Thoughts on the trailer of 'Thoongavanam'
http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/d...r_2553605f.jpg
The trailer of Thoongavanam suggests that the rumours about the film being a remake of Sleepless Night may well be true. There’s the bit where Trisha mentions that she knows Kamal through “Bombay NCB” (Narcotics Control Bureau). There you go; it’s about drugs, like the French film.
Meanwhile, Prakash Raj looks like he plays a tasteless (if his buttoned-down, gaudy suits and the thick gold chain are any indication) rich don, who isn’t too happy with how things are going. In one scene, he is shown storming out of a bar, escorted by henchman Sampath.
Perhaps the most important takeaway from the trailer is how much action there seems to be. Sleepless Night, when released in 2011, received high praise for its breathless action sequences. There’s even a quick reference to the famous kitchen fight in the movie, on evidence of the two-second clip that shows Kamal throwing everything but the, er, kitchen sink at Kishore, who looks menacing with his bald look and handlebar moustache. Expect to see a lot — and I mean a lot — of realistic fight sequences. Expect also to see a lot of trigger-happy gangsters and policemen. I counted at least three shots fired by Kamal. And for good reason, considering that almost everybody, including Prakash Raj, Sampath, Kishore and Trisha, don’t quite seem to be on his side. Who he does have by his side is his Panchathanthiram sidekick Yugi Sethu, who’s often seen loyally trailing behind him. Meanwhile, Kamal-regular Ghibran steps into hard rock territory with searing guitar riffs, in tune with the urban theme of the film.
A lot seems to be at stake for the protagonist, as is evident from a Taken-like moment, when Kamal calmly informs his enemies that if his son, who’s obviously kidnapped, were harmed in any manner, he’d destroy every single one of them. There’s a tiny Rajini moment when he follows that line with: “Naan sonna seiven.” And there’s some poetic irony here, considering that on the day of the trailer’s release — September 16 — the first look of Rajini’s Kabali was released. Phew, Rajini and Kamal on the same day. You can’t make these things up.

^ Certain dialogues have actually been retained as seen from the trailer and same is the case with certain shots. This ones going to be pretty similar to the original with the length of the movie and a few additional scenes being the only changes. Not fiddling too much with the script is a good option in my opinion.
