Karthi’s Siruthai trailer launched

The trailer and website launch of Studio Green's Siruthai was a grand affair at the Satyam cinemas on Sunday morning.

The entire event looked like a family affair with warmth and good wishes emanating for the Suriya-Karthi pair by all the dignitaries on the dais.

While Lingusamy launched the website, Gautham Menon launched the trailer, in the presence of chief guest Suriya. The event was one of the rare ones where the heroine of a film is present, with Tamannaah looking resplendent in a sari. The trailer and two songs were screened for the audience.

While one song had Karthi in nine get ups with Santhanam, the other was a love melody shot in Phuket between the lead pair.

The music director Vidyasagar revealed how choosy director S Siva was about the music while Suriya said, "I am waiting to work in a film with Vidyasagar but Karthi has reached there before me. Even now when I run on the treadmill I hear only his music for that extra energy to run."
He added, "We normally keep photos of gods or family members on our mobile phones but Karthi kept Ravi Teja̢۪s pic on his phone for one year, just to get the nuance of his cop role right from the Telugu original of this film. He does comedy effortlessly and this is a big plus in the film. I am sure Siruthai will be ten times more than Singam."

Jeyam Raja praised the Suriya- Karthi brothers team while producer Ravindran described the film as a feast for the public, exhibitors and distributors this Pongal. Director Rajesh said, "This is like a double promotion for Karthi who is doing a dual role."

Karthi added, "This is a dream film for me. While playing the cop however, I tried hard not to look like Suriya in Singam. Director Siva has worked on the script for more than a year to get it right and Vidyasagar̢۪s music will be a hit. I am grateful to the entire team for putting this film together."

Producer Gnanavel Raja came in for much praise from one and all for giving quality films so far. The event was attended by Parthiban, Shanmugam, SP Muthuraman, A Jagannathan, Prabu Solomon, Subhash C Bose, Anbu Chezhiyan, Vijay,  Rajeevan and cameraman of the film, Velraj,  amongst others.

Tamannah’s speech in Tamil was praised by Suriya who lauded her hard work to reach the top.

The director of the film KS Ravikumar and producer Udhayanidhi Stalin were also present to promote the film in Kerala.

At the press meet held, Kamal made it clear that the controversial song will not be deleted from the film.

Manmadhan Ambu is facing the wrath of the Hindu Makkal Katchi (HMK) for the song "Kannodu Kannai Kalandhal" which speaks much about woman's desire and has also references to Hindu deities like Aranganathar and Sri Varalakshmi.

Kamal has written the lyrics of the song and sung it with Trisha. Earlier HMK had sent a notice to Kamal Hassan, Trisha and the producer Udhayanidhi Stalin asking them to remove the song as it hurts the sentiments of Hindus.

Kamal said at the press meet: "I do not think that the song offends Hindu sentiments. The Censor Board has passed the film with a 'U' certificate. The song will not be deleted ."
