Vandhan Vendran – Movie Review

2011-09-23T03:01:00.000-07:00

After his astounding success of K V Anand’s ‘Ko’, actor Jiiva joined the big league of those top young stars. Though his next outing ‘Rowthiram’ did not do well he had all hopes on this film ‘Vandhan Vendran’ that saw its release today!

And, here is the next big film of Jiiva ‘Vandhan Vendran’. So, how he has fared in the film and what his stakes are now at Kollywood is…?

And, to find more, go ahead reading…

‘Vandhan Vendran’s story tells the tale of Siva (Jiiva), who is a boxer by profession, falls in love with Anjana (Taapsee), who loses her father in an encounter with a Mumbai don (Nanda). Anjana puts a condition that only if Siva makes the don, who is responsible for her father’s death, to surrender to law she would accept his love. On his mission, Siva gets acquainted with the don and asks him to help him in his love by surrendering himself to the law. But, twist comes there that Siva and Ramana find that they are brothers of same mother and what happens next to the story, whether Siva sacrifices his love for his brother or Ramana offers himself for his brother Siva’s love or what about Anjana’s vow to bring her father’s killer to Justice… You have to watch the film!

Jiiva yet again comes out with a tremendous performance with this film. He excels with his varied expressions as a boxer, a lover, a brother and as a responsible angry young man. Hats off to this talented actor, who has again proved that he is a man of substance, with his superb acting skills!

Taapsee, as an architect, comes cute that what she appeared in her previous outing ‘Aadukalam’. But, she lacks that charm in expressions. Reasons, not only as a cute angel girl, the actress has also featured as an action star that she has handled weapons in this film. But, she fails to impress. Sorry, Taapsee, better luck next time!

Nanda, it is high time this wonderfully talented and good looking star should introspect himself with his past roles. The actor should now decide whether to continue doing the baddies. His role in much acclaimed film ‘Eeram’ was received well. But, it is not that he can fit well in all those negative characters, especially when he has to raise his fist for action! Nevertheless, the actor has tried his best to put a show but fails because of his looks and body built!

Comedian Santhanam at some places succeeds in tickling our funny bones with the character of Panipooriwala and those oneliners!

After his big hit ‘Kandaen Kadhalai’, and his earlier hit ‘Jayam Kondaan’, R. Kannan, a student of renowned director Mani Ratnam, has delivered yet another big project with this much hyped film. But, the director has failed to impress. In spite of his much hard work and efforts, it is very sad, that the untidy screenplay has let him down in this film, otherwise he could have again come out with yet another big success.

And as a film, the whole narration travels in a flashback mode many times, and sometimes it confuses as we face some difficulty in connecting those anecdotes. Screenplay could have been given more attention as it lacks coherence and crispiness. Also, the script drags at places.

Dialogues of Pattukkottai Prabhakar are well written that adds some strength to the movie. It seems the story, jointly written by writer Prabhakar and director R. Kannan, is inspired by the Hindi film ‘I Hate Luv Stories’ and Hollywood hit ‘Going the Distance’ but the director denies it.

Romance is filmed well, and action as well. Songs are filmed so nicely and forms the major visual pluses of the film. Thanks to the good tunes scored by music composer Thaman and the camera handling done by P G Muthiah.

While Thaman has already put his songs ‘Anjana…’ and ‘Kanchana mala…’ on top of the charts, which also lingers on even after you leave the cinema, cameraman Muthiah spreads a visual treat with his different lenses. Good work guys!

V T Vijayan could have given more cuts to this ‘also-an-action’ movie. Otherwise, he has well understood this Romance!

The movie is produced by K. S. Sreenivasan under the banner Vasan Visual Ventures.

Overall, ‘Vandhan Vendran’ has come as a big treat, but if it had rectified some flaws it could have seen a big success. May be another ‘Ko’ for Jiiva!

Sorry, Jiiva. Lady luck has not favoured as she did the magic that time!

However, ‘Vandhan Vendran’ is a good entertainer with all those basic ingredients of a wholesome entertainer!

