Sreedhar Pillai ‏@sri50 1h
#Vishwaroopam2 . My sources r telling me it will b a solo release Nov/Dec 2 get max screens & Hindi version gets wide opening.

fed up with this Hindi version hype. Dasa, V1.. now V2... We are happy with the Tamil one.

[pushpak]

dhoom3 is releasing.

Diwali will have Krish-3.
Do not panic about other biggies in Hindi. Do not keep any hope with the Hindi version because with ZERO marketing even if it get s a solo release in Hindi, it will sink.
And who cares about Hindi !

[leosimha]

do we have the exact or approximate figures for the collection in hindi for VR-1?

yeah...not much to care about the hindi version but my worry is we won't get max. screens for VR-2 or it will get reduced due to dhoom3 release. is it not? if it is a solo release then it has to be continuous 4-6 weeks of run without any other major releases in between.

[Brianengab]

do we have the exact or approximate figures for the collection in hindi for VR-1?

around 14 cr. :) (in india only)

[leosimha]

around 14 cr. :) (in india only)

please post the number of screens for hindi version too. I guess it to be around 250.

[pushpak]

do we have the exact or approximate figures for the collection in hindi for VR-1?

Tell this to thalaivar. I simply can't understand his obsession with Hindi. Why so much effort for 12 Crs collection ? is he trying to make a statement there? No matter how hard he tries he'll never be accepted there.

While I agree on the fact that the hindi film industry does produce its share of craps, I feel one should not overlook the efforts of the likes of an Anurag kashyap, Dibaker Banerjee and a Vikramaditya Motwane. Good films are being produced as well and they are being appreciated. So I feel there is nothing wrong with Kamal going for the hindi audience. What irks me is his constant trial by fire with bi-linguals.For example, Dasavathaaram never wanrranted a hindi dub. It had its settings in the south. There was no point wasting time in promoting its dubbed version. I believe his work would be much more appreciated if Kamal comes up with a true blue hindi movie rather than a bi lingual. In that regard VR should have never been made in Tamil. I know that a huge amount of money was invested on the film. But people are making better films at a lesser cost and not a very star studded cast. Why not Kamal ? Heck he doesn't even need to act. Just do the writing. That would suffice.

Kamal has always been a sheep in sheep's clothing. These were the exact words of my father when I asked him to describe Kamal for me.

+1. 'they' are biased about south and i face it daily. the horrible kuppais like cx are crossing 200c just like that but vr being one of the path breaking movie is sidelined. south india and US/UK BO is enough for us.

I'm not fully sure that is the case. While its great to be top 3 in US/UK BO, Kamal is quite well known to the hindi audience. His old movies like ek-duje-ke-liyae, sadma, indian/hindustani, chachi-420 etc. put him firmly on people's minds as a class actor/entertainer. A lot of NI/Hindi folks thoroughly enjoyed Viswaroop with great reviews/reports coming in from as far as punjab, westbengal etc. Looks like the problem lies around distribution and theater procurement logistics, advertisement, marketing and so forth. I wanted to watch viswaroop myself but couldnt. It was not screened any place nearby where I live.

If Endiran featuring a south indian superstar can beat the crap out of top hindi film stars, Viswaroop could have also done it. Kamal himself mentioned in one of his interviews recently - I now realize that marketing is the most important thing in seeing success of a movie.

It just came a little late.

[Karikalen]

Kamal really needs someone to do the marketing and distribution for his movies at least in UK. The Hindi version of VR was never realeased in UK. The movie got a lot of publicity in the North Indian media. That was a real loss for the movie's box office performance in UK at least. With the INR touching 100 to a £1 at the moment, a properly marketed film would wonders at the BO provided it has the right ingredients. VR was such a film.

[leosimha]

I don't think he is releasing the movie in hindi for his recognition..he is already a well recognized actor all over the world....but it is the movie which he wants to do the talking all over the world....why not think of releasing the movie in foreign languages....even if the movie is released in hindi...all the hindi speaking audience want to see only tamil version in theatres...this is my feeling and my opinion based on the tamil movies which were dubbed to hindi and released in theatres....I used to watch many hindi audience i.e. the elite audience coming to watch tamil version....

guess the hindi version could be targeted at the non-elite audience...

in reply to irir..

the movie faced unfortunate ban affecting his personal life. but he kept his cool which nobody under sky could have done at that burning point. hats off to him.

i cant agree to ur words "ellaarkittayum poi - 'bahuth nandri hai' - solla vendiya nilama"..seeing the unjustified action of tn govt, they all by themselves came to support him. he didnt go to anyone. pl understand it before attributing erroneous interpretation. i strongly object to this "ellaar kaallayum vizhaadha kuraiyaa vizhundhu" pl take it back. +1 for "except his naivete when it comes to dealing with people" and "ellaathaiyum naaney seivaennu othha kaalla nikkaradhu - not very practical IMO"

"Heck he doesn't even need to act" Arvind anne..ennachu! we are blessed to have such natural actor. thats his identity. i cant stand the day when he stops acting. dont think u meant that.

[pushpak]

Nothing against Hindi. It is good to get released in Hindi and make good money (so that Kamal can make more and more movies).
But if he decides to do it, do it with well supported marketing. We should not expect a great run in Hindi with no promos in TV and other marketing strategies.
Robot, ABCD etc collected much more than Viswa.

[pushpak]

----> Ask 100 Kamal fans who are not big internet users. 99 will not know how great Kamal is as a screen play writer.
===> We need Kamal the actor :)

--> true Pushpak

Sometimes when he has a great story he can write the screenplay, need not be always. He should consider other screenwriters as well, If he is not satisfied with the screenplay of the others, he can discuss with them and ask for corrections.
Yes, We need Kamal the actor to try out something which is not explored... But for the future, he will be seriously considering himself as a Director.

Its just a rehash of serveral shots of the VR1 including the pegions.
The idea is to show how Omar uses religion (symbolically shown as a Islamic architecture building) to attack (again this building looks like a remote driven Robot, remote being Omar) US of A.

exactly !

