Ajith to play a eunuch in Godfather

Ajith seems to have a penchant for doing double and triple roles and most of them have proved successful too. The latest is Godfather directed by K.S.Ravikumar where Ajith appears in a triple role. Ajith plays the role of a father and his two sons. The father is a famous dance choreographer and one of the sons play the role of a eunuch. Not many people get to play this kind of role. The versatile actress Manorama had to wait for almost 30 years to play this role.
The heroine to pair opposite the eunuch is yet to be finalized. Asin will play the lead opposite the other Ajith. Godfather will be released along with other big bulls on Tamil New Years Day.

VERY GOOD NEWS !!!!!!

"I'm back in Tamil"- AR Rehman
- 04.02.2005




Even rockets have to return to their base-station someday. AR Rehman is the rocket and Tamil cinema is the base-station.


After a busy schedule in New York and London, Rehman has finally found time for Tamil cinema again. "My previous film was 'Warriors of Heaven and Earth'. This is a Chinese film. I had to fly between Chennai and London to complete the film's re-recording. Chinese people like Mohana raaga. I had composed most of the tunes based on this raga and on Sindhu Bhairavi. They loved the tunes," he said.


Why were you avoiding Tamil films?


I'm dedicating this year to Tamil films. SJ Surya's 'Best Friend', KS Ravikumar's 'Godfather' and Kalaipuli Dhanu's film with a new director are some of the projects for the year. I'm planning to concentrate more on Tamil films right now.


Why do you make only three films in a year?



Tamil films are made on small budgets. So nobody gives sufficient time for music. I need at least three months to complete a film. If the film is unable to reach the audience, the music fails too. This has happened to me many times before.


AR Rehman was the one who had introduced singers like Udit Narayan and Sadhana Sargam to Tamil film industry. They are notorious for their bad pronunciation. How is Rehman going to justify it?


"Udit has a nice voice. Pronunciation is not important for music. If they are singing in unfamiliar languages, they should learn it first. I have told that to them before."


Rehman had composed music for UN's fight against Leprosy. The UN General Secretary Kofi Annan himself had narrated the concept to Rehman. Does he have any plans to help the tsunami victims too?


I was told that the affected people have received enough financial aid. I'm planning to do something to encourage them. I will surely participate in something like that.

Asin stars in Ajith's new film
By MIO Team

Asin is one of the heroines of Ajith's new film 'Godfather'.

For a long time, Asin was branded as an unlucky heroine in Tamil in spite of her fabulous career in Telugu. Things changed after the success of 'M Kumaran s/o Mahalakshmi', which was a comeback vehicle for Nadia Moidu. Soon, Asin was signed up for many films but most of them were dropped even before they were launched. One such film was Goutham Menon's 'Chennaiyil Oru Mazhaikaalam'.

Now, Asin is busy acting with Ajith in his new film 'Godfather', directed by KS Ravikumar. This is his second film with Ravikumar after the successful 'Villain'. The film stars Ajith in triple roles- father, son and a transsexual. :shock:

The film is going to be released on Vishu.

Now why my posting is gone? I didn't use any abusive language....

Mr Judge did you use the term thundubhai, your favorite one to belittle ARR? :D

The new DF procedure does a good job of separating the grain from the chaff, IMO.

"If the film is unable to reach the audience, the music fails too. This has happened to me many times before."

Why choose such films then, ARR? Excuses, excuses, excuses.

I don't think I used that term in this thread....... I think I used "he" in my posting.. May be that is the reason it is deleted!

Well, we are not allowing provocation too.

NOV,

The whole DF has become boring without IR-ARR fight :-( literally no activity at all comparing the old-DF. I tried once in 'trend set by ARR thread' but it was of no help :-(

This is my second attempt
http://forumhub.lunarpages.com/hub/viewtopic.php?t=1709

hope sanity comes back to DF through our fights :-)

:rotfl:

best of luck in your pursuit rajasaranam.
I doubt if any ARR fans would be visiting IR Forum. :D

rajasaranam,what NOV said is true,we hardly logged in ur IR forum becoz we r busy in out own ARR thread,i recomend u to do the same...plz...dun come & start the VS all...its childish,go do something much benificial for u & IR...babye!!!

I can understand RS' disappointment! On the otherhand, ARR fans posting frequency and volume too has come down in new forum. Now for neutral music lovers, who want to be kept abreast of events and informed by well read music fans of ARR brand of music are disappointed by the reduced activity in ARR threads in the new forum. Dinesh and his team would do well to throttle up a bit.

