"Our next project will be 'Thoongaavanam', a thriller. There are rumors that I'm donning the role of a cop, but the actual story is not what they say. I have read their versions, this will be a different project with international quality."

Hmm. Not a cop .. maybe a detective ? Curious on what role he'd take. Read somewhere that Prakash Raj and Trisha were approached .. waiting for more official information.

Looks like a longer film - 40 days of shooting for Telugu version and 35 or 40 more days for Tamil version ? As usual target release date is not announced...

Sir, Please keep a target release date and try to stick to that...

தமிழ், தெலுங்கு இரண்டு வர்த்தகங்களில் ஜெயித்தாலே போதும், வேண்டுமளவுக்கு வசூலை அள்ளிவிடலாம் என்ற கணிப்புக்கு பாராட்டு. இந்தியிலும் எடுக்கிறேன்னு சொல்லிட்டு அங்கிருந்து ஒரு சில நடிகர்களை வரவழைத்து அவர்கள் தமிழை மோசமாக உச்சரிப்பதை எல்லாம் நாம் சகித்துக் கொள்ள வேண்டிவரும். இப்போது அதுபோன்ற இடைஞ்சல்கள் இல்லாமல் ரசிக்கலாம். மேலும் இந்தியிலும் ஒரே நேரத்தில் வெளியானால், இந்திக்கு ஒரு தனிப்பட்ட அறிமுக விழா போன்ற திட்டமிடல்கள்கள் எல்லாம் நேரவிரயம். விறுவிறுப்பான படத்தை அப்படியே டப்பிங் செய்து இந்தியில் வெளியிட்டாலே போதுமானது. கல்லா எவ்வளவு நிரம்புதோ அவ்வளவும் போனஸ். உத்தமவில்லன் போன்ற தமிழுக்கே உரிய படைப்புக்களையும், அண்டை மாநில மக்களும் பார்த்து ரசிக்கிற மாதிரி இதுபோன்ற பொதுவான படைப்புக்களையும் மாறி மாறி படைத்தாலே போதுமானது.

Superb. And promo songs < film songs.

And I wonder whether this too will release before Vishwa 2.

தூங்கா வனம் விறுவிறுப்பான கதையம்சம் உள்ள படம் - கமல், த்ரிஷா பேட்டி

செவ்வாய், 26 மே 2015 (10:20 IST)

கமல் நடிக்கும் த்ரில்லர், தூங்கா வனத்தின் பர்ஸ்ட் லுக் வெளியீடு நேற்று ஹைதராபாத்தில் நடந்தது. அப்படியே படப்பிடிப்பையும் தொடங்கினர். படத்தை இயக்கும் கமலின் உதவி இயக்குனர் ராஜேஷ், த்ரிஷா, பிரகாஷ்ராஜ் ஆகியோர் இந்த நிகழ்வில் கலந்து கொண்டனர்.

கமல்

"நானும் படத்தோட போட்டோஷுட்டுக்கு வந்தேனே, ஆனால் என் படத்தைப் போடாமல் உங்கப்படத்தை மட்டுமே போட்டிருக்கீங்களே என த்ரிஷா கேட்டார். இது முதல் பார்வை மட்டும்தான். இரண்டாவது பார்வையில் உங்கப் படமும் கண்டிப்பாக வரும் என்று சொன்னேன்" என பேட்டியை ஆரம்பித்தார் கமல்.

தூங்கா வனத்தை ஹைதராபாத்தில் தொடங்க என்ன காரணம்?

தூங்கா வனம் தமிழ், தெலுங்கு மொழிகளில் நேரடி படமாக தயாராகிறது. உத்தமவில்லன் பட விழாவுக்காக ஐதராபாத் வந்த போது நிறைய பேர் நேரடி தெலுங்கு படத்தில் எப்போது நடிப்பீர்கள் என்று கேட்டனர். விரைவில் நடிப்பேன் என்று பதில் அளித்தேன். தூங்கா வனம் படம் மூலம் அதை நிறைவேற்றுகிறேன். இந்தப் படம் தெலுங்கில், சீகட்டி ராஜ்ஜியம் என்ற பெயரில் தனியாக எடுக்கப்படுகிறது.

