7Aum Arivu Vs RA.ONE vs Velayutham; Who is the Winner?

All theaters in Kochi witnessed a massive rush on Wednesday, as the much-hyped Shah Rukh Khan, Suriya and Vijay films finally hit screens. At the end of the day, certain trends are emerging. It appears that the response to 'RA. One' and '7 Aum Arivu' are quite mixed at this point. The reviews too have been lukewarm.

Apart from the two multiplexes, the highly anticipated movies were released in more than two theatres in the city. '7 Aum Arivu' was released in Shenoys, Little Shenoys and Padma theatres.

Meanwhile 'RA.One' was screened at Sreedhar, Savitha and Sangeetha. 'Velayudham' was premiered at two huge capacity theatres Sarita and Kavitha. 'RA.One', a do-or-die deal for Shah Rukh, given that over 175 crores have been invested in it, does not seem to have clicked in a big way. The film had a very good opening, but many feel that the story is a disappointment, while the technical parts stand out.

"RA.One is technically perfect but after the first half, it feels like watching a video game", says Rajesh S, who is working in an MNC. There is no twist in the story since the central theme comes before intermission. The response was somewhat similar for '7Aum Arivu' as well since the film does not appear to have met the high expectation.

"The story line is novel and different but it is not as good as we thought it would be. We expected more from the Suriya- A R Muragadoss team. I will say the film is definitely above average but a certain spark is missing in the film," says Nujum Noohu, an engineering student.

Even after spending Rs 84 crore, the graphics lack in quality which can be a setback for the whole movie, adds Nujum. But Noel K J of Maharaja's does not have the same opinion about '7 Aum Arivu'.

"Suriya's movie is a complete package with action, comedy, drama, romance and songs. Not even for a minute does the audience get bored", he says.

The action sequences have a Hollywood touch. The 'Ghajani' director has done justice to '7 Aum Arivu', he adds. Vijay's 'Velayudham', which had less hype compared to the other two, appears to have satisfied his fans adequately. The film, a complete Vijay show throughout, with rollicking comedy scenes and mind-blowing action sequences, seems to have worked with the audience.

"Ilaya Dalapati rules always. Vijay played a romantic hero in 'Kavalan', and now he is back in form doing what he does best, being the real mass hero. The introduction song was a visual treat", says Prashanth S, a diehard fan of Vijay.

As of now, it looks like the going could be slightly tough for SRK and Suriya, but given enough time, they might just continue to rake in some more moolah.

'At first meeting I was NOT happy with Vijay' - Gautham Menon

We all know that Gautham Menon doesn’t hear to the opinions of any actors. Be it Kamal Haasan or the young league of actors like Jiiva and Silambarasan, he ritually sticks to his own ideas and doesn’t give ears to his actors, who insist to make some changes in the script.

Shedding lights on his upcoming film ‘Yohan: Adhyayam Ondru’ starring Vijay in lead role, the director says, “So simple! My first meet with Vijay didn't work out so well, during the next two visits the was a difference in our opinions. On our last visit both of us were eager to do a film with together. Yohan will be an International Tamil film. Vijay will play and international agent in this movie. This is the first time both of us are doing a film in this genre. After going for an foreign assignment, the two months experiences of Yohan is the first part. After this, for each two year period, I would like to take the subsequent parts aka 'Adhyayam's' !

Who knows.. This might even end up as a series. The action scenes will perfectly suit Vijay. A.R. Rahman was ready to be the M.D. once I told him the story.

'Yohan' will stun you all!” 

Velayutham entertains more than 7aum Arivu

In spite of other big releases, Velayudham has taken a front seat winning the Diwali race and producer Aascar Ravichandran managed to get bigger and more screens across Tamil Nadu and other areas for his Diwali release ‘Velayutham’. Released on October 25, the film has lived up to the expectations of not just Vijay fans, but has attracted the family audiences.

The audiences have acclaimed the film as the best entertainer while ‘7 Aum Arivu’ has got mixed reviews. The film ‘7 Aum Arivu’ didn’t manage to gain the interests of all group of audiences for its flimsy script and sluggish moments in screenplay. The film has been ennobled as the best entertainment for its mixture of fun, frolic, action, sentiments, etc…

With a longer weekend still going on, the theatre owners and exhibitors have demanded for additional prints of the film. Across the states of Kerala and Karnataka, the fans circle for Vijay has increased than the usual limits. The repeat audiences in Kerala are rushing into the theatres to watch it again and again.

But Velayudham has won the interests of critics and audiences across all centres as well. Director Raja and Vijay have thanked all the media channels and audiences for making the film more successful. 

EXCLUSIVE: Velayudham Defeats 7aum Arivu.!!

Kollywood saw a massive clash between two big movies that were released during Diwali. One was the much-hyped AR Murugadoss’s 7aam Arivu and the other, Jeyam Raja’s Velayudham.
With two popular heroes of Kollywood — Suriya and Vijay — battling it out on this festive occasion, it was rather surprising to learn who actually won the hearts of the masses this time.