Sure a watchable…!!!

Engeyum Eppothum - Movie Review

2011-09-23T03:00:00.000-07:00

Ramana’ and ‘Ghajini’, both Tamil and Hindi, cannot be erased from the minds of film goers forever. And, his next magnum opus ‘7aam Arivu’ is all set to see its release soon With his series of blockbusters under his kitty A R Murugadoss has proved that he is one of the most talented directors of Indian cinema. This young and highly talented director has turned producer with a simple and strategic film ‘Engeyum Eppodhum’!

‘Engeyum Eppodhum’ is released now. Result?

Yes, the director, and now also a producer, has successfully come out with flying colours, with the neat narration of this wonderfully woven story!

Bus accidents are very common these days. And, we see it as just an accident… When it happens to us and the experience could be anything – just an experience or a life changing big turning point!

‘Engeyum Eppodhum’ brings the latter! Yes, the story’s core point is a bus accident that puts two couples’ lives upside down!

Automobile company employee Kadhiresan (Jai) and Nurse Manimekalai (Anjali) are neighbours and these two opposite characters, a soft-spoken and good-hearted boy and outspoken and very practical girl, fall in love. They decide to get married and set out to meet Kadhiresan’s father, who lives in Villupuram. The couple boards a bus from Trichy, in a bus that goes to Chennai.

Another couple, Gautham (Sharvanand) and Amudha (Ananya) are also struck by the arrows of Cupid, when Gautham, an IT professional in Chennai, helps Amudha, who had come to Chennai from Trichy for an interview. After the interview Amudha returns to Trichy. The love-bug-bit unrest couple contemplates to meet again. Amudha again travels to Chennai in search of Gautham but in vain boards a bus at Chennai to travel back to Trichy.

Here, Gautham, who had come to Trichy, boards the same Chennai bus that Kadhiresan and Manimekalai take to go to Villupuram.

What destiny has is – a life-changing accident at Villupuram! And, the two couples meet at this point to give a big twist in the story.

What happens next? You, find the answer on Silverscreen!

Jai – Oh, what a performance? Where this guy had hidden all his potentials? Wonderful acting, extraordinarily delivered! This talented actor will go places if he chooses characters like this. Well done, Jai!

Sharvanand – Another, good show of acting skill in this film. He perfectly fits that IT guy, and all those expressions come to him and he shows it at ease.

Ananya – The bubbly actress does it again, after her unforgettable performance in ‘Nadodigal’. She adds big strength to the humourous track of the story with her energetic acting!

Anjali – Yet another simple and neat performance from this young girl, and yes the girl definitely brings love in the air with her eyes and facial expressions.

Other characters also fit the bill with their underplay acting. Others sure make a mark but stand nothing before the performance and dominance of the four lead characters.

Kudos to the debut director! M. Saravanan, a student from the school of A R Murugadoss, rises to heights with his well written screenplay with a never told, simple story, delivered in a novel way, but as clear water! And, characterization work also is excellent!

The flashbacks are nicely evolved and entwined in the fabric of the screenplay. The hard work of this young talented director is seen in every frame of the film. Sure, title ‘Eneyum Eppodhum’ will become the nametag for M. Saravanan. A big pat on his back!
The film introduces another talented young man, here. Sathya’s songs are good. But more than songs, the background score brings out the best from this debut composer. The right string and beat at the right place! Sathya has helped for the soft travel of the screenplay, and emerged big at places where his sound is required! Lyrics by Na. Muthukumar and M. Saravanan are an asset to the songs.

Velraj’s eye for detail is seen in many places. His work film by film is improving. And, with ‘Engeyum Eppodhum’ he sure makes another big leap. The travelling of his camera all through the film is very supportive to the story and is a big plus of the movie. The accident scene is worth mentioning!

Editing is good. But, could have given more cuts in the first half and at places in the second. Nevertheless, Anthony has worked understandingly!

‘Engeyum Eppodhum’ also joins the big league of big films in content, though made as a small budget and as small actor movie, with its out-of-the-box story and wonderfully woven screenplay, and a neat performance of the characters.