இயக்குனர் ராஜேஷ் பற்றி சொல்லுங்கள்...?

ஏழு ஆண்டுகள் என் சிஷ்யனாக சினிமா பயணத்தில் உடன் இருந்த ராஜேஷ் இந்த படத்தை இயக்குகிறார். ராஜேசுக்கு நான் தான் குரு.

சினிமாவில் வெற்றி தோல்வியை கணிக்க முடியுமா?

படங்கள் எப்படி வெற்றிபெறுகிறது எப்படி தோல்வி அடைகிறது என்பதை யாராலும் கணிக்க முடியாது. ஷோலே படம் ரிலீசானபோது கப்பார் சிங் கேரக்டர் பேசப்பட்டது. ஆனால் படத்தின் வெற்றிக்கு அந்த கேரக்டர்தான் காரணம் என்று சொல்ல முடியாது.

தூங்கா வனம் எப்படிப்பட்ட படம்?

தூங்கா வனம் விறுவிறுப்பான கதையம்சம் உள்ள படமாக இருக்கும்.இரண்டு மணி நேரம் எப்படி போனது என்று தெரியாத அளவுக்கு படத்தை பார்த்து விட்டு ரசிகர்கள் வெளியே வருவார்கள்.

Kamal Haasan is known for collaborating with famous novel writers including Balakumaran, Sujatha and he recently joined hands with writer Jeyamohan for his upcoming film Papanasam.

Now we have got an official confirmation that the actor is joining hands with one more famous writer, Suka for Thoongaa Vanam.



It is said that both Suka and Kamal shared a close rapport during the shooting of Papanasam that the writer helped Kamal to get the Nellai dialect with perfection.

Suka has already directed Arya’s production venture Padithurai which is yet to be released and he is known for his series ‘Moongil Mudichu’ in Ananda Vikatan which deals about the pride of Tirunelveli.

But people call KH as narcissistic..stupid..More than any artist KH is the one who involves literature,culture and related people more into the cinema..Balakumaran, Sujatha ,Gnasammantham ,Suka ,E.R murugan ,etc..
In Vishwaroopam he used kathak dance,bought Birju Maharaj to limelight down south and he won national award as well..
For UV he used old forgotten theyyam dance,Attakalari group from banaglore and the famous villu paatu expert subbu arumugam again..From 2000's he is using many people from "Koothu-P-Pattarai" like pasupathy,etc

As he said cinema is truly a democratic art but not many taking it like that apart from few like KH..

feed good interview. before crew joined, Kamal did some extra ordinary face expressions and those eyes and eye brows are just implementing whatever he trying to do. Amazing one to watch. The way he twist the elbow by keeping the palm straight... another tricky act.

Saw an interview of choreographer Brinda (the same Brinda who played Nagesh's daughter in 'Nammavar')…

The interviewer asked a question abt Brinda working with all the big names and when it came to Kamal, Brinda was all starry-eyed - "Kamal - every cell of his body is steeped in dance forms - so anyone has to keep in mind so many things while composing a dance for him - you have to be aware of symmetry, coordination of limbs and fluidity etc…He knows a lot about what to do with camera placement and how to get a certain desired effect without losing the aesthetics .."

It was such a ripe opportunity to pursue further with questions any kuppan suppan would have asked..

I would have asked "how does Kamal integrate his sense of aesthetics even in his body language when acting ? how have his dance skills helped him in facial expressions given that facial expressions are integral to many dance forms? how many takes does he do to get what he wants? how does he practice before a shoot?'

That interviewer asked NOTHING even remotely resembling any of this - instead her response was a tepid/timid silly 'aamaamla avaru oru dancer'.. and then jumped to some other actor/actress who cannot dance even in their dreams..

I banged my head - ippadiyumaa gyaana soonyam iruppaanga?

“WHAT WILL I BE DOING AMIDST ACTORS LIKE KAMAL AND PRAKASH RAJ?”
http://behindwoods.com/tamil-movies-cinema-news-15/actor-sampath-joins-thoonga-vanam-directed-by-rajesh-and-featuring-kamal-haasan.html

Actor Sampath who had made an impactful portrayal in films like Aaranya Kaandam, Goa and many more, is the latest addition to the Kamal starrer Thoonga Vanam. The film directed by Rajesh features Prakash Raj, Trisha, Kishore and others. Ghibran scores music in this action thriller.

