Nayantara to marry in December?

There have been rumours linking between popular South Indian actress Nayantara and choreographer-actor-director Prabhu Deva in the past, which the actress denied on several occasions! Going by the latest developments, it appears that these rumours were not unfounded true and the latest buzz in Chennai is that the couple may tie the knot in December.

"Nayan has given up her career as her priority is to marry Prabhu Deva. They are made for each other and are just waiting to legalise their relationship the moment Prabhu's divorce from his wife comes through," a source close to Nayantara was quoted as saying.

Reportedly Prabhu's family has accepted Nayantara and she is the darling of the household. Recently, the couple is said to have exchanged garlands during a big homam performed by Prabhu's dad Sundaram Master.

"Last Tuesday, they were spotted at a Vadapalani theatre holding hands and watching Karthi's Naan Mahaan Alla," a source added. Prabhu Deva also took her to Paris during the shoot of Jayam Ravi's Ich, which he's directing.

Nayantara is currently focusing on completing all her pending projects in Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada such as Arya's Boss Engira Baskaran, Electra in Malayalam and Symbol with Upendra in Kannada.

Trisha angry over drug scandal rumour

South Indian actress Trisha Krishnan, who made her Bollywood debut with Akshay Kumar-starrer Khatta Meetha, is angry after her name was dragged in a drug scandal and thinks it's an attempt to tarnish her image.
A report on a Telugu channel claimed that Trisha's name featured in the list of clients of a Nigerian drug dealer. All because she has a very close friend of African origin -- dress designer Sidney Sladen.

But Trisha is not willing to take it lying down.

"It's very strange. I was shooting in Kodaikanal when this Telugu news channel put this news out. And they put a still of me and this very dear friend of mine who's Afro-American. They assumed that this fashion-designer friend of mine was some drug peddler from Nigera," a fuming Trisha said from Chennai.

"I was angry. This is not just a harmless rumour. The first thing I did was to get my lawyer to issue statements to all the TV channels. I've taken legal action against the channel which put this out. There is not an element of truth in it. It's strange where this story came from. I haven't been to Hyderabad for a year now. I was told this peddler knows my number. But come on, everyone knows my number," the pretty actress said.

Trisha thinks this an attempt to malign her name in the Telugu film industry.

"The only problem is you can't pinpoint such a thing to any one source. But yes, it seems to have been done to tarnish my image. Luckily I've got a lot of support in Hyderabad even from the authorities," she said.

Arya’s answer to allegation

It seems Arya prefers silence than coming out with a counter allegation on a complaint against him by the producers of his forthcoming film ‘Chikku Bhukku’ that he was not extending co-operation to dub for the movie.

“I don’t want to make any comments about the complaint. But I will speak at an appropriate time,” the actor says and adds: “I don’t see any difference between my movies and giving same cooperation to all my producers and directors.”

In their complaint with the Tamil Film Producers Council, ‘Chikku Bhukku’ producers Media One Global Entertainment have alleged that Arya did not turn up for the dubbing on several occasions despite repeated requests.

“As a result, we have incurred heavy loss for booking the studios. Also, the actor is not showing interest in the film’s promotion and is keener on releasing his other film, ‘Boss Engira Baskaran’,” they added.

Hansika’s expensive gift!

Her birthday this year will stay in the memory of Hansika Motwani forever, as she received a surprise gift from her mother. This has made the ‘Velayudham’ and ‘Maappillai’ actress feel so special.

“I was not ready to believe my eyes when mom gave me the keys of a brand new apartment on the midnight of my birthday. Wow, it was truly such a wonderful and great gift,” the actress says, unable to control her excitement.

Saying that she immediately went to the apartment to have a look of it, Hansika adds: “The house was so beautiful. We did a pooja and celebrated my birthday and house warming ceremony with some close buddies.”

Happy about entering Kollywood this year, she says, “The three projects in which I am currently acting (‘Maappillai’, ‘Velayudham’ and ‘Ich’) would be a perfect launch pad for me. I am aware that Tamil Nadu would always encourage talent.”

Endhiran rights not sold

The makers of superstar Rajinikanth's Shankar directed fantasy flick Robot (Enthiran in Tamil) have denied the claim of Telugu producer Chadalavada Srinivasa Rao (of Sri Tirumala Tirupathi Venkateshwara Films) that he purchased the Telugu dubbing rights of Robot for a whopping Rs. 30 crores.

