Considering the reach and promotional value, both Telugu (AP, TELANGANA) and Tamil, Sun TV is the best option, Producers might have thought it over as a trade-off for U/A

Maybe unrelated, but cannot be ignored. Sarath Kumar's comments just gave #ThoongaaVanam team free promotion. This is usual prachanai relating to KH as usual.

I saw posters in some theater as next change for diwali. No official confirmation though

If it's 98 mins, it measures upto Papanasam Interval only. Do they have interval for Thoongavanam?

[Cinemarasigan]

98 mins was Sleepless nights running time, TV will be approx 120 mins..

Hopefully a release date announcement comes out in the next couple of days. Otherwise we have to assume that it that it is not releasing for Deepavali

Kamal sir wanted Thoongavanam to be my film: Rajesh M Selva

To debutante filmmaker Rajesh M Selva, directing Kamal Haasan in Thoongavanam was an absolute dream come true. A long-term associate of Kamal, Rajesh says he got to learn a lot from him. “I have assisted Kamal sir for eight years, but never thought that he would make me direct Thoongavanam. Not many debutants get this opportunity to direct Kamal Haasan in their first film, and I consider myself lucky. Sir and I had discussed many scripts. Initially, he was supposed to direct the film. Only later (after pre-production work) I came to know I was directing it. I took the responsibility very seriously and made use of the opportunity,” adds Rajesh.

Ask him if he was nervous directing Kamal, and Rajesh says, “I felt like I was going to write an exam, but it was easy to direct him. The screenplay is his, yet I had absolute freedom to execute my thoughts. Often people ask me what’s the biggest compliment I have received from Kamal sir, and I say it was when I showed the film to him and he didn't utter a single word — that made me happy and it’s a very big thing. When sir doesn’t say much, it indicates appreciation,” he smiles.

There are reports that the film was completed in less than 39 days. Are they true? “No, they are absolutely baseless. We completed the Tamil version and the Telugu version in about 60 days,” he says, and proceeds to explain that, “There’s something for everybody in the film. Though it is inspired from a French film, we made a lot of changes in the script according to the taste of the audience who are here. I can’t say it’s a heroic film, but it will satisfy Kamal fans like any other film of his.

Originally, Trisha’s and Madhu Shalini’s characters weren’t there in it, but we added it. Raaj Kamal Films has obtained the rights for the film.” Rajesh was also all praise for the team. “Be it Prakash Raj sir, or Trisha or anybody else, everybody was dedicated on the sets. When you watch the film, you will get to see it clearly. We didn't even have a single day lag in the middle of the shooting. It went on continuously.”

What’s next up for him? “I have a few scripts on my mind as of now. I might assist Kamal sir or even take up a role on the production side. Also I have been getting offers from the outside banners as well, but I would love to direct Kamal sir again. That might happen soon,” Rajesh signs off.

Kamal Haasan and director Rajesh have a surprise for the audience in 'Thoongavanam', reveals Trisha

Are you excited about Thoongavanam?
I’m really excited, but I’m also nervous because there’s so much of hype and expectations about the film now. I’ve never played a cop before and in such a format either. There is one part of the film which director Rajesh and Kamal sir wanted to keep as a surprise for the audience. It’s a little thing between the heroine and hero and this is the first time I am doing something like that. There were a lot of rehearsals for it and there’s no hint of it in the trailer or teaser. I don’t know if it’s a remake of a film, but it’s completely Indianised. What I liked about the film was that it was very interesting. There’s no one part where you’ll get bored.

How was it being on set with Kamal Haasan again after Manmadhan Anbu?
I’ve had a very long association with Raaj Kamal Films. Kamal sir doesn’t make working on a film mechanical. Even for Manmadhan Anbu, we did a lot of homework and had script readings. So by the time you are on set, you know exactly what’s going to happen on set and what the other actors’ cues are going to be. Even for Thoongavanam, we had informal script readings before we actually started shoot. All of us were continuously in the flow of the film. So even if you are not shooting for a day, you know exactly what’s going on. It’s a very Hollywood-style of working. His work style hasn’t changed at all and he makes you are involved in all aspects so we come out with a very complete film when it's done.

Do you think having script-readings and prep before the shoot is a better way of working?
For every film, I have a bound script of the film always in my bag so that I can just take out the script and refer to it. But yes, I do prefer prep and script-readings because when you land up for the shoot there’s absolutely no stress. When we shot Manmadhan Anbu, for instance, I really felt like I was on a paid holiday. We started shoot at 6 am, but it was a breeze because I knew everything that was happening. Kamal Haasan makes sure that every actor has a passion for cinema as much as he does. On a personal note, I think it’s a brilliant way to work. You have a lot of fun working on films like that.

You’ve dubbed for yourself in this film.
I’ve dubbed for myself in quite a few films. One thing Kamal sir is particular about is that if you know the language you must dub for yourself. No dubbing artist can do justice to a person’s individual voice or their characteristics. He feels your dubbing makes a lot of difference to the film.

A decade in films but 2015 has been a good year for you in terms of scripts like Thoongavanam, Nayaki and Aranmanai2.
Yes, I think the latter part of the year has been very productive. I’m listening to some good scripts. I think it takes 10-12 years for people to understand what you are capable of. I feel that when you enter the film industry you spend the first few years trying to sustain yourself or make a mark. You don’t really care too much about scripts, but you want to be seen with big heroes and in big films. After that, I think it definitely takes people some time to say, 'Yes, she can act and can carry off a particular kind of role'. Even where I’m concerned, I made certain decisions to sustain myself before I sign a film where I am carrying the whole film. I can afford to take that risk now because people know that I can perform and look a certain way. Now, it’s more about me and whether the film works. It’s wiser for me to do a heroine-oriented film at this point in my career.

Thoongavanam is up for release this Diwali along with some other films like Ajith’s Vedhalam. Does that make you nervous?
No! (laughs) Honestly, I think the more the better! This healthy, fun competition is always good. I am not sure about Ajith’s film, but I think the two films are completely different genres. A good film is a good film; it’s one that audiences will never say no to.

Sum up 2015.
Professionally, it’s been very good and I have been satisfied with the kind of work I am doing. Personally, there’s been some ups and downs but it has been a year of self-realisation and it taught me a lot. I feel I have become wiser and grown over a year!

yes.. was expecting for Nov 6

[Russelljpv]

I feel Diwali day is correct choice. Normally, people are used to be very busy, days before Diwali. Movie would be the last thing in their mind. Only fans will go for the movie. If by chance movie didn't click, it will be buried before Diwali. Theatre people won't think twice to remove the movie and put something new. People will prefer unknown movie to a bad mouthed movie. Diwali day is like climax. Almost everyone who is interested in seeing movies in theatre will want to go for a new movie. Still, overseas is not so big market compared to Tamil Nadu. Think of Viswaroopam. In Coimbatore areas, there used to be holidays for the entire week in factories and industrial areas during Diwali. This will lead to more collection.