UV - if you think the Khans et al really came fwd to support VR out of a genuine sense of support/appreciation, then perhaps you share Kamal's naiveté!

yellaam koduthu vaangal thaan - its all about lets support him now maybe that will help us in the future in some way or the other...

furthermore, did their support really affect the BO of the Hindi version of VR ?? i dont think so

Regarding Hindi release, reason it didn't get much screens, it [Hindi version], was sandwiched in-between two biggies [Race-2, came same day as Tamil version everywhere except for TN/Pondi/Gulf week prior (25-Jan)] and Special-26 [following week]. Hindi version did not get an overseas release and was strictly a NI release. So the 13-14C money made for Balaji [they were happy with the response/collections as per tweets, so no one's complaining.

This time, if they're targeting a solo release, my guess is to release on Nov-1st [Krrish 3 is apparently releasing on Diwali Day itself, Nov-3, which is a Sun.] Holiday-irunda, VR2 can be done. And if the content is strong, they will throng (with promotions of course.) Should VR-2 come on 1st Nov, that gives them about 3-4 weeks till Prabhu Deva's movie arrives [last week of Nov.] Plus, VR-2 budget would be 54C [compared to the monster 95C in Part 1]. Even if Hindi collects ~20C [DVD/Satelite/Audio rights non-withstanding], other versions are there to stand by.

So I strongly hope he gives the Hindi rights to UTV, Eros or Reliance. Eros has 'ErosNow', which releases streaming HD prints. They can support KH's DTH plan, should he try to implement it again. UTV is tied-up with Disney, so overseas, innum nariya screens varum.

UTV, EROS were quoting less for the VR, that's why he had gone with Balaji...

super!!

[Adox]

Actor Kamal Haasan who is busy wrapping up the final schedule of shooting of 'Vishwaroopam 2' in the city was spotted sporting the Indian Army uniform. The pictures of the star in uniform has set the fans buzzing, even though the star has acted in quite a few films as a police and army officer.

Though it was known that the actor plays the role of an army officer in the first part 'Vishwaroopam', he did not appear in the uniform as he was working undercover. Looks like the fans would get to see the star in his uniform qutie a lot in the sequel ' Vishwaroopam 2'. The film starring Kamal Haasan, Pooja Kumar, Andrea, Shekhar Kapur and Rahul Bose is set in India.

Kamal has wore the police uniform in films like Kaaki Sattai, Kuruthipunal, Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu among other and the army uniform in Aalavandhan and Manmadhan Ambu.

Alright!!

'விஸ்வரூபம் 2 ' விரைவில் திரையைத் தொடவேண்டும் என்று இறுதிக்கட்டப் பணிகளில் அதிதீவிரமாக கவனம் செலுத்திவருகிறார் கமல்.

இதற்கடுத்து லிங்குசாமியின் தயாரிப்பில் கமல் நடிப்பதாக சொல்லப்பட்டது.

தமிழ், தெலுங்கு, இந்தி என்று மூன்று மொழிகளில் லிங்குசாமி தயாரிக்கும் கமல் படத்தை இதுவரையில் ரமேஷ்அரவிந்த் இயக்குவதாகத்தான் இருந்தது.

இப்போது திடீர்மாற்றம். 'சார் நீங்களே டைரக்ஷனும் செய்துவிடுங்களேன் 'என்று லிங்கு அன்புக்கட்டளை போட சிரித்துக் கொண்டே ஓ.கே சொல்லி விட்டாராம், கமல்.

கமல் படத்துக்கு 'மூ'என்று ஒற்றை எழுத்தில் உற்சாகமாகப் பெயர்சூட்டி இருக்கிறார்கள்.

Mumbai Film Fest’s Lifetime Achievement award to Costa-Gavras, Kamal Haasan
By NewsDesk | Wednesday, September 11th, 2013
The 15th Mumbai Film Festival will bestow its Lifetime Achievement award on French filmmaker Costa-Gavras and actor Kamal Haasan.

Gavras is best known for his political thrillers, such as the Best Foreign Language Oscar-winner Z (1969); Missing (1982), for which Gavras won the Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay) Oscar; The Little Apocalypse (1993) and Amen (2002).

The Greek-born Gavras has also been conferred with the title of French Knighthood. Since 2007, he has also been serving as the President of Cinémathèque Française, one of the world’s largest film archives.

“We are honored to confer the Lifetime Achievement Award to Costa-Gavras. His films have been loved and celebrated by millions of cinema lovers worldwide. We are humbled that he has agreed to receive this award,” said Shyam Benegal, Chairman, Mumbai Academy of Moving Image (MAMI).

Festival Director Srinivasan Narayanan said: “When I think of Costa-Gavras, I am overwhelmed by the elegant, humanist films he has bequeathed to humanity, his gentle nudge to stand up and take a position as he did with his announcement for “Z” – “Any similarity to persons or events is deliberate”. It is our good fortune that we would be receiving him in the Mumbai Film Festival and interacting with him for a whole week.”
Kamal Haasan

Kamal Haasan

Along with Gavras, legendary Indian actor-director Kamal Haasan will also be bestowed with the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Balachander’s Arangetram and Apoorva Raagangal to his award winning performances in Mani Ratnam’s Nayagan and Indian and the variety he brought in – from serious films to comedies to action films is phenomenal.

Mumbai Film Fest’s Lifetime Achievement award to Costa-Gavras, Kamal Haasan
By NewsDesk | Wednesday, September 11th, 2013
The 15th Mumbai Film Festival will bestow its Lifetime Achievement award on French filmmaker Costa-Gavras and actor Kamal Haasan.

Gavras is best known for his political thrillers, such as the Best Foreign Language Oscar-winner Z (1969); Missing (1982), for which Gavras won the Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay) Oscar; The Little Apocalypse (1993) and Amen (2002).

The Greek-born Gavras has also been conferred with the title of French Knighthood. Since 2007, he has also been serving as the President of Cinémathèque Française, one of the world’s largest film archives.

“We are honored to confer the Lifetime Achievement Award to Costa-Gavras. His films have been loved and celebrated by millions of cinema lovers worldwide. We are humbled that he has agreed to receive this award,” said Shyam Benegal, Chairman, Mumbai Academy of Moving Image (MAMI).