In a brief chat, Sampath talks about how he is on board Thoonga Vanam

Why we don’t see you in Tamil these days?
I have been listening to quite a lot of scripts in Tamil. I was clear that I want to do something substantial and nice. I was not keen on going back to do the same routine. Meanwhile my projects in Telugu also kept me busy. So when Rajesh called me for Thoonga Vanam, I was quite excited.

How did Thoonga Vanam happen?
Rajesh spoke to me some time back with a role in Thoonga Vanam. My fear was, what I will be doing amidst actors like Kamal and Prakash Raj. But when I heard about my role, I was quite thrilled. Rajesh kept a track of my films and he said, after watching me in Aaranya Kaandam, he can’t give roles that are not substantial and impactful to me. He also said that he had no second choice for my role and wanted just me. When he mentioned this to Kamal sir, apparently, he also approved of it. I will be playing a very strong character in the film but can't reveal details of it.

How do you feel to be working with the legend?
I told Rajesh, to share screen space with the legend like Kamal, in itself is a big feat. For me it’s like going to a premier institute. I always aspired to go to an IIM but as I was not good in academics, I could not do that. But now, I would be going to a premier university of acting. There is not a single department in film making that Kamal is not aware of. I am happy and I will be joining the sets from Monday, the 8th June.

Directing the mentor
On the third day of shoot, I was shooting with a kid who didn’t get his act right. I went to sir and asked him if he would check the take and he replied, ‘It’s your job; that’s why I’m paying you.’

– Rajesh M Selva

For Rajesh M Selva, director of superstar Kamal Haasan-starrer ‘Cheekati Rajyam’, the thought of wielding the megaphone for a project never crossed his mind. “I began my career as Kamal sir’s third assistant director for ‘Marmayogi’ in 2008.

Though the film was shelved, I continued to work with his production house as they were regularly into films irrespective of the box-office results. After a journey of eight years, he felt I am ready to direct him,” says a smiling Rajesh, who studied Visual Communication. “It is like he is sending me to the examination hall now and I have to pass the test of what I learnt from him.”

Describing the film as an action thriller peppered with romance and family drama, Rajesh, who has his roots in Nellore, says, “I can vouch that Kamal sir hasn’t done this kind of film in a long time. It’s his safest commercial bet.” Chennai-bred Rajesh is touched by the complete support and liberty that he is receiving from the versatile actor, who is also producing the film.

“He gave me the freedom to choose my team – from cameraman Sanu Varghese to acting talents like Prakash Raj, Sampath and Kishore,” he exclaims, adding, “So far, I was his assistant director meeting his demands and now I’m looking at him from a director’s point of view. When he refers to me as the director, I feel like I’m in a dream world.”

After a pause he adds, “On the third day of shoot, I was shooting with a kid who didn’t get his act right. I went to sir and asked him if he would check the take and he replied, ‘It’s your job; that’s why I’m paying you.’ What more can I ask for?”

And admittedly, Kamal is everything for him. “Whenever I was down, I used to get a call from him asking me to work for him,” he recalls with a choke in his voice. “During the first three days of ‘Cheekati Rajyam’, we were really worried and had a feeling that something was going wrong.

After the fourth day, we showed him the footage. He was happy with what he saw and said, ‘You are going in the right track, go ahead.’ It was like a big pat on our back.” The director remembers how Kamal went out of his way to do prosthetic make-up for Trisha and Prakash Raj for a portion in the film. “It was actually a slip-up on my part.

I was supposed to call the prosthetic team but I forgot. When I explained the situation to sir, he said, ‘The shoot is tomorrow, right? We’ll figure out a way.’ But to the team’s surprise, though it was his reserve day, he dropped by the location and did the make-up for Trisha and Prakash Raj.”