7aam Arivu, produced by Udayanidhi Stalin’s Red Giant Films, saw massive publicity that ran for nearly a month before its release. Expectations too were soaring high for this film as the director who gave a runaway hit like Ghajini (both in Hindi and Tamil) was expected to deliver triple the success for this one.

Adding to the hype was Suriya’s role as Bodhidharma (a Buddhist monk) and Shruti Haasan debut in Tamil cinema.

On the other hand, Vijay’s Velayudham was promoted at a mediocre scale in and around Tamil Nadu. With Vijay playing the role of a super-hero for the first time in his career, this one too created a lot of buzz before its release.

However, post the release, Velayudham’s stupendous victory has come as a rather surprising one. With critics and audiences voting for Vijay’s super-hero flick over Suriya’s 7aam Arivu, the results have proved to be a shocker.

What really turned the tables? Says a source, “Before the release of these two movies, it seemed clear that 7aam Arivu would win over Velayudham. The film’s massive promotional activities, claiming it as ‘something unseen’, proved to be a wrong tactic, once the film was released. With a lot of commercial elements in the film and scripting errors, people were let down by the Suriya-Murugadoss’s combination.”

As a matter of fact, Velayudham which was released in comparatively lesser number of theatres across the country, has raked in more than 7aam Arivu in the first week of its theatrical release. “Velayudham was promoted as an out-and-out commercial entertainer and did surprise the audiences when it was released. Though it had lesser publicity compared to the former, it has proven to be the ultimate winner. And while both the movies enjoyed a massive opening, the rather critical reviews let 7aam Arivu down,” adds the source. For films that rely only on promotional activities, the clear win of Velayudham proves to be a resounding lesson.

Velayutham success Party @ Vijay's House.!

Vijay - Shankar's Nanban songs from December

Shankar's forthcoming multi-starrer featuring Vijay, Jiiva, Srikanth and Ileana will see an audio release this December and will have five songs like its original, '3 Idiots'. The music for 'Nanban' has been composed by Harris Jayaraj who is currently busy with his music tour, On The Edge.
The shooting has been wrapped as earlier reported and currently the dubbing work for the major portions has been completed as well.

The posters of 'Nanban' all confirm that the movie will see a Pongal 2012 release and the creative designs are unique by themselves, apt with the film's plot as the trio will be seen as college students and Sathyaraj as a taskmaster for a college head. '3 Idiots' by itself has been inspired from Chetan Bhagat's novel 'Five Point Someone'.

ஏழாம் அறிவில் வரும் போதிதர்மர் தமிழரே கிடையாது. கிளம்பும் புது பூதம்.!!