Official announcement in Kamal Hassan Facebook

[kumarsr]

Kamal Haasan's 'Thoongavanam' will bring in a new way of filmmaking in Kollywood, says director Rajesh Selva

Considering Kamal Haasan is an established director, what was difficult about directing him?
I was nervous during the preparation stage, but once we got into production, it was easy. Kamal Haasan has written the screenplay. We all know he has written and directed films earlier, so I was a little tensed. When I worked as an assistant director (AD), he used to give me the script and we would conceive the scene in a particular way. But when we'd get on set, he’d do it in a completely different way and we would be amazed at how it would turn out. I had that fear of whether I’d be able to live up to his expectations and if he would approve. But he said this is your film, so you do it in your way.

Were you confident you’ll live up to his expectations?
I was nervous about that, but he handled it very well. Initially, he just left us alone, so the cameraman and I would discuss the shots and go ahead. I was worried because Kamal sir didn’t see the frame or what we had shot. I showed the rough edit to him after a few days and he said you’re going in the right direction, so just go ahead.

What’s different in the way you shot this film?
We had a plan before we went to the actual shoot stage. When you see the movie, you’ll see how it’s not shot in the conventional way. It’s shot in a new pattern and if everything goes well and the movie is a hit, then people will have another way of filmmaking altogether. We didn’t shoot the film with the camera on a stand, it’s floating - the camera is always on the move. I think Kamal sir also liked the idea.

Having worked as an AD, did you ever want to write a screenplay for Kamal Haasan?
Who wouldn’t want to? Everyone does! (Laughs) I’m not a writer and I don’t believe in having credits like story-screenplay-direction for my film. I believe it’s teamwork and you need more brains to work on a film. But I always had one big wish and that was for Kamal sir to write a screenplay for me. Three years back I narrated a story to him and requested him to write a screenplay for it. Kamal sir advised me to do it as a comedy but told me that him writing the screenplay would turn out to be too expensive. (Laughs) So my big wish was for him to write a screenplay for me – him acting in my film is a bonus!

Why do you think he chose you to direct Thoongavanam?
I think you should ask him this question. (Laughs) I was always working with him on other projects. He usually calls me and asks what I am up to and if I am free, asks me to work on his project.

Is Thoonagavam in line with your vision?
100%. I am really satisfied with the film. In fact, I just got back from Los Angeles because I did the sound mixing and design sound of the film there. I think you’ll get this kind of opportunity only with Raaj Kamal Films and Kamal sir. The amount of money we have spent on sound alone for this film is huge – we have spent ten times as much as we would have spent here. I don’t think anyone would send a first-time director to Hollywood to mix the sound. But he and the producer Chandra Haasan did. I’m really happy with the film.

Tell us about Trisha’s role.
Trisha has done an extraordinary role, she has never done a role like this in her career. This many sound clichéd, but it’s really true. She travels with the story and contributes to the screenplay, taking the story forward.

What did you learn from this work experience?
Kamal sir is very particular about preparation. Everyone is talking about how quickly we finished shooting the film. But we actually started work on the film three months in advance. We spend a lot of time and money on prep in Raaj Kamal Films and I applied that here as well. I think I’ve achieved 60-70% efficiency in this film. We did script reading sessions and rehearsals before going on the floors. The post-production plan was also ready in the pre-production stage. We finished shooting the film and the next day, we started dubbing.

What reaction are you expecting from the audience?
I was not tense while shooting the film, but now I’m a little nervous. But everyone was very happy during the process of making this film right from Kamal sir to the technicians. I enjoyed making this film.

Have you signed another film with Kamal Haasan?
We are in talks as of now. I might be involved in the production for his next film and might direct a film with him after that. Nothing is finalised as of yet.

தீபாவளி ரிலீஸில் கடைசி நேரத் திருப்பம்

கமலின் ‘தூங்காவனம்’ படமும், அஜித்தின் ‘வேதாளம்’ படமும் தீபாவளிக்குதான் ரிலீஸ் என எப்போதோ முடிவு செய்யப்பட்டுவிட்டது. ஆனால் எந்த படம், எந்த தேதியில் ரிலீஸாகும் என்பதுதான் ரசிகர்களுக்கு பெரிய கேள்வியே.

வியாழக்கிழமை சென்டிமென்ட்டை முன்வைத்து ‘வேதாளம்’ திரைப்படம் தீபாவளிக்கு ஒரு வாரம் முன்பே, அதாவது நவம்பர் 5ஆம் தேதியே ரிலீஸாகும் என முதலில் பேசப்பட்டது. பின்னர் நவம்பர் 10ஆம் தேதிதான் வேதாளம் ரிலீஸ் என்றார்கள்.

அதேபோல் ‘தூங்காவனம்’ முதலில் நவம்பர் 10 வெளியீடு என்றார்கள், பின்னர் நவம்பர் 6ஆம் தேதி ரிலீஸ் என்றார்கள். ஆனால், இப்போது சென்சாரெல்லாம் முடிந்துவிட்ட நிலையில், நவம்பர் 10ஆம் தேதிதான் ரிலீஸ் என உறுதிசெய்யப்பட்டிருக்கிறதாம்.

இரண்டு படங்களில் ஏதாவது ஒன்றுதான் தீபாவளி அன்று வெளியாகும் என எதிர்பார்க்கப்பட்டது. ஆனால், கடைசி நேரத் திருப்பமாக, வேதாளமும், தூங்காவனமும் ஒரே நாளில் அதாவது நவம்பர் 10ஆம் தேதிதான் ரிலீஸ் என விநியோகஸ்தர் தரப்பிலிருந்து தகவல் கிடைத்திருக்கிறது.

இரண்டு படங்களும் ஒரே நாளில் ரிலீஸாவதால் எந்த படத்திற்கு, எந்தெந்த தியேட்டர்கள் கிடைக்கும் என இப்போது பரபரக்கத் தொடங்கிவிட்டார்கள்.

“KAMAL TOLD ME STORIES ABOUT OLD MALAYALAM MOVIES”

Sanu Varughese, the cinematographer of Thoongavanam has worked with Kamal Haasan in Viswaroopam too. Basically concentrating on commercials, Sanu does take time to choose his feature films. In a career spanning 16 years, he has done around 10-12 feature films, some of them are Farhan Aktar’s Karthik calling Karthik, Hasee Toh Phasee and Amitabh Bachchan’s Wazir in Hindi.