கமல்ஹாசனின் 'தூங்காவனம்' பிரெஞ்சு படத்தின் ரீமேக்


கமல் நடித்து வரும் 'தூங்காவனம்' ப்ரெஞ்சு படமான 'ஸ்லீப்லஸ் நைட்ஸ்' படத்தின் அதிகாரப்பூர்வ ரீமேக் என தகவல்கள் வெளியாகி இருக்கிறது

'உத்தம வில்லன்' படத்தைத் தொடர்ந்து கமல்ஹாசன் தனது இணை இயக்குநர் ராஜேஷ் இயக்கும் படத்தில் நடித்து வருகிறார். அப்படத்தில் முக்கிய வேடத்தில் த்ரிஷா, பிரகாஷ்ராஜ், மதுஷாலினி, யூகி சேது உள்ளிட்ட பலர் நடித்து வருகிறார்கள்.

படத்தில் கமல் போலீஸ் அதிகாரியாக நடிக்க இருக்கிறார். இப்படம் ஒரே இரவில் நடக்கும் த்ரில்லர் கதையாகும். இப்படத்தின் படப்பிடிப்பு ஹைதராபாத்தில் தொடங்கி நடைபெற்று வருகிறது.

இந்நிலையில், "கமலின் 'தூங்காவனம்' படம் ஒரு வெளிநாட்டு படத்தின் ரீமேக்காகும். ஆனால், எந்த படத்தின் ரீமேக் என்பதை படம் வெளியாகும் முன்பு கமல் தெரிவிக்க இருக்கிறார்" என்று படக்குழு சார்பில் தெரிவித்தார்கள்.

மேலும், மற்றொரு தரப்பில் இருந்து இப்படம் 'ஸ்லீப்லஸ் நைட்' என்ற படத்தின் அதிகாரப்பூர்வ ரீமேக் என்று தெரிவித்திருக்கிறார்கள்.

ஒரு போலீஸ் அதிகாரி எப்படி தனது மகனை இரவு நேரத்தில் நடக்கும் சம்பவத்தில் இருந்து காப்பாற்றினார் என்பதே 2011ம் ஆண்டு வெளியான 'ஸ்லீப்லஸ் நைட்' திரைப்படத்தின் கதையாகும்.

'தூங்காவனம்' படத்தின் கதையும் ஒரே இரவில் நடக்கும் கதை, கமல் போலீஸ் அதிகாரி என்று தகவல்கள் வெளியாகி இருக்கிறது.

'ஸ்லீப்லஸ் நைட்' படத்தின் பணியாற்றிய கில்லஸ் கோன்செய், சில்வியன் கேபட், வெர்ஜின் அர்னாட் என்ற சண்டை இயக்குநர்கள் 'தூங்காவனம்' படத்திலும் பணியாற்ற ஒப்பந்தம் செய்யப்பட்டு இருக்கிறார்கள்.

சமீபத்தில் இப்படக்குழு ஹைதராபாத்தில் உள்ள ரிங் சாலையில் துரத்தல் காட்சி ஒன்றை படமாக்கியது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.

I hope it is not too gritty and violent....Here's what one reviewer had to day about Sleepless night:

As the film critic Anthony Lane once observed, there’s nothing so exhausting as being goaded into a state of constant excitement. He wasn’t talking about “Sleepless Night,” but the shoe fits. Hectic and harebrained, this galloping French thriller tosses a potpourri of plot points — crooked cops, sleazy gangsters, stolen drugs and an underage hostage — into a packed-to-the-gills nightclub, and stirs. Repeatedly.

Shrugging off the need for a fully developed story, the director, Frédéric Jardin (who also contributed to the script), weaves a sticky web of special interests bound by blood and fistfights and dizzying double crosses. His spider is Vincent (Tomer Sisley), a corrupt police officer who must return the cocaine he nabbed from a vicious dealer in order to release his son from the dealer’s sweaty clutches. The exchange is complicated by a nosy Internal Affairs team, a labyrinthine location and a bleeding knife wound that thankfully proves irrelevant to Vincent’s pummeling ability.

Charging from one beating to another, wrenching diminishing returns from drunken camera angles and cat-and-mouse games, Mr. Jardin makes Vincent’s predicament as hollow as a sustained scream. As he elbows his way for the umpteenth time through a sea of gyrating bodies, he pulls the story’s moral and locational mazes into overlap, and, briefly, we see a glimmer of a more thoughtful film.

