from abroad besides personalities from film industry and beauty pageants will participate. We are slated to perform a similar show in Colombo next year,” she adds.

Karthi turns philosophical

Three-year long wait for his second film to hit the screens has perhaps made Karthi Sivakumar philosophical. The ‘Paruthiveeran’ actor says every man has to wait for his turn and patience is one virtue that has to be followed by any human being.

Karthi-Sivakumar

“It is true that I am craving to see my face on screen after three years. At the same time, there is nothing to feel bad about it. For, ‘Aayirathil Oruvan’ is one such film which deserves the delay. Working under Selvaraghavan is pleasure,” he says.

Ask him whether he would patch up with his mentor Ameer, with whom he had differences after the release of his maiden venture, the young actor quotes his father. “My dad would often say things can’t be decided by anyone and time is the biggest healer. I believe in his words.”

Happy about his costumes in Lingusamy’s ‘Paiyaa’, Karthi says, “there are no big costumes for me in my first two films (‘Paruthiveeran’ and ‘Aayirthail Oruvan’). ‘Paiyaa’ is here to break the jinx. You can see a colourful Karthi in it.”

Meenakshi: My dressing is misleading!

When Meenakshi made her debut with Karuppusamy Kuthagaitharar, we thought she would fit the role of a traditional girl – the one that sticks to sarees, half sarees and salwar suits with oily plaits. But the movies that followed revealed her glamorous side, and her recent portfolio has her in some uber-sexy outfits! Did she make the switch consciously?

actress-meenakshi-stills-12

“When I did Karuppusamy Kuthagaitharar, that was the only movie offer I had and hence there was no question of a choice between glamour and non-glamour. It was a good role and I did it. The movies I signed after that happened to be with glam roles. It was no conscious decision. It just happened that way.” But ask what she is most comfortable wearing, and she says with a smile, “I love wearing sarees, but it’s not a very comfortably attire to wear on a regular basis. I am quite comfy in mini skirts and strappy tops, but people cannot judge me based on that. The way I dress misleads people. I am a thorough introvert! I do not party. No pubbing. Nothing. I just keep to myself!”

Bharath,Tamanna’s Kanden Kadhalai movie review

    Cast
Bharath, Tamannaah, Santhanam

Movie Review

kanden-kadhalai-movie-stills-images
First thing first, Kanden Kadhalai presented by Sun Pictures is fun unlimited, heart warming in its sincerity and a romantic romp.

However don’t expect it to be a carbon copy of the Imtiaz Ali original, as director R.Kannan has made it to suit the taste of the mass Tamil audiences.

So a brand new character in the form of Santhanam is added to the plot and no two ways about it, he is a scream as Mokaraj. The two likeable leads Bharath and Tamannaah makes the film work, especially the sparks that fly between them when they meet in the train and a series of well conceived incidents that slowly bring them together.

Two strangers , Sakthi Rajasekharan (Bharath) a young businessman and Anjali (Tamannaah) who are brought together by destiny in a train and how love blossoms between them. Sakthi is dejected and depressed as the girl he loved was getting married to someone else.

Unable to muster courage, to face the world he runs away and aimlessly boards a train. For company he has Anjali, a pretty chatterbox who is going home to Theni to break to her family the news about her love for Gautham Menon(Munna). Irritated by her continuous chattering, Sakthi gets off the train but soon he finds that she is back to bug him. What follows next is how their life, feelings, outlook and destiny changes as they slowly fall in love.

The first half of the movie succeeds in capturing your attention with splitting comedy and fast paced sequences when Anjali takes Sakthi to her home in Theni. The pace slackens post interval as the movie takes a dramatic leap with Anjali’s return into a reformed and more committed Sakthi’s life after nine months.

However the Tamil remake lacks the magic of the original, and is a bit slow paced in the second half. Funny and full of life, it is Tamannaah who is the heart and soul of this love story. She has come up with a live wire performance and the magic of the film lies in her performance. She may not pass off as a Thevar girl from Theni but no actress in Tamil cinema could play Anjali better than Tammu. Bharath’s understated and mature performance provides a perfect foil to Tamannaah’s bubbly character. Santhanam brings the house down with his funny one liners and goof-up’s.

PG Muthiah’s camera is first class, especially the Theni locations. Pattukottai Prabhakaran’s dialogues and Vidyasagar’s music is just ok, can’t be compared to the original. What works for the film is its simple charm and it’s immensely likeable lead cast. KK is a cute love story which reaches directly to your heart and good fun while it lasts.

Devi Sri Prasad is a hero now!

devi-the-photographer

He is a guy with every quality of a hero. He is the musician of this generation. When he performs stage shows, we have thought how good will it be to see him as the hero on big-screen.

Now the time has come for us to see our Devi Sri Prasad doing a lead role. Oh yeah! But his first venture is signed-up for Telugu. Producer M S Raju is introducing Devi Sri as the hero with his next production.  Tollywood’s hot girl Hansika Motwani will be paired up with Devi, which is said to be a love story.

Though we have seen many writers, lyricists and directors coming in front of the camera, it is the first time we are seeing a musician do the big thing. In fact when it comes to giving live performance, Devi Sri is very famous and a household name. It is all because he is expressive in his interviews and is ever-ready to give a power packed performance with dancing and singing.

We wish Devi does it well in Telugu and comes to Tamil too.
