KAJAL AGARWAL TO ROMANCE HEROINE’S FATHER


Actress Kajal Agarwal is reaching new heights by bagging most of the bilingual films made down South and that too each one of them opposite top stars. After getting paired with Surya, Karthi and Vijay, now the saucy seductress will be romancing none other than Kamal Hassan.

Reportedly, Kamal will be directing one more flick after ‘Viswaroopam 2‘ and this new project is a collaboration of the actor’s home production ‘Raj Kamal Internations‘ and director Lingusamy‘s banner ‘Tirupati Brothers‘.

After spy-thrillers like ‘Viswaroopam‘ & ‘Viswaroopam 2‘, Kamal has inclined towards action-adventure and this film is going to be a proper commercial entertainer unlike most of his earlier films. Interestingly, Kajal who is having the same age of Kamal’s elder daughter Shruti Hassan has been roped as leading lady.

Film observers say, Kamal looks much younger than his actual age and also more handsome than most of his counterparts in the Industry.

They question, what’s the big deal if he romances an actress half of his age! After all, they are just playing characters and definitely not real life love-birds.

HOW AMALA PAUL GETTING OFFERS?

Dusky beauty Amala Paul is the move upward in career ladder very quickly in both Kollywood and Tollywood. The actress from Malayalam got recognition in Tamil with ‘Mynaa‘ and made her debut with ‘Bezawada‘ in Tollywood. Currently she is the busiest heroine in both languages.

Even though the movie ‘Love Failure’ had an average grosser but it helps her to sustain in Tollywood. After ‘Nayak‘ in this year her image completely changed to glamorous. She is working two crazy projects. She is playing female lead opposite Allu Arjun in the direction of Puri direction in ‘Iddarammayilatho‘ which slated for release tomorrow.

And with hero Vijay in ‘Thalaivaa‘ will be released in August this year and also with Jayam Ravi in Tamil. 2013 will be the turning point in her career. Every actress has her own ways to gain offers in the industry. Some move through PROs and others through her Managers for offers.




As per the sources Amala Paul reportedly met leading directors and heros for seeking film offers. After Vijay she is targeting Surya, Ajith and Karthi in Tamil and in Telugu she is tring for NTR and Mahesh for offers.

Amala Paul can remember that only performance will be the only factor to sustain long in career, not references and recommendations.

MORE DOSE OF SHRUTI HASSAN’S SEXPOSING

Actress Shruti Hassan exuded effortless elegance as she wore this gorgeous outfit for a latest photo session. The desirable quotient of this skinny lady is her good looks and she has been using them to the best of her ability to win many more hearts.

You really can’t find fault with that ‘captivating’ eyes or ‘flawless’ skin tone or the way she carries herself, but keep awestruck catching a glimpse of her beauty. What on earth could be the right option to compare with this alluring babe?

Keep guessing Guys! Until you find an answer, don’t stop staring at this diva!!

NAYANTARA’S EX HAS NO TIME TO BE LONELY


He is ace choreographer turned director and going places. He is former boyfriend of Malayalam siren Nayantara. Perhaps, this is enough to get your guess! Yes, it is Prabhu Deva.

The dancing icon Prabhu deva, who turned 40 today, finally breaks his silence. He says he has no time to brood over his loneliness. ‘Of course, I’d like someone in my life. And of course, when I go home in the evening I wish there was someone waiting for me. But very honestly, I don’t have time to be lonely.

My work fills up most of my day and when I get home I just want to sleep. As for company, I’ve some good friends in Mumbai and Chennai,’ he said. For this birthday, Prabhu deva flew home to Chennai to be with his two sons and very close friends. He has hits like ‘Pokkiri‘, ‘Wanted‘ and ‘Rowdy Rathore‘.

He quipped on turning 40, ‘I’ve heard life starts at 40. I wouldn’t know until I get there… I suspect 40 would just be another number. I have never allowed myself to stop and consider my age. I’ve always been on the move.’

Prabhu deva was supposed to enter wedlock with Nayantara but called it quits later. He even parted ways with his wife for Nayan. Does Nayantara conveyed birthday greetings to Prabhu? May be or may not. But this is the question doing rounds in Tamil and Hindi film industry.

RUMORS ON HANSIKA MOTWANI AND SIMBU LOVE AFFAIR

Strong buzz making rounds in the Industry is that Hansika Motwani is in a relationship with Tamil hero Simbu.

Apparently, Simbu recently declared he was seeing an actress for the past one year and will soon take the relationship to a next level. By confirming the fact that the beauty isn’t a Tamilian, Simbu has set the tongues wagging.

Currently, Simbu and Hansika Motwani are working for two back-to-back projects ‘Vaalu‘ and ‘Vettai Mannan‘. Surprisingly, both these films were the productions of our Casanova hero. The duo were even spotted at the most happening places in Hyderabad.

Simbu‘s comments praising the beauty of actress too added fuel to the fire. “Hansika Motwani is one of those gorgeous girls one can’t help get enough of her, even after many number of glimpses. I have chosen to work with her in back-to-back films because of her beauty and charm,” opined the actor few months back.