Big cheers to the Guru and the student… Yes, Murugadoss and M. Saravanan have done it!

And, it is a good maiden venture for Hollywood’s Fox Studios, who has produced the movie along with the ace director!

Again, big thanks to them for bringing out a stand-out film in the crowd of ‘masala’ run-of-the-mills!

A must watch – For every cinema aspirant, a cinema lover, a critic and for all ordinary film goers!

Get it seen, before others ask, “Have you not seen ‘Engeyum Eppodhum’?

Aayiram Vilakku – Movie Review

2011-09-23T02:48:00.000-07:00

This film has to have a release during those times when violence-stricken Madurai films were hitting screens in a row! And, ‘Aayiram Vilakku’ also comes with a story with Madurai city in the backdrop and with those sickles and other deadly weapons to scare us!!

Shathanoo Bhagyaraj, after his romantic outings with ‘Sakkarakatti’ and ‘Kandaen’, is venturing into big action with this film, and when veteran actor Sathyaraj was beside him, the actor seemed had no hardships in portraying, and he does it with elan!

Lingam (Sathyaraj) is a dreadful don of Madurai city and this unseen tough man raises fear among big and small people alike, but Rathinam (Suman), another big shot, wants and expects an encounter with Lingam.

Gopal (Shanthanoo) is a poor and honest boy who works in a mill in the same city. He falls in love with Megha (Sana Khan).

Lingam, who wants to get reformed in life, happens to meet Gopal and shows all his care and love, but hiding his identity. Gopal also finds a big caring heart in Lingam and gets close in the life of Lingam.

The story takes a twist when Rathinam targets Gopal, and now Lingam, who wants to shun violence, has to take the weapon again for his loving companion Gopal! And, here Gopal also takes a big move for the sake of Lingam!

So, what happens in the life of Lingam and Gopal? Watch it on Silver screen!

Sathyaraj has again delivered a stunning performance with equal dose of action and emotion. Shanthanoo has also supported the movie with all his efforts to give the performances for those romance, action and emotional scenes.

Suman and Sana Khan do their part to their best!

After his debut movie ‘February 14’, this is director S P Hosimin’s next that he succeeds in delivering a neat entertainer with a mix of all the ingredients of a commercial cinema.

The film’s music is composed by Srikanth Deva and camera is handled by D. Kannan. Both have done their job perfectly for the story, but Kannan goes that extra length with his camera. Good work, Kannan! Editing is done by Sasikumar.

Vairamuthu has written all the songs of the film, which are already a hit in the media. ‘Madhura…’ song is the highlight of the music with its well written lyrics, superb composing and perfect visuals.

‘Aayiram Vilakku’ is produced by HMI Movies. The movie’s production was over and ready for release long time back – last year, but getting a release only now. But, yes, the movie has succeeded to impress the awaiting fans!

Watchable it for Sathyaraj and Shanthanoo!

Suriya’s 7aam Arivu

2011-09-23T02:40:00.000-07:00

Suriya’s ‘7aam Arivu’ is almost over and getting released on this Diwali. Suriya plays three characters in the film – a circus aritist, a scientist and a Buddhist monk. The tricks and actions of the circus artist’s role are done by Suriya himself by taking big risks and hardships.

The actor has also done dangerous stunts on his own. It is said that the A R Murugadoss directed film has many new things in film to offer. Shruti Hassan is playing the female lead and a Vietnamese stunt actor is playing the villain.

Industry is expecting another historic hit from Suriya – A R Murugadoss combo, the magic what they did with their earlier outing ‘Ghajini’. And, one man from Bollywood is very keen and awaiting the release of the film and he is none other than Aamir Khan, who reprised Suriya in the Hindi remake of ‘Ghajini’ that became a super duper hit in his career. Now, the star is eyeing ‘7aam Arivu’ also to do a remake in Hindi. The actor would like to have A R Murugadoss again to direct the movie as he knows his talents and ‘Ghajini’ history is there as a proof.