காஞ்சிபுரத்தில் இருந்து போதி தர்மர், சீனாவுக்கு சென்று தற்பாதுகாப்பு கலைகளை பரப்பினார் என்று ஏழாம் அறிவு சினிமா படம் வெளி வந்துள்ளது. ஆனால் போதி தர்மர் தமிழரே கிடையாது என்று கண்டன போஸ்டர்களை சென்னை முழுவதும் ஒட்டியுள்ளனர் நாகர் சேனை அமைப்பை சேர்ந்தவர்கள்.
இதுகுறித்து அந்த அமைப்பினர் செய்தி தொடர்பாளர் பரஞ்சோதி பாண்டியனிடம் பேசியபோது, ‘7ம் அறிவு படம் வெளியானதும் ஒவ்வொரு தமிழனும் கர்வத்துடன் நடப்பான் என்று அந்த படத்தின் இயக்குனர் முருகதாஸ் பேட்டியளித்துள்ளார். ஆனால் போதி தர்மர் தமிழனே கிடையாது.
அவரை காஞ்சிபுரத்தை சேர்ந்த பல்லவ இளவரசர் என்று படத்தில் கூறியுள்ளனர். ஆனால் உண்மையில் போதி தர்மர் களப்பிரர் மன்னர் பரம்பரையை சேர்ந்தவர். களப்பிரர் கர்நாடகா மாநிலம் பெல்லாரி மற்றம் ஆந்திராவில் கடப்பா ஆகிய இடங்களில் இருந்து தமிழகத்துக்கு வந்தவர்கள்.
முருகதாஸ் சொன்னது போல், போதி தர்மர் பல்லவ பரம்பரையாக இருந்தாலும், பல்லவரும் தமிழர் கிடையாது. ஆந்திர மாநிலம் கடப்பாவில் இருந்து சிம்ம விஷ்னு என்பவர் தலைமையில் பல்லவர்கள் வந்தனர். இவர்கள் களப்பிரர் ஆட்சிக்கு கீழ் சிற்றரசர்களாகவும்,
தளபதியாகும் இருந்தனர். பின்னர் சிவ கந்த வர்மன், கந்த வர்மன் 1, 2,3, என்றும் ஆட்சி செய்தனர். இதில் மகேந்திர வர்மன் மகாபலிபுரத்தை உருவாக்கினான். அவனுக்கு பின்னால் வந்த நரசிம்ம வர்மன் தமிழகம் முழுவதும் நாடுகளை பிடித்து ஆட்சி செய்துள்ளான்.
எனவே போதி தர்மன் என்பவர் பல்லவராக சொன்னாலும், அவரும் தமிழர் கிடையாது.
போதி தர்மரை சீனாவில் 27வது புத்தராக வணங்கப்படுபவர். நோபாளத்தில் பிறந்து பீகாரில் வாழ்ந்த புத்தரை பீகார்காரன் என்று குறுகிய வட்டத்துக்கு கொண்டு வருவதை ஏற்பார்களா?
அதுபோல போதி தர்மர் காஞ்சிபுரத்தை சேர்ந்தவர் என்பதற்காக அவரை தமிழர் என்று சொல்ல முடியாது. களப்பிரர் காலம் 250 முதல் 600 வரையாகும். களப்பிரர் காலத்தை வரலாற்று ஆசிரியர்கள் இருண்ட காலம் என்கின்றனர்.
525ம் ஆண்டு சீனாவை நோக்கி போதி தர்மர் சென்றார். அந்த காலக்கட்டத்தில் களப்பிரர் ஆட்சி வீழ்ச்சியடைய தொடங்கி விட்டது. இதற்கு காரணம், அசோகரின் கொள்ளு பேரனை கொலை செய்து புஸ்யமித்திரன் என்ற தளபதி ஆட்சியை பிடித்தான். இவன் வடமாநிலங்களில், பவுத்தர்களின் தலையை கொண்டு வந்தார் 10 ஆயிரம் தங்ககாசுகள் பரிசாக வழங்கினான்.
இதனால் பவுளத்தர்கள், சமணர்கள் என்று பலர் தென்பகுதிக்கு ஓடி வந்தனர். 6ம் நுõற்றாண்டில் சைவ மத எழுச்சி ஏற்பட்டது. இதில், ‘மதுரையில் 9 ஆயிரம் பவுத்தர்கள், திருநெல்வேலியில் 16 ஆயிரம் பவுத்தர்கள், திருவத்திபுரம் (செய்யாறு) 15 ஆயிரம்பவுத்தர்கள் கழு மரம் ஏற்றி படுகொலை செய்யப்பட்டனர்.
பவுத்தம், ஜைனர்கள் தமிழகத்துக்கு வந்த பின்னரே, சாதி பாகுபாடு ஏற்பட்டது. அதுவரை சேரி என்ற பகுதியே கிடையாது. தலித்துக்கள் எல்லாரும் பவுத்த மதத்தை சேர்ந்தவர்கள். இவர்கள் பவுத்தர்களை சைவர்கள் கொலை செய்யும்போது, அமைதியாக இருந்து விட்டனர். இவர்களை ஒதுக்கி, தீண்டதகாதவர் என்றாக்கி விட்டனர்.
பவுத்தம் மதம் மூலம் தான் பள்ளி வந்தது. பள்ளிக்கு செல்பவன் பள்ளன் ஆனான். பவுத்த மத பிரசாரத்தை பறைசாற்றியவன் பறையன் ஆனான். சக்கிளியர் என்கிறார்களே, அவர்கள் எல்லாரும் சாக்கியலிச்சாவியர் என்ற புத்தர் பரம்பரையாவர். இந்த புத்தரின் மரபணு இந்த மக்களின் உடலில் இன்றும் இருப்பதால்தான், மலை போன்று மலம் கிடந்தாலும் அருவருப்பு இல்லாமல் அதை சுத்தம் ö சய்கின்றனர். இவர்களது மரபணுக்களை ஆய்வுச் செய்தால், உண்மை தெரியும்.
இதற்கிடையில் களப்பிரர் ஆட்சி வீழ்ச்சியடைய தொடங்கியபோது, 525ம் ஆண்டு சீனா நோக்கி போதி தர்மர் சென்றார். இவர் மட்டுமல்ல தென்காசியில் இருந்து வஞ்சர போதியும் சீனா சென்றார். இவர் மந்திராயம், தந்திராயத்தை அங்கு கற்றுக் கொடுத்தார். காஞ்சிபுரத்தில் இருந்து தர்மபாலர் என்பவர் நாகலாந்தா பல்கலைக்கழகத்தில் வாழ்நாள் முதல்வராக பணியாற்றியுள்ளார். இவர்தான் யுவான்சூவானை சந்தித்து பேசியவர்.

போதி தர்மர் யார் என்று தெரிய வேண்டும் என்றால், மயிலை சினி வேங்கடசாமி எழுதிய பவுத்தமும் தமிழரும், களப்பிரர் காலத்தில் தமிழகம் என்ற புத்தகத்தை படித்தாலே தெரிந்து விடும்.
இப்படி வரலாறு இருக்க, போதி தர்மர் தமிழர் என்று சித்தரித்து படம் எடுத்து இருப்பது, பணத்துக்காகத்தான். இவர்கள் வரலாறு தெரியாமல் இப்படி திரித்து கூறுவதை தவறு. தமிழர்களின் உணர்ச்சியை துõண்டி விட்டு, லாபம் சப்பாதிக்கப் பார்க்கின்றனர்.
இப்படி மூச்சு விடாமல் சொல்லி முடித்தார் பரஞ்சோதி பாண்டியன்.
இந்த வரலாற்று கண்டனம் தெரிவித்துள்ள பரஞசோதி பாண்டியனின் குற்றச்சாட்டு குறித்து முருகதாசை தொடர்புக் கொண்டபோது, அவரை பிடிக்க முடியவில்லை. எது எப்படியோ போதி தர்மர் தமிழர்தான் என்பது வரலாற்று சான்றுடன் விளக்குவாரா முருகதாஸ்? என்பதுதான் எல்லாருடைய கேள்வியாக இருக்கும்.
போதி தர்மர் யார்... ? எல்லாருயை 7வது அறிவும் வேலை செய்தால்தான் தெரியும்.