All these developments were leading to the conclusion that they were dating and how far they could deny it is to be seen.

NAMITHA ASKS FOR A KISS FROM DEBUTANT DIRECTOR

Namitha, the former dream girl of many Tamil fans, created some anxious moments by openly asking for a kiss from a debutant director. The incident occurred during the audio-launch of a short film Hi Pooja I am Krishnan held in Chennai earlier this week.

For the first time in Kollywood history, the audio-launch of a short film was held in the form of a grand function. Krishnakanth is the director who was asked by Namitha to give her a kiss. Speaking at the function, Krishnakanth remarked that it was the first time that the audio of a short film was being released through a function.

“My parents are majorly responsible for this effort of mine; they have always encouraged and stood by me in all my endeavours. I’m now going to do something and I hope the audiences won’t mind,” he said. He then called his parents to come up on-stage kissed them affectionately. Namitha, who was watching this, gestured as if saying that she was also to be kissed in a similar manner.

Krishnakanth smiled and said “I couldn’t have asked for a better offer; if anybody here felt jealous about me, I’m not at all responsible.” However, he didn’t go ahead to call Namitha on-stage to kiss her.

Director Samuthirakkani, actors  Srikanth and Shanthanu Bhagyaraj were among others who participated in the function and wished Krishnanth a huge success.

Top 10 most beautiful and glamorous actresses of South Indian Cinema!





Top leading actresses of the South Indian film industry have not just set our eyeballs rolling with their glamorous looks, but have also blown us away with their stunning performances.

AMALA PAUL TALKS ABOUT AFFAIR WITH UNCLE

Again and again, our hot dusky actress is getting haunted by the memories of past and she regrets doing it. This is Amala Paul talking about her filmy affair in an emotional tone but not anything else.

Kick starting her career in Malayalam movies, this young Mallu girl became a rage in Tamilnadu after she acted in the film Sindhu Samaveli.

The film deals with the illicit affair between a father in law and his son’s wife Sundari, played by Amala Paul. Way back in 2010 when the film released, many Sambar women stormed toward Amala Paul at a theatre and scolded her for doing such a role on sivler screen.

The actress says that she cannot forget that incident and never ever she wants to do such flicks again. An young girl having affair with her uncle is not a digestible thing to be shown on Indian screen, for the kind of culture we are brought up with, say critics.

Amala Paul felt that she is ready for all commercial movies that have two or three heroines and glamour quotient is also not a big deal. But not more illicit affairs on silver screen at any point later

Nikesha’s next with Gautham Karthik

Actress Nikesha Patel, who has already signed three Tamil films, has just finalized a fourth, even before the release of her first. And this one, a romantic comedy, will see the actress paired opposite Kadal star Gautham Karthik. The film will be directed by Ravi Thyagarajan, who has, in the past, assisted director Priyadarshan.

The actress will play a bubbly character in the film. Ask her why she signed the film and she says, "It's a great story that will be set in Chennai and I felt the character suited my personality."

The actress, who is excited to work with a young team, says, "I've worked with Gautham's father in Om, but have never met
Gautham. I hear he's super tall and am looking forward to meeting him."

Kajal Aggarwal bags Kamal's film?

Kajal Aggarwal has been climbing her career ladder fast with hit films with stars like Karthi, Suriya, and Vijay in Kollywood. She has been starring opposite some of the top-ranking heroes in Kollywood and Tollywood.

Lingusamy had recently confirmed that Kamal Haasan and he are teaming up for a project, which will commence from October this year. This will be Kamal's next film after Viswaroopam 2 and that Kamal will direct this film and also act in it.

Shruti Haasan slips near swimming pool

Lakshmi Rai says no for acting without blouse


Actress Lakshmi Rai refused to act without wearing blouse and because of this the role went to Iniya in the film Masani.

Director LGR while speaking about this said, “Romance blossoms between the upper crust youngster and a lower crust girl.

The sister-in-law of the youngster who is cast fanatic opposes this love. At this juncture, the lower crust girl becomes pregnant.

This angers the sister-in-law. She murders both of them. The murdered come in the form of ghosts and take revenge on her. Ramki who was not acting for the last ten years is again making his re-entry as hero.

Iniya dons the role of his love interest. As per the story, the heroine should not wear blouse. I approached Lakshmi Rai for the female lead role. When I said that she has to act without wearing blouse, she refused.

South actresses in call girl roles

-->
As films get bolder, our actresses get more versatile. While Bollywood has its share of heroines who have played the role of sex worker, filmmakers in the south too have cast actresses from here in similar roles. Here's a look at four actresses from the south who're essaying the risque call girl role in their films
Shruti Haasan Film: D-Day Language: Hindi Characterization: Her first-look in the film shocked many, but Shruti Haasan has taken on the role of a Karachi prostitute with panache. We hear her character falls in love with a RAW officer, and their love story takes the film forward.