If ‘7aam Arivu’ makes another history then sure Aamir will buy the remake rights to make it in Bollywood!

Black and White Photography

2011-08-02T22:42:00.000-07:00

Many digital photographers actually prefer to shoot images for Black and White in low contrast situations. So an dark or overcast day can be a great time to shoot out door shots.

Ironically these are the days that those who shoot only in color sit at home complaining about the ‘poor light’. So next time you find yourself with a dark and gloomy day – shoot some black and white shots.

Black and White Photography

Most of the general tips on how to compose or frame a good shot apply just as well to black and white photography as they do when shooting in color – however the main obvious difference is that you’re unable to use color to lead the eye into or around your shot. This means you need to train yourself to look at shapes, tones and textures in your frame as points of interest. Pay particularly attention to shadows and highlights which will become a feature of your shot.

Mesothelioma Treatment

2011-07-29T23:56:00.000-07:00

Mesothelioma Treatment Options

Mesothelioma treatment can entail a number of therapies intended to kill cancerous cells, prevent the tumor from spreading or alleviate the symptoms of the disease. Each patient’s situation is unique and will shape their treatment plan. Factors such as the stage and form of mesothelioma, treatment history, patient’s location, ability to travel and financial situation are all important to consider when seeking treatment.

Types of Mesothelioma Treatment

If a patient’s diagnosis and health indicates that their response to curative treatment may be positive, their doctor may develop a course of treatment to remove the tumor(s) and attempt to prevent metastasis throughout the body. If the patient is dealing with a late-stage cancer, the treatment is more likely to be palliative in nature, addressing the symptoms while improving the patient’s quality of life. The following treatment options may be either palliative or curative, depending on the patient’s case:

Surgery
Surgery is one of the most common treatments for mesothelioma. Patients whose cancer was diagnosed before it spread beyond the lymph nodes may be eligible for curative surgery that removes the tumors. Depending upon the patient’s diagnosis and overall health, mesothelioma surgeries can be either curative or palliative, and may fall somewhere in between if surgery efforts are effective. Mesothelioma surgery is commonly followed by other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation in an attempt to kill any remaining cancer cells.

Emerging & Alternative Treatments
While surgical procedures, chemotherapy and radiation therapy are considered the most common types of mesothelioma treatment, a number of new therapies are currently in development. Immunotherapy manipulates the patient’s immune system into attacking the tumors, while photodynamic therapy exposes cancer cells to photosensitizing drugs and specific lights. Gene therapy is another experimental treatment that attempts to correct defective genes that may lead to cancerous changes.

Multimodal Therapy
Multimodal therapy is one of the most common approaches to treating mesothelioma, combining two or more treatments that may be completed simultaneously or in a planned sequence. A mesothelioma specialist can most adequately analyze a patient’s condition and develop a treatment regimen that will best benefit the patient.

Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are used to test experimental treatments before they are approved for widespread clinical use. These trials often explore new procedures and drugs and compare them to the current standard of mesothelioma treatment.

Alternative & Complimentary Treatments
When choosing a therapy plan, some patients consider alternative and complementary mesothelioma treatments. Alternative treatments refer to any unconventional treatment methods, and complementary treatments refer to an alternative therapy used to supplement one or more conventional treatments. A number of mesothelioma survivors credit their remission to alternative therapies.

Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy has shown to be the most effective and least invasive form of treatment to extend life expectancy. Depending upon the location of the cancer, some patients may be eligible for heated chemotherapy, a treatment commonly used for cases of peritoneal mesothelioma. Cisplatin, the most commonly used chemotherapy drug for mesothelioma, is frequently used in conjunction with pemetrexed to achieve the most advantageous results in reducing tumors

Radiation
Radiation therapy directly applies radiation to the cancerous locations. This is through either sealed or unsealed source radiation. Patients of all stages are eligible to receive radiation therapy, as it can be used in conjunction with other treatments to reduce tumor growth and ease symptoms.