Vijay appears as Rajini & Kamal

There is a scene in 'Nanban', the Shankar-directed Tamil remake of Bollywood blockbuster '3 Idiots', which would make the lovers of Tamil cinema to jump with joy. And we have interesting details about it.

"In a song sequence, Vijay would appear in the get-ups made by top stars of Kollywood, and this includes Superstar Rajinikanth and Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan. This is a joint effort by Shankar and vijay to pay tributes to the veterans," say sources in the know.

"Vijay will appear in the 'Enthiran' robot get-up of Rajini and 'Indian' looks of Kamal. This will be the highlight of the song, in which the Ilayathalapathy will be seen in other interesting get-ups too," the sources further say.

Remember Shankar, who directed 'Sivaji The Boss' with Rajinikanth, made the Superstar imitate MGR, Sivaji Ganesan and Kamal Haasan in the lead scene to the 'Adhiradikaran...' song. It looks like he is now planning something similar with Vijay.

Vijay vs Danush again for 2012 Pongal

This isn’t something new, but a process over the years. Perhaps, it’s a mere coincidence as the films of Vijay and Dhanush have clashed several times in the box office, especially for the festive occasion of Pongal.
Three years back, it was Villu Vs Padikadhavan that was released on January 14. However both the films received lukewarm response disappointing the fans.

This year 2011, it was Aadukalam and Kaavalan that won critical acclaims and yielded best results for producers as well.

The forthcoming Pongal is not gonna be an exception as the actors will continue to clash with their films. If what we heard from the trade circles is believed to be true then Dhanush’s upcoming movie ‘3’ directed by his wife Aishwarya will hit screens on January 14, 2012. Shankar’s ‘Nanban’ starring Vijay, Jeeva and Srikanth is already confirmed for the same occasion as the paper ads have already confirmed it as ‘Pongal is Well’.

Ilayathalapathy Vijay to host ‘Koteeswaran’

Vijay is high on his celebrations as his Diwali release ‘Velayutham’ has taken a great leap spinning profits in box office.
With the actor making a promising comeback, it’s a big celebration for his fans as well and it’s not gonna end as his projects lined up for 2012-13 is yet more exciting. Shankar’s ‘Nanban’, Gautham Menon’s ‘Yohan: Adhyayam Ondru’ and A R Murugadoss’ untitled film. What else does a fan of Ilayathalapathy need more than these reasons to rejoice?

Don’t give a ‘Dot’ to your excitements for a special buzz has created more sensation in the circles now. Yup! It’s heard that Vijay has been approached to host the show ‘Koteeswaran’, which is an adaptation of famous TV show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepathi’. More seasons have occurred and it’s a still big sensation in Indian small screen. While Amitabh Bachchan is the prominent host in most of the seasons, Shah Rukh Khan stepped into his shoes for a particular season. A topmost satellite Tamil channel had replicated the pattern for a show titled ‘Koteeswaran’ hosted by Sarath Kumar, which didn’t yield better results.

It is heard that Vijay has been paid a whooping amount and the preproduction works are going. Well, nothing is official until the announcements are heard from the horses’ mouth.

Suriya - Karthi to act together for Hari's next

Super Hit film Director Hari’s latest release “Venghai” featuring Dhanush and Tamannah is running with good response. Following that, Hari is involved in the works of his next film. As said earlier, he is readying a story for Surya. This is a script about 2 Brothers. He has commenced the discussion works of this film in Kodaikanal, with his Assistant Directors. This film is based on story about 2 Brothers for the whole length of the film. So, there are speculations that Karthi would be roped in with Surya for this film. Even before the Script is finalized, talks of Surya-Karthi being jointly featured in a single film has commenced.

Vijay is Kollywood James Bond - Gautham Menon

Gautham Menon is doing four projects at a time - 'Neethane En Ponvasantham', which he is simultaneously making in three languages (Tamil, Telugu and Hindi), and the Hindi remake of 'Vinnaithandi Varuvaya', titled 'Ek Dhivana Dha'.

After completing these films, he will move on to 'Yohan Adhyayam Ondru', his first venture with Vijay. "Some rumour mills have it that Gautham Menon is toying with the idea of coming out with a movie every two years in this series, like Yohan Adhyayam Irandu and Yohan Adhyayam Moondru but the director has remained tight-lipped about these.

"Vijay plays an international agent in this flick," Gautham Menon says and adds: "Yohan Adhyayam Ondru will deal with one of the assignments he does in a foreign country. It will chronicle two months of the protagonist's life."

