KAMAL, VIKRAM AND SURIYA IN MANI RATNAM’S FILM



Nov 03, 2010

Home > More news

Mani Ratnam’s next film may be based on the popular novel Ponniyin Selvan. This novel is in five parts containing several thousands of pages. Of this, Mani had picked out the best 80 scenes to weave it into an entertainer.

Coming to the actors that may be a part of this prestigious project, there are reports that Kamal Haasan, Vikram and Suriya are being considered for the role.

While Kamal has not given the go-ahead for this film, Vikram and Suriya have almost said ‘yes’ as they want to be a part of this film.

This film would naturally require a huge budget and news is that Sun Pictures may take it under its wings

If some sources are to be believed there is a mother of all multi starrers in recent times is in on the cards. Some of the biggest names are said to be a part of this big one.

This ‘believe it-or-not’ story is spreading like wild fire lately. Vikram and Suriya are coming together along with Telugu Super Star Mahesh Babu for a film that will be directed by none other than Mani Ratnam.

The huge star cast is possible only in a Mani film and given the fact that Vikram and Suriya have already worked with Mani Ratnam the news could be true. More over Vikram and Suriya have already come together for Bala in the film ‘Pithamagan’.

And for the story, Mani Ratnam is said to treading on the familiar route. Mani Ratnam who usually transforms a historical or a mythological into a social story has taken the classic ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ this time according to sources. The most popular novel of modern Tamil literature is being adapted to contemporary times they say.

‘Raavanan’ is history now. Vandiyadevan, Arulmozhivarman and Kundavai are going to be the new idols.

So it means a straight tamil film 8-) Anyone kind enough to write the gist of ponniyin selvan..i have absolutely no clue on whats the novel all about :oops:

---

Mahen, Ponniyin Selvan is the story of Arulmozhivarman @ Raja Raja Cholan (before he was crowned as the King). It has interesting plots and amazingly written characters. The novel was published in 5 parts, thus, it's hard to explain the same in 5 sentences :oops:

Actually well fit for a commercial movie. Padikkum boathe sema interestingaa irukkum..

I believe MGR wanted to Make a movie on this. then Kamal and there were even news long back that Kamal may opt this for a TV Serial as bringing this in 3 hours might be difficult.

Hope this helps, but even here its elaborate...

This may also help, if u find tough to read tanglish

sakala
wil kamal do it?..any clues?

No way Kamal is doing this. Seems like a fantasy rumor. Read another rumor that Jeyamohan is being offered 2 Crores to write dialogues. Even if it's all nonsense, the fact that Suhasini is nowhere in vicinity of this project would please folks!

"Well-known writer Jayamohan has been lured by Sun Pictures for a fancy amount of ` 2 crores for dialogues, which according to sources in the industry, is the highest payment for a dialogue writer. Earlier, accredited Malayalam writer M.T.Vasudevan Nair was paid a similar amount for Pazhassi Raja."
