As we all know that Billa 2 is a prequel to Billa that released in 2007, it makes us wonder if there would be some continuation from it.

However, the actress had refused at that time. But now with news that Nayan is planning to make her comeback, the filmmakers sent her another request to consider doing the cameo. This time she has agreed and that particular scene is to be shot soon, say sources.

Wedding bells for P Vasu's son Sakthi

2012-02-21T15:14:00.001+08:00

One more eligible bachelor of Tamil cinema is set to lose the single status. We are referring to Shakthi, son of veteran director P Vasu, and the one who had acted in films such as 'Thottal Poo Malarum', 'Ninaithale Inikkum' and 'Mahesh Saranya Mattrum Palar'.

His wedding with Smrithi, with whom he was engaged in June this year, is to take place on 31 October 2011, at Mayor Ramanathan Hall in Chennai. "Vasu is busy doing arrangements for his son's marriage, which is expected to draw the who-is-who of south Indian cinema," sources say.

Smriti, who is the daughter of a Chennai-based industrialist, and Shakthi had been seeing one another for the past two years, it is said. "Since Smriti's family is close to Vasu's, elders decided to unite Shakthi and Smriti in wedlock," sources further say.

At present, Shakthi is acting in three films -'Aedho Seidhai Ennai', 'Kalla Sirippazhaga' and 'Vanjikottai Vaaliban'. He expects all the above ventures would work big time in the box office and would put him in the top league of stars.

Simbu in the Shruti and Dhanush angle!

2012-02-21T15:01:00.000+08:00

It's known that the proximity between Shruti Hassan and Dhanush have set a few tongues wagging. Kollywood media, in its entirety, speculated about their brewing friendship that is seemingly graduating itself into another form. Their sighting in public places are meticulously scrutinised and reported. This issue reached its pinnacle when a weekly tabloid did a complete cover story on their budding relationship.

It was reported that the couple's proximity has irked superstar Rajinikanth, with whose elder daughter Aishwarya, Dhanush is married to. The tabloid quoted sources saying that Rajinikath called on Kasthuri Raja, Dhanush's dad, and reported on the issue asking him to talk to Dhanush about it. After this cover story was out, it was speculated that Shruti went ballistic reading it and was considering suing the magazine.

However, Shruti wrote a detailed letter to the magazine blaming them for writing unverified news and tarnishing her image. The magazine, in turn, turned apologetic and issued a public apology for publishing the story. Shruti posted it on twitter and Dhanush re-tweeted the same. Now you might think this is the end of the story. Hardly so. It looks like it's going to be the beginning of another one. For when Dhanush tweeted, he mentioned that he knows who the magazine's source was in publishing the story! Now that's taking a jibe at someone, we say. Stay tuned for more updates on this one.
