[MrJudge]

The movie debuts another new director Thiagarajan Kumararaja and is produced by SPBCharan. The movie is launched today and looks like an action movie:

[tscii:4bab7e5a72]SPB Charan’s Aranya Kaandam launched
By Moviebuzz | Thursday, 18 December , 2008, 15:16

Under the Capitol Film Works banner, S P Charan has started his next venture Aranya Kaandam and a puja was held to mark the same at his Kodandapani Studios. Present on the occasion were SP Balasubramaniam, Gangai Amaran and AM Ratnam along with the cast and crew of the film.

The film stars Sampath Raj, Jackie Shroff, Ravi Krishna and newcomer Yasmin. Thiagrajan Kumararaja is the debut director who opens his Kollywood innings with this film. He has done several ad films apart from indulging in some script and dialogue writing for various films. This is a gritty gangster film which has all the masala of a commercial entertainer. Ask them why they chose Jackie Shroff for the movie and Thiagrajan replies, “The role demands it.”

While Sampath Raj plays the role of a gangster called Pasupathy, hero Ravi Krishna claims that his role is very different from what he has done so far. “I was looking for a break away from the Netru Indru Nalai mode and this film gave me that platform. You will see very different heroes in this film,” says he. Thiagarajan adds “Ravi Krishna has been very accommodating to do a multi star film like this. He is a producers’ son and so he understands what the film needs.”

The shooting commences tomorrow. Let’s see what new elements Charan infuses into this film. Going by the posters which have the visual feel of a comic book, the film seems to arouse curiosity alright.[/tscii:4bab7e5a72]

[tscii:6b8b34eb9c]Aaranya Kaandam – Ramayana in the concrete jungle

A press meet of the film Aaranya Kaandam was held today at the Aditya hotel in Chennai. The film is being produced by SPB Charan under his Capital Film Works banner. Aaranya Kaandam first caught the eye a couple of months back with its eye catching stills that were splashed across newspapers. The stills were unique and the first of its kind in a

very long time. The film is being directed by Kumar Raja who had written the story for Pushkar-Gayathri's 2007 hit Oram Po. Aaranya Kaandam will feature Jackie Shroff for the first time in a Tamil film. Ravikrishna, Sampath and Bangalore based model Yasmeen Ponnappa make up the rest of the lead cast.

Speaking at the function, the director said that as indicated by the title, the film has borrowed a share of its plot from a chapter in Ramayana. He also added that Ramayana was such a great epic that any film made would have something to take from it. While the Aaranya Kaandam of the Ramayan was set in the jungle, the film will be set in the concrete jungle of Chennai. The film has been shot extensively in many areas of Chennai city. The director said that not even a single scene is intended to be shot abroad or in scenic locales. The film will have a lot to do with the underworld and gangsters. Jackie Shroff plays a don in the movie and the director said that he had signed the Bollywood actor because of his natural charisma in front of the camera. So, we can expect an out and out action fare.

Jackie Shroff spoke at the function and said that he was glad to get an opportunity to star in Kollywood at last. He had been coming to Chennai for the past 25 years, and only now will he finally act in a Tamil film. It was the director's narration that made him take up the role. He said that it was a privilege to work in an industry that boasted of greats like Ilaiyaraja and A.R. Rahman and that the fact that this film was being produced by S.P. Balasubramaniam's son made it even more special. He added that while shooting for the movie he had noticed the talent in Ravikrishan who combined very well in many scenes with him. He said that a bright future surely awaited the young actor.

40% of the movie has been canned and shooting is progressing as planned. Music for the film is by Yuvan Shankar Raja. K.S. Vinodh Kumar handles the camera.

Writer of Orampo.

[equanimus]

Plum/PR,
This is his maiden venture. My flagging him as the main reason for looking forward to this film is because he wrote the dialogue for 'Oram pO' (and, if I'm not mistaken, wrote some of the "high-philosophy" lyrics too). Some of the lines in that film, you can't make such stuff up! I'm willing to put my money on the man. He understands "pleasure of text." If you know what I mean.

[equanimus]

Palaapazham :lol: :oops:
Yeah, and it's just a sample. The dialogue is good throughout the film. And let's not forget the profoundly tautological lyrics (sample "கோழி, காலு ரெண்டு கால் / ஆடு, காலு நாலு கால் / போடா, மீனுக்கில்லே கல் / இது தான் மச்சி லைபு"; or "குண்டாக சுட்டாக்க இட்லி / அதையே ரவுண்டாக சுட்டாக்கா ஊத்தப்பம் தோசை"*). He surely has a wacky sense of humour.

