No more Tamil films for Tammannah

Cinemimi [Friday, December 31, 2010]
Tammannah is awaiting the release of Siruthai, in which she is paired opposite Karthi, and now has the Dhanush-starrer Vengai. The actress, sources say, has not accepted any other offer in Kollywood. When enquiries were made, it was said that Tammannah has some prestigious offers from the Telugu film industry which she could not refuse. As a result, Tammannah is declining opportunities here.

Sources say that the actress has a busy schedule till December 2011 and if at all she accepts any other projects in Tamil it would be for 2012.

Priyamani’s mistake

Cinemimi [Friday, December 31, 2010]
Priyamani is known for making bold statements and this time she has stunned many by openly declaring that it was a mistake to have signed up Raktha Charithra. The actress was apparently expecting the trilingual to set the box office on fire, but it failed to evoke any response in Tamil while it received a lukewarm response in Hindi and Telugu.

The national award winner is upset by this and has said that she accepted that offer to star in RC hoping that it would raise her star status. Since this did not happen, Priyamani is deeply regretting her decision to have starred in the film.

Dhanush is 'Karuppu'

Cinemimi [Friday, December 31, 2010]
The name of the character Dhanush plays in his Pongal release 'Aadukalam' is Karuppu, say reliable sources in the unit. "It is a lively and rare role for any actor and Dhanush has performed it with elan," they say.

"He initially found it tough to master the Madurai slang for Aadukalam. However, he practiced hard and finally came out with a very good performance," maintain sources.

Elaborating more on Karuppu, they say, "He is one person who is so outspoken. This trait of him makes him land in troubles. How he overcomes everything is the crux of the story."

Songs from 'Aadukalam', set to tune by G V Prakash Kumar, have already become hits. Directed by Vettrimaran of 'Polladhavan' fame, the film distributed by Sun Pictures is expected to be a sure shot this harvest festival.

Karthi, Vijay and Dhanush to battle

Cinemimi [Friday, December 31, 2010]
Ilaignan, Kaavalan, Siruthai and Aadukalam have now been confirmed for Pongal releases. Earlier, there was a speck of doubt about Siruthai making it for Pongal but the latest from the camp is that the film is ready and raring to hit the screens.

So, it’s Karthi, Vijay and Dhanush competing this time and the movie buffs are waiting to know the final outcome. The countdown has begun and the D-day is not far off!

Kaavalan has its own set of problems especially in finding theatres while Siruthai and Aadukalam are having a smooth sail. Ilaignan on the other hand is backed by the TN CM as it is based on a novel penned by him.

Ajith's high spirited dance

Cinemimi[Friday, December 31, 2010]
The shooting of ‘Mankatha’ is proceeding at rapid pace across the locales of Chennai. So far, there have been certain assumptions that the film is a serious crime-drama with less prominence for ‘fun’ traits (common in all Venkat Prabhu films). If so, here’s something that will send your guesses disapproved. Yup! A fun-filled song featuring Ajith Kumar, Premji Amaran and Vaibhav is filmed at Chennai’s famous Binny Mills.

According to the closer sources, it’s a high-spirited peppy number with the distinctive touch of Yuvan Shankar Raja. Venkat Prabhu’s most favorite Shobi is choreographing the song.

Venkat Prabhu has already completed shooting for couple of tracks including title song in Bangkok. Without a doubt, it is ensuring that the filmmaker is going at right momentum so as to complete the project at scheduled time.

Anushka in love with Krish?

Cinemimi [Friday, December 31, 2010]
A lot is being buzzed after Anushka confessed recently that she is in love and would enter wedlock with the man of her choice in a couple of years. She also said everyone would be in for a surprise when she reveals 'his' name.

If Tollywood sources are to be believed, the man who stole the heart of the 'Stole my heart....' girl is Krish, the director of the multistarrer 'Vaanam', which has Anushka playing an important role.

"The rapport between Anushka and Krish that started during the making of Vaanam's Telugu original ‘Vedam’ slowly developed into love. Krish was the main reason behind the actress agreeing to be part of the Tamil version," sources say.

