Trisha bags another Telugu film

 

Trisha has stepped in as Telugu superstar NTR's heroine in Boyapatti Seenu's Dammu. She is a replacement for Shruti Haasan, who had walked out of the film after signing it.

Then the producers wanted Kajal Agarwal, but there was issue over salary and it did not happen. Anyway all is well that ends well. Dammu is a typical NTR mass masala and has two heroines, Trisha and Ko Karthika.

Both the heroines have equal footage, though Trisha will have an advantage as she is the more popular of the two in Andhra. Trisha in her second innings is doing better with her Mankatha turning out to be a super hit. In Tamil she is doing Samaran with Vishal.

Lawrence is now planning to make a sequel to Kanchana. Says a beaming Lawrence: "It is the best birthday gift I have ever received with the film celebrating 100 days in many centres and declared as a super hit."

Billa 2 Movie Online – Preview

 

Ajith's forthcoming offering, 'Billa 2′, is a prequel to his 2007 blockbuster hit, 'Billa'. This film by Chakri Toleti showcases how a commoner who is an Eelam refugee, David (read Ajith), from the coastal regions of Tamil Nadu goes on to become Billa, one of the most feared underworld dons.

Ajith plays the titular role in the film with Parvathy and Bruna Abdullah playing his lead ladies and Sudhanshu Pandey in a pivotal role. Earlier, Huma Qureshi was supposed to play the main female lead; however she was replaced by Parvathy after the first schedule of the film, as the script underwent changes, which was after the makers watched Ajith's 50th offering, 'Mankatha'.

It may be mentioned that Ajith's 'Billa' that released in 2007 and was directed by Vishnuvardhan, fetched him more fans than ever and the movie was one sleek package with Nayanthara and Namitha on board and racy scenes.

An interesting aspect is that the director of this film, Chakri Toleti, will use an EPIC camera for filming. 'Billa 2′ is now the first ever Indian film to be shot using an EPIC camera. It was the same breed of EPIC Camera that was used by James Cameron to film 'Avatar'.

Audiences will also get to see a younger Ajith in this film as the script demands for it. The tunes for the film have been composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja who composed the songs of 'Mankatha' as well. Cinematography is by RD Rajashekar.

The film's logo that was recently unveiled has become quite a rage among thala fans, especially in social networking sites.

With thala Ajith playing the lead along with two hotties for the female leads, Yuvan's music and Chakri's direction, 'Billa 2′ that will release in April 2012 is definitely going to be one of the most expected films next year.

Cast: Ajith Kumar, Parvathy Omanakuttan
Direction: Chakri Toleti
Production: L. Suresh
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja

7aum Arivu-Sixth Sense is Scarce

 

Cast : Surya, Shruthi Hasaan,Johnny Tri Nguyen

Music : Harris Jeyaraj

Cinematography : Ravi K Chandran

Direction : A.R.Murugadoss

Production : Red Giant Movies

Review : Sai Shyam G(The 70 mm Team)

The most expected film of the year has hit the screens this Diwali and expectations for 7aum Arivu were sky high as it has the successful trio,Suriya-A.R.Murugadoss-Harris who gave us the smash hit Ghajini before. The movie has the star power, foot tapping songs, exaggerated fight sequences and evenseventh sense (hypnotism) but fails to click as a wholesome entertainer. It is the perfect example of a movie which starts off with a bang but eventually loses the plot.

Story

A prelude to the film shows us about Bodhidharman (Suriya), a Pallava prince who travels to China in the 6th Century to enlighten the people there about curing rare diseases and he has also taught them the nuances of martial arts and hypnotism. Bodhidharman even sacrifices his life as per the wish of the Chinese people.

The central plot begins in the present day where Shuba (Shruti Haasan), a genetic engineering student tries to prove a path breaking research which can bring back Bodhidharman. Aravind (Suriya) is a circus artist and he has his DNA almost matching with that of Bodhidharman's. This fact makes Shuba to befriend Aravind but he later feels that she has cheated him in the name of love. Meanwhile, Chinese Government sends Dong Lee (Johnny Tri Nguyen) to start a bio war 'Operation Red' on India. The tiresome climax tells us whether Bodhidharman came back to life or not.

Performances

Suriya as Bodhidhrman is stupendous in his role. Look out for the 'Tejas' on his face and first 20 minutes of the film completely belongs to Suriya. Suriya as the circus artist Aravind is street smart in his role but the character has very little scope to perform except for the climax fight sequence.

Shruti Haasan needs to take some acting lessons for sure. Her expressions are so weak and unconvincing. Johnny Tri Nguyen with a well-built physique performs in his character effortlessly and gives a tough fight to Suriya.

Technicalities

Harris Jayaraj's songs are hummable but where do they fit into the movie? Except 'Oh Ringa Ringa' and 'Innum Enna Thozha', all other songs pop up at irksome places. The background score is pretty ordinary too. Cinematographer Ravi K. Chandran has done a neat job but Anthony's editing is not crisp and to-the-point. There are plenty of loose ends which bring down the pace of the movie.

Yes, there are few scenes which have powerful dialogues which would make you have goose bumps, especially if you are a Tamilian. But, that does not assure you that it will turn out to be a good movie. There are plenty of uninteresting scenes and if at all the movie gains some pace, a song would pop up and annoy you. Also, the hypnotism concept is too much exaggerated which might leave you wondering whether it's a fantasy film. Suriya tries his best to upheld the deteriorating screenplay but it goes in vain. A.R.Murugadoss has tried to throw some light on one of the unsung heroes of our nation. Hats off to him for that but thumbs down for his mediocre screenplay!

Wow Factors

• The first 20 minutes of the film where Suriya performs out of his skin as Bodhidharman

• Johnny Tri Nguyen's effortless acting

Oops Factors

• Weak and tedious screenplay

• Shruti Haasan's expression

• Songs at inappropriate places

• Poor CG works

Bottomline

7aum Arivu steeply falls short of expectations and it needed a little more of the sixth sense rather than the seventh sense for it to work.
