Naadaga Medai: Kalidas Jayaram likely to play the lead in Dhuruvangal 16 fame Karthick Naren’s next!

23-year-old filmmaker Karthick Naren took the whole South Indian industry by surprise with his debut film ‘Dhuruvangal 16’. The whodunnit thriller starring Rahman emerged as a sleeper hit and won rave reviews from the critics as well. The youngster is now making rapid strides as he has already finished his second and announced his next. His second movie ‘Naragasooran’, a multi-starrer featuring Arvind Swamy, Indrajith, Sriya and Sundeep is currently in the final stages of post-production.

Last day, Karthick took to his Twitter space to unveil the title of his new movie. Titled as ‘Naadaga Medai’, this upcoming movie is a story of two youngsters. According to the director, it is a take on the modern day society from the perspective of two youth. He has scripted the movie based on his real life experiences.

Eventhough Karthick has remained tight-lipped about the cast, reports suggest that Kalidas Jayaram and Gautham Karthick are being considered for the lead roles. Veteran actors Rahman and Parthiban will also be seen in prominent roles. An official announcement regarding the cast is expected to be made very soon.

Kalidas made his Tamil debut in 2016 with the comic caper ‘Meenkuzhambum Manpaanayum’. His movie ‘Oru Pakka Kathai’ has been shelved for sometime now after issues with the censor board. His long delayed Malayalam movie ‘Poomaram’ is finally releasing on March 9. If Kalidas manages to bag the lead role in Karthick’s movie, it will certainly be a big break for him.

For Naadaga Medai, Karthick has retained almost the same set of technicians from his previous movies. Sujith Sarang will be wielding the camera and Sreejith Sarang is in charge of the edits. Ron Ethan Yohaan is the composer. The movie will be funded by Karthick’s own production house Knight Nostalgia Filmotainment.

Dhanush to star in the Tamil remake of Akshay Kumar’s Padman?

Dhanush to star in the Tamil remake of Akshay Kumar’s Padman?

Akshay Kumar’s latest release PadMan is doing great bussiness at the box office. The movie has been getting highly positive reviews by the critics received and the common audience. Directed by Balki, Padman is inspired from the real life of Arunachalam Muruganantham, a Tamil social activist who made low cost sanitary pads.

Akshay Kumar played Arunachalam’s role but the movie was set in Madhya Pradesh. The makers chose MP as the location as they felt the need to adress such a critical issue was more relevant in a backward state. The real life Padman Arunachalam was asked by many about why he let the movie to be made in Hindi and not in his own language.

Arunachalam felt that the story and its message would reach to more people only if it was made in Bollywood. Akshay Kumar is a big star and the movie naturally reached out to a wide audience.

Recently, there were reports about Padman getting remade in other languages. Talks are going on to remake it in Tamil, Telugu and Kannada, but nothing has been finalized yet. Certain reports suggest that Dhanush is being considered to star in the Tamil version.

Recently, in an interview Arunachalam was asked about who he feels suitable to play his character in Tamil version. He said, “I think Dhanush would be apt to do the role. I would love to see him play the lead role if the film has a Tamil version.”

It will be very interesting if such a remake really materializes. Like Akshay, Dhanush is also a fabulous performer and he will try to give his best for the movie.

His terrific performance in the movie opened gates to a slew of offers and he was soon part of several big projects. Chekka Chivantha Vaanam is actually his second Tamil movie. He is making his Tamil debut with the sequel of Vishal’s superhit movie Sandakozhi, in which he is playing one of the villains. He is expected to join Mani Ratnam’s camp next month.
