0

Actress Suhasini Maniratnam who is also the wife of director Maniratnam last day told in Chennai that a film should be reviewed or to write about films one should be qualified or he or/she have to be a qualified writer. She told it to the media people who came to the function at Chennai which was arranged for the pre-release promotion for Mani Ratnam’s upcoming flick OK Kanmani which will start to screen all over from this Friday.

Suhasini said that every aspect of a film is done by experts or qualified people who learned to do that particular aspect. There are various departments in a film and all is doing by the people who knows how to do it or they have learned those arts to do it perfectly. She said that film reviewing also be like that and the medias have to follow it as well.

Suhasini said that media have to make sure that those who writes about the film would be a qualifies person to do it and now- a-days anyone who have a computer or key board can become a film critic or film reviewer irrespective of the fact that whether they are qualified to do the job. Suhasini also said that this film has been made by qualified people like A R Rahman in music department, Dulquer Salmaan, Leela Samson and Nithya Menon etc in acting department, P C Sreeram in Cinematography department and ofcourse scripting and direction by the master Mani Ratnam himself.

She told that everybody in this film had done a wonderful job to make it a great experience and she requested the media to watch the film and write about it with honesty. Suhasini indirectly said about the online writers and pages which kills certain films with their writings and reviews and people tend to follow those writings thinking that those writings were done by qualified persons who have great knowledge about what they are doing. But the matter of fact is that even a person who knows nothing about film making and the nuances of film making can write about films and its details and sometimes criticize the masters of the game using their very little knowledge.

0

Popular star Jayaram who is one of the most favorite heroes of family audience in mollywood is all set to play the male lead opposite the glamorous actress of south Indian cinema, the gorgeous actress Raai Lakshmi aka Lakshmi Rai. Jayaram will be seen along with Raai Lakshmi in the upcoming mollywood movie which has been titled as Santhoshamayi Gopiyetta which is actually a famous phrase from one of the old Malayalam films of the 60’s or 70’s.

Santhoshamayi Gopiyetta will be complete family entertainer and it will be directed by Boban Samuel who is very popular among the mollywood audience with films like Janapriyan with Jayasurya and Bhama, Romans with Kunchacko Boban and Biju Menon, Happy Journey with Lal and Jayasurya etc. Raai Lakshmi is very popular all over south India for her glamorous roles in Tamil films and she had also acted with Megastar Mammootty and Universal star Mohanlal in a number of mollywood films and she was the female lead in those films as well.

Raai Lakshmi is pairing up with Jayaram for the first time in her and her last outing in mollywood was with Mammootty’s pair in last year film named Rajadhiraja which ended up as an average grosser at box office. Lakshmi rai had played a key role in the tamil film named Dham Dhoom starring Jayam Ravi and in that film Jayaram also played a role of negative nature.

The story of the film  Santhoshamayi Gopiyetta revolves around the character named Gopi Krishnan and his family and his journey to Melbourn to attend a function which actually paves way for some interesting events to happen in his life and the film tells us how he faces it. The character named Gopi will be played by Jayaram and almost the 90 % of the film will be shot at Melbourn, Australia.

Other detail about the cast and crew of the film is still not finalized and Jayaram is now doing the film named Thinkal Muthal Velli Vare in which popular anchor and singer Rimi Tomy is making her debut in mollywood and that too as the female lead in the film. Jayaram will join in Santhoshamayi Gopiyetta after he finishes up the above mentioned project which he is doing currently.

What will be mega star Mammootty’s advices to his son Dulquer Salmaan..? We know everyone will love to know it if there was any. Being a professional in the same industry he may have given certain advices to his son and it will be something of great value considering Mammootty’s experience in this industry.

Dulquer Salmaan was asked about it by the media in an FM station interview as a part of the promotion of his upcoming Tamil flick OK Kanmani which is helmed by the master Mani Ratnam. Most of the the question by media about his experience in OK Kanmani and about working with Mani Ratnam. Dulquer Salmaan said that Mani Ratnam is more like his father as both of them are very young at their heart and think youthfully and have that energy of a young man when they are working in the film.

When he was asked about the advices given to him by his father Mammootty, Dulquer said that his father is not a type who gaves you a lot of advices and not a one who interferes in your life too much. Dulquer said that actors like Mammootty and Mohanlal had come in mollywood during a time of transition as there was no major hero in mollywood after Sathyan and Prem Nazeer. Both Mammootty and Mohanlal come together, they learned together and made mistakes together. But they learned from their mistakes and never regretted it.

