My grandma likes Vijay among his generation actors. However she didn't like Thuppakki or Ghilli. But this Pudhiya Geethai continues to amuse her. அப்படி என்னத்தான் இருக்கோ அந்த படத்துல?

I too did like the attitude of vijay in that movie, the message where good have only mortal deaths and not their fames, poorly executed good story material. Nothing to complain, vijay could have gone with big directors, he instead chose newbies he burnt his fingers in few, this is one of them

POSITIVE THINKING is imperative for achieving goals, is what Viswaas' "Pudhiya Geethai" underlines. The end is predictable, but the conviction with which the climax drives home the message makes it interesting.
Sarathi (Vijay) is an incredibly energetic young man — student, businessman, a friend in need and a loving son. The bubbling enthusiasm, genial smile that has a shade of innocence about it and the busy-as-a-bee kind of role is rather new for the generally stone-faced, slothful Vijay one is used to watching on screen.
The film gets its title from the fact that the hero expounds on life's philosophy. Suji (Meera Jasmine), a bespectacled dullard, is a friend of Sarathi, till things take a different turn. Jo (Amisha Patel) is again a friend. Predictions at birth clearly indicate that this wizard of a hero would live only till the age of 27. And the story takes off from Sarathi's 27th year.
Vijay presents the character that has a quite a few nuances, creditably. Mention must be made of the scene in which he desperately reels out details about himself, to the doctor, even as he is losing consciousness. The dialogue, in particular, helps make the necessary impact. Suji (Meera Jasmine), who is initially childish, blossoms into a mature girl, once she falls in love. The sudden transformation is unrealistic. And spectacles or no spectacles this heroine is indeed charming. But the same cannot be said of Amisha Patel, who makes her debut in Tamil with "Pudhiya Geethai".
Thin in appearance and artificial in expression, Amisha has not made her Tamil launch memorable.
Reddiar (Kalabhavan Mani), is the stereotyped villain. But the interesting change is reserved for the climax, where Mani makes an impression.
Kalairani deserved better roles, one always thought. The little scope she's been given, she has utilised well in "... Geethai." Sanjay is almost a constant in Vijay's films. As the fisherman friend Lawrence, who is in love with Sarathi's sister, the youngster does a neat job. Nasser in such a miniscule role? — really sad. The mother of the heroine, clinging to her youth, reeks of artificiality.
Dance masters Lawrence and Rajasekar have used some appreciable dance movements in the song sequences. The scene in which the hero falls from the terrace of the college has been well captured. Ramesh Krishna is the cinematographer.
Karthik Raja's re-recording enhances the effect of many scenes, including the fight sequences.
It is a pity that a composer with such potential remains under utilised. Yuvan Shankar Raja's songs, however, don't stir you much.
Unlike many films today, writer-director Jagan's "Pudhiya Geethai" is purposeful.
MALATHI RANGARAJAN

ILAYATHALAPATHY or SUPERSTAR ¨C Which one does Vijay prefer?
SUPERSTAR - This title in Tamil is the most coveted and most aspired for by actors in the film industry. The title adorns the one and only Rajinikanth now but there are various discussions and speculations as to which hero would qualify for this much popular title in the present generation of actors.
In a recent award function when Ilayathalapathy Vijay was posed a question as to which title he would prefer- the ILAYATHALAPATHY or the SUPERSTAR, the Nanban hero stated, ¡°I am quite happy with Ilayathalapathy. It is the greatest reward when I am called the next superstar. However, I have come into the industry to carve a niche for myself in acting and I am not vying for titles¡±. He also added that there are more artists who have done greater work than him.
The ever humble Vijay is currently busy working in A R Murugadoss¡¯s Kaththi. http://behindwoods.com/tamil-movies-...halapathy.html
I liked his reply to the supestar question.
No one in tamilnadu can ever deny that Vijay has carved a niche for himself in the industry and will end up as one of the most important entertainers, the industry has ever seen.
Hence, he need not eye any former legend's legacy/title/name.
He is creating his own legacy and good to hear from him that he is focusing on 'his' rather than anyone else.
Vijay speaks about Next Superstar title :
Actor Vijay won the Favourite Actor award for his performance in the Director Vijay’s ‘Thalaiva’ given by a popular private channel recently. The actor attended the award held in Chennai yesterday. Director A.R.Murugadoss who is currently working with Vijay for the film ‘Kaththi’ handed over the award to his ‘Thuppakki’ hero.
Speaking at the function Vijay said he did not accept to attend the event just because an award is being give for him. He said he came only because the film ‘Thalaiva’ is being honored in the form of the award given to him. He added that ‘Thalaiva’ is the film that is very close to his heart and it should have done well. It’s the people who should decide whether a film is good or not but circumstances decided the fate of ‘Thalaiva’
The actor also spoke about the ‘next superstar’ that has dragged him to a unnecessary controversy recently. Vijay said he is content with the ‘Ilayathalabathi’ title given by his fans.
To a question on which director he would prefer to work again if given a chance, Vijay said it would be Shankar who directed him in ‘Nanban’ the Tamil remake of Bollywood film ‘3 Idiots’. Vijay also said Kamal Haasan starrer ‘Indian’ is his most favourite Shankar directed film.