* -- Not sure which ones he wrote. I was earlier under the impression that all songs were written by poetter Na. Muthukkumar, which doesn't seem to be the case.

[littlemaster1982]

Those songs were written by Na.Muthukumar though. Idly line is my favorite (I even had it in my signature) :lol:

TK wrote the theme song only, I think.

Sampath: Riding a wave (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/regional/news-interviews/Sampath-Riding-a-wave/articleshow/5564951.cms)

Actor Sampath is quite a happy man these days. After all, he has been having back-to-back releases in the past few months!

And what’s more, he’s been getting rave reviews for them as well. “I’m so happy that people appreciate my work,” he says. Sampath is extremely excited about his role in the film Aaranya Kaandam. “The film is keeping me in high spirits. I have a very different role in Aaranya Kaandam and I have a strong feeling that the film will go places. If a list of 100 best films in Tamil cinema is made, I am sure Chennai 600028 and Aaranya Kaandam will find a place in it,” says the actor with confidence.

Let’s hope that our dashing villain’s dream comes true.[tscii:6d43391fcd][/tscii:6d43391fcd]

An interview with SPB Charan on Polimer TV:

SPBCharan said AK is a Tarantino kind of film done in tamil. A few characters running in parallel will intervene and come closer towards the end. But he didn't reveal when he is going to release the movie/audio. He also said "Usually people say that yuvan composes great songs for Simbu or Selva only. But honestly he has given excellent songs for my movies also so far"

Movie has been selected for 'South Asian International Film Festival'! :clap:

It seems to be mostly laid back with bouts of violence. Perhaps something of a dark comedy? I don't know. Of course, this lack of genre specificity has made SPB Charan to liken it to QT's films..

I think he refers to the parallel threads knotting up in a wild way. I get more of a Guy Ritchie feel to this one. Rockin Rolla comes to my mind.

[kid-glove]

Yeah, that's (multiple threads and QT) a given! Yes, I sense Ritchie influence here as well as in VQC. Better Tarantino/Ritchie than Guillermo Arriaga/Stephen Gaghan! Enough Hollywood reference for the day.

The Movie has been screened in SIAFF. Here are some of the reviews on Twitter!


On Sunday 31st October 2010, @filmmakernaveen said:

Aranya Kaandam...is a classic. Super Script. Terrific Screenplay. Brilliant Direction. Yuvan Shankar Raja's background theme is a biggest plus. Sampath is as usual fantastic. Ravikrishna does a role of substance. Yasmin ponnappa is a surprise and has done something unusual. Director Thiagaraja Kumararaja is THE man!

Verdict: Must Watch

I am giving it 4.5/5.

Detailed Review soon!

Sudhish Kamath Says:


Loving every bit of Aaranya kaandam. Tarantinoish. Love the dialogues.

Guys, you must watch Aaranya Kaandam. Director thiagaraja kumararaja delivers the Tamil equivalent of Kaminey.

Tamil cinema, heck Indian cinema finds its Innaritu in Thiagarajan Kumararajan's Aranya kandam @SouthAsianFilms Bravo!!! The best so far.

Thiagarajan's film has a music score that adapts everything from balkan to flamenco to classical. A man 2 watch

[Nerd]

[tscii:e53b055924][/tscii:e53b055924]Yeah great initial reviews. From NYTimes (Thanks to k-g's post in Indian films section)


The odd man out is Thiagarajan Kumararaja’s “Anima and Persona,” an existential gangster picture that is the only non-indie in the group. A Tamil film featuring the Bollywood star Jackie Shroff as an aging don, “Anima” is the longest but the most engaging entry in the competition. With his sometimes stately, sometimes punchy visuals, Mr. Kumararaja knows how to tell a story, and he adroitly keeps a number of narrative balls in the air.

