BAIRAVAA TRAILER AND AUDIO RELEASE DATE FINALIZED?

The Switzerland song shoot of Bairavaa was wrapped very recently and the team is back home. Photos of Vijay wearing a mask at the Dubai airport on his way back to India was trending virally last Sunday. With only a few minor patchworks left, the Bairavaa team is confident of wrapping the complete shoot before November 10th, says our source.
 

Apparently, we have some interesting news for all Vijay fans. The audio and the trailer of Bairavaa are apparently planned to be unveiled for Christmas (December 25th) 2016. It was guessable that the songs will release in the month of December but Christmas release is something that is new for us. Let’s wait for some official word from the team.
 

Meanwhile, the teaser of Vijay’s Bairavaa is inching towards the 6 million YouTube visits with 5 days from its release.

GAUTAMI CONFIRMS THAT SHE IS SEPARATING FROM KAMAL HAASAN!

GAUTAMI CONFIRMS THAT SHE IS SEPARATING FROM KAMAL HAASAN!

It is known that Gautami Tadimalla has been living with Kamal Haasan for 13 years. Now here comes a shocking news that Gautami has decided to part ways with Kamal. She took to her official blog to share the news. We produce her content below.
 

“November 1, 2016

LIFE AND DECISIONS

It is heartbreaking for me to have to say today that I and Mr. Haasan are no longer together. After almost 13 years together, it has been one of the most devastating decisions that I have ever had to make in my life. It is never easy for anyone in a committed relationship to realise that their paths have irreversibly diverged and that the only choices in front of them are to either compromise with their dreams for life or to accept the truth of their solitude and move ahead. It has taken me a very long time, a couple of years at the very least, to accept this heartbreaking truth and come to this decision.
 

It is not my intention to seek sympathy or assign blame. I have understood through my life that change is inevitable and human nature will define that change for each individual. Not all of these changes might be what we expect or anticipate but that does not, in any way, negate the very real impact of these diverging priorities in a relationship. This decision to set forth on my own at this stage in my life is perhaps one of the most difficult decisions any woman will ever have to make but it is a necessary one for me. For I am a mother first and foremost and I have a responsibility to my child to be the best mother that I can be. And to do that, it is essential that I am at peace within myself.

It is no secret that I have always been a fan of Mr. Haasan’s since before I came to the film industry and I continue to admire and cheer on his monumental talent and achievements. I have stood by him through all his challenges and they have been precious moments for me. I have also learned a great deal from working with him as costume designer on his films and I’m proud that I was able to do justice to his creative vision in those films. Along with all of his accomplishments to date, I know that there is much more to come from him for his audience and I look forward to applauding those successes.
 

I would like to say that I am sharing this monumental happening in my life because I have always lived my life in your midst, with dignity and grace to the best of my ability at all times, and all of you have been a part of my life’s journey in so many ways. I have received so much of love and support from you through the past 29 years and I would like to thank you for the many ways in which you kept me going through the darkest and most painful times in my life.
 

With love and regards,

Gautami”

''WE ARE SCARED ABOUT HOW WE ARE GOING TO CONTROL THE CROWD WHEN VIJAY COMES''

After finishing the song shoot in Switzerland last week, the Bairavaa team is currently camping at Tirunelveli to wrap up the shoot of the film.
 

The final schedule shoot is currently happening at Ram Muthuram Cinemas, Tirunelveli, and when we caught up with A.R.K.Muthuram, the proprietor, this is what he had to say. "We are so happy to be the hosts for the Bairavaa team. They are currently shooting the montage scenes and Vijay sir is expected to reach here in another two days. He will be shooting here for one full day and we are very much excited about that. People have crowded outside the theatre already and we are scared about how we are going to control the crowd when Vijay comes.”
 

We also talked with the captain of the ship, Bharathan, who said, “We are currently shooting in Tirunelveli and are planning to wrap up the entire shoot by 11th or 12th of November.”

VEDALAM COMES BACK TO BEAT REMO

VEDALAM COMES BACK TO BEAT REMO

Last week, we had reported that Sivakarthikeyan's Remo had overtaken Vedalam’s Chennai city box office collection by the end of 3rd weekend run of respective films.
 

3rd Weekend report!
Remo - 6,46,70,294 (Shows - 237)
Vedalam - 6,34,65,383 (Shows - 189)
 

Vedalam’s Chennai city collections were badly hit by Chennai rains last year. But the film did hold on well even after those bad phase that not many films would have done. So it had a decent number of 63 shows by the end of its 4th-weekend run. So by doing so, it has overtaken Remo’s Chennai city box office collection.
 