In an exclusive chat with behindwoods, he discusses about Thoongavanam, Kamal and working with Rajesh M Selva.

Kamal Haasan

My association with Kamal began during Marmayogi times, but the project did not take off. When he was directing Viswaroopam, he called me again and Thoongavanam naturally happened on those lines. We share a good working equation and it is easy to work with Kamal sir.

Kamal and I used to talk a lot in between shots. Thoongavanam was scheduled in such a way we could have all those chats in the middle of the takes (laughs). It is very interesting talking to Kamal as he has an entirely different way of thinking. It was good to hear his take on life, science, his conviction and rationalism. I got to hear stories about old Malayalam movies that I have grown up on, which he was a part of. We share a lot of common interest and to me it was like going back to school.

Challenging aspect in Thoongavanam

I had to do something that I had not done before. We wanted to avoid all the movie lighting and worked mostly on the practical stuff. Sets were designed in such a way that the practicals would work for us. We also wanted to bring in lots of color because, today, a lit environment looks like a lot of colors in it, fluorescence of different colors, LED fixtures, sodium vapor lamps and so on. We wanted to bring in those elements in a modern urban lit scape. It was a different scheme that I had not done before, but attempted in Thoongavanam. I think it has worked out well for the film.

What did Kamal say to your work?

He liked my work; we matched quite a bit tastewise. Kamal is one person who would appreciate things for the merit of it. That way he is very good to work with. He liked what I did with Viswaroopam also.

Difference between Viswaroopam and Thoongavanam

In Viswaroopam we were trying to picturize a real kind of zone, but not losing all the drama. What was going on was very real and unless you depict it with a sense of naturalism, it would have lost its impact.

In Thoongavanam too, we were roughly in the same scheme of things in approaching lighting and shooting the film, but it was a little more dramatic here. A lot of frames were shot handheld. The sets were lit 360 degrees and we could move around and shoot freely in the centre of action without worrying about what would come in our way. We wanted to free up the camera so much so that we can move freely and cover action. That was the effort.

Rajesh

I know Rajesh for a long time. His skills in scheduling and putting up a project together are impeccable. We used to discuss a lot before shooting and brainstorm and it was a very nice collaborative effort in Thoongavanam.

Every department in Thoongavanam was thinking of bettering their effort. They used to feel that they own a good part of the film in terms of their contribution. Rajesh is good in that way in getting the positive energy of the crew and also a lot has to do with his smart scheduling skills.

For a five day shoot, he would start with easy ones, move on to tougher ones and then end with lighter ones so that even if there was a spill over on earlier tough scenes, that were handled on the last easy days. It was so well scheduled that the crew did not even realize they are doing something tough and it went on very smoothly.

Your next project

Whenever Rajesh starts his next, I will be there!

[dell_gt]

Kamal Haasan’s much-awaited Telugu-Tamil bilingual film Cheekati Rajyam will release on November 12 on a grand scale.

The makers had already announced the release date of Thoongavanam, which is slated to release on November 10. But the Telugu version is delayed for two days due to the release of Akhil – The Power Of Jua on November 11.

While Thoongavanam - has already received a U/A certificate from the censor officials, Cheekati Rajyam will be going to the censors on Monday morning.

[kumarsr]

Cheekati Rajyam also censored with U/A.

What are they releasing it on a different date?

[kumarsr]

Do not miss the beginning of 'Thoonga Vanam', says Rajesh M Selva
http://www.sify.com/movies/do-not-miss-the-beginning-of-thooga-vanam-says-rajesh-m-selva-news-tamil-plcpRDchfhjde.html

It has been a dream-come-true for Rajesh M Selva to direct Ulaganayagan for Thoonga Vanam.

From a fan to an assistant director and now, directing the one and only Kamal Haasan is indeed a memorable ride for Rajesh. “No one is perfect but Kamal sir always works hard to effectuate the excellence”, says Rajesh who quickly went down the memory lane to recall an incident that happened during Marmayogi, which was dropped due to financial reasons.

Marmayogi

“Kamal sir had written a poem in both Sanskrit and Tamil for Marmayogi. It’s for a sequence, where a particular character has to enter into one part of the cave, reads a poem inscribed on the wall and comes out from the other end. For the record, Marmayogi was in the sixth century and I took the responsibility of finding out the Tamil scriptures of that time”, recalls Rajesh, who had spent nearly forty five days with the researchers at archaeological department to know the scriptures of sixth century Tamil that existed in Pandiya kingdom.

“I was very proud and submitted my research work to Kamal sir. He had a glance and asked me to hand it over to production designer. But after few minutes, sir called me again and asked to find the Tamil scriptures of fifth century. I was upset but only after ten minutes, realized the reason behind his query”, says Rajesh, who was back then a third assistant director to Kamal Haasan.

“If a person reads something in the 6th century, it would have inscribed minimum hundred years before. That’s Kamal sir for you”, says Rajesh.

Thoongaa Vanam

Rajesh’s biggest request to the audiences is to be in your seats well ahead before the movie starts and not to miss the beginning. “Story of our film will unfold soon after the titles", says Rajesh.

The director says that Thoongaa Vanam will be an engaging thriller and audience will come out of the cinema hall with a big smile. “A lot of cultural differences are there between our country and France, where the script was originally written. The way a French reacts to the death would be subtle while our reactions would be loud”, says Rajesh, whose film is based on a French story.

The director also says that the characterizations of Trisha, Prakash Raj and Sampath will be way different from the original. “Trisha plays a never seen before role in the film but I can’t say the same for Kamal sir”, laughs Rajesh.

Seasoned actors in the film

“Talks for me directing a film for Raj Kamal Films had happened even before a year but when Kamal sir gave me Thoongaa Vanam, I realized the huge pressure”, says the director.

“It’s always my dream to rope in seasoned actors in Kamal sir’s film, which rarely happens. I feel lucky to get Prakash Raj, Sampath, Yugi Sethu, Trisha and Uma Riyaz on board, the way they improvised our scenes are remarkable”, exclaims Rajesh.

Project planning in Raj Kamal films

“All over the world, filmmakers and producers spend more time in project development. People do a lot of rehearsals and preps before shooting but in Kollywood, they think it as a superfluous investment. We at Raj Kamal Films spend enough time on project planning and hence our films are cost effective”, says Rajesh, who has worked nearly seven years in the production house.

“Vishwaroopam had high octane action sequences but it was a zero-error movie, none of the actors had single scratch because we always give more importance to the safety measures. Unlike other movies, French stunt choreographers in Thoongaa Vanam didn’t come on the shooting day; we did proper rehearsals and gave enough training to the actors”, said Rajesh.