However, Krish, like any other celebrity in this part of the world, has denied any affair between him and Anushka. "She is close to me and I would call her amma," the filmmaker reportedly said.

We are aware of Vishal Bharadwaj’s adaptation of ‘2 States’ for which Shah Rukh Khan has been signed to play the Punjabi lead. And for the female lead there have been lot of expectations from Bollywood. But it is still not confirmed who will play the ‘Tamil Brahmin girl’ in this flick.

Many names starting from Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra were considered. But now it looks like Asin is also under consideration.

Initially Saif Ali Khan and Priyanka Chopra were chosen for the roles. However, they were later dropped due to some issues. Sources say that Katrina Kaif has fewer chances to bag the role as she wouldn’t fit the role of a Tamilian. While Asin has already proved of her proficiency as a Brahmin girl in Kamal Haasan’s ‘Dasavatharam’, which becomes an added advantage.

Karthi to wed in 2011?

Cinemimi[Thursday, December 30, 2010]
One question that looms large on Karthi is about his wedding. This hot and happening hero of Kollywood had refuted all rumors about his relationship with his co-star Tamannah and said that his family is looking for a suitable match for him.

When questioned about this during a recent interview, the actor once again reiterated that a hunt is on to find him a bride but his parents are yet to zero in on one. However, Karthi added that his marriage will take place soon. Can we expect the star to enter into wedlock in 2011?

Rani Mukherjee Kissed Vidya Balan - a lesi Smooch?

Cinemimi [Thursday, December 30, 2010]
Have you seen a comedy of Vivek with Mayil Swamy... both appearing in TV as Swamikal and quarreling with each other and behind the screen sharing the money!
If you might have seen this then there is no indepth analysis required for the smooch scene of Rani Mukherjee performed along with Vidya Balan!

According to Zoom TV (one of the north indian TV) had a program with an introduction that Rani and Vidya are bitter enemies and have agreed to discuss about their enmity in front of the camera!

Things went well with lots of words spoken between them and here below is the extract!

Rani: So, what about the rumours that we had problems?
Vidya: Well, lovers' tiffs happen. I get upset, you placate me, you get upset, and I placate you. Sometimes flowers work, sometimes chocolates. I think in your case flowers do the magic. Do we really look that we're having a problem? We can prove otherwise.

Rani: Come here ... (they do a lip-lock, almost). Mwaah! Lovely! Only for zoOm.
Vidya: No, only for Rani. Dekhte rahiye ...

Rani (laughing): Vidya, actually I'm getting quite distracted by your red lipstick. What do I do?
Vidya (covering her mouth): Okay, I will talk like this. Ha, ha, ha!

Rani: If you had to do my role in the film, would you do it differently?
Vidya: I would've surely done it differently, but I've said this million times in the past that I don't think anyone could've played this role as believably as you have.

Rani: On this note, another kiss. (Kisses Vidya passionately on the mouth and Vidya responds). Now Vidya's already looking tired, mmnnn ... that says a lot about me.

Rani: Three things about me you don't particularly like and you could never tell me. That should be easy, Vidya.
Vidya: The fact that I'm always the first person who has to say sorry after a fight. I'm the one to call you at night, but you never do. And thirdly, the fact that I can't stop laughing when we're together.

Cinemimi [Thursday, December 30, 2010]
Kollywood witnessed the audio launches of two much awaited films today. One is ‘Siruthai’, the Karthi-Tamannah starrer and the other is ‘Veppam’, a film produced by Gautam Vasudev Menon.

Vidyasagar has composed music for ‘Siruthai’, which is directed by Siva and produced by Studio Green. With the film’s trailer already rocking, its songs have created huge expectations.

Adding to it is the recent speech of Suriya at the trailer launch of the film. “Vidyasagar’s songs are my energizers. I would listen to his music while working hard at gym,” the top actor said.

Directed by Anjana, a former associate of Gautam, ‘Veppam’ marks the reentry of music composer Joshua Sridhar, who made waves with ‘Kadhal’, a production venture of director Shankar.

“The film is set in north Chennai,” sources say. Cinematography is by Om Prakash while lyrics are by Na Muthukumar. Editing is being taken care of by Anthony.