Buzz is that Shahid Kapoor is more than involved in Kunal Kohli's upcoming film

2011-06-29T01:10:00.000-07:00

According to rumours, Shahid Kapoor, who has always expressed a desire to get into direction, is taking his dream a bit too seriously with Kunal Kohli's next film.
According to sources, the actor gives a lot of inputs in the film, tentatively titled Janam Janam Ka Saath Hai Hamara Tumhara.

The movie is a period love story set across three generations and stars SK opposite ex flame Priyanka Chopra. The pair is coming together for the first time for this project after Kaminey.

In control
A highly placed source on the set revealed, "Shahid has more or less taken the reins from director Kunal Kohli's hands. He sometimes also calls the shots on important matters like where to shoot and how to shoot a particular scene."

The source informs that the actor has also contributed a lot to the script
"Kunal wanted to shoot the first schedule in London but Shahid requested him to shoot in Mumbai first. So the director gave in.

SK wanted to shoot the first schedule in the city, so that he is available to finish some patchwork for Mausam his dad's film."

Working in tandem
A friend of the actor explains, "Every big star gives inputs in his film, it doesn't mean they are ghost directing it. The actor and the director work as a team and consult each other."

While the Kapoor lad remained available for comment, when asked if he is doing most of the direction, Kunal quipped sarcastically, " ¦And I am acting in the film."

After reports emerged that Bollywood lass Sonam Kapoor may make her Southern cine debut with a Tamil movie, the actress has called the reports plain rumours. Sonam Kapoor was also reported to be replacing Sonakshi in the Kamal Haasan starrer Viswaroopam.

MANSOOR KHAN IS BACK

2011-06-29T01:00:00.001-07:00

Now this is going to be ‘big breaking news’ for all those who actually thought that one of Indian Film Industry’s gem was lost and took a sabbatical. His career began way back with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, followed by Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander, Akele Hum Akele Tum and then Josh. Now in such cases, you really don’t want the readers to keep guessing. So I can simply put it like – MANSOOR KHAN IS BACK!

Yes, the producer of Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na is back to where he belongs and back to what he does best. As of now, Aamir Khan has once again urged him to step into writing, and that too for Aamir Khan Productions. Aamir clarified the above when I met him yesterday at the Taj Lands End in Bandra where he was giving interviews for his next production Delhi Belly.

He quotes, “Mansoor Khan is a great talent. He produced Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na with me. I had to convince him for that (laughs). But this time I’ve convinced him to write for me too. After a long time, he will be coming back to writing in films. Four of us – I, Kiran, Mansoor and Nuzhat are working on it together. We start writing next month.”

deepika and vijay maliya new lovers

2011-06-29T00:57:00.001-07:00

Ex flame of Ranbir Kapoor, actress Deepika Padukone is, currently, linked to Siddharth Mallya, the son of the liquor baron Vijay Mallya. Though the two haven’t confirmed their romance to the media, the tongues have been wagging right since they rubbed cheeks on IPL (Indian Premiere League).

The two have been spotted on many occasions since then and though they have maintained that they are merely friends, there is little doubt in the shrewd minds of the tabloid as to their brewing romance. The couple had an Indian Christmas which they celebrated in the town. But the buzz is that they are heading to London to celebrate the New Year. So, they can look forward to a cosy UK celebration as they bid adieu to 2010.

Meanwhile, Siddhartha has reasons to look happy. After all, his girlfriend Deepika Padukone is shedding weight and going near size zero for her item song in ‘Dum Maro Dum.’ Recently, we saw Katrina Kaif shed oodles of weight to look glamorous in ‘Tees Maar Khan’. Earlier, Kareena Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai had gone size zero for their films Tashan and Dhoom 2.

After making her breakup with Ranbir public and taking a full-fledged `panga’ on the `Koffee with Karan’ show with the youngest Kapoor boy Deepika Padukone is back in news. If you are a bollywood superstar you have to deal with controversies every day, whether you want them or not. Since the IPL days when Deepika was a prominent face at the Mallya matches sitting alongside Siddharth Mallya, there have been speculations of the two having an affair.

