Gautham signs Samantha, Amy and Shiva for next
There is a lot happening in the camp of Gautham Menon. The classy director is occupied every moment of these days. Working on Nadunisi Naaygal, Vinnaithandi Varuvaya Hindi remake as the director and Veppam and Azhagarsamiyin Kuthirai as the producer at the moment, Gautham is yearning for more glory.
Gautham has announced the revival of his beloved project ‘Chennaiyil Oru Mazhaikaalam'. The movie has four heroes and three heroines. It was launched four years ago with Trisha and Veera but put on ice later.
Now Gautham has announced the resumption of the romance and he is said to have signed his favourites Samantha and Amy Jackson as two of the heroines and Shiva as one of the heroes.
One of the highlights of the movie is the music by AR Rahman. An official announcement from Gautham Menon regarding this project is expected any moment from now.
The news about the Chennayil Oru Malaikaalam revival are only false rumours I think. Gautham Menon has already announced his next movie in Tamil

A game of cat and mouse between a dashing young Indian cop and a bandit set in 1920 India. The sheer skill and intellect of one man’s genius in hunting down a dangerous criminal sans modern day technology but with brilliantly visualized action sequences.

AR Rahman’s Jai Ho Concert: The Journey Home World Tour astounds and astonishes
by Ailsa Windsor
Last night (Friday 26 November 2010) AR Rahman’s entourage reached Durban which is home to the largest number of Indians who have settled in the diaspora. Making the concert even more special is the fact that this is the year which celebrates the 150th anniversary of the first Indian indentured labourers to reach South Africa’s shores
ights, camera, action! Such was the setting at the Moses Mabhida Stadium for one of the most magnificent concerts to reach Durban… and it’s all been captured on film. AR Rahman’s ‘Jai Ho: Journey Home World Tour’ is a fusion of colour and music with backdrops which range from lights to photographs and even painted settings.
There is something for everyone as he has catered for all musical tastes. Traditional sitar combines with electric guitar; jazz moves into hip-hop; and the sound of the flute infuses both Indian and Irish melodies. One can’t leave out the drums and timpani as it’s the beat which permeates the stadium and infiltrates one’s mind and body. There’s no reason to sit still – it’s a concert which begs for you to leave your seats and party along.
Energetic dancers prove that synchronicity is the name of the game and their smiles indicate that not only are they pulsating with energy, but express their love for what they do. In addition, the fusion of dance forms causes one to gaze in awe. In fact, one can even say that the choreography has given new insight into hip-hop.
However, this isn’t merely music there is a tale woven into the production of a lad who retraces his roots and finds his way home into the arms of his family. Spirituality and tradition have also been woven into the journey.
According to Rahman it took eight months to put together this theatrical explosion which came to us with an African touch as well as a surprise performance by the Soweto Gospel Choir. However, as Rahman said: “It’s the love that binds it all together. Hindi, Tamil, English…all in the land of Nelson Mandela and Gandhi!”
The rain came pouring down towards the end of the concert, but I believe this was actually a good sign as the concert, when performed in India, always closed in the rain. But, perhaps it’s even more than that – it’s saying goodbye with a tear in the eye to AR Rahman, his talented cast members and musicians as the leave South Africa and continue their tour! Hamba kahle, Namaste, travel safely and return to us soon!

While conventional career options get lavish funds, alternate ones like music – that has been bringing awards and accolades to the country for years — are not even perceived as a secure career by parents and are still just a hobby. Rahman has set 2011 as the year to positively make sure that his dreams come true and is even setting time aside from his busy schedule to meet potential investors. But the Maestro from Madras is picky about who he will associate with to take his cherished project forward.
He wants committed partners. So, he is carefully considering the people. He has also scheduled meetings with some others whom he would want to partner with. Many global investors are ready to join him too. Rahman's aide confirms to BT about Rahman feeling the heat of being cash strapped. "Funding is just one aspect so the news is not true in its entirety. More important is to get the right people and expertise to run it in a professional manner. The benchmark has to be really high. We don't want to rush into it though there have been several feelers from people who have shown interest in the project."

PRIYADARSHAN'S GRRRR WITH AB, AR RAHMAN
Priyadarshan signed a 3-film deal with Percept Picture Company some time back. The projects include AIDS, sequel to his yesteryear comedy blockbuster Maalamal Weekly and Grrrr. Grrrr is shaping up into a big budget flick as Priyadarshan has signed the most proficient technicians that includes academy award winner AR Rahman. Since the film will be shot in the deep-rooted forests of Africa, the filmmaker has been holding talks with top-charting cinematographers to shoot the film.
Amitabh Bachchan will play the lead role that of a British hunter Jim Corbett, who embarks a hazardous journey into the forests to hunt down a dangerous beast that has been preying on people. The film is expected to go on floors next year as Priyadarshan is busy now with the shooting schedules of his multi-starrer movie 'Tez'.
