Shankar ready for the next!
After a blockbuster hit in 'Sivaji', director Shankar is now gearing up for his next venture 'Robot'. Since the director is wielding megaphone for Sharukh Khan for the first time, he is taking extra care in each every aspect of the film.
Sources say that Shankar and his team are currently holding discussions in a farm house near Mahabalipuram to give final touches to the script.
Plans are on to commence the movie this Dusshera. Robot will be produced by Red Chilies Entertainment, a production house of the King Khan himself. The movie with all its techno jazz will be released in Tamil, Telugu and other languages besides Hindi.
Vijay's ATM in the last lap
Vijay's Azhagiya Thamizh Magan is fast nearing completion. Directed by Bharathan, the movie features Shriya opposite Vijay.
Produced by Appachan, the highlight of the film is the musical score by A R Rahman. The movie is about a youth possessed by ESP (Extra Sensory Power).
The latest buzz doing rounds is that the movie would go to Telugu soon.
Popular Tollywood star Mahesh Babu has expressed his desire to the Telugu remake of the movie.
It may be recalled that films starring Mahesh Babu like Okkadu and Pokkiri were remade in Tamil starring Vijay.
Billa for Deepavali
Rumors were abuzz that Ajith starrer ‘Billa’ will not hit the screens for this Deepavali. The news came as a disappointment for millions of Ajith fans across the State.
But quick to put the rumors to rest is director Vishnuvardhan. According to the director, “The film will hit theatres on Deepavali day. It would surely satisfy the fans of both 'Superstar' Rajnikanth and 'Ultimate Star' Ajith kumar”.
Billa is a remake of yesteryear Rajnikanth classic titled the same. It stars Nayanthara, Namitha among others in the cast.
Says Vishnuvardhan, “Billa has been shaping up well. The performance of Ajith will be the highlight of the movie. Understanding that expectations are high since the film is the remake of a 'Superstar' starrer, Ajith has come out with his best”.
Only two more songs need to be filmed, Vishnuvardhan said and added they would be canned in Malaysia.