The rumors started catching up when both of them were spotted together at various events and parties organized by the millionaire son of the liquor king.

Rumor has it that the two love birds have planned a full-fledged vacation at London for the New Year celebrations.

After 5 films releasing back to back this year, the long-legged star has a well-deserved off. Both of them have however remained silent on the rumors and have maintained the cliché of being `good friends’. Vijay Mallya’s son is known to have a Casanova image in the industry but the beauty is a well experienced campaigner.

Going into the main awards show, Once Upon a Time in Mumbai led the field with 12 nominations, followed close behind with Dabangg and its 11 nominations.

Shah Rukh Khan, Anil Kapoor (Slumdog Millionaire) and the Deol family were among the dozens of Bollywood superstars on hand in Toronto for the three-day IIFA Awards festival and awards show.

Shah Rukh Khan earlier tweeted to his fans that he was getting his knee taped up to perform a dance routine at the IIFA Awards show. “Feeling awful not being fully fit for IIFA ... as is attending after so many years ... will try and do my best. Toronto knee or not here I come !!!”

During a security lapse at the Toronto gala show, a fan rushed to the front of the stage and grabbed Shah Rukh Khan’s leg until his grip was loosened and he was escorted away.

In all, around 22,000 Bollywood fans filled Rogers Centre for the awards show, which reached an estimated worldwide TV audience of 600 million people.

Toronto has a 600,000-strong indo-Canadian community and politicians of all stripes take every chance they can to pose in front of local cameras with Bollywood stars.

Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper is frequently photographed with Akshay Kumar, and Ontario premiere Dalton McGuinty on Friday did a photo call with Shah Rukh Khan.

On Saturday night, McGuinty arrived on the green carpet outside Rogers Centre alongside Shah Rukh Khan yet again.

And Anil Kapoor gave McGuinty a rousing introduction Saturday night as the Ontario politician at the Rogers Centre repaid Bollywood’s North American charm offensive by bringing worldwide TV attention to Toronto.

Red Chillies Entertainment’s ‘Ra.One’ is growing bigger and slicker day by day… While the movie is releasing only in October as a Diwali treat, but the makers have already started its promotion with much fervour.

shahrukh and katrina kaif confirmed for yash chopra's new film

2011-06-27T18:36:00.000-07:00

As already announced, Yash Chopra's next directorial venture stars the king of romance, Shahrukh Khan. As Yashji put it earlier, "Everyone knows that when I make a movie, Shahrukh will be involved with it. He is like family to YRF and I have always regarded him as one of my own."

However, after days of media conjecturing, we are happy to confirm that the two ladies, who will also be a part of this project, are Katrina Kaif, who will be playing a role opposite Shahrukh for the very first time, and Anushka Sharma, who was launched in "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi", alongside Shahrukh.

Orchestrated by Yash Chopra, this untitled movie will mark the coming together yet again of the award winning duo of the music maestro A. R. Rahman and the poet & lyricist, Gulzar.

When we spoke with him, he shared some of his thoughts with us.

"It's been 7 years since I directed Veer-Zaara and as I begin work on my new film I hear my inner voice asking me a lot of questions. Are you sure you want to direct again, you are nearly 80 years old and the audience is getting younger day by day. Can I really speak from my heart and still expect today's youth to listen to me? Will I be able to live up to the blind faith that Shahrukh Khan has in me and give him yet another memorable romantic film? Will I be able to present the beautiful Katrina Kaif and the very talented Anushka Sharma in a way they have never been seen before? Will I be able to inspire Rahman and Gulzar Bhai enough to create their best work yet?

The honest answer is... I DON'T KNOW! All I know is that I'm making a film that I believe in, a film that is about love and nothing else. A film which has an old soul but a young heart. A film which is classic in its look but contemporary in its language. A film which I'm making on one simple faith... the love that my audiences have given to me over the years. They have tolerated my indulgences for the past 50 years, I'm sure they will indulge me one more time."

The film is scheduled for a Diwali 2012 release, the festive time when Yash Chopra movies over the years have lit up homes worldwide.