On what made him to join hands with the Ilayathalapathy Vijay, Gautham Menon says, "We both wanted to work together for a long time, but things didn't take shape. This time we were sure not to miss the opportunity and made an announcement on Yohan."

Yohan – Adhyayam Ondru is set in New York and will move on to different countries with each sequel, elaborated Gautham. This indicates that Vijay may be the next James Bond of the Tamil film industry. The film will commence during the mid 2012, confirmed Gautham.

K V Anand has assured that Maatran’s climax will be one of the finest climaxes that tamil cinema would ever see.Maatran is an action thriller that is expected to hit the screens this summer.Looks like Surya fans will have a visual treat this summer.

In spite of other big releases, producer Aascar Ravichandran managed to get bigger and more screens across Tamil Nadu and other areas for his Diwali release ‘Velayutham’. Released on October 25, the film has lived up to the expectations of not just Vijay fans, but has attracted the family audiences.
With a longer weekend still going on, the theatre owners and exhibitors have demanded for additional prints of the film. Across the states of Kerala and Karnataka, the fans circle for Vijay has increased than the usual limits. The repeat audiences in Kerala are rushing into the theatres to watch it again and again.

Well, it’s worth mentioning that Kerala audiences have welcomed even his films like ‘Sura’ and ‘Velayutham’ has become a huge hit over there.

Ilayathalapathy Vijay has thanked his fans for extending their support and making the film successful.

RA.ONE MOVIE-AN OVERVIEW

Ra One is easily the biggest movie of the year and thanks to the tremendous and well thought off marketing push by Red Chillies and Eros International, it has turned into an event film. Shahrukh's extremely high budgeted movie has launched a social game, a PS3 game, came out with graphic novels, merchandises, innumerable marketing tie ups, youtube tie up and the movie is going to be released in India in 3 languages simultaneously with more than 4000 prints all over the world. Can it get bigger than this? Well yes.  The King of Bollywood - Shahrukh made the movie even bigger by pulling in Amitabh to do the narration and then did the impossible - he brought in Superstar Rajinikanth to act in a small scene. Well should we say more? The tickets vanished from the ticket counters in minutes and today is the judgement day. Can Ra.One mesmerize you? Can Ra One change the game?  Can Ra.One take Indian film to the international level, something that Endhiran promised, but failed to do? The answer to all these questions is just around the corner ... And as the theatre starts getting dark and the screen in front brightens we expect nothing short of magic on screen.

And Magic it was. Ra.One shows reflections of several movies but it is mainly inspired by Terminator 2- Judgement Day. It has also taken few pointers from Iron Man(The core design), Astro Boy(the blue core red core), Endhiran(few shots) etc. And still, the film stands on its own merits which is the biggest plus for the movie and the director Anubhav Sinha.

Sekar Subramanium, a genius game developer's desperate attempt to impress his son leads him to create a game where the villain Ra.One is more powerful than the hero. At the same time, his company is working on a program to remove the wall that separates the virtual world from the real. Ra.One utilizes this program to come to life and all hell breaks loose!

He wants to kill the only person who has beaten him in the game. Who is this one man? Is it Shahrukh? Can Shahrukh vanquish the super villain? To know the answer you will have to wait for at least a week to see it in the theatres, if you haven't booked your tickets already.

The director did not have an impressive track record even though he has given 2 hits. But even those have got mainly average to bad reviews. After his last debacle ’Cash’ no one expected him to come out with a project of such magnitude, especially with Shahrukh Khan. But this time around, he has completely impressed with his direction. The movie is aimed at children and young adults while ensuring that even the elders can enjoy. So you will have to expect some kiddish scenes too.

The movie has no problem with the pacing as it is consistently fast. The Climax however could have been more impressive. The characterization of Ra.One could have been made more evil and terrorizing to heighten the tension and make the film gripping. The mystery as to what he would do next could have kept the audience at the edge of their seats. Ra.one’s ability to control human brain seemed too far fetched and could have been avoided.

Shahrukh does struggle with his Tamil, but is exceptional as Sekar and brilliant as G-One. His performance as a human and a virtual superhuman proves his prowess as an actor. Kareena has evolved wonderfully as an actor. She sizzles on screen especially in the world famous ‘Chhamak Chhallo’ track. She looks beautiful and delivers her role with élan showing how competent an actor she is. Armaan Verma is a delight to watch as Sekar’s kid. Arjun Rampal enters the scene in the second half and plays a menacing Ra.One quite well. The special appearances by Sanjay dutt and Priyanka Chopra are ok. The much talked about Chitti's (Rajnikant in Endhiran) appearance could have been much much better. However, Rajni’s appearance on screen received screams and cheering which reached maddening levels. The rest of the cast have little to do and they do impress.