Festival Director Srinivasan Narayanan said: “When I think of Costa-Gavras, I am overwhelmed by the elegant, humanist films he has bequeathed to humanity, his gentle nudge to stand up and take a position as he did with his announcement for “Z” – “Any similarity to persons or events is deliberate”. It is our good fortune that we would be receiving him in the Mumbai Film Festival and interacting with him for a whole week.”

கமல் நடிக்கும் அடுத்த பட வதந்தி: ரமேஷ் அரவிந்த் ‘GO’ கமல்ஹாசன் ‘MOO’
Viruvirupu, Tuesday 10 September 2013, 22:45 GMT

கமல்ஹாசனின் விஸ்வரூபம்-2 இன்னமும் வெளியாகவில்லை, அதற்குள் அடுத்த படம் பற்றிய வதந்திகள் கோடம்பாக்கத்தில் ரெக்கை கட்டி பறக்க தொடங்கிவிட்டன.

கமல் நடப்பதாக கூறப்பட்ட ‘உத்தம வில்லன்’ படத்தை நடிகர் ரமேஷ் அரவிந்த் இயக்கவில்லை என ஒரு தகவல். மற்றொரு தகவல், ‘உத்தம வில்லன்’ டோட்டலாக ட்ராப் ஆகிவிட்டது, இதற்கு பதிலாக மூ என்ற படத்தை லிங்குசாமி தயாரிக்க, அதை கமல் நடித்து, இயக்குவதாக கூறப்படுகிறது. (‘உத்தம வில்லன்’ படத்தையும் லிங்குசாமியே தயாரிப்பதாக இருந்தார்)

முதலில், லிங்குசாமி தயாரிப்பு, மற்றும் இயக்கத்தில் கமல்ஹாசன் நடிக்கும் படம் ஒப்பந்தமானது. அதன்பின் லிங்குசாமி வைத்திருந்த கதைக்கு என்ன ஆனதோ தெரியவில்லை, லிங்கு தயாரிப்பாளராக மட்டும் தொடர, அந்த ப்ராஜெக்டை நடிகரும் இயக்குனருமான ரமேஷ் அரவிந்த் இயக்க ஒப்பந்தமானார். அதுதான், ‘உத்தம வில்லன்’. இப்படத்துக்கு திரைக்கதை, வசனங்களை கிரேஸி மோகன் எழுதி வந்தார்.

இந்நிலையில் இப்படம் கைவிடப்பட்டுவிட்டதாகவும் இதற்கு பதிலாக ‘மூ’ என்ற படத்தை லிங்குசாமி தயாரிப்பதாகவும் அதை கமல் நடித்து, இயக்குவதாகவும் இப்போது கதை அடிபடுகிறது. மற்றொரு தரப்பு, உத்தம வில்லன் படத்திலிருந்து ரமேஷ் அரவிந்தை நீக்கிவிட்டு, கமலே அப்படத்தை இயக்குவதாகவும் கூறுகிறது.

பட தயாரிப்பு நிறுவனம் என்ன சொல்கிறது? “லிங்குசாமி தயாரிப்பில் கமல்ஹாசன் நடிப்பது உறுதி. ரமேஷ் அரவிந்த் நீக்கப்பட்டதாக சொல்வது புரளிதான். மற்றபடி படத்தின் தலைப்பு, மற்ற விவரங்கள் விரைவில் வெளியாகும்” என்கிறார்கள்.

கமலுக்காக தாமதமாகும் 'கோச்சடையான்'!


http://i1366.photobucket.com/albums/r765/ganse7/Rajini-Kamal_zps647f1cc5.jpg (http://s1366.photobucket.com/user/ganse7/media/Rajini-Kamal_zps647f1cc5.jpg.html)
'கோச்சடையான்' ட்ரெய்லரை யூ டியூப்பில் லட்சக்கணக்கான மக்கள் பார்த்ததால் பூரித்துப் போயிருக்கிறார் சௌந்தர்யா.

'அப்பா படத்துக்கு நல்ல ரெஸ்பான்ஸ் இருக்கு. தீபாவளிக்குப் படத்தை ரிலீஸ் செய்யலாம்' என்று சௌந்தர்யா சொல்ல, ரஜினி தாடையைத் தடவியபடி சின்னக்கண்களால் மோட்டுவளையை மேய்ந்தாராம்.

'தீபாவளிக்கு வேணாம் பேசாம பொங்கலுக்குப் போயிடலாம்' என்று மகளிடம் சொல்லி விட்டாராம்

என்ன காரணம்? என்று ரஜினி தரப்பில் விசாரித்தால், ''ரஜினி, கமலுக்கு அடுத்தபடியான ஹீரோக்கள் விஜய், அஜித் ரெண்டு பேருமே தங்கள் படங்கள் ஒரேநாளில் ரிலீஸ் ஆகறதை விரும்பாம தெளிவா தவிர்க்குறாங்க.

அவங்களே அப்படி இருக்கும்போது, ரஜினி எவ்வளவு யோசிப்பார்? தீபாவளிக்கு கமலோட 'விஸ்வரூபம்2' ரிலீஸ் ஆகிறது.

அப்போ 'கோச்சடையான்' படத்தை வெளியிட்டு கமல் படத்தோட ரஜினிபடம் மோதறதை விரும்பலை. அதனால்தான் ரஜினி சௌந்தர்யா பேச்சுக்கு செவிசாய்க்கலை'' என்று விளக்கம் சொல்கிறார்கள்.

கே.பாலசந்தரை இயக்க ஆசைப்படும் கமல்!

Kamal likes to direct K.Balachander
கமல், ரஜினி ஆகிய இரண்டு மாபெரும் நடிகர்களையும் திரையுலகிற்கு அறிமுகம் செய்தவர் கே.பாலசந்தர். அந்த வகையில் அவர்கள் இருவரையும் இணைத்து பல படங்களை அவர் இயக்கியுள்ளார். அப்படி இயக்கிய படங்களில் ஒன்றாக நினைத்தாலே இனிக்கும் படம் தற்போது டிஜிட்டல் தொழில்நுட்பத்துக்கு மாற்றப்பட்டு மீண்டும் திரைக்கு வருகிறது. கமல் கதாநாயகனாகவும், ரஜினி இன்னொரு ஹீரோ கம் காமெடியனாகவும் நடித்துள்ள இந்த படத்தில் ஜெயப்பிரதா கதாநாயகியாக நடித்துள்ளார். எம்.எஸ்.விஸ்வநாதன் இசையில் கவியரசு கண்ணதாசன் பாடல்கள் எழுதியிருக்கிறார்.