Unfortunately, Mr. Jardin fails to notice; he’s too busy mocking Pierre Cardin and lecturing the villains on free will. Be sure to exercise yours.

VR was different -- the first 30 minutes was different from the rest of the movie and movie as a whole had a tried to explore the terrorist psyche with sub plots and emotions and some depth.

They will have to make some changes to suit the audience here. How interestingly they do it will determine the final outcome.

Most of the movie takes place in a few rooms in the original version. Lots of dead bodies. Tons of violence. Not sure why Trisha's character is so de-glam? If you need a mother of a 12 year old who is a single parent, it has to be Manisha. So she is back again.

But, OTOH, they are remaking this French movie in Hollywood. So people see potential apparently

Read that she's playing his wife ..

The Ulaganayagan obviously was very impressed with her performance that he promptly signed her for his ‘Thoongavanam’. The director of the film Rajesh M Selva revealed that Asha is playing the important role of Kamal’s wife. The thirty nine year old Asha Sarath debuted as an actress only in the year 2012 and within such a short time in her career she has got the opportunity to pair up with one of India’s most celebrated actors.

Kamal Haasan’s Thoongavanam is fast progressing at ECR opposite VGP Golden beach in Chennai. Reliable sources reveal that the art direction team has erected a massive set resembling a club in the area. It is also said that without the camera and the rest of the set-up, general public is likely to mistake the set as a party place and might even go to the extent of buying entry tickets. The place is said to look that authentic and real. The pub is named as Insomnia catering to the title.

Currently the unit is shooting few important scenes along with a song sequence. Kamal, Trisha and Kishore are participating in the shoot. Kamal was seen singing along for a trippy track of Ghibran. About fifty odd junior artists were also said to be part of the shoot. Kamal was reportedly spotted in a white shirt and a dark pant with blood all over his dress. Trisha and Kishore were seen with bruises on their face looking tired and devastated.

These things suggest that the film could be high on action with a pub as its core. Stay tuned for more updates!

From Trisha

......

After a gap, you are on a signing spree, and are part of big projects. Can you tell us about it?
At this point of time in my career, I have the liberty to pick and choose films. The gap that I had in the industry was not intentional, as I just took some time to choose a few scripts carefully. And moreover, most of the directors now are coming up with heroine-oriented scripts and it is always exciting to be a part of such films. Even my role in Kamal sir's Thoongavanam is a very strong one and has scope to perform. It's completely different from my previous films.

How is it to work with Kamal Haasan again, after Manmadhan Ambu? When it comes to work, Kamal sir is just a passionate lover of cinema, who gives his life for cinema. He gets so much involved with every role in the film, and discusses it with the actors who are going to portray it onscreen. He also gets inputs from them. For me, acting in his film is like going back to school. In Thoongavanam, I will be dubbing for myself once again, as Kamal sir always insists on my doing so. The outdoor portions of the film were shot in Hyderabad and the indoor ones are being shot in Chennai.

Guess you have a different look in the film, going by the picture you had posted of Kamal Haasan doing makeup for you...
Well, I can't say much about my character in the film as of now. But yes, there is lot of prosthetic makeup involved for a particular scene, and Kamal sir has done it himself. He is knowledgeable about every department of cinema, and it's a pleasure to be on the set with him.

''IT IS POSITIVE FOR ME TO BE A PART OF KAMAL SIR’S FILM AGAIN''

Asha Sharath who essayed the role of a fierce police officer in the recently released Kamal starrer Papanasam will also be a part of Ulaganayagan’s film in the making, Thoongavanam.

The beautiful and the talented actress spoke to behindwoods on the film, her role, Tamil audience and of course Kamal Haasan.

About Thoongavanam and her role, Asha says, “My part got completed in Hyderabad. I cannot discuss much about my role in the film as it would be like revealing the entire story. All that I can state is that it is a very prominent role. I play a doctor and am Kamal’s wife in the film. It is like a cameo but I will be in the film throughout in small portions spread across the entire length. It is positive for me to be a part of Kamal’s film again”.

How was it to work with Kamal within a short time? “I thank God and Kamal sir for the wonderful opportunity. I was much excited to receive a call to do a film with Kamal sir in quick succession. I heard the script and understood about my role. To me it was like a blessing. First I played a police officer and now as Kamal’s wife. The film is a bilingual in Tamil and Telugu and my first film in Telugu”.