Haripriya Film: Abbayi Class Ammayi Mass Language: Telugu Characterization: The actress plays a call girl for the first time in her career, and has attended an eight-day workshop for the role. "I learnt the slang, the way they dress and their body language for the film, which is about how a call girl learns the value of relationship and marriage and changes for the better. It's a sensible film and I had no second thoughts about taking on this role," she says.

Shriya Saran Film: Pavitra Language: Tamil and Telugu Characterization: The sexy siren plays the role of a prostitute, who nurtures an ambition of becoming a powerful politician in this film, directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Janardhana Maharshi. Shriya had told us that this film would be an important one in her career, and has given her an opportunity to showcase her acting skills. "It was a tough decision to make, but my character has been handled with dignity, and not vulgarly," she had

Charmmee Film: Prema Oka Maikam Language: Telugu Characterization: Though hesitant at first, Charmmee was totally convinced of her character as soon director Chandu narrated the script to her. She will be seen playing a call girl catering to the high class society in the film, and says this role has given her scope to perform and experiment.

I have a small and cute role, says Priyanka Kothari


Back in 2003, a certain 'Amoga' entered Kollywood as the leading lady in the Madhavan-starrer Jay Jay. And today, the actress, who now calls herself Priyanka Kothari, is looking forward to the release of her film Karimedu.

Based on real-life incidents related to the Dandupalya gang, Karimedu revolves around the crimes committed and the way people were treated. Priyanka plays a pregnant woman in the film and this guest appearance is, as she puts it, a "small and cute role."
She says, "The Kannada film did well, and I'm expecting its Tamil version to be successful too. We shot for the talkie portions and two songs in Mysore. I play the victim of the gang and the character, though small, has a lot of weight. The entire unit and team was wonderful to work with."
So, why has it been a while since the actress was last seen in a Kollywood film? "In time, Tamil cinema will see more of me. I like the subjects done here, and the way they are picturized. I'd love to star in Tamil films, provided I get a good offer and storyline," she adds.
Her last appearance in a Tamil film was in a dance number, in Jiiva's Kacheri Arambam. Ask her if she'll do another such number in the future, and she says, "Well, if it's a good song, I will take it up."

Andrea, first choice for Aadukalam?

Interestingly, Andrea Jeremiah was the first option for the role of an Anglo-Indian girl in Dhanush's National-Award-winning Aadukalam, but the actress had missed out on the opportunity. The offer then went to Taapsee Pannu and the Punjabi lass made her debut with the role.

Though it was a miss for Andrea, she says that was happy Taapsee got the offer. However, Andrea did make her presence felt in the character by dubbing for Taapsee. Her work and voice fetched praises, especially the Anglo-Indian diction.

No Malayalam releases in Bangalore due to piracy


Last year, after the Kerala Anti-piracy Cell and producers' association filed a case against a theatre in Bangalore for allowing piracy, they arrested the culprits and ensured the proprietor and manager of the theatre were taken to task. However, the crime seems to have re-emerged and the anti-piracy cell in Kerala has now taken much stronger action. They've decided not to release any Malayalam films in Karnataka for a month.

"We've taken this decision after meeting with the Anti-piracy Cell and producers' association. By doing this, the root causes of piracy will be taught a lesson," says Anil V Thomas, the General Secretary of the Kerala Film Chamber of Commerce. The decision has not been implemented yet. Ask Abdul Azeez, convener of the Anti-piracy Cell and producers' association, why Bangalore, and he says, "In the last 3-4 months, we've seen that Malayalam films are recorded in one theatre in Bangalore. They record the film in the theatre, and sell the CDs of the film within three days of its release and upload it on the internet."

Milan Jaleel, who produced the Mohanlal-starrer Run Baby Run, says, "Producers have lost 20-30% of our revenue because of piracy. So now, we're tracing the movies that have been uploaded on the internet and ensuring that they are deleted. However, Malayalam movies that are uploaded on international websites cannot be deleted as uploading new releases is not a crime there," he says.

Actress Parvathi Menon, who has acted in Malayalam, Kannada and Telugu films, says the decision not to release films in a particular state is only a short-term solution. "It's not just Malayalam films that face piracy. The Kerala Film Chamber should deal with this on an individual basis or just restrict the release of Malayalam films to good theatres."
Sa Ra Govindu, former secretary of the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce, agrees with Parvathy's point of view, though only partially. "If they decide not to release their films here, it's going to be a loss only for them. They should approach us and we could try to solve the problem together. Only then can we rope in the Karnataka police and take corrective actions," he says.

Kannada filmmaker KM Chaitanya asks, "No Kannada film ever gets pirated. Then, why would we pirate other films? Most Malayalam films are released in multiplexes in Bangalore. If a particular single-screen theatre is the troublemaker, then the Kerala Film Chamber should approach our film chamber and inform them. Even we have an efficient system and if they have taken this decision unilaterally, so it's an insult to our government and concerned institutions," he concludes.
