Mankatha rough cut is ready

Dhayanidhi Alagiri of Cloud Nine and producer of Ajith's Venkat Prabhu directed Mankatha is gung-ho about the film.

Alagiri junior recently saw a rough cut of the film and commented on his social networking site- "Mankatha has come out really well. The Interval block is a big hit. I've never seen Ajith saar in this kind of a role. Never! Outstanding performance!"

He also made it clear that Mankatha team is not delaying the audio release purposely but it is taking time.

Aascar to market Velayudham directly

Aascar Films V Ravichandran, the producer of Vijay's Velayudham has decided to release it directly.

The entire shoot of the film is over, except for a song which will be shot in a foreign location.

The budget of Velayudham which was initially said to be Rs 35 Crore has gone haywire. Now the film when it reaches the theatres will cost Rs 45 Crore due to various factors like more number of shooting days, production delays and increased special effects and graphics cost.

The film has been sold only Indian domestic only Kerala and Karnataka.

No distributor in TN is willing to touch it due to high cost. There are no big buyers in Tamil cinema after the recent political change of guard.

The best way out for Aascar films is to release directly to the theatres , on MG or deposit basis. Aascar Ravi has done it successfully when he made biggies like Dasavatharam and Anniyan.

If all goes well, Vijay fans can look forward to Velayudham release in the last week of August.

Jeeva-Jayam Ravi bond big time

There is some serious male-bonding happening between Jiiva and Jayam Ravi.

In fact, they share such a close bond that both leave no stone unturned to be present at functions and ceremonies concerning the other.

In style with that practice, Jayam Ravi turned up for the audio launch of Rowthiram, which features Jiiva and Shriya Saran in the lead.

What he spoke on the occasion gave those gathered there an idea of the friendship that the two share.

Said Jayam Ravi, "Jiiva and I have been good friends for a very long time. In fact, the maximum number of functions that I have attended apart from those of my own family is that of Jiiva’s family. Both of us make it a point to attend each others family and film functions. But recently he did something which I cannot forget and something which touched my heart. I had invited him for my son's birthday party. Jiiva said he would be unable to make it but much to my surprise his wife Supriya turned up with their nine-month-old baby for the event. I had not allowed my child to be taken anywhere outside my home until he turned a year. But here was Jiiva who had allowed his child to be brought to my home even before he had completed one. I was touched."

Rememeber that the two buddies are also gearing up to work together in a film that is to be directed by S P Jananathan of Peraanmai fame.