KamalHaasan’s new idea for ‘Thirupathi Brothers’

It is a known fact that Kamal’s ‘Uttama Villain’ was a huge failure at Box-Office. The movie released after two days and that was touted to be the main reason.


However ‘Papanasam’ changed KamalHaasan’s fortunes. But Lingusamy is still unable to recover and even his ‘Rajini Murugan’ is still searching a way for a release. Now Kamal who was earlier expected to act in a comedy movie, has backed out of the project.

Sources say, ‘ThoongaVanam’ has been handovered to Thirupathi Bros. As time never permits for Kamal Haasan even to work on a small projectand and he is keen to start his next bi-lingual project ‘Thalaivan Irukiraan’, the distribution rights to ‘ThoongaVanam’ is likely to be provided to ‘Thirupathi Bros’. ‘ThoongaVanam’ is produced by Raaj Kamal Films International and the budget is said to be 30 Crores excluding Kamal’s budget.

PN had made more than 100C. Overseas its slightly less becos most of them saw drishyam and each dollars count for NRIs. But ThoongaVanam is a fresh SCript. atelast for Indian audience. So it will easily make a 150C BO Collections. If done well it may even go 200. Its budget may be 30C. But becos of that kamal may not just give the whole film rights to Lingu. At max lingyu may get an area rights which is 30C worth.

Kamal Haasan’s 'Thoongaavanam' to feature one song
http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/02508/THAVD_KAMAL_2508447f.jpg
The song is composed by Ghibran, who is currently busy working on the film’s background score.

Actor-filmmaker Kamal Haasan’s upcoming Tamil-Telugu bilingual thriller Thoongaavanam will feature only one song composed by Ghibran, who is currently busy working on the film’s background score.

“The song has been crooned by Kamal sir and penned by Vairamuthu. We’ve already recorded the Tamil version and will soon work on the Telugu version,” the film’s director Rajesh Selva said.

Having recently completed the principal shooting, the team is currently busy with the post-production work.

Also starring Trisha Krishnan, Prakash Raj, Sampath Raj, Madhu Shalini and Kishore, the film is a remake of French thriller Sleepless Night.

Titled Cheekati Rajyam in Telugu, it’s gearing up for Diwali release.

13th August 2015, 04:34 PM
'Thoongaavanam' will see Kamal Haasan in a high-energy, racy, action-packed role says music director Ghibran

Music director Ghibran came into the limelight in the Tamil film industry with Vaagai Sooda Vaa and the rest as they say is history. Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan calls Ghibran brilliant while ace singer S P Balasubrahmanyam requested him to give him an opportunity to sing for him! The 35-year-old music director may just have ten Tamil film albums to his credit but four of those are Kamal Haasan films. The down-to-earth Ghibran talks to dna about his music, Kamal Haasan and his career in the Tamil film industry.

How did you develop an interest in music?
I don’t come from a music background. One day I saw Yanni’s performance on TV when I was about 7 or 8 years old and that triggered my interests in music. Then I won a singing competition in our colony in Coimbatore and started singing classes. My family went through a bad time and we shifted to Chennai after my 10th standard and I had to start working. I learnt how to play the piano and completed grade eight and post that I started composing jingles. I set up my home studio in 2000 (which apparently was the first one in Chennai) and worked full-time on this. I even bought a house with my earnings.

You then went to Singapore to study music.
Yes, I decided to go to Singapore to study music but the minimum qualification was 12th standard. So at the age of 25, I did my 12th standard exams and passed with 80 per cent! I sold my house to fund my studies. When I came back to Chennai after my course, I found that all my clients had moved on. Sarkunam and I were friends and his Kalavani had become a hit. He then roped me in for Vaagai Sooda Vaa.

You won a lot of awards for Vaagai Sooda Vaa (VSV) but you didn’t sign on any other film for a year.
I was being offered a lot of films but they were all village-based subjects like VSV. I didn’t want to get typecast because I think your strength can also become your weakness. I was waiting to do a film that would show another dimension of my music and that’s when Vathikuchi came along. It was really different from VSV. Though the movie may not have done well at the box office, the music was widely appreciated.