இப்படத்தின் ட்ரெய்லர் வெளியீட்டு விழாவில், கமல் தன்னை விட பெரிய இயக்குனர் என்று பேசினார் கே.பாலசந்தர். ஆனால், அதற்கு பதிலளிக்கும் விதமாக கமல் பேசினார். அப்போது, சினிமா உலகிற்கு நான் வந்ததே டைரக்டராக வேண்டும் என்றுதான். அந்த ஆசையில்தான் பாலசந்தர் சாரின் படங்களில் நடித்தாலும், உதவி இயக்குனராகவும் ஓடி ஓடி வேலை செய்திருக்கிறேன். ஆனால், எனக்குள் இருந்த இயக்குனர் ஆசையை அவரிடம் வெளிப்படுத்தியபோது, திட்டினார். இது உனக்கும் வேண்டாம். பெரிதாக சம்பாதிக்க முடியாது. உன்னிடம் பெரிய நடிகனாவதற்கான எல்லா தகுதியும் உள்ளது என்று அட்வைஸ் செய்தார்.

அதனால்தான் டைரக்டர் ஆசையை எனக்குள்ளேயே வைத்து விட்டு மீண்டும் நடித்தேன். அவர் சொன்னது போலவே நான் பெரிய நடிகனாகி விட்டேன். ஆக, கே.பி சாரின் கணிப்பும், ஆசீர்வாதமும் என்னை வாழ வைத்தது. மேலும், அவர் என்னை பெரிய இயக்குனர் என்கிறார். அதைதான் என்னால் ஏற்க முடியவில்லை. காரணம், நான் இன்றைக்கு படம் இயக்குகிறேன் என்றால், அவை அனைத்தும் அவரிடம் நான் கற்றதுதான். அவரிடத்தில் பயின்றதை இன்றைய டெக்னாலஜியுடன் சேர்த்து பிரமாண்டமாக கொடுக்கிறேன் அவ்வளவுதான். அதனால் அவரை விட என்னை பெரிய இயக்குனர் என்று சொல்வதை என்னால் ஒருபோதும் ஏற்க முடியாது என்றார் கமல்.

மேலும், என்னை வைத்து கே.பி சார் பல படங்களை இயக்கியிருக்கிறார். 6 ஆண்டுகளில் கண்ணை மூடி முழிப்பதற்குள் அவரது இயக்கத்தில் 34 படங்களில் நடித்தேன். இதை நான் ரொம்ப பெருமையாக கருதுகிறேன். ஆனால், அப்படி அவரது படத்தில் நடித்த எனக்கு இப்போது, என் இயக்கத்தில் அவரை நடிக்க வைக்க வேண்டும் என்ற ஆசையும் ஏற்பட்டுள்ளது. அப்படி அவர் நடிக்கும்போது அவருடன் இணைந்து நானும் நடிக்க வேண்டும் என்றும் ஆசைப்படுகிறேன்.

ஏனென்றால் அவர் ஒரு நல்ல நடிகன். அத்தனை அற்புதமாக நடிப்பு சொல்லித்தரக்கூடியவர். அதனால் அவரை ஒரு நடிகனாக நான் இயக்க வேண்டிய தருணம் வரப்போகிறது. அதற்காக விரைவில் அவரிடம் அனுமதியும் பெறுவேன் என்று தனது ஆவலையும் அதே மேடையில் கே.பி முன்பு வெளிப்படுத்தினார் கமல்.

நானும், ரஜினியும் பிரிய முடிவு

ரஜினி பற்றி பேசும்போது, ரஜினிகாந்த் சார்பில் நான் இங்கு வந்து இருக்கிறேன். அவர் இந்த விழாவுக்கு வர இயலவில்லை. நான் வரவில்லை என்றால் என் சார்பில் அவர் வருவார். எங்கள் இருவருக்கும் இடையே அந்த அளவுக்கு நெருங்கிய நட்பு இருந்து வருகிறது. 34 வருடங்களுக்கு முன்பு இந்த படத்தில் நடித்தபோதுதான் நாங்கள் இருவரும் இனிமேல் இணைந்து நடிப்பதில்லை என்ற முடிவுக்கு வந்தோம். இனிமேல் நாம் இருவரும் ஒரே சம்பளத்தை பங்கு போட்டுக் கொள்ள வேண்டாம். தனித்தனியாக படங்களில் நடிக்கலாம் என்று நான் சொன்னேன். அதை ரஜினியும் ஏற்றுக்கொண்டார். நாங்கள் தனித்தனியாக பிரிந்து நடித்ததால் இந்தளவு வளர்ந்திருக்கிறோம், ஒருவேளை நாங்கள் சேர்ந்து நடித்தால் இப்போது இருவரும் ஆட்டோவில் தான் வந்திருப்போம் என்றார்.

Wish it were true really ....

But as discussed in the box office collections thread, this is not an official listing as it can be created (in this case by a fan) by anybody.

[Dilbert]

Sakala, If your post was intended to stroke some ego here. I agree Vishwaroop broke all the records. Not sure why they stopped at 220+ They could have picked little higher number like 250 to make it a round figure.

I sincerely hope Vishwaroop - No 2 brings even higher number like 300 or 350 range. :notworthy:

kissa khatam natak bhand!

Vishwaroop 325 :rotfl:

[Adox]

Vishwaroop 325 :rotfl:

Do you have the actual numbers for viswaroopam ?

Before you set to do an ROTFL, please post your version of appropriate official numbers to be taken seriously ...

[Dilbert]

Do you have the actual numbers for viswaroopam ?

Before you set to do an ROTFL, please post your version of appropriate official numbers to be taken seriously ...