Dulquer said that because they have no background of cinema in their families both Mammootty and Mohanlal had no one to guide them or teach them like how to do things and what to do. So they just done things as they know and learned of their own. He said that his father told the same to him as don’t regret on a mistake you have done and learn from your mistakes. No one is perfect and every human being in bound to make mistakes. But one have to learn from all those mistakes rather than regretting on what he had done. Dulquer said in a funny vein that Mammootty had told him to be a good man and don’t spoil at least Mammootty’s reputation by behaving bad.

Kalidas Jayaram not to Malayalam soon..?

0

Kalidas, son of Mollywood popular actor Jayaram has made his debut as a young hero in Tamil film directed by Balaji Tharuneetharan. Oru Pakka Kathai is the name of the film and youngster Kalidas shot to fame in Tamil with a mimicry performance in which he imitated actors like Surya, Ilaya thalapathy Vijay, Thala Ajith etc in front of them and that was really a turning point in him. Apart from that Ulakanayakan Kamala Haasan introduced Kalidasan in the above mentioned film and the clapping of the first shot of his debut film s done by his father Jayaram.

Director of his above mentioned film is Balaji tharuneetharan and he is a director whose first film is well received and critically acclaimed titled as Naduvula Konjam Pakkatha Kaanom and this film with Kalidas is his second film only. The heroine of the film is also a newcomer named Megha Aakash. Even though it is his debut as a hero kalidasan is not new to the field of acting as he is a national award winning actor in the child artist category many years ago for his superb performance in the Bobby-Sanjay scripted Sibi Malayil directorial film named Ente Veedu Appoontem in which along with him his father Jayaram played the lead male role.

He had made his debut as an actor in Malayalam cinema named Kochu Kochu Santhoshangal directed by Sathayn Anthikkad in which he played the role of the son of the character played by his father Jayaram. In both films in mollywood he had acted along with his father and in both films he played the role of the son of the character played by jayaram. From that time onwards mollywood film lovers are waiting for the grand entry of Kalidas Jayaram into mollywood as a hero.

The filming of his first Tamil film is in its last stage and reports are coming in that Kalidas Jayaram is getting many offers from Tamil and some of which he liked as well. It seems that Kalidas’s entry into Malayalam as a hero will not be coming so soon as he is busy with the Tamil films. Jayaram had earlier said that Kalidas will definitely do mollywood films if the right script comes his way. Hope it will come very soon and we all will have the chance to watch the young Kalidas on own big screen speaking Malayalam.

0

The rumours are doing the rounds in mollywood that the super star of mollywood Mohanlal and the most valuable director now in Mollywood Jeethu Joseph will join hands again after the out of the world success Drishyam which has become a classic in mollywood. Some months back the reports came in that their second outing after the gigantic success Drishaym will start rolling this year itself after Mohanlal completes Ranjith directorial film Lohamwhich is filming now and Vysakh directorial film titled Puli Murugan which will start in this May.

Meanwhile Jeethu Joseph will complete the second schedule of his film Life Of Josootty which has Dileep as male lead and then he will complete the script of the upcoming Mohanlal project. But now there seems to be some change in the planning as sources says that due to the earlier commitments and busy schedules ahead both Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph had decided to postpone the filming of their new film to next year and it will also give Jeethu ample time to complete the script and make it a tight one.

Jeethu Joseph had already two other projects which he had committed earlier which are a prithviraj film and another one will be a women centric film and Kavya Madhavan said to be the choice of Jeethu to play the lead role in that film. Both are in the writing stages and jeethu had to complete those first before he goes to the writing of the Mohanlal film. Both Mohanlal and Jeethu knows that people had beyond the world expectations on them after the unbelievable reception Drishyam had got and they are taking their time to come out with another special film to remember forever to mollywood film lovers and their fans.

But the most interesting part or the highlight of this project will be another one. That is the presence of Pranav Mohanlal who is the assistant director of Jeethu Joseph from Papanasham which was the Tamil version of Drishyam. And it is sure that Pranav Mohanlal will be assisting Jeethu in this upcoming film as well and on the way he will direct his father Mohanlal as per the instructions and perfect guidance of Jeethu Joseph. It will be for the first time that Pranav is working as an assistant director in a Mohanlal film. May be it will be a beginning of the Father-son team as actor-director pair which will give mollywood a lot of great films.