Sound design

Normally, debut directors do not get a chance to mix their films in Los Angeles but when Rajesh asked, Raj Kamal films asked to him to go ahead. “I had shown the final cut and explained how sound design would provide a different feel to the film and Kamal sir immediately agreed”, says Rajesh.

Rajesh adds “A little hum from a light or a noise from an AC would provide a unique movie watching experience. Technicians at Los Angeles have done remarkable job”.

Rajesh also compliments music composer Ghibran for maintaining absolute silence in few scenes. “Ghibran and me share a good wavelength, we argue a lot but only for the betterment of the project”, says the director.

After the release, if someone happens to say that Thoongaa Vanam is on par with international standards, major credits should go to my cinematographer Sanu Varghese, says Rajesh.

The director says “Sanu always asked me to see the bigger picture and made sure that I don’t decide anything emotionally”.

Buying official rights

“Not only Thoongaa Vanam, Kamal sir has bought rights for many other films in the past”, reveals Rajesh who also says that they would laugh on comments saying Kamal Haasan had copied from other language films because people at Raj Kamal Films know the truth.

“Not to forget, they (western filmmakers) too get inspired from Kamal sir and filmmakers like Quentin Tarantino have accepted it”, adds the director.

So why Raj Kamal Films are not revealing that the rights have properly bought by them? Rajesh says “Kamal sir doesn’t believe in the idea of letting out all the information to the audiences. It’s not necessary for a moviegoer to know the budget, business and running time of the movie, all we are trying to give is a quality film”.

“Most projects in Kollywood are inspired from foreign language films but I feel it to be unethical. Let’s get proper remake rights and play around the plot as we wish”, explains Rajesh on his ideology of remaking foreign language films.

Marudhanayagam and Kamal’s comment on Thoongaa Vanam

So what did Kamal say after watching Thoongaa Vanam ? “Nothing, he said OK and started working on his next film. That’s how sir reacts; we are from his school right? So appreciating us is like patting his own shoulders”, chuckles Rajesh.

Marudhanayagam? “Just like everyone, Kamal sir and Raj Kamal team are working towards it. Hopefully soon”, says the director.

Cameos in Kamal films

For people, who are not aware, Rajesh had played interesting cameos in Kamal’s films including the terrorist in Vishwaroopam and spy in Uttama Villain.

Rajesh says “It was an accident. When we were shooting for Vishwaroopam in Michigan, a NRI named Abhu was supposed to play the terrorist role but he had visa issue so Kamal sir had asked me to act in that scene”.

“You should act in baddie roles so that audiences will hate you’ is what Kamal sir said jovially, and it is he who a styled me in Vishwaroopam”, says Rajesh.

For Uttama Villain, we searched actors to play a spy, who can speak good Tamil in Bengaluru and he should also hang on the rope. “Kamal sir once again insisted that I do this particular role and also told on a lighter vein to do small cameos in all the upcoming films of Raj Kamal International”

What next?

“I might direct Kamal sir’s next film but nothing has been finalized yet. I would be the executive producer for one of the upcoming films of Kamal sir and getting offers from outside too. I’m not the kind of a person, who plans big”, signs off Rajesh.

Kamal Haasan: My focus is to give quality films at great speed
Kamal Haasan, who will soon turn 61, is in no mood to slow down
http://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/kamal-haasan-my-focus-is-to-give-quality-films-at-great-speed/article7837607.ece

http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/02607/HYM04KAMAL_HAASAN_2607544g.jpg

In the last few years, Kamal Haasan and team have been working on more than one project simultaneously. When Uttama Villain was in its last leg of shooting, the pre-production work for the noir thriller Cheekati Rajyam (Thoongavanam in Tamil) was on. Now, as the team is gearing up for the thriller’s release, work is on for his next. “I’ve learnt the hard way not to give a long gap between films. My focus is to give quality films at great speed,” he says, settling down for an interaction while in the city.

The speed doesn’t translate to a compromise with the output. The noir thriller, a remake of the French film Sleepless Night (Nuit Blanche), involved four months of pre-production. “I liked how the story was written,” says Kamal, of Nuit Blanche. “A few stories are primarily written to accommodate cinematic elements. This story has depth, with back-stories for the characters. It has the scope to make the audience feel for the characters,” he says, drawing an analogy with First Blood and the Bourne series.

Kamal plays a cop with the narcotics control bureau who has a dubious past. Directed by his associate Rajesh M. Selva, the film stars Trisha, Madhu Shalini, Prakash Raj and Kishore. Prior to the shoot, the actors had a reading session of the script in Hyderabad. Most scenes were shot in both languages, including the action sequences. Rajesh points out, “The patrol vehicles and nameplates are different in Chennai and Hyderabad, and so are the uniforms of the cops. We had to re-shoot.”

Kamal notes that shooting simultaneously involves meticulous planning, which he traces back to the days of his first production Raja Paarvai (Amavasya Chandrudu) and Varumayin Niram Sivappu (Akali Rajyam).

To give Cheekati Rajyam a sense of immediacy, cinematographer Sanu Verghese used special handheld cameras. “Barring two sequences, the camera was never anchored. We had the required lighting all around and the camera kept moving,” says Kamal.

He also suggested that Rajesh and music director Ghibran head to Los Angeles for sound mixing. “They were reluctant at first, but having seen the results, they don’t want anything less,” laughs Kamal.

Mixing studio

Rajesh underlines that sound is crucial for the film, a portion of which unfolds in a nightclub. “There is music inside the room and you hear it as you step out. The mixing ensured that every sound is clear; even a slight hum of a light bulb in a room will be heard.” Buoyed by the experience, Kamal plans to build a mixing studio in Chennai, and eventually in Hyderabad, which meets international standards. “You can’t keep running to LA each time,” he adds.

Of late, he has punctuated ambitious ventures such as Vishwaroopam and Uttama Villain with smaller productions that have been remakes — Unnaipol Oruvan (Eenadu) from A Wednesday; Papanasam from Drishyam and now Cheekati Rajyam from Sleepless Night. It’s part of a game plan, he admits and adds, “But don’t think remakes are easy. You can copy a James Bond film and ruin it.”

The actor will turn 61 on November 7 and is in no mood for nostalgia. “There is so much I want to do,” he insists. He feels the need to stay fit; fit enough to pull off action sequences. “When you watch Cheekati Rajyam, you’ll wonder how I am sitting here without any injury. A French stunt team planned everything to the detail,” he says. He, Trisha and other actors would do a 15-minute warm-up in front of the unit before enacting stunt moves.

Fitness, like acting, writing and filmmaking, he points out, doesn’t come through shortcuts. “One has to train. I like to work with trained writers, directors, music composers. One might argue that Ilayaraja or Bharathi Raja came from villages. I know how hard they trained to hone their skills. Else, their art would have been confined to their villages.”