I laughed when they said 225 + and now i am laughing because suddenly an additional 100 crs got collected out of thin air !

[sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar]

Yaarume illatha kadaila yaarukku tea aathureenga dilbert?!

Ok let me set things right. I never said VR broke Enthiran records, but said, headcount wise it broke Enthiran US records. The very thing was posted here which i don't hav time to dig. Apart, it had longer run than Enthiran, in some parts of Europe/UK. That was when Ragavendra or some Rajni fan was telling that VR was running in only 1 theatre. tHen i posted info from orkut, he agreed his mistake.

I don't know the guy who posted the above numbers. 200 ai 300 aakkurathu periya thappilla. Just 100C mattume business aana Sivaji the L, sorry Boss kku 400C nnu adichi vitta Media we irukke! Not just some individual, mind it!

Jakie chan next Sambalam is the last decade gupsaa! It continues now in various forms! And in a ridiculous Poll run by NDTV, Rajni ousts EVERY Other Celeb in India! But is there a reason why it happened? Can anyone throw a single bit of Logic/Rationale for why he got the No.1 Position country wide?! Avlo famous aa irukkuravar shud be having his films, dubbed to hindi, running and very easily making atleast some 50C. But Enthiran Hindi(Bollywood, within India)collection is some 20C+ (removing tax) which is just 1 or 2 C higher than what Viswaroopam managed to collect in bollywood(VR didn't have a overseas Hindi release, of course, Arab countries, Malaysia et all went miss. Had they happened, surely VR wud have touched some 275 etc)

And what not, there are some fan d_ckheads working in Media and spreading non stop Rajni Agenda blah blah, in name of Neetral Media Fans. You want to name? Take it, its one guy Shankar who blabbers in Thatstamil, same time running a website for Rajni called Envazhi.com, a site which claims Rajni only next to god.

So, unga pakkathukku comedy ellaam pala decades aa irukku. Chumma oru random fan, on his own personal page in imdb(mind that! not on Media or Mainstream) puts some excessive numbers actually shud not bother the likes of Dilbert. But athuve kooda avarai intha aLAvu disturb pannuthunnaa....!

Get ready guys, Kochadaiyan is going to release. Including Masr Jupiter Venus, easily it will collect some 2000 Crores! And we hav a bunch of dumbos who will believe that too! வாழ்க ஜனநாயகம், வருக மருதநாயகம்

250 CRORES BUSINESS : VISHWAROOPAM2,AI AND kOCHADAIIYAAN RELEASE DATES :
Nearly 250 crores are riding on these three projects and this is something huge for Tamil film standards. Now these three films are at various stages of productions and we got some news regarding the release dates of these three biggies. Among the three it looks like Vishwaroopam2 will come first, Kamal has finished almost all major portions and currently the post production work is progressing at a brisk pace.

Sources say Vishwaroopam2 might be a November third week release. Thought he film will be completely ready before October the team want to make sure that it gets a big worldwide release. As Krrish3,Arrambam and many other films are releasing for Diwali, Vishwaroopam2 might be a November third week release in both Hindi and Tamil.

Regarding Kochadaiyaan the team is working 24*7 on the post production and currently the enancing process is progressing at China. Sources close to the production house say that they are planning to finish the post production work within October and after seeing the rushes they will decide the release date. Already the trade is confident that Kochdaiyaan will be 12-12-2013(Rajinikanth b'day) release and they also asked the production house to zero in Rajinikanth's b'day as the release date.

Though some section of media is speculating that Shankar's Ai will be a Pongal release, reliable information on the release plan says that the film will be a April 2014 release. Though Shankar will finish the entire talkie portions by November, he want to make sure that VFX and other post production works are up to the mark. The first look teaser might happen on January 2014 followed by audio and film release date.

Yaarume illatha kadaila yaarukku tea aathureenga dilbert?!

Ok let me set things right. I never said VR broke Enthiran records, but said, headcount wise it broke Enthiran US records. The very thing was posted here which i don't hav time to dig. Apart, it had longer run than Enthiran, in some parts of Europe/UK. That was when Ragavendra or some Rajni fan was telling that VR was running in only 1 theatre. tHen i posted info from orkut, he agreed his mistake.

I don't know the guy who posted the above numbers. 200 ai 300 aakkurathu periya thappilla. Just 100C mattume business aana Sivaji the L, sorry Boss kku 400C nnu adichi vitta Media we irukke! Not just some individual, mind it!

Jakie chan next Sambalam is the last decade gupsaa! It continues now in various forms! And in a ridiculous Poll run by NDTV, Rajni ousts EVERY Other Celeb in India! But is there a reason why it happened? Can anyone throw a single bit of Logic/Rationale for why he got the No.1 Position country wide?! Avlo famous aa irukkuravar shud be having his films, dubbed to hindi, running and very easily making atleast some 50C. But Enthiran Hindi(Bollywood, within India)collection is some 20C+ (removing tax) which is just 1 or 2 C higher than what Viswaroopam managed to collect in bollywood(VR didn't have a overseas Hindi release, of course, Arab countries, Malaysia et all went miss. Had they happened, surely VR wud have touched some 275 etc)

And what not, there are some fan d_ckheads working in Media and spreading non stop Rajni Agenda blah blah, in name of Neetral Media Fans. You want to name? Take it, its one guy Shankar who blabbers in Thatstamil, same time running a website for Rajni called Envazhi.com, a site which claims Rajni only next to god.

So, unga pakkathukku comedy ellaam pala decades aa irukku. Chumma oru random fan, on his own personal page in imdb(mind that! not on Media or Mainstream) puts some excessive numbers actually shud not bother the likes of Dilbert. But athuve kooda avarai intha aLAvu disturb pannuthunnaa....!

Get ready guys, Kochadaiyan is going to release. Including Masr Jupiter Venus, easily it will collect some 2000 Crores! And we hav a bunch of dumbos who will believe that too! வாழ்க ஜனநாயகம், வருக மருதநாயகம்

Kochadaiyan can't be released on earth , in its current form ! :shame: Sakala , all along (my first few posts on this Gabbu) was around the subject how none of the production houses release actual numbers instead they either claim 10000 crs collected in 1 day or collected only 200 crs and declared flop. Culture has to change. All Fansite made up numbers only act as a shield for these guys to continue their black to white conversion.

