Vijay, Dhanush, Aarya on-screen for a particular ‘special song’

Leading actors Vijay, Dhanush, Aarya and four other artistes would be seen on-screen for a particular ‘special song’ in cinematographer-turned-director K.V Anand’s upcoming film ‘Ko’, which stars Jiiva & Karthika in the lead and has been in the making for quite some time now. The film’s shooting had been held in many European countries including Norway.

Vijay-Dhanush-Aarya

Anand, whose last film ‘Ayan’ starring Suriya & Tamannaah broke many box-office records, is planning to film a song for the film in which leading actors and actresses of the Tamil film industry might be seen. Sources close to the burly filmmaker say that he has been in touch with the stars he intends to rope in for a song in the film.

In Bollywood movies, songs featuring multiple stars isn’t a rarity. In superstar Amitabh Bachchan’s ‘Naseeb’ which released in the mid-eighties, legends like Raj Kapoor, Rajesh Khanna, Dharmendra and Shammi Kapoor featured in a song sequence. The same was the case with contemporary actress Deepika Padukone’s debut film ‘Om Shanti Om’ which released a couple of years back and had a song featuring the 70-plus Dharmendra, Hrithik Roshan, Govinda, Priyanka Chopra and Kajol Devgn.

Efforts were made in the past in Kollywood to bring together leading stars for a single song but in vain. The song that Anand has in mind is likely to feature Suriya, Vijay, Aarya, ‘Jeyam’ Ravi, Bharath, Dhanush and Jiiva, the hero of the film. Talks are reportedly going on between Anand and the concerned heroes and some heroines in Tamannaah, Shriya Saran and Poonam Bajwa.

Shriya planning to start a spa

Shriya, known more for her skin show than any roles of substance, does indeed have a humanitarian attitude which has made her turn her attention to those lesser children of God. Shriya joins the elite list of celebrities who indulge in humanitarian activities not for the sake of publicity but with an intention to do something fruitful.  Reports from Kollywood say that the actress is planning to start a spa (fitness centre) in Mumbai to cater to the needs of the visually challenged.

The actress said that she was always concerned about the welfare of the disabled from her childhood days and that her celebrity status hasn’t brought this attitude in her.  Getting into philosophical mode, she adds, “I’m aware that life is not all about money and fame; what matters is what we do or we can do for the people around us.  I’m planning to open a spa in Mumbai shortly to cater the needs of the blind and the visually challenged.

“When I used to study in Delhi, we used to visit a blind school quite often.  My experiences at the School has left a deep impact on me which might have contributed in a big way in my decision to shortly set up a special spa for visually challenged people in Mumbai,” says Shriya.

“The strongest of their senses is that of touch.  Keeping this min mind, we are planning to offer them at the spa treatments like reflexology and massages that are programmed to give them great comfort,” she added.

Professionally, Shriya is thrilled to bits with the great comeback she made in Telugu with Don Seenu and Puli.  She also looks with great hope and expectation to her Tamil film Chikku Bukku opposite Aarya, to resurrect her Tamil career too.

Priyamani says that acting with new faces is risk. Priyamani who is currently acting in Malayalam and Telugu films said,” I am interested to act in Tamil films than other language films. But I am not getting good offers in Tamil. I have listened to lot of stories. All of them were heroine subjects. They were good stories.