Did the Kuttipuli controversy put you off the Tamil film industry?
I wasn’t aware at all what the director of the film, Muthiah, had changed in terms of the music or background score. Raja sir and Rahman’s songs had been used to replace my music in several parts of the film. It was only after the film’s release I was made aware and I was really upset about the criticism I received.

Considering you aren’t from the film industry, did you understand how the film industry works after this controversy?
I still don’t know how the film industry works! (Laughs) I made a few mistakes in the selection of films early on in my career. I realised that I should work with people I am comfortable with. I selected projects by logic but they backfired. I think going by intuition works best for me and I take a call after meeting the director and listening to the story. It’s about how passionate people are. As for me otherwise, I’m not a party person or attend too many events in the film industry. I prefer going to a local tea shop and having a chai.

How did you feel when you got the first call from Kamal Haasan?
I got a call from his office when I was really feeling low. At the point, I was contemplating on what to do but quitting the film industry was not on my mind. When I got the call, I thought that maybe that was God’s way of telling me that I should continue in the Tamil film industry.

I was actually quite nervous the first time I met him. After the first few meetings, I was more comfortable and he made me feel comfortable as well. I was signed on by him for Vishwaroopam 2 and I never knew that I would be doing Uthama Villain. He told me that later.

You’ve done four films with Kamal Haasan now. What’s the equation you share with him?
In an interview of his, Kamal Haasan had stated that he liked working with me because he considers me as a learned person. I feel the same way about him. While he talks to you about music, for instance, he’ll draw inferences from Tamil literature, classical music to Broadway and more. Though I am definitely not as learned as he is, I do understand his thought process and can connect the dots. I think that’s why I share a good equation with him.

Tell us about Thoongaavanam.
The audience will see Kamal Haasan in a high-energy, racy, action-packed role in this film. There is only one song in this film and it’s sung by him with lyrics by Vairamuthu.

Are you not looking at doing mass commercial films in Tamil?
I would love to! People somehow think I’m this serious person but I’m not. I’m goofy, fun-loving and can be stupid. (Laughs) I definitely want to commercial films in Tamil. I did Run Raja Run and Jil in Telugu and they were very successful. Currently, I am working on a Vikram film and one more small film in Tamil. I am in talks for some projects in Telugu as well.

Your wife is a scientist. What feedback does she give you about your music?
The only advice she constantly gives me is to select good films. (Laughs)

Thoongavanam: It's Kamal Haasan vs Trisha in this action-thriller

Kamal Haasan, who will be next seen in Thoongavanam, has wrapped up the shooting of the action-thriller, and the film is currently in its post production. Buzz has it that the actor will be seen at loggerheads with none other than Trisha in this bilingual film. Trisha, who is playing a pivotal role in the film, will be seen taking on Kamal Haasan. The fight is choreographed in a realistic way by French stuntmen.

"This fight sequence takes place in the kitchen of a restaurant. Kamal and Trisha will be seen exchanging blows. The action has been choreographed very realistically by French stuntmen trio Gilles Conseil, Sylvain Gabet and Virgie Arnaud," a source from the film's unit told IANS.

Kamal Haasan's 'Thoongavanam' to release before Diwali?

Kamal Haasan and his team of high spirited professionals sparked a surprise by completing the shooting of ‘Thoongavanam’ in just 38 days. The post production work for the Rajesh M. Selva directed film that began earlier this month is going at a break neck speed and sources say that all the actors have completed dubbing for the film and the music director Ghibran is spending hours together on the background score.

While the earlier film was being touted as a Deepavali release, sources say that Raj Kamal Films International, the producers of the film are considering a release date ahead of the festival of lights, which is two months away from now.

Looks great. In terms of cinematic quality, it's been a fantastic year for Kamal. I expect Thoongavanam to be an ideal follow up to Uttama Villain and Papanasam in this regard.

The Golden Brown color tone and the blue letters give it brighter and rich feel....

Uv, thats becos I am more towards a completely fresh script like UV, VR, Dasa ect than a remake, inspite of how many mods he has done on the screenplay.. so iam more looking towards Thalaivan Irukkindraan or some other fresh script!