Any Website before publishing numbers should post from,reliable sources like govt report from (Income tax or Corporate revenue) or production company statement of accounts. Till that happens No one (include me) have the F#$reaking rites to brag about any cabbage. Hopefully Kamal sir can build a beach house facing west with Vishwaroop 2 collection.

மருதநாயகம் படத்திற்கு புத்துயிர் கொடுக்க கமலஹாசன் திட்டம்


நடிகர் கமலஹாசனால் கடந்த 1997ஆம் ஆண்டில் துவக்கப்பட்ட 'மருதநாயகம்' ஒரு வரலாற்றுத் திரைக் காவியமாகச் சித்தரிக்கப்பட்டது. 18ஆம் நூற்றாண்டில் வாழ்ந்த முகமது யூசுப் கான் என்ற வீரரைப் பற்றிய கதை இதுவாகும்.

தமிழ், ஹிந்தி, தெலுங்கு, ஆங்கிலம் ஆகிய நான்கு மொழிகளில் தயாரிக்கப்படுவதாக இருந்த இந்தத் திரைப்படம் பின்னர் கைவிடப்பட்டதாக அறிவிக்கப்பட்டது. பொருளாதாரப் பிரச்சினையும், மற்ற சில வெளிவராத பிரச்சினைகளும் இந்தப் படத்தைக் கிடப்பில் போட்டன.

தற்போது 'விஸ்வரூபம்' படத்திற்கு கிடைத்த வரவேற்பில் கமலஹாசன் அதன் இரண்டாவது பாகத்தையும் தயாரித்து வெளியிடும் இறுதிக் கட்ட வேலைகளில் உள்ளார். இந்தப் படத்தின் வெற்றி அவருக்கு மீண்டும் மருதநாயகத்தை இயக்கும் எண்ணத்தை உருவாக்கியுள்ளது. அவரது வெளிநாட்டு நண்பர்கள் பலரும் அந்தப் படத்திற்குத் தேவையான பொருளுதவியை அளிப்பதாகக் கூறியுள்ளது அவரது ஆர்வத்தினை மேலும் தூண்டியுள்ளது. அதனால், தன்னுடைய தீவிரமான ரசிகர்களுக்காக 'மருதநாயகம்' படத்தினைத் தயாரிக்கும் முயற்சியில் அவர் மீண்டும் ஈடுபடக்கூடும் என்று தகவல்கள் தெரிவிக்கின்றன.

ஆ! சண்டைக்கு வருவீங்கன்னு பார்த்தா இப்படி பேசுறீங்க?! anyhow, most kamal fans, incl me, are not much worrying nowadays abt box office. Ppl agree that Kamal is in much better shape, BO wise, than how they were (falsely) assuming before, that he was very weak in BO. Athu pothumga! Unbreakable BO Rajni ye irunthuttu pogattum! Kamal will break that then and there and not always, as he is never making movies in full commercial format. Even VR i would say is a successful Hey Raam!

And reg ur BO expectation, thats something which will NEVER happen for both Kamal & Rajni films! Others may partially expose the numbers to show case and also to save their ass, at times! so beyond a point, i guess we need not take these BO numbers very seriously!

SKV - I was told by my friends in San Jose on 1st March - I was there for the IR concert - that VR was still running there with unprecedented crowds thronging the hall - VR was released on 25 January 2013 worldwide - not many Indians film run for more than a month even if it is in the horrible desi theaters here.

Furthermore, beyond that one month run in desi halls, VR had an extended run in Carmike chain of theaters.

I dont know about the actual BO collections, but VR did create more than a stir

SKV - even I used to wonder why Kamal does not bother about these things - and then I happened to watch a recent interview of his - one of the questions about the books he has read recently or intends to read - Kamal mentions Richard Dawkins' "The God Delusion", "The Greatest Show on Earth" and "The selfish gene" !! my eyes popped !

On the one hand, he reads history, from back home - sithhar paadalgal, puraanam etc etc - and he has mentioned Gibbons in another interview - historian Gibbons' books on the Roman empire, contain such thoroughly researched material on several aspects of Roman history as well as Christianity, which are not even mentioned in the Bible (Old or New Testaments) - one small ex: just like the sitthars of TN, there were equivalent middle-east sitthars amongst the early gnostics!

this man (KH) reads these books and also Dawkins' amazing books that criticize the ritualistic, blind beliefs inherent in faiths/religions and talks about evolution etc etc.

for a man to read such a diverse amount of literature, it is not surprising that his worldview has been so exquisitely fashioned to something sublime enough that I wouldnt be surprised that he would sooner or later arrive at the inferences/observations that someone like me has arrived at after reading similar stuff - and thus it is not surprising that he makes a film like 'anbe sivam' or a 'hey ram' or a 'vr'

most relevant to our topic, I dont think Kamal either bothers as much about the BO reports, or the material gains - most importantly, for someone to be reading all these books, he would NOT HAVE THE TIME FOR publicizing his films BO success ! simple matter of logistics thats all

A well know fact is that Nammavar reads atleast 80 pages a day no matter what !!!

கமல், நடிகர் திலகத்துடனும் மக்கள் திலகத்துடனும் குழந்தை நட்சத்திரமாக நடித்துள்ளார். அதனால் கமல் அப்படி சொன்னது பொய் இல்லையே. நிஜத்தை தானே குறிப்பிட்டுள்ளார்.

கலைஞர் பற்றி குறிப்பிடுவதை தவிர்த்து இருப்பது அவர் மட்டும் அல்ல; அங்கு பேசிய ரஜினி உட்பட அனைவருமே...

""தமிழ், கன்னடம், தெலுங்கு, மலையாளம் உள்ளிட்ட அனைத்து திரைப்பட விழாக்களும் தனித் தனி அல்ல; அனைத்தும் ஒன்றுதான். திரைப்பட கலைஞர்களாகிய நாம், சினிமா துறை என்ற ஒரே கூரையின் கீழ் வாழும் ஒரே குடும்பம். நமக்குள் எந்த வேறுபாடும் இல்லை. அதில் நானும் ஒருவனாக இருப்பதில் பெருமைப்படுகிறேன்.