Technically, Ra.One is by far India’s biggest and most expensive by the look of it. Cinematography by V. Manigandan is a feast to the eyes and the action swquences alone are shot by the legendry - Nicolo Pecorrini which has come out brilliantly. The animation and graphics compare to the best of Hollywood. The film actually leaves you wondering as to what is graphics and what is real. While it is good in the first half, the graphics is taken to an all new level in the second half. This film has clearly set a very high bar for computer graphics in Indian film Industry. The action sequences are impeccable. Whether it is the car chase sequence, G-One's introduction, Train sequence or the climax, the execution is of international level.  Sabu Cyril's art direction should be lauded as the ace art director makes every single set picture perfect. Which is real? Which is a set? Which is graphics? You never know. Did you think the train involved in the pre-climax action scene was a real train? Well, think again.  Music has already received rave reviews especially with 'Dil dara', Akon’s 'criminal' and 'chamak chalo' have caught on like wild fire. The picturisation elevates the song experience.

Overall it is s a paisa vasool. Take your kids and family for this event film and become a kid and enjoy the fun. Technically the movie does touch international standards but doesnt boast of an exceptional or unique storyline to impress international junta but its a Indian film which every Indian should be proud off. Expect every record in the record book re-written.


Verdict: Blockbuster of epic proportion

7AUM ARIVU MOVIE-AN OVERVIEW

The big Diwali bonanza is here in theatres. The team that gave us the unforgettable Ghajini is back with 7 Aum Arivu. A.R.Murugadoss, Suriya and Harris Jeyaraj have teamed up and the expectations have hit an all time high for a Suriya starrer, what with the pre-release publicity and hit music. So, what is 7 Aum Arivu all about?

Well, everyone knows the answer to that, at least partially. Yes, anyone who follows Tamil cinema would have searched up the name Bodhidharman at least once on the internet over the past month. The team of 7 Aum Arivu digs into history to introduce us to this iconic (in China) Pallava prince who is claimed to be the founder or one of the first masters of Shaolin Kung Fu. The film takes off from the 5^th century Pallava kingdom as the prince Bodhidharma, acclaimed for his proficiency in all arts, crafts, armoury and medicine, leaves for China. We are told about how he became a legend in China, spreading his immense knowledge to help them out of many a crisis.

But, the main plot brings us to present day Chennai. A young scientist looking to do some ground breaking research realizes that her work might be getting in the way of someone else’s plan and an unsuspecting simpleton who is a circus artiste by profession also unwittingly becomes part of this. And then, there is a deadly agent who has motives that are much bigger than just science or research. Behind all this is a huge conspiracy. What is the conspiracy and why is a scientist being hounded and what does a simple circus artiste have to do with all of this? Watch 7 Aum Arivu to find out.

The first few minutes of 7 Aum Arivu are magnificent in every sense of word. Be it the  majesty of the Pallava kingdom, the authenticity of a period that dates 1600 years back or the aristocracy of Suriya as the Pallava prince, every frame holds all your attention. So, does the brief but powerful sequence in China. The reason behind Bodhidharma becoming an iconic figure for all the Chinese is effectively shown. Of course, we can see that the director is burdened by a very large account of Bodhidharma’s life (almost something of epic proportions) which have to be summed up in a 20 minute capsule. Therefore, he resorts to generous doses of voice overs which give a kind of semi-documentary effect to that particular portion. That, however, does not prevent the initial 20 minutes of the film from arresting your attention.

Cut to the present and that is where 7 Aum Arivu starts to show the first signs of tiredness. For a film that began with so much power and majesty, the script wears down the effect and makes it another entertainer with a couple of poorly placed songs and a romance track that seems to have little substance in it. You could get restless as you search for the central plot which, you are told at the beginning, is about some international conspiracy. Just when you believe that the plot is taking centre stage, there comes another song, further letting down the tempo of the first half. It is only at the fag end of a laborious 100 minutes that you are convinced that the central plot has finally arrived. You would think that the second half had to be a full throttle journey. That’s what the director has wanted, yes. But, here, Murugadoss hasn’t been able to pull it off with the success he is usually known for. Things do get interesting as more details about the conspiracy are revealed. The initial portions promise a race to the climax. Shortening the fight sequences could have helped the cause. Though the machinations of the conspiracy and the moves to counter it are intelligent, some aspects rob the entire script from being completely credible. One of these is the amount of powers that the lead antagonist is shown to possess; it borders on the realm of the unbelievable and when he exercises them constantly, scene after scene, it becomes a test of the patience of the viewer. Also, the director has taken generous scientific liberties in constructing his script. Nothing wrong with that, science fiction is a welcome addition to Indian cinema. But, once a scientific track is adopted, it must be seen through to the end. Instead, the script abandons the scientific credibility towards the fag end to give way to a commercial climax action sequence.

But, the film is not all about these flaws. There are strong bright spots which tilts the balance. With an impeccable body language as the stately prince and the ascetic monk, Suriya has turned in a committed and spirited performance yet again. He sure has put in a lot of hard work to get those Kung Fu moves right. Shruthi Haasan may not impress phenomenally with her Tamil debut, but she sure has acting in here genes! And, coincidentally, the film also deals with how abilities are carried forth through generations by genes. Johnny Tri Nguyen looks every bit the terminator, cold and lethal. Murugadoss has raised some very relevant messages through his movie. Some are spelt out clearly at various points in the film and the others are implied. These messages are sure ‘take homes’ for everyone. Also, the research he has undertaken to bring to light a person called Bodhidharma is truly praiseworthy; he has resurrected a piece of history.