There are larger, ambitious projects like Maruda Nayakam and the Hindi action thriller Amar Hai waiting to take off, but meanwhile, he will be teaming up with T.K. Rajeev Kumar (of Chanakyan) for a multilingual. Vishwaroopam 2, he says, is almost ready barring five months of visual effects. Vishwaroopam and Uttama Villain have faced protests from fringe groups and Kamal says stoically, “They know nothing about the film before its release and want to ride on it, probably with political motives. I know they are wrong and that gives me courage to move ahead.”

Kamal speak

* Cheekati Rajyam will release on November 20, ten days after the Tamil version, to avoid clashing with the release of Akhil Akkineni’s launch film, Akhil.

* Visual appeal has always gone hand-in-hand with content, since the days of Chandralekha and Maya Bazaar, not just after Baahubali. Maro Charitra had beautiful visuals in black and white.

* If I have broken language barriers, the credit goes to K. Balachander. When he had 20 actors at his disposal, he chose me. Someone told him I charge Rs. 2 lakh and suggested Rishi Kapoor instead; but KB sir insisted I work in Hindi.

* I would consider 60 of my films good; the other 100-odd films are in the routine songs, dances and fights format.

* I dub myself for a straight Telugu film; only when it is a dubbed film SPB annayya chips in.

* Eventually, we may start making films for the internet, where you don’t need film certification or censor clearance.

This film follows the same template of Papanasam. Not much promotion.No Songs. Keeping low key profile and low budget also. This is reflected in the reservation so far. Except fans common people have less idea about this project. It seems Kamal wants this way. It looks like new strategy. If the content is good as we expect, it will go in the way of Papanasam.

See Vijay TV, there is more promotion for their Diwali channel release. Not a single ad. for Thoongavanam so far.

Sasikala buys Vedhalam outright
Posted in Tamil Nadu By Ayyappa Prasad On November 3, 2015

Chennai, Nov 3(tamilnaducentral): Sasikala owned Jazz Cinemas has bought the Tamil Nadu distribution rights of Vedhalam. Vedhalam starring Ajith and Shruthi Haasan- Lakshmi Menon is directed by Siva. It is produced by A M Rathinam. Censored with a U certificate, Vedhalam is scheduled for Nov 10th release.

As per the earlier trade reports, Vedhalam was bought by Jazz Cinemas for the Chennai city area distribution rights. Coimbatore area was bought by Sarvam Cinemas, NSC by Pandi Suresh, TT by Subbaiah, Salem by 7G cinemas Siva and Nellai- Kanyakumari by Sekar. Now, in an overnight deal the entire Tamil Nadu distribution rights has been bought by Jazz Cinemas. In short, all the other area distributors will have to deal with Jazz Cinemas.

Jazz Cinemas is a company that is owned by Sasikala relatives and it has been proved through various documents. Jazz acquired the 11 screen multiplex Luxe in Velachery from SPI Cinemas that own Satyam and Escape multiplex.

Vedhalam is getting dubbed as Aavesham in Telugu and getting a release in Andhra, a first for Ajith in eight years. Rathinam who has a clout in Andhra has made this possible. The acquisition of Vedhalam by Jazz Cinemas also ensures that Tamil Nadu entertainment tax will be exempted and thereby a 30% saving for the distributor. Puli was not exempted from ET because the committee cited violence against kids and women. The film had a U certificate, a requisite for seeking ET exemption.

No, I don't remember complaining "back then" (whenever that is). But why should it matter? Does that mean I should not voice my views now?
I feel only in TN (and a few retrograde states) these things will happen. For no fault of Kamal, screen count is deliberately being reduced in the crucial first 10 days, so it impacts the financial result.
This will likely happen to other stars in the future also.

Yes, pathetic state indeed. Of course no denying that DMK did a lot of these as well. Cinema and politics are so very deeply intertwined in TN and is quite unlikely to separate. TV will suffer initially but they cannot crush his spirit if that is their intention ..

No, I don't remember complaining "back then" (whenever that is). But why should it matter? Does that mean I should not voice my views now?
I feel only in TN (and a few retrograde states) these things will happen. For no fault of Kamal, screen count is deliberately being reduced in the crucial first 10 days, so it impacts the financial result.
This will likely happen to other stars in the future also.

Excuse me, I'm terribly sorry to intrude, what about the booking status on those screens where the movie is releasing? how is the advance booking going for you? i presume you find it hard to book a single seat in mayajaal first day?

Sasikala buys Vedhalam outright
Posted in Tamil Nadu By Ayyappa Prasad On November 3, 2015

Chennai, Nov 3(tamilnaducentral): Sasikala owned Jazz Cinemas has bought the Tamil Nadu distribution rights of Vedhalam. Vedhalam starring Ajith and Shruthi Haasan- Lakshmi Menon is directed by Siva. It is produced by A M Rathinam. Censored with a U certificate, Vedhalam is scheduled for Nov 10th release.

As per the earlier trade reports, Vedhalam was bought by Jazz Cinemas for the Chennai city area distribution rights. Coimbatore area was bought by Sarvam Cinemas, NSC by Pandi Suresh, TT by Subbaiah, Salem by 7G cinemas Siva and Nellai- Kanyakumari by Sekar. Now, in an overnight deal the entire Tamil Nadu distribution rights has been bought by Jazz Cinemas. In short, all the other area distributors will have to deal with Jazz Cinemas.

Jazz Cinemas is a company that is owned by Sasikala relatives and it has been proved through various documents. Jazz acquired the 11 screen multiplex Luxe in Velachery from SPI Cinemas that own Satyam and Escape multiplex.

Vedhalam is getting dubbed as Aavesham in Telugu and getting a release in Andhra, a first for Ajith in eight years. Rathinam who has a clout in Andhra has made this possible. The acquisition of Vedhalam by Jazz Cinemas also ensures that Tamil Nadu entertainment tax will be exempted and thereby a 30% saving for the distributor. Puli was not exempted from ET because the committee cited violence against kids and women. The film had a U certificate, a requisite for seeking ET exemption.

Oh, the drama! i'm not looking forward to "in your face" comments but isn't this simple demand vs supply.
please keep your hissy-fits coming, guys! Your excellent sense of perspective is really showing me up for the how uninformed people we are.

[kumarsr]

Excuse me, I'm terribly sorry to intrude, what about the booking status on those screens where the movie is releasing? how is the advance booking going for you? i presume you find it hard to book a single seat in mayajaal first day?