[leosimha]

In VR-1, in the scenes where Kamal is trying to escape in Afghanistan, Kamal jumping from one building to the other by running fastly, is it Kamal? I still have doubts and think that it is carried out by some stuntman. But in the end of the movie, they show that video again and Kamal catch hold of the building with his hands while jumping to avoid falling. Kamal look uber cool and slim, trim and fit in that. That is something unbelievable to me.

எல்லாமே டூப்புதான் - 1

True ? :roll:

Mostly known items only. They did shoot a major portion in India. They did use a lot of graphics. These have been mentioned by the VR team itself. That's why they expected major award for graphics work.

Regarding Stunt, not sure if it true. KH is a stickler for doing things himself.

There is nothing new in that. But the way these guys writing articles are very cheap...

The things which were done with the brilliant usage of Graphics combined with art direction/ Production Design and Camerawork, these guys are mentioning as
" எல்லாமே டூப்புதான் - 1"

Don't know what these guys get out it :banghead:

Vishwaroopam just misses the Oscar train
IndiaGlitz [Tuesday, September 24, 2013]

Kamal's movies are all Oscar material and they always get nominated themselves in India's race for Oscar. And this year: Om Prakash Mehra's Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Ritesh Batra's The Lunch Box and Gyan Correa's Gujarati film 'The Good Road" and Kamal's Vishwaroopam featured in the list of nominees for the year.

However the Gujarati film had the last laugh and was chosen by the panel to be the official entry from India to the Oscars. The

movie features Sonali Kulkarni, Keval in the cast and was directed by Gyan Correa. The talk was that, Vishwaroopam just missed the Oscar entry by a few votes.

Well let's hope Vishwaroopam sequel too will feature enough recognition as its first part for we know Kamal loses no hair in giving the best.

Sorry to disagree. His face does show age. (compare with Mammootty for example who is 3 years elder)
But what amuses me is his physical fitness. No one at this age can near him !!

Comparatively, yes.

[Adox]

Sorry to disagree. His face does show age. (compare with Mammootty for example who is 3 years elder)
But what amuses me is his physical fitness. No one at this age can near him !!

Lets put it this way - Does he look his age ? No. Atleast 10 yrs. younger. He can easily pass off as someone in the 40s range. When it comes to fitness, he seems to go back and forth. These days he looks very trim and fit .. but there have been times when he was a little on the plumier side. Agree, Mamooty looks quite young.

[avavh3]

Comparatively, yes.
:lol:

[Arvind Srinivasan]

Mommooty has someow managed to look the same for the past 25+ years. Just have a look at his pre 90s movies. There isn't much of a difference from the way he looks today. But that's rarely the case with Kamal. The rigorous prosthetics , the beefed up appearances in Aalavandhan, VV have all taken a toll on his overall appearance. There was also talk about how the prosthetics used in Dasavathaaram affected his hair. So no wonder he started balding after that. Another guy who rarely seems to age is Nagarjuna. He can probably dub off as Naga Chaitanya's brother in one of his movies for he looks that young.

+1. He tried to look differently in many movies that did take some toll on his body. Mammootty and Nagarjuna :notworthy: though they are not looking as handsome as Kamal, definitely looking young for quite long time.
PS: regarding Nagarjuna, because of his younger looks, still there are gossips linking him with younger heroines like Charmi, Anushka etc..

Hi,

If possible please post the youtube link when it is available... Earlier his speeches in IITs were excellent..

[PARAMASHIVAN]

Mommooty has someow managed to look the same for the past 25+ years. . If I remember correctly Mamooty has been wearing a wig for long time , that alone is enough to make some one look younger than some one that is bald .Nargarjuna seems to be slim and trim though

[Arvind Srinivasan]

^ I dont think Mammooty wears a wig, Paramu. Guess its his own hair barring a few films.

Ok, but his hair looks so artificial like that of MGR/Shivaji in late 60s early 70's .. any way :) , I also heard some where he is a strict Muslim, so he may not be consuming harmful substances like Alcohol/tobacco which leads to premature aging.

Vista 2013, IIMB's popular business fest, couldn't have asked for a better beginning. The keynote speaker, Padmashree Kamal Haasan, set the tone for the vibrant fest with his candid quotes, witty one-liners, and savvy repartee.

Beyond all that charm which was uncorked effortlessly, was wisdom, delivered in easy-to-digest capsules, and a fervent invitation to B-School students to create opportunities for themselves in the Indian film industry.

"Come into my industry with your professional skills. It staggers me that we have so many people crazy about films in this country but few professionals in this industry," he said.

Delivering the keynote on the theme of the fest, 'Inspire, Aspire, Achieve', he remarked drily: "Today, instigation is mistaken for inspiration, avarice is mistaken for aspiration and mere accuracies are heralded as achievements!"

But he was quick to repose faith in the youth. "Your dreams are fresh. Before you become willing to compromise in the name of pragmatism, you should become the change we all hope to see," he advised.

"People often mistake that my industry is full of entertainers. No, film making is a business. The first man to make a film was an entrepreneur. The reason why I am here, at IIMB, is self-serving. I hope to attract young talent like you into my industry, which is ailing because people who make money out of films are not ploughing profits back into it. Bring your entrepreneurial and managerial skills into my industry," he said.

Kamal Haasan was welcomed to Vista, by Dr. Padmini Srinivasan, Assistant Professor, Finance & Control Area, IIMB, who lauded the students for conceptualizing and hosting the popular business fest.

Kamal Haasan's keynote address was short and stimulating, but the Q&A upped the ante and brought out the best in both the speaker and the spirited students.

From Rajnikanth ("the only reason we don't act together is that we don't want to share the loot!") to Sivaji Ganesan ("the only sun in my horizon when I woke up to cinema was Sivaji"); from the 100-crore movie club ("Rome will be vandalized by Caesars and re-crafted by vandals") to the Oscars ("why do you want American chaap for ISI products?") he was brutally honest.