7 Aum Arivu has some very strong technical aspects. The cinematography remains top notch throughout, you can see that every frame was carefully constructed, especially in the initial 20 minutes or so. Same can be said about the art too. The visual effects also are a treat to watch, except for a few instances in a fight sequence right in the heart of the city. Also congrats to the team for capturing so many shots in different spots of the city with originality. Harris Jeyaraj’s tunes have already delighted you, but do not expect the same in the movie as the songs have been placed at very unfortunate points in the script. Finally, the editing of the film could and should have been crisper; at a duration of above 3 hours, 7 Aum Arivu is a long drawn affair.

7 Aum Arivu which starts of majestically with support of a superior technical crew would have reigned supremacy, only if had not dwelled too much on insignificant romance, not pushing in 2-3 songs too many and leaving the entire central plot for the second half. 


Verdict: Technical finesse catering to commercial compulsions.

VELAYUDHAM MOVIE-AN OVERVIEW

Vijay is back to what he does best; mass entertainers, and what better time to unveil a mass entertainer than Diwali. With the music already a rage, the excitement was palpable as fans headed in droves to theatres on the festival of lights.

Velayudham is seen in many ways as a comeback to triumphant ways for Vijay. Yes, Kaavalan was a respite, but it is Velayudham that will more or less decide whether the tried and tested formula that have been followed for Vijay starrers for almost a decade can still hold the audience.

Lets make things clear first, Velayudham holds no surprises in the premise or the central conflict. It is not only something that is seen in a large percentage of commercial entertainers, it is also along lines that are very similar to quite a few earlier Vijay films. But, Vijay films have always been about his presence making things much more exciting than they appear to be in the script.

Velayudham deals with ‘one man saving the society from evil forces’ premise. Yes, we have seen it many times before. Here, the story is about how and why the man rises, how Velu becomes Velayudham. Once he has risen there is no looking back as he hunts down one bad man after the other, but that also earns him enemies who are nothing short of bloodsucking vampires. How does that affect his personal life and how he puts an end to what he began?

As you might guess, the seat of action is Chennai, cinema’s chosen city to portray all corrupt people in Tamil Nadu and the messiah is one who arrives from the village knowing nothing about the notoriety of the big bad city. Of course, he soon finds out and decides that it is better to react than be subdued. And, there is a generous dose of brother-sister sentiment thrown in.

Déjà vu anyone! Well, don’t mind that because Raja has woven a script that makes you forget all this and concentrate only on the screen. The first half is really a joyride, especially for Vijay fans as he is introduced as the fun loving, mischievous young man who will  go to any lengths to make his sister (Saranya Mohan) happy. Vijay is an absolute livewire, be it in the electric dance sequences or the enjoyable comic exchanges, first involving Parotta Suri and M.S.Bhaskar and later with the extremely effective Santhanam. Of course, the director has not failed to keep pushing the central plot ahead steadily to leave the interval intriguingly poised. The second half arrives with more of action than anything else. Yes, there is place for a bit of romance and also some cleverly placed comedy sequences late into the half, but on the whole action does dominate. Again, as we have seen repeatedly with commercial films, it is the overdose of the action element, especially projecting the hero as an unassailable superhuman that makes viewing a bit difficult. Velayudham too falls prey to the same errors, though not to the irrecoverable extent that many other movies have fallen. Raja intersperses high octane action with a couple of well placed songs (Molachu Moonu and Rathathin Ratham) and a very sentimental pre-climax portion to keep the audience from feeling action weary. But, the dominant feeling as the end credits start to roll is that a racy and intelligent climax (not that the one now is non-inttelligent) instead of the hero’s mass appeal and a preachy message would have made the movie much better.

Raja has done a fine job of mixing all the elements that go towards making a mass hero film, though he has lost the balance a bit in the last hour. His adeptness at placing comedy, romance, sentiment and the mandatory 5 songs into a script that has an alter-ego(istic) superhero should be commended. Nothing looks out of place, as we enjoy Santhanam’s wisecracks, Vijay’s dances and the brother-sister sequences. It is a while since we have seen Vijay excel in an emotionally heavy scene, Raja gets it out of the actor, in Velayudham. Also, placing 5 songs in a movie with none of them sticking out like a sore thumb is quite an achievement; though we should say that Vijay’s presence is a major factor in ensuring this.

Everyone in front of the camera has done a fine job. Vijay is sprightly, energetic and every bit the way we love to see him. He has experimented a bit with his look in the songs and they have come out well. Hansika is there in many scenes, but for most parts is a silent spectator, being called upon once in a while, mostly for glamour. She does not look out of place as a village girl, but the makers’ claim that she would remind  us of Khushboo is an overstatement. Genelia gets quite a significant part and looks convincing. A laugh is guaranteed every time Santhanam is on screen. Saranya Mohan too deserves a round of applause for being good enough to make the audience feel the depth of the siblings’ bond.