Booking is solid. It is definitely not supply and demand. That's the point. We all know that KH does not bend not coddle. He is paying the price. He should have gone to Poes and given a poookey, you know when.

not really - this is not demand vs supply - its called market spiking , famous in the share market world - creating a sense of demand and eventually creating a bubble and in turn driving sales -

never the less - i am disappointed that this has happened to kamal ( there are too many who want him to fail , even if TV was a solo release this was gonna happen ) ppl raving about kuruthipunal more than muthu , mahanadhi more than veera , guna more than thalapathi , anbe sivam more than dhool .....are testimony that he is the real master

[Munsamy]

But why should it matter? Does that mean I should not voice my views now?.

LOL... For me blood...for everyone else tomato sauce.

[Munsamy]

Yes, pathetic state indeed. Of course no denying that DMK did a lot of these as well. Cinema and politics are so very deeply intertwined in TN and is quite unlikely to separate. TV will suffer initially but they cannot crush his spirit if that is their intention ..
I didn't bring up the point to say that DMK also did that. But the point was that kamal was a beneficiary back then and now he seems to be a victim.

[Munsamy]

He should have gone to Poes and given a poookey, you know when.

You mean the same way he was doing ching chak when DMK was in power ?

[irir123]

Most first day bookings are full/filling fast in Chennai

It's not so complicated. You just need to accept the simple fact that Ajith had already surpassed the BO power of kamal.

[irir123]

Not just Ajith, everyone in TFI has surpassed the BO power of Kamal since 1980 - dude is still hanging on by a flimsy thread with counterfeit money..

Typical victim mentality. Who are these people that want kamal to fail and why do they want him to fail?

[Nasc]

well its not that easy as well.....it all depends on the movie and lead up to it....like kuselan was a flop even before it released vs the expectation for endhiran
the thing i said as i am worried is the whole set of incapable ppl trying to bring him down.....

neenga udaney unarchi vasapadathinga

[Nasc]

Typical victim mentality. Who are these people that want kamal to fail and why do they want him to fail?

the ppl who want him to fail?????

the theatre owners in the first place coz of their insecurity that he brought the new business model of direct to tv - the friction was already created there...(unlike other toothless amaaan chaami stars)
producer council - coz he doesnt budge and stands up to what goes by as business
the whole set of nadigar sangam allakai's
then the back bitters that are typical in any set up....like the sarathkumar's

its better to be him than a puppet star....purtha..

Ultimately, we are going to know in a week to 10 days time

It is so sad that everyone is conspiring against Kamal Haasan.
His business model doesnt work.
He couldn't stand up to DMK. He attended all the function during DMK time and was trying to be a good guy to them. Never opened his miuth about anything important.
Now when the pressure mounted on him, he wanted to run to USA.
Anyways adichu vidunga

his business model doesnt work....relevant to the topic of discussion ..but so sorry u may hv to eat ur words sooner than u expect - direct to house/ device is inevitable and is gonna hit hard - it is already hip deep in some countries - u like it or not u cant stop it

kudos to kamal for trying to bring it in india - there is a name for people like it- visionary :)

his other business model that everyone is following - no: of screens a movie is released in. he started it off with aalavandan - remember DM - vedai??

anyways if u know anything about history - know one thing for sure...its the person who is being conspired against stands the test of time.....right from jesus christ to the great thinkers of the medieval to scientist and rationalist of the 20th century...athu seri....i dont expect u to understand this though ;)

You forgot to add fans and common people to the list.
If you look at the advance booking trend it looks like they also want him to fail
Oh poor kamal.

You are right.
After 10 days we will get to know which movie is better.
Now we know who is the better crowd puller.

Not really. It is just the other power which is pulling(Nermal, evaraiyum ethirkum thaiyrium) him down. You need to get that dude. Ajith surpassing BO power can happen in the future may be in 5+ years boss.

It's good in Coimbatore also.

[Russelljpv]

It seems Kamal is confident about the Movie. That's why he is releasing the Telugu version after 10 days. It's a risky thing as the Tamil version result will certainly affect the Telugu business. If he is not so sure, he would have released both simulataneously.

we all know what you had to do there to hijack the current topic that is being discussed but unfortunately in TN at the least the formation seems very clear like this: (in terms of opening) RK>AK>VJ>Surya>KH. Ain't saying authoritatively but looking at recent fares subjectively one could easily come up to such conclusion.

if you have nothing else to discuss may be we start discussing VR and UV all over again and it's BO success? may be that will help alleviate some of you guys' inferiority complex?

sorry if you had to feel that way, i'm not attacking anyone. people are overly concerned here about less theaters are being taken to screen TVNM due to a (highly controversial) conspiracy theory but i'm questioning back about the booking status. Booking status in my limited observation looks horrible (ignore the villages where Rajaa is) compared to VDLM. So there seems to be very high demand hence they're screening the other movie in more theaters, isn't this simple to understand and accept? but no, typical fort holders still claiming more conspiracy due to other things KH did and only make things worsen for KH. There's another actor with political aspiration who regularly run into release issues but still when his movies release, release in maximum theaters. so people do less evil to the one who directly aspire for their political chairs but do more to someone who sacrificed his life to cinemas alone? i'm least bothered to get to stocks hiking theory.

let ppl enjoy good and quality content movie whoever may be the actor.

the tamil cinema world will look beautiful if cine goers watch a movie which is good and reject one which is dud. (i would always reject MX/MMA kind of movies)

have you (parani/PR etc) ever heard of tom cruise fans vs tom hanks fans. why this happens only in india?

[dell_gt]

yes of late Ayngaran has been disappointing ... they often show one show per weekday ... that too quite late at night, don't see the logic here, as most working class people will hardly watch a film late at night and go to work next day morning :huh:
Just check it out bro.. its not ayngaran release.. someone call qube entertaitment.. new folks may be?

I dont think anybody here including known Ajith fans are looking for Ajith/Kamal toss up. Looks like there may be a few itching for a Ajith-Kamal fan war .. Sorry I think they are in the wrong place.

Most of us want both the movies to do well and keep their respective producers and distributors happy.

[Srimannarayanan]

we all know what you had to do there to hijack the current topic that is being discussed but unfortunately in TN at the least the formation seems very clear like this: (in terms of opening) RK>AK>VJ>Surya>KH. Ain't saying authoritatively but looking at recent fares subjectively one could easily come up to such conclusion.

if you have nothing else to discuss may be we start discussing VR and UV all over again and it's BO success? may be that will help alleviate some of you guys' inferiority complex?

Everybiody knows about you and your Hijacking skills . What you are doing here and posting sarcastic postings.

RK>AK opening lam 2 yeqrs back. Things are very much changed here .Now Ajith has more fans than any body else.