But it was his take on DTH that earned him the loudest applause. "Come on guys, how many of you watch movies on Torrent?" he asked
and when a mighty lot of hands in the packed-to-the-rafters auditorium went up, he grinned and remarked, "Ah! I only blame your age for your honesty!"

On a more serious note, he declared open war on obsolete technology and dubbed those who kept digital cinema out of the reach of the masses for over two decades as vested interests. "They are not villains really, but they do come very close!"

It was, he said, for the busy housewives, the elders - his fans from an earlier generation, the ill and infirm, who have equal rights as anyone else to enjoy quality cinema, that he chose to take the DTH route for 'Viswaroopam'.

Technology is disruptive and should be harnessed, not kept at out, he observed, adding that young talent -- in the form of a new generation of professionally qualified managers and entrepreneurs - would save the ailing film industry which he compared to an over-exploited oil well. "People don't even dump dead dinosaurs into oil wells," he rued.

The sobering thought was quickly replaced by a startling story. When asked about his favourite actor, he called for his mobile phone and shared a picture of Dilip Kumar. "He's a scholar; a man so erudite that he was far ahead of his times," he said, softly.

And then came the story.

"One night, at a film party, Yusuf saab (Dilip Kumar) sat munching a sandwich and a young man plonked himself next to the thespian and announced - very loudly, assuming that Yusuf saab, like most elderly folks, was deaf: 'All young actors want to be like you'. Startled by the young man's loud voice, Yusuf saab turned a little away and continued munching his sandwich. The persistent young man thought the thespian hadn't heard him and shouted even louder, 'All young actors want to be like you', making poor Yusuf saab choke and splutter and wonder aloud 'But why?'

"Indeed, 'but why?' Yusuf saab's response was stunning in its simplicity. Why should we all be like someone else? Let's make our own road maps in life."

With that slogan, the curtains on the day's event came gently down, but before the credits could roll, the consummate artiste and gifted raconteur delivered the punch line.

A student wanted to know about his love for Tamil. 'Oh, I love Tamil alright! I love to speak the language, I think in my mother tongue but it's just that when I tried to say 'I love you' in Tamil to my first date, it was disastrous. Since then, I play it safe and stick to simple English in such vital matters!"

Now you know why the students grinned all the way back to their dorms.

"Today, instigation is mistaken for inspiration, avarice is mistaken for aspiration and mere accuracies are heralded as achievements!"

He uses wigs only for characters. Otherwise he is not bald. He was a chain smoker long back.. then turned to tobacco. Now he is clean from such things and very strict in diet and exercise.
And takes bath in mineral water :)

This is surprising. Most of the mallu actors respect him for his commitment to keep his fitness and many say that he does not join the drink parties as he does not drink !
I think Nammavar also does not drink. Once he said he used to drink when he was in Malayalam (with Soman), but not now.

[Adox]

Just goes on to prove that aging is mostly genetics with good habits preventing further decline. There're people who look aged in their 30's for no fault of theirs vs. people who look young in their 50's with bad habits. But bad habits will certainly pull you down health wise.

Talking about fitness, Kamal during Khakki-sattai days used to do single or one arm pushups quite comfortably. It was quite rare then and even today - not just among actors but also with the gym crowd. Quite macho .. But he didnt take up conventional body building the way surya did. He had different priorities ... I'm sure he would have done well if he did though.

Taking bath in mineral water is a bit too much ... romba over.

[Arvind Srinivasan]

Cant be Thenali. He was much fitter and leaner at that time. Probably post VV in and around 2006.

kh with ksr, crazy and arr. what else it would be? or may be a coincidental get together

[Arvind Srinivasan]

^ Why not...Its pretty normal for people to meet up with each other. And if I am not mistaken, ARR was the first choice for Dasavathaaram.

[ajaybaskar]

After Thenali, Kamal-KSR-ARR were supposed to do a film called Naran. The film was shelved with pooja and a day's recording. May be it was taken then.

If not India, Vishwaroopam 2 will release on DTH in the US

Kamal Haasan found himself in the midst of controversy earlier this year, when he was not allowed to release Vishwaroopam on DTH. Theatre owners across Tamil Nadu opposed the idea as they felt it would stop audiences from coming to the theatres if they had the option of watching the film at home.

In Bangalore, at a meeting to help set the ground work for the upcoming FICCI's (Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry) Frames Conclave, Kamal, who is the chairman of the media and entertainment business conclave, revealed his plans for the DTH release of his next film Vishwaroopam 2.

"The TV premiere of a film is a step into the future. The idea was to have one premiere on TV at a premium price. It would not only get people to watch the film at home, but also drive them to watch the film on the big screen. But there are too many people here opposing it. Everybody has a kitchen at home, why then are so many restaurants surviving? Yes, there are issues such as ensuring the DTH premiere is given only to individuals rather than institutions, but there are ways of controlling that too," said Kamal and added, "I have plans for my next film. If India won't allow it, I will take the idea abroad. Vishwaroopam 2 will release on DTH in the US.

True!

True, but pushups or any body weight based execercise will not "bulk" you up, it would rather "tone" you and give muscle defenition. This is what surya did back in 2007 in that film (by Gauthum) , if we talk about body building then it is actors like salman khan.

If KH or surya took up body building it would awkward because of their height.

[Cinemarasigan]

:lol: It may not be like he buys mineral water and take bath, probably he might have fixed a water softener at his bathroom and use that water to take bath. There are some water softeners(KENT water softener is once such equipment) which are available around 6,000 rupees or so.. Many people in our apartments fixed that to softens the salty water..

About the same height .. maybe an inch thats all but looks good on him.

Its all about maintaining good proportions ... A lot of aaN azhagans from south who do karlakattai, bar and dhadhal type workouts look awkward and disproportionate. I doubt if surya just did body weight exercises. He had a good trainer and was into nautilus/other weight training. I believe chiyaan recently started using surya's trainer. Aamir Khan is another example of not being very tall but still did a good job of it.

2611

[Arvind Srinivasan]

^If I am not mistaken, I believe Aamir Khan is of the same height as Surya if not shorter and still looks good with a chiseled body. The thing that one needs to guard against is overdoing it which Surya is guilty of IMHO.