Trisha was one of the three prominent personalities who came together in Chennai on Wednesday to honour the winners of a contest at the Silk Mark Expo, an initiative of Ministry of Textiles, Government of India.

The other two special guests were veteran Bollywood actress Hema Malini and ace Carnatic vocalist Sudha Ragunathan. Interestingly, all the three happen to be the brand ambassadors of a popular textile chain in Tamil Nadu.

The 30 winners participated in an SMS contest that had questions on three varieties of the saris. They were selected through a lucky draw contest and were gifted silk saris, which were designed to give a blend of tradition and modernity.

Remember a couple of weeks ago Shriya Saran walked the ramp at an handloom expo organised by the same Union Textile Ministry.

Cinemimi [Thursday, December 30, 2010]
Prabhu Deva’s wife Ramlath has finally agreed for a divorce by mutual consent. They both have been having a long and bitter battle since Nayanthara entered Prabhu’s life. Ramlath had been fighting to get her husband back to her matrimonial home but now has decided that a divorce by mutual consent is the best option.

The couple has filed a divorce petition on grounds of mutual consent at the family court located in the High Court complex in Chennai today. A divorce by mutual consent means a divorce is in the offing at the earliest.

With their divorce on its way, Prabhu Deva and Nayanthara are likely to announce their wedding

Ready for challenges: Sibiraj

Cinemimi[Thursday, December 30, 2010]
Sibiraj, who is currently busy with ‘Saanthupottu’, a film which according to him is a rustic realistic drama, says he is open to act in any language provided the script and his character are good.

“But my priority will always be Tamil films. Through my experience, I have learnt that an actor should be ready for any kind of roles,” the son of Sathyaraj, who played a negative role in ‘Nanayam’, says.

Hailing his father as a great artiste and a source of inspiration for him, Sibiraj however says he would like to carve a niche for himself. “That’s what my dad too expects from me,” he says.

The ‘Student No 1’ actor, according to sources, has some other projects too on his sleeve. “He is also planning to float his own production house which would give opportunities to fresh talents,” sources add.

Vinay to start ‘Thillu Mullu’

Cinemimi[Wednesday, December 29, 2010]
The latest entrant to the long list of actors who are of late cashing in on the popular of titles of Rajnikanth starrers is Vinay. The actor is gearing up to start a movie titled ‘Thillu Mullu’.

Directed by Madhesh of ‘Madurey’ and ‘Arasangam’ fame, the film is however said to be no remake of the Superstar’s comedy caper of the same title. “The script will be fresh,” sources claim.

Confirming that he is part of the project Vinay, who made his debut with Jeeva’s ‘Unnale Unnale’, says, “But the director has asked me not to reveal anything about the film. He will be in a better position to answer your question.”

The ‘Jayamkondan’ and ‘Modhi Vilayadu’ actor, who is equally popular in Tollywood too, says, “Though I am acting in Telugu and Malayalam movies, I am happy to act in Tamil projects.”

Five New ‘Skyline’ Clips

Cinemimi[Wednesday December 28,2010]

Five new clips have been released from this month’s sci-fi release, ‘Skyline’, which boasts some visually-impressive FX but otherwise looks like a generic alien invasion pic.



Skyline image

In this month’s new release, Skyline, extraterrestrial creatures will attempt to do what about every 8 out of 10 aliens in Hollywood productions try to accomplish -- the invasion and conquest of the planet Earth and its inhabitants.



Five new clips from Skyline are now online and offer an early look at the latest onscreen battle between beings from another planet and the human race -- or, rather, those who live in Los Angeles.







The King's Speech

The King's Speech Coming soon to a Cinema Near You - Check Out Trailer

The second Skyline trailer and recent TV spots play up the film’s visual FX, which look quite dazzling and better than that of many alien invasion films. Brothers Colin and Greg Strause directed Skyline and have worked as FX designers/supervisors on seemingly every other big-budget production to be released over the past decade or so -- clearly they know how to handle the technical challenges of creating realistic but imaginative other-worldly monsters and machinery.