Why should we have inferiority complex. If you have nothing to say, please start discussing about VR and Etc.

and care to talk about what is changed in last 2 years to enlighten us more? the intersection of RK and AK fans are very high hence the spike to opening day numbers for both. if you are adamant to stick to your theory back it up with numbers. RK had one release in last 2 years and i think it stands tall to any other movies released in last 2 years?

sorry if you had to feel that way, i'm not attacking anyone. people are overly concerned here about less theaters are being taken to screen TVNM due to a (highly controversial) conspiracy theory but i'm questioning back about the booking status. Booking status in my limited observation looks horrible (ignore the villages where Rajaa is) compared to VDLM. So there seems to be very high demand hence they're screening the other movie in more theaters, isn't this simple to understand and accept? but no, typical fort holders still claiming more conspiracy due to other things KH did and only make things worsen for KH. There's another actor with political aspiration who regularly run into release issues but still when his movies release, release in maximum theaters. so people do less evil to the one who directly aspire for their political chairs but do more to someone who sacrificed his life to cinemas alone? i'm least bothered to get to stocks hiking theory.

least bothered abt market spiking??? ..well thats exactly what is happening in this case - which i have explained....when u say least bothered abt that na...

This entire thing is played by a few folks with other interests(not sure whose fans they are or if they are the same people with different ids eg. Munsamy). I maintain Ajith regulars are not a part of this and we want to give them their space as well.

pinaathakkoodaadhu - I never took a dig at AK or Vedhalam - post Aasai/Vaali, ppl like me thought AK was/is the ideal vaarisu for Kamal - in terms of doing meaningful roles..

But if you thought most of us were born yesterday, and cannot see through the obvious sleight of hand approach of many masquerading as AK fans when they are not - thats your problem..

I'm just taking the piss out of your posturing. That's all it is. It's a diverting game, but not very challenging. Why even talking about linga now? There's a lack of consistency in your posts, I feel. Perhaps you should order your rage more coherently?

[Russellvzp]

You're simply covering up some of the field work experts like UV, SKV and IRR..

Honestly - anyone who complains about linga and singaraveln almost after an year is an idiot and can be safely ignored. In fact, I can apply that maxim to anyone who keeps talking about year old stories. Had I been less polite, I could get into personal retorts like some of you prefer to do. Perhaps some of you should wait until you've grown into a polite phrase before you attempt to lecture other people on manners.

Having said that, quote me a single post where I offended KH or TVNM. I'm only taking a shot at people's conspiracy theory. I'm biggest RK fan then in current gen, I like AK but when it comes to this forum, I have been neutral to the best of my ability. Even the worst mouthed puli, quote me a single post where I have insulted or defamed the film? I don't want to sound overly antagonistic, but I hate people like that. So I'll try to refrain from posting on this thread since some of you think I'm an alter to one of the existing ids specifically coded to counter and badmouth KH. After all I think I would catch up this movie sooner than VDLM since my parents want to watch this so i wish this movie becomes a sleeper hit like PPNasam. And lastly wishes to KH for his bday and wish him good health and many more happy returns of the special day. Over and out.

Many are waiting for TV to release as there is fear/doubt of of first day release getting blocked.
This includes hardcore fans as well.
Just see how the booking goes up after it hits the screen and people confirm that their time wont be wasted with reimbursement etc.

In Twitter,People are already writing the review after seeing the French film.I think the French film is in full demand. In Indiaglitz interview, the director says it's only based on the French film and not remake.He says it's not heroic movie, realistic one. Looks like some experimentation is there. Anyway, low budget and less hype, so, there won't be big expectation.

கமலின் 'தூங்காவனம்'- துரத்திப் பிடித்த 20 தகவல்கள்


கமலஹாசன், த்ரிஷா, பிரகாஷ்ராஜ், யூகி சேது, மதுஷாலினி உள்ளிட்ட பலர் நடிப்பில் உருவாகி இருக்கும் படம் 'தூங்காவனம்'. ராஜேஷ் எம்.செல்வா இயக்கத்தில் உருவாகி இருக்கும் இப்படத்துக்கு ஜிப்ரான் இசையமைத்து இருக்கிறார். ராஜ்கமல் நிறுவனம் தயாரித்திருக்கும் இப்படத்தை எஸ்கேப் ஆர்டிஸ்ட் நிறுவனம் வெளியிடுகிறது.

* தனது சரக்கை திருடிய போலீஸ் அதிகாரியின் மகனை கடத்தும் போதைப்பொருள் கும்பலின் தலைவன். சரக்கை திரும்பத் தருமாறு மிரட்டுகிறான். தன்னையும் தன் மகனையும் காப்பாற்ற போலீஸ் தந்தை போடும் திட்டமே படம் 'தூங்காவனம்'.

* கமல், த்ரிஷா, கிஷோர் மூவரும் போலீஸ் அதிகாரியாகவும், பிரகாஷ்ராஜ் போதை மருந்து கடத்தல் கும்பல் தலைவனாகவும் நடித்திருக்கிறார்கள். த்ரிஷா நடிப்பில் வெளியாக இருக்கும் 50-வது படம் இது.

* 60 நாட்களில் தமிழ் மற்றும் தெலுங்கு என இரு படப்பிடிப்புகளையும் முடித்திருக்கிறார்கள். படப்பிடிப்புக்குச் சொல்லும் முன்பு படக்குழுவினர் அனைவருக்குமே நடிப்புப் பயிற்சியில் பங்கேற்றதால் தான் விரைவில் முடிக்க முடிந்தது என்கிறது படக்குழு

* தமிழ் மற்றும் தெலுங்கு என இருமொழிகளிலும் படப்பிடிப்பு நடத்தியிருக்கிறார்கள். படத்தில் வரும் காரின் நம்பர் ப்ளேட், போலீஸ் உடை என அனைத்தையுமே மாற்றி தெலுங்கு படத்துக்கான காட்சிகளை எடுத்திருக்கிறார்கள்.

* முரட்டுத்தனமாகாவும் அதே வேளையில் ஸ்டைலாகவும் கமல் இருக்க வேண்டும் என்று முடிவு செய்திருக்கிறார் இயக்குநர் ராஜேஷ். அப்போது, தமிழ் மக்களுக்காக நடைபெற்ற ஒரு போராட்டத்தில் இதே போன்றதொரு தோற்றத்தில் இருந்திருக்கிறார். கமலிடம் "உங்களது தோற்றம் இப்படி இருந்தால் நன்றாக இருக்கும்" என்று அந்த போராட்டத்தின் போது எடுத்த புகைப்படத்தைக் காட்டியிருக்கிறார். இயக்குநர் சொன்னதும், கமல் சரி என்று ஒப்புக் கொண்டார்.