"Now for neutral music lovers, who want to be kept abreast of events and informed by well read music fans of ARR brand of music are disappointed by the reduced activity in ARR threads in the new forum"

Recently observer-is-back has started such a thread.

ARR said in a recent interview he is done for awhile as far as international projects goes and is gonna focus on Tamil movies.This is GOOD & BAD IMO.

Good:
finally we get alot of ARR tunes in tamil which is great for me i thoroughly enjoy his music which is apart from everyone else.He has chosen some good movies to comeback to tfm with, and im sure these will be hits.

Bad:
most likely public wont like it becuz there seems to be hatred towards him or something great albums like Kadhal Virus go unnoticed but New which was mediocre to ARR's standards overall was a super hit.AE was awesome but i dont kno the public reception to that in india i think it was a hit but not as great as it could have been.I think its ARR's choice of movies, in tfm if the movie flops the songs will flop too.

Godfather Audio is releasing on 06.03.2005

(All other Audio like Chandramukhi, Anniyan, Sachin etc,too)

where u got the news man????

Personally i wud be disappointed if ARR comes back to TFM........i wud like ARR to make inway into international market....by 2025, i think India will be an super power in terms of economics and by that time Indian music,culture,sports shuld also rule this world.......for that ARR has to make a start so that next generations will continue his good work......

too ambitiuos isn't it??but as Mr.Kalam says DREAM BIG.....

-deleted-

baba88...where did u got the news on godfather audio release date???

any news on the audio release date???

Here: http://tamil.galatta.com/entertainme...?n=chand07.txt

Here is the Audio Release Date of Chandramukhi, but I think Godfather and all other Audio CD's will release in the same week as Chandramukhi Audio.

A.R.Rahman has completed 2 Songs for Godfather. The remaining songs will be composed and recorded shortly.

yea....2 songs finished in Godfather,4 songs done in BF (out of 6)

but when is Godfather audio is releasing???

Almost certainly Godfather will now not compete with the other movies like Anniyan etc. To have just finished two songs so far is not good news.

Sify has a news article which says Ajit has taken the flop of 'Ji'to heart&is blaming the producer Chakravarthy of 'Nic arts'for the bad show.The result is that the shooting of 'God father'has been stalled.Ravikumar is trying for a patchup while Chakravarthy is trying to sell the film.Asin(the heroine)is livid that her dates are getting wasted&is threatning to walk out.Ravikumar has promised the distributors that shooting will start from March 7th&will be completed in a single schedule.But it looks loke Ajit's bad time just refuses to go away.

yo guys..it seems anniyan too is out of the list...so im sure it will be Anniyan Vs Godfather..... lets wait & see!!

So, when will Godfather (audio) release ?
Has the Shooting started ?
I don't understand what's going on.
Normally all audios will release on 5 - 6.th March.
A.R.Rahman has just completed 2 songs. So he has only 5 days time to complete the remeaining songs ???
Will Godfather be dropped like Jaggubhai ?
Another K.S.Ravikumar film with A.R.Rahman.
What is K.S.Ravikumar doing ?
Please help me.

Ajith as 'Father- Villian and Hero'
- 04.03.2005
Ajith's film 'God father' is entering into the arena along with Kamal and Rajini's films. One could not catch Shark using ordinary gadget used for catching small fishes? So Ajith had acted in 3 getups in the film 'God father'.

"The audience should laugh in half of the film and also get afraid a bit, and clap their hands in appreciation, while seeing a film. Apart from these reactions, they would come forward to the edge their seats by seeing this film", claims the director of the film, K.S.Ravi kumar.



"Ajith has superb character in this film. He had acted in all three characters without losing his balance in any way and in a very matured manner. In his previous film 'Villain' which had run for 100 days silently. Ajith had acted in two roles. In this film 'God father', he is acting in 3 characters. So a double century run is definite", asserts the team of 'God father' with pride.




If there are 3 getups in a film, the makeup will have major role to play. But Ajith had acted in all three characters without giving too much important to the makeup, but yet had done a very good job of it.



In the film 'God father' there are 5 enchanting songs. A very important aspect in this film is fight sequences.



"Among those who fights by flying all around, and hold on to 'Thirupachi', 'God father' is a person who destroys the enemies without flying. He also does not need any 'Aruval'. Because he himself is an 'Atom Bomb'!"



We do get goosepimps, when the director said this to us!



There are few more scenes have to be added in this film. But the Director K.S.Ravikumar and Ajith do not want to rush and finish the film just for the sake of it. So, this films release date may even get postponed