WHO HAS FAN BASE NOT RESTRICTED WITH PARTICULAR AGE?
WHO HAS ALWAYS CREATED AN EXCELLENT PRE-RELEASE BUSINESS AFTER RAJNI?
WHO HAS SCARED POWERFUL POLITICAL HOUSE OF TN ?
Its Vijay- whether you admit it or not, its gonna stay as a TRUTH!
You can take it as a bitter truth if you dont feel comfortable.

Ilaiyathalapathy Vijay's speech at the recent Vijay awards function is one of his best speeches in his career. Vijay said he came to Vijay awards because the organizers told him that he is getting the favorite hero award for Thalaivaa. The Kaththi actor said " People should decide the success and failure of a film not the circumstances". Vijay has expressed his happiness by saying "I would not been this much happier if I get this award for a successful film. You have given this award for a film which should have been a successful venture. Not only me, the entire Thalaivaa unit will feel happy for this award"
When Divyadarshini of Vijay TV asked, which title Vijay would prefer? Ilaiyathapathy or next superstar? Vijay replied her by saying that he will never forget the past and when Gopinath asked him to elaborate, Vijay said that the title Ilaiyathapathy was first given by people and he prefers it.
Vijay has also explained that he never wanted to be a superstar and when he entered the film industry, all he had in his mind is to get a unique place for him. Vijay says that Kumudham's next superstar results is a huge recognition for him but he said " I know that this recognition is not permanent by pointing out there are many talented and smart actors are out there".
Vijay turned philosophical by saying that "People who posses positive thinking could win at anything, people who are trying to come up in life will get some opportunities. Those who are seeing the opportunity despite all the hurdles will be the winners, while those who are seeing only the hurdles will end up as losers".
Vijay added "People who are achieving their goal in their respective fields are superstars, the thing is while kicking the ball only the ball should enter between the goal post, not the person who is kicking it".
Vijay concluded by saying that " Success and failures will come and go, but our efforts should be permanent. Vijay has also expressed in getting the award from AR Murugadoss.

Vijay 58 will be a path-breaking film :
Cameraman Natraj Subramaniam is on a 10-day trip with Chimbudevan hunting locations for Vijay 58 and has opened up about the film to a daily. “I and Chimbudevan are headed to several states like Kerala, interior TN, even up North to Punjab and Himachal Pradesh. The idea is to look for locations that have not been seen on screen before. Apart from some ethereal locations in North India, the film will also be shot in TN and Pollachi. This is a fantasy-based script and it will be a path-breaking film. So, it demands the use of such locations like lakes, mountains and greenery that have never been captured before on camera.”
Breathtaking locations include Champa Valley, Dalhousie and other important locations up North will be explored for this fantasy flick. The team is conscious about minimal use of CG and looking forward to shoot in real locations. This yet-to-be-titled flick has Hansika and Shruti Haasan in lead roles. Kichcha Sudeep of Naan Ee fame and yesteryear heartthrob Sridevi play pivotal roles in the film. Devi Sri Prasad composes music. It is expected to go on floors towards the end of August.