Here is the 4th-weekend report of Vedalam and Remo
Vedalam - 6.56 crores - Total collections for 4 weeks (63 shows in the 4th week)
Remo - 6.48 crores - Total collections for 4 weeks (15 shows in the 4th week)

SAMANTHA SIGNS HER NEXT TAMIL FILM?

SAMANTHA SIGNS HER NEXT TAMIL FILM?

Last we had reported was that Vijay Sethupathi will be doing a film with director Thiagarajan Kumararaja. Top heroes from Malayalam like Nivin Pauly and Fahadh Faasil are in consideration to play the other hero of the film.
 

Now, coming to the hot news for the day, reports say that Samantha has apparently signed on the dotted lines to play the female lead in this untitled project.
 

Samantha looks to be very choosy about her projects and we are told that this film would offer her enough scope to showcase her acting skills.
 

The pretty Kaththi actress also has Sivakarthikeyan-Ponram project and Vishal’s Irumbu Thirai.

''தப்பாதப்பா விஜயன் வில்லு'' - MASS BAIRAVAA INTRO LYRICS REVEALED!

Veteran lyricist Vairamuthu has shared Bairavaa’s intro song lyrics in his official blog earlier today (4th November). The lines are very massy and are sure to win the hearts of all Vijay fans.

BREAKING: SIVAKARTHIKEYAN TO ACT IN AN ALIEN FANTASY FILM?

BREAKING: SIVAKARTHIKEYAN TO ACT IN AN ALIEN FANTASY FILM?

As reported earlier, Sivakarthikeyan will apparently team up with director R Ravi Kumar for a science fiction entertainer after completing Mohan Raja’s untitled cop film and Ponram’s rural based action entertainer.
 

We have now got an exciting information from a bankable source. It looks like Sivakarthikeyan’s film with Ravi Kumar would be an alien fantasy entertainer. The team had earlier told us that it would be a path-breaking sci-fi film. But we did not think it would be an alien fantasy film. It's a genre that has not been explored much in Tamil cinema. We are waiting for an official confirmation from the team regarding this.
 

Wow, an alien fantasy in Tamil? Sounds invigorating right?

GAUTHAM MENON JUST MADE IT OFFICIAL!

GAUTHAM MENON JUST MADE IT OFFICIAL!

Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada directed by Gautham Menon starring Simbu and Manjima Mohan finally gets an official release date. Though it was speculated earlier that the film is due for release on 11th November, an official confirmation from the team wasn’t made.
 

Gautham Menon has now made an official statement through his Twitter handle, “Saahasam swaasaga saagipo will release worldwide on Nov 11th and along with it, the Tamil version too! Thank you team for the support!”.
 

The Telugu version has been censored with a U/A while the Tamil version is going through the censor process and its certification details will be out very soon.

AFTER I, OK KANMANI AND REMO, NOW COMES THIS!

AFTER I, OK KANMANI AND REMO, NOW COMES THIS!

Vijay Sethupathi’s next untitled film will be directed by Thiagarajan Kumararaja. Our sources close to the team confirm that veteran cinematographer PC Sreeram will take care of the visuals. This sounds like a big catch. PC who is generally selective with his project has been giving us some visual treat in the past 20 odd months with films like I, OK Kanmani, Shamitabh, Remo and now this project.


Likewise, earlier it was said that either Nivin Pauly or Fahadh Faasil will play a pivotal role in the film. According to the latest report, Fahadh Faasil looks to be the selected one. Plus, the interesting scoop here is he will supposedly be playing the baddie in the film.


Apparently, this project is likely to go on floors coming Friday, 4th of November. The team has planned to wrap the film's shoot by the month of January 2017.

OFFICIAL: RAGHAVA LAWRENCE TO REMAKE A SUPERHIT RAJINI FILM

OFFICIAL: RAGHAVA LAWRENCE TO REMAKE A SUPERHIT RAJINI FILM

Raghava Lawrence who is busy with films like Motta Shiva Ketta Shiva and Shivalinga will remake a superhit Rajini film up next.
 

When we spoke with the Kanchana actor, he told us, “Yes, I will be acting in the remake of Rajini sir’s Moondru Mugam and the film will be produced under my banner Sri Raghavendra Productions.  We have not finalized the director yet. Heroine and cast and crew details will be announced shortly.”
 

This is a great announcement. Moondru Mugam was a popular film in the 80’s which had Superstar Rajinikanth in triple roles. This will be a script that will have enough potential to prove Lawrence’s acting skills. We are told that big directors are being considered to direct this film but nothing has been finalized as yet.
