Why there wouldn’t be a 100th day function for Mankatha


There will be no 100th day function for Mankatha, said Dayanidhi Alagiri, the producer of the film. He clarified that it is well-known that Ajith would not attend public functions and therefore he will not attend the function even if it is held.
Without the film’s hero, a 100th day function will not seem proper, said Dayanidhi Alagiri. Apart from Ajith’s principle not to attend public functions, the star is also not able to attend the function because he would be shooting for Billa 2 when Mankatha reaches its 100thday, say sources in Kollywood.

Can fans get Ajith to agree?


Producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri had said that there will be no 100th-day function for Mankatha because Ajith will not attend it. As a policy, the star never attends public functions and there is no point in organizing a function without the lead star, Dhayanidhi had said.
The producer has now said that if Ajith fans can get him to agree to participate in the 100th-day function, he will organize a grand function. Dhayanidhi added that if only Ajith agrees to grace the event he would arrange for a function that would be the grandest in the Tamil film industry so far!

Vijay's "Thupaakki" in trouble

Although title for the Vijay - A R Murugadoss upcoming film is decided as Thupaakki, it seems the same title will see some trouble in Telugu. The movie is a bilingual and according to sources close to the director, the title Thupaakki is already registered with the Telugu Films Chamber by Jinka Harish Babu.

Also, it seems Jinka Harish Babu is unwilling to part with the title as his movie is already underway. The movie focuses on terrorism and Harish wants the title that somewhat describes the storyline. While there are no immediate announcements from the Murugadoss stable about the title trouble, it's likely that Murugadoss will want to buy out Thupaakki from Harish.