* படப்பிடிப்பு நடைபெறும்போது எடிட்டிங்கும் அங்கேயே நடைபெற்று இருக்கிறது. படப்பிடிப்பு முடிந்து ஒரு நாள் இடைவெளி கொடுத்திருக்கிறார்கள். அதற்கு அடுத்த நாள் முதல் டப்பிங் பணிகள் தொடங்கிவிட்டார்கள். எடிட்டிங்கிற்கு என்று தனியாக எந்த ஒரு நாளையும் படக்குழு செலவிடவில்லை.

* ஒரு நாள் விபத்துக் காட்சிக்கு ஒப்பனை செய்ய ஒப்பனைக் கலைஞரை படக்குழுவினர் அழைக்கவில்லை. ஆனால் அந்த கலை கமலுக்குத் தெரியும் என்பதால், அவரே அன்று ஒப்பனைக் கலைஞராக பணியாற்றி இருக்கிறார்.

* இப்படத்தில் ஒரு முக்கிய பாத்திரத்தில் நடித்திருக்கிறார் மதுஷாலினி. இப்பாத்திரத்துக்கு மதுஷாலினி இருந்தால் நன்றாக இருக்கும் என சிபாரிசு செய்திருக்கிறார் ப்ரியா ஆனந்த்.

* படத்தில் ஒரே ஒரு பாடல் தான். அதுவும் கதைப்படி கிடையாது. அப்பாடலை வைரமுத்து எழுத, கமலே பாடியிருக்கிறார்.

* ஹைதராபாத் மற்றும் சென்னை ஆகிய இரண்டு இடங்களில் மட்டுமே படப்பிடிப்பு நடத்தியிருக்கிறார்கள். இப்படத்துக்காக ஆதித்யா ராம் ஸ்டூடியோவில் பெரிய பார் செட்டப் போடப்பட்டு, அதனுள் பிரத்யேக காட்சிகள் அனைத்தும் படமாக்கப்பட்டு இருக்கிறது.

* இப்படத்தில் த்ரிஷாவின் வேடத்துக்கு பல்வேறு மேக்கப் செய்து பார்த்தார்கள். போலீஸ் வேடம் என்பதால் இறுதியில் எந்த ஒரு மேக்கப்பும் போடாமல் நடித்திருக்கிறார். கண்ணுக்குக் கூட மேக்கப் போடப்படவில்லை.

* 'ஸ்லீப்லஸ் நைட்' என்ற ப்ரெஞ்ச் படத்தின் அதிகாரபூர்வ ரீமேக் தான் 'தூங்காவனம்'. ப்ரெஞ்ச் படத்தில் பணியாற்றிய சண்டைக் கலைஞர்கள் அனைவருமே இப்படத்திலும் பணியாற்றி இருக்கிறார்கள்.

* பாரில் உள்ள சமையல் செய்யும் இடத்தில் கமல் - த்ரிஷா - கிஷோர் மோதும் ஒரு சண்டைக்காட்சி இப்படத்தில் இடம்பெற்று இருக்கிறது.

* படப்பிடிப்பு தளத்தில் பிரம்மாண்டமான விளக்குகள் எல்லாம் போடாமால், படப்பிடிப்பு தளமே முழுக்க விளக்குகளால் அலங்கரிக்கப்பட்டு அந்த வெளிச்சத்தில் மொத்த படத்தையும் படமாக்கி இருக்கிறார்கள்.

* வேறு ஒரு இயக்குநர் இயக்கத்தில் நடிக்கும் போது, இயக்கத்தில் தலையிடுவார் கமல் என்பார்கள். அது குறித்து இயக்குநர் ராஜேஷிடம் கேட்டால், "கமல் சாரிடம் இந்தக் காட்சி எப்படி வந்திருக்கிறது பாருங்கள் என்று கேட்டால், படத்தின் இயக்குநர் நீங்கள் தான், அதைப் பார்க்கத் தான் உங்களுக்கு சம்பளம் கொடுத்திருக்கிறேன்" என்று கமல் சொன்னதாக தெரிவித்தார்.

* இப்படத்துக்கான ஒலிவடிவமைப்பை லாஸ்-ஏஞ்சல்ஸ் நகரில் செய்திருக்கிறார்கள். இதற்காக ஒரு பெரும் தொகையை படக்குழு செய்திருக்கிறது.

* படத்தில் பார் காட்சிகள் அதிகமாக இடம்பெற்று இருப்பதால் சென்சார் அதிகாரிகள் 'U/A' சான்றிதழ் அளித்திருக்கிறார்கள். இப்படத்தின் வெளியீட்டு உரிமையை எஸ்கேப் ஆர்டிஸ்ட் நிறுவனம் பெற்றிருக்கிறது.

* இதுவரை கமலின் தெலுங்கு படங்களுக்கு எஸ்.பி.பாலசுப்பிரமணியம் தான் டப்பிங் பேசியிருக்கிறார். கமல் முதன் முதலில் தெலுங்கில் டப்பிங் பேசிய படம் இது தான்.

* தெலுங்கில் நாகார்ஜுன் மகன் அகிலின் படம் நவம்பர் 11-ம் தேதி வெளியாவதால், 'தூங்காவனம்' தெலுங்கு பதிப்பு நவம்பர் 20-ம் தேதி வெளியாகிறது. அதுவரை ஆந்திராவில் இப்படத்தின் தமிழ் மற்றும் தெலுங்கு என இரு பதிப்புகளின் வெளியீடுமே இல்லை என்கிறது படக்குழு.

* 13 வருடங்களுக்குப் பிறகு ஒரே நாளில் கமல் - அஜித் படம் வெளியாகிறது. 'தூங்காவனம்' - 'வேதாளம்' படங்களுக்கு முன்பாக ஒரே நாளில் வெளியான கமல் - அஜித் படம் 'பம்மல் கே.சம்பந்தம்' - 'ரெட்'.

he wouldnt have done that on his own. some one should have made provocative comments/comparisons. if you would pl give the link, the pic would be clear. im damn sure we wouldnt do that.

You are right UV!!

Its tamil who made fun of Papanasam overal BO numbers after which i started "Rajini Loss thread" and filled it with facts wit links, proof. It was brought down by mods

And after that, its same tamil (and one more fan) who non stop said snide remarks on devar magan, compared it with muthal mariyaathai and belittled DM. And one ajith fan said Nayagan was average and also made lot of wrong comments. THen i reacted with Naayagan's success which was bigger than Manithan

So its always otehr actors fans who start problems and pass the blame on us.

Looks like either the show times are not updated on their websites or may it is true, this websites say the same, very disappointing.. often marana mokkai films are shown a lot more :1