K.S. Ravi Kumar on his Official FB page :
currently faced with quite a concern since few days. Of in numerous fake profiles in social media, one in particular has been posing as me and tweeting & making statements that has caused quite a flutter.
I don’t know why I’ve been imitated. Sure, I have a reasonably successful account here on Facebook.
I'm well known and respected in the industry and I’ve even been many a times honored by being asked to give an opinion on various issues and situations. But I’m certainly not the one who can decide on the next superstar.
In fact I am no one to choose or decide who is the next super star other than fans who follow their respective idols.
Who am I to judge Vijay or Ajith. I have always enjoyed and appreciated their work but I cannot comment anything especially about who the next Super Star is. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?sto...11940072253933

''Who am I to judge Vijay or Ajith?''

Hotshot director K.S.Ravikumar has been a leading face in the industry for over 2 decades and he is still in vogue as a leading director for big star flicks. Currently, KSR is helming Rajini's Lingaa and recently his work for Kochadaiiyaan was also much appreciated.
There has been a recent furore over a fake Twitter account in Ravikumar's name and a few tweets from that account about who the next superstar is. Ravikumar has sent out a detailed clarification through his official Facebook account a few minutes back. This is how it reads.

விஜய் படத்தின் வித்தியாச விஷூவல் ட்ரீட்!
'கத்தி' படத்திற்குப் பிறகு சிம்புதேவன் இயக்கத்தில் விஜய் நடிக்கிறார். ஸ்ருதிஹாசன், ஹன்சிகா, ஸ்ரீதேவி, சுதீப் ஆகியோர் இப்படத்தில் நடிக்கின்றனர். அநேகமாக அடுத்த மாதம் ஷூட்டிங் தொடங்கப்படலாம்.
படத்தின் லொக்கேஷன்களை தேர்வு செய்வதில் இயக்குநர் சிம்புதேவனும், ஒளிப்பதிவாளர் நட்ராஜூம் கவனம் செலுத்தி வருகின்றனர்.
இதுவரை இல்லாத அளவுக்கு வித்தியாசமாக விஷூவலில் புதுமை காட்ட வேண்டும் என்பதில் உறுதியாக இருக்கிறார் இயக்குநர் சிம்புதேவன்.
அதனால், இமாச்சல பிரதேசம், மத்திய பிரதேசம் உள்ளிட்ட தென்னிந்தியாவின் முக்கியப் பகுதிகளில் ஷூட்டிங் நடத்தத் திட்டமிட்டுள்ளார்.
பாலிவுட் படங்களின் ஷூட்டிங் ஸ்பாட்டைப் போல , விஜய் படத்தின் ஷூட்டிங் ஸ்பாட் இருக்க வேண்டும் என்பதால் விதவிதமான லொக்கேஷன்களில் ஷூட்டிங் எடுக்க முடிவெடுத்துள்ளார்.
இதனால், இரட்டை வேடங்களில் நடிக்கும் விஜய் இன்னும் ஸ்மார்ட்டாகத் தெரிவார் என்று சொல்லப்படுகிறது.
Nutty was the first choice for Jilla too. But opted out because of schedule conflicts and Ganesh Rajavelu stepped in.

Vijay is surprising us with an interesting choice of script, genre and director for V58.
Honestly, don't quite know what to expect from this venture.
But Vijay, Sudeep, Sridevi, Hansika, Sruthi.......the casting looks impressive. Is Prabhu Ganesan also part of the casting?
This is movie is also double act? Or is it just a rumor?
Rumour as of now. But given the genre, a short flashback portion is a possibility.
If I am not wrong Nutty did camera work for Vennialavae song in Thuppaki as SS dint have time.
That's right Vinod. Nutty also has worked in a few bollywood movies.
Okay. And I agree Cedy, this project came out of nowhere. I wouldn't have thought Vijay would choose a movie like this. If I understand correctly it is not a period film right? Rather a fantasy based story? This is definitely above Kaththi right now for me on the hype meter.
Yes. He did. He was also the cinematographer of YOUTH.