During most of the talkie portions, the camera strictly adheres to the requirements. Some well shot scenes within a train are worth mentioning. But, it is in the songs that the lens turns on the magic. At least a couple of them are visual treats. The capture of landscape for Molachu Moonu is delectable. Action too has been designed well. Though the movie is of the superhero type, the fights have not been taken to those levels; keeping them down to plausible levels (by commercial cinema standards). Dialogues too deliver the occasional punch and there is one particular reference to the rather benign ways of India.

Velayudham is a regular commercial entertainer which shows one man rising for the masses to right the wrongs in society. Yes, we have seen this kind of movie many times. But, a deftly written script keeps us engaged on screen for most parts until Raja gives into the temptations of adding extra mass appeal to a film that is already built around it. There are many scenes that instantly remind us of films seen earlier, but Viijay’s presence makes up for these glitches. There are also a few instances where the dialogues have political overtones (or are we imagining things, given the nature of the season). If the director had steered clear of these elements and concentrated on building a solid last hour which did not rely too heavily on the leading man’s charisma to carry it off, Velayudham would have been an even better end product.


Verdict: Regular mass entertainer spiced up by Vijay.

Verdict:

INTRODUCTION:
7 Aum Arivu is a sci-fi thriller in which Suriya plays a double role: a circus artist and Buddhist monk. Interestingly, Shruti Haasan will play the role of Subha Srinivasan, a scientist. The story is said to revolve around a time machine brought to India by a scientist (Shruti Haasan). The film is also being dubbed in Hindi and Telugu. Suriya will sport the look of a Buddhist monk for only 20 minutes in the film. He will appear as a Tamil prince from Kancheepuram who travels to China and becomes a well-respected monk there. Director Murugadoss has done a lot of research on the role and sources who have seen the raw version of the film are amazed with Suriya's performance.




Review:  
Director A.R. Murugadoss has been boasting of the fact that the film will make every Tamilian proud and it gradually raised everyone’s expectations upon the film. "SUNPICTURES" brings you the first exclusive movie review of the much awaited movie 7 AUM ARIVU.



STORY OF 7TH SENSE:
Set in backdrops of 1600 years ago, the film takes us straight to the history of Boddhidharman (Suriya), a legend from Kanchipuram, who spread the philosophy of Zen, became the guru of ‘Shaolin Temple’, a medical scientist and commenced the art of martial arts in China. What happens is that such a great history is hidden that in turn trivialized so many arts that took birth from Boddhidharman. Cut to present generation, a group of scientists including Subha (Shruthi Haasan) are into the project of recreating ‘Boddhidharman’ by the technology of ‘RECOMBINANT DNA TECHNOLOGY’ that is a method that includes the combination of DNAs from the lineage of warriors and versatile artist. Well, a circus artist Aravind (again played by Suriya), from the lineage of Boddhidharman becomes the source of evoking the legend. But soon we have an agent from China Dong Lee (Johny Tri Nguyen) arriving to start ‘Operation Red’ that will become a major disaster to India.

Everyone here becomes puzzled about ‘Operation Red’, but they’re sure it’s gonna be a terrible disaster for everyone. But much before they would find what it is all about, the antagonist has already successfully completed ‘Operation Red’

Will the young team able to break down the operation or succumb to the culmination?




PLUS OF THE MOVIE:
To start off with the basic concept of 7 Aum Arivu, it’s a very well known concept that every individual on this globe possesses the traits of his ancestors and there is nothing new about it.
 But what makes the film so special and quite unique is our hero ‘Boddhidharman’. The factual reports about him exhibited during the opening sequences of the film are colossal. 




MINUS OF THE MOVIE:
But what doesn’t interest the audiences is the screenplay that becomes dull at places and almost all the proceeding become predictable. To be precise, first half of the film has a moderate tempo and the conflict begins only during post-intermission.



We bring you some sequences from the film that deserves special appreciation…

1. The point where Johny tries to hypnotize Suriya and fails.
2. The dialogue pertaining to the death of a Tamil Liberation Leader and his culmination due to betrayal.
3. The action sequences on the highway road, where the entire public crowd starts attacking Suriya and Shruthi Haasan.


Suriya has done a tremendous hard work over his physique and his action sequences are very much perfect. But it’s Johny Tri Nguyen stealing the show with his marvelous stunts. In fact, the foreign actor wins applause with his introduction scene. Shruthi Haasan looks little nervous during most of the sequences, but delivers an impressive spell in songs, especially in ‘Yella Lama’, which carries a amazing cinematography. The onscreen chemistry between Suriya and Shruthi Haasan is completely missing.

Most of the songs are nowhere closer to the film 7aum Arivu. A.R. Murugadoss has purposely added the songs to add up length. Harris Jayaraj is losing his graph over the background score in his past few films and this one doesn’t become an exception. Most of the sequences have loud and noisy background score. Anthony’s editing is crisp, especially during the action sequences…
The initial sequences shot across Indo-Chinese regions are astounding – courtesy to Ravi K Chandran.

Except the fact that A.R. Murugadoss has attempted to upgrade the status of Tamilians, there is nothing special in screenplay and overall it’s an average show.