These siblings were only at helm for one other feature film prior to Skyline and that was… Alien vs. Predator: Requiem. That sci-fi spinoff was not exactly well-received by moviegoers, so the Strause brothers have not yet proven themselves capable of crafting a movie with a well-structured plot or more than one-dimensional characters. Could that change with their new project?



Check out the clips from Skyline below and get a feel for what the alien invasion pic has in store for us:



The plot for any flick that revolves around humans having a close encounter of the unfriendly kind tends to be the same (i.e., people attempt to hide from/defeat the aliens). What differentiates one of these genre movies from another is tone -- which can vary from mildly campy (Independence Day) to dead serious (Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds) -- and character development (does that even exist in invasion films?).



While the acting in Skyline so far looks to be pretty hokey, that tends to come with the territory. The movie seems to be quite serious and dramatic in terms of atmosphere, but whether it will take the time to actually give moviegoers a reason to care about the characters struggling to stay alive is the big issue.



We’ll have to wait and see if the film delivers on that front, but the outlook is not very good for the time being.Skyline Pictures

When Arun Vijay was asked about the allegation of his sister Vanitha that he has gone underground, he said," I had been to America to participate in a family function. I also had been there to take part in sky diving competition.

I had booked the tickets two months in advance. I had been to America along with 11 family members. Vanitha has given false complaints and allegations about me at the time when I was not here.

I had come to Chennai 10 days before itself. I had given proper evidence to the police about me being not here and also gave them proof that the allegations made by Vanitha are false.

They are also conducting enquiry about this. I have not hidden myself anywhere. I am busy doing my job. I am also getting ready to take legal action against Vanitha who is making false allegation about me to the media and the police."

Vijay’s Kaavalan gets only 70 theatres

Cinemimi[Wednesday, December 29, 2010]
Kaavalan which has Vijay and Asin in the lead roles is to be released for Pongal. But only 70 theatres are available for the screening of this film and that also, these theatres are ordinary ones.

Kaavalan is a film which has Vijay and Asin in the lead roles and is directed by Siddique. Right from beginning this film has been facing lots of obstacles and problems. Now this film was supposed to be released on 17th of this month.

But since there was dearth in the theatres, this release was postponed to Pongal. But now also this film is not getting theatres. The reason for this is the theatre owners. The Theatre Owners are claiming compensation from Vijay since some of his recent films did not do well at the box office. But Vijay said that he is not responsible and so there is no question of compensation. Now the theatre owners are refusing to screen Vijay’s films.

In between Shakthi Chidambaram intervened in this matter and acquired the rights and has planned to release in 400 theatres in Tamil Nadu. But so far he was able to get only 70 theatres and that also these theatres are ordinary. Because of this Kaavalan is still in trouble at a time when Siruthai and Ilaignyan have got most of the theatres.

Natalie Portman And Benjamin Millepied Are Expecting Their First Baby

Cinemimi[Tuesday December 28, 2010]
Star Wars actress Natalie Portman is up for a bonus. She is not only engaged to her boyfriend but the couple is also expecting their first baby. A representative of Portman confirmed the news on December 27, 2010. And who is her man?

He is Benjamin Millepied, a French choreographer. The 29 years old stunner met her fiance while she was shooting for her latest flick, Black Swan. Portman essays the role of a New York based ballerina in this film. The film traces the journey of this ballerina who is obsessed about perfection at the cost of her body and mind. Born in Bordeaux, France, Benjamin is a choreographer as well as principal dancer at the New York City Ballet. Benjamin is said to have played a major role in helping Portman pick up her ballerina moves.

When asked about the experience of working with Portman, Benjamin answered with a smile that they had got along really well right from the beginning. He also added that Portman is very professional and has no starry tantrums or attitude.

Portman is known for keeping her personal life under wraps. But this time around, she came all out about her relationship with Benjamin. According to reports, the couple started seeing each other in the fall of 2009. New Year's Eve 2009 saw the first public appearance of Nat and Ben.

We guess Santa Claus has been extra generous with Portman, having gifted her a suave beau last Christmas and a baby this year.Natalie Portman Hot Photos