SUN Pictures officials have confirmed that they had not sold the Telugu rights to anyone so far. Meanwhile, it is heard that Chadalavada Srinivasa Rao has paid only a token amount and the actual settlement is expected to happen in a few days.

If other reports are to be believed, Endhiran, which was expected to grace screens on September 3, has been postponed to September 24 because of the last minute patchwork. The film will release in 2000 screens worldwide.

Rajini’s Endhiran postponed!

South Indian superstar Rajinikanth's much-awaited fantasy flick Endhiran (Robot), being directed by Shankar with Aishwarya Rai as the heroine, was expected to grace screens on September 3. But according to latest reports, the film has been postponed to September 24 because of last minute patchworks.

Endhiran has 1500 graphical shots – a record in Indian cinema. If a movie has heavy graphics works like this, obviously it would be delayed," a source commented. There are reports that the film will release in 2000 screens worldwide, the highest ever for a Tamil film. With a budget of Rs. 200 crores, Endhiran is also the costliest Tamil film ever made.

After the release of Endhiran, Rajinikanth may take a break and then commence the works of his daughter Soundarya's animation film Sultan - The Warrior, which has been in the making for the last couple of years.

DHANUSH TAKES UP RAJINI’S SENTIMENT

Dhanush’s Uthama Puthiran, the remake of the Telugu flick Ready, will have a sentiment song similar to the one in Mannan, where Rajinikanth would shower his love on this mother through the song Amma Enrazhaikadha. The song in Uthama Puthiran will, however, be different as it deals with the father sentiment this time.

This song has been penned by Vairamuthu and KJ Yesudas has rendered his golden voice for it.

Uthama Puthiran is directed by Mithran Jawahar and sharing the screen space with Dhanush in this film is Genelia. Bhagyaraj, Vivek, Karunas and Aashish Vidhyarthi are also included in the star cast.

Prabhu Deva next moving to Trisha

Though director Prabhu Deva is currently busy directing Ich with Jeyam Ravi playing the lead, he has reportedly started the groundwork for his next film. Sources reveal that the director has signed up Vishal for this project. Playing Vishal’s on-screen pair will be Trisha, we hear.

Suriya is an acrobat in ‘7am Arivu’

While AR Murugadoss is still denying the rumours saying his film with Suriya ‘7am Arivu’ is based on the recently released Christopher Nolan’s Inception we learn the film is no where connected with the Hollywood film. Even Shruthi Kamal who plays the heroine opposite Suriya had screamed Murugadoss’ film is an original film.

suriya ‘7am Arivu’

Sources say ‘7am Arivu’ is based on a circus artiste and the role Suriya plays a trapeze artiste who also doubles up as an animal trainer. The ‘7am Arivu’ unit is currently shooting at Great Bombay Circus in Coimbatore. It will later go to China to can some scintillating acrobatic scenes with the help of experts there. The range of characters Suriya is opting for in recent times is amazing to say least.

In Tamil there weren’t many films that has circus as a part of main story. Except for MGR’s ‘Parakkum Paavai’ and Kamal’s ‘Apoorva Sahodarargal’ and ‘Mumbai Express’ we don’t have any memorable film dealing with the lives of people in circus.

Jayam Ravi busy schedule

Besides ‘Ich’ and ‘Aadhi Bhagavan’ in which he is currently busy with, ‘Jayam’ Ravi has signed one more project. Titled ‘Boologam’, the film will be directed by Kalyana Krishnan, a former associate of S P Jananathan.

jayam ravi

Kalyana Krishnan, who penned screenplay for ‘Iyarkai’, ‘Ee’ and ‘Peranmai’, all directed by Jananathan, will take of story, screenplay and direction departments of ‘Boologam’, which will be produced by Aascar Films.

Since the movie is about a boxer, ‘Jayam’ Ravi will appear in a special look designed after much research. The actor is making rigorous workouts in gym to fit him to the role, say sources in the know.

“I have made intense research about Tamil Nadu and international boxing for the past five years. ‘Boologam’ will not be a usual film. ‘Jayam’ Ravi has agreed to increase his weight and tone up his body to look like a boxer,” the director says.