[viraajan]

Review:

I was very impressed with the world premiere of Anima And Persona at the 2010 South Asian International Film Festival, on Saturday, October 30 at the SVA Theater in Manhattan. The film draws from a variety of influences, including classic Kung Fu films, Blaxploitation and certainly Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. First time director, Thiagarajan Kumararaja, clearly possesses a unique talent, having created a funny, riveting, highly stylized film that translates perfectly, even if you are completely unfamiliar with Tamil (South Indian) culture and their rich film tradition. Read more..... (http://tarahtastes.com/anima-and-persona-the-superb-feature-film-deb)

About Soundtrack:

The soundtrack is also worth noting. In the Q&A after the film, Kumararaja said that he told the composer that when he would "shut up", that was when the music should speak, and vice versa. In short, it worked. By choosing sophisticated music for raw, violent scenes, and making other seemingly divergent choices, he created a palette that forces the viewer to feel more deeply; sometimes, it's for humor, but other times it greatly enhances the dramatic impact. You can get a quick taste of it in the trailer, below.

http://www.filmydum.com/top-stories/2519/aaranya-kandam-trailer-impressive

The movie, penned and directed by debutant Thiagarajan Kumararaja, stars Jackie Shroff, Ravi Krishna, Sampath Raj and debutante Yasmin Ponnappa in lead roles. SPB Charan produces the movie and Yuvan Shankar Raja scores the tunes.

One of the latest converts is actor Siddharth. He tweeted on Friday: "have you guys seen the theatrical trailer of kumar raja's "Aaranya kandam" (tamil)? it is the best thing i have seen in a looong time. WOW!"

The power-packed trailer showcases some violent action scenes involving the lead actors. The film was premiered on October 30 at the South Asian International Film Festival, and it bagged the Grand Jury Award for Best Film. 'Aaranya Kandam' is all set for a theatrical release in December 2010.

Censor Borad butchered Aaranya Kaandam !!!
The internationally-acclaimed Tamil film Aaranya Kaandam has been butchered by the Regional Censors in Chennai and passed with an 'A' certificate.

Recently, the film won the Grand Jury Award for Best Film at the prestigious South Asian International Film Festival in New York and was slated for a theatrical release in February. The film, produced by S P Charan and directed by debutant Thiagarajan Kumararaja, stars Jackie Shroff, Ravi Krishna, Sampath Raj and debutante Yasmin Ponnappa in lead roles. With a spellbinding background score by Yuvan Shankar Raja, the film is a gangster story set in Royapuram area of Chennai.

As per sources, the censors have demanded more than two dozen cuts, including voice muting, on the ground of profanity, showing drug abuse and violence in the climax. When CT spoke exclusively to S P Charan, the peeved producer says, "A film that has been appreciated and lauded by international audiences and won a major award has been badly treated by the regional censors in Chennai. They insisted on too many cuts and then slapped an 'A' certificate. I'm ready to take the 'A' certificate without cuts, as I have made the film for a mature audience and not for children !!! "

Those who have seen the film say it is pathbreaking and a realistic depiction of the drug mafia in Chennai. Says a filmmaker who has seen Aaranya Kaandam, "It is the best film that has emerged out of Kollywood in a long, long time. The film is a dark gangster drama, based on the drug trade. Yes, characters do burst into profanity and there is some blood and gore. But what about the many Madurai films which the same censor board has passed? Why is it that they are cracking down on this film, when recently the same censor board, sitting in Mumbai, passed No One Killed Jessica that had a lot of profanity and swear words. Raktha Charithra had a lot of blood and gore too. Some time ago, Dev D had an entire song on drug abuse too !!! "
A visibly agitated Charan is not willing to take the 'A' certificate with cuts as it will mar the flow and narration of the film. Charan signs off by saying, "Aaranya Kaandam has won a major international award, and deserves something better as all of us made the film for TN audiences. I will take the film to the Tribunal in Delhi, and explain my viewpoint. For God's sake, let us have a uniform censor rule!"

53 cuts & an A certificate! :sigh2:
We had reported earlier that the internationally acclaimed Tamil film Aaranya Kaandam produced by SPB Charan and directed by debutant Thiagarajan Kumararaja has been "butchered by the censors and given an 'A' certificate."

In an interview to a Tamil paper, Thiagarajan Kumararaja said the "film has been given an 'A' certificate with 53 cuts!"

The 53 cuts itself according to industry veterans must be a new record! The film which was scheduled to release on February 4 has now been postponed.

The producer and the director has decided to take the film to the Tribunal in Delhi.

Aaranya Kaandam won the Grand Jury Award for Best Film at the prestigious South Asian International Film Festival in New York .

The film stars Jackie Shroff, Ravi Krishna, Sampath Raj and debutante Yasmin Ponnappa in lead roles.

With a spellbinding background score by Yuvan Shankar Raja, the film is a gangster story set in Royapuram area of Chennai.

Interview with Kumararaja.

A new chapter (http://www.thehindu.com/arts/cinema/article1158882.ece)

SUDHISH KAMATH

http://www.thehindu.com/multimedia/dynamic/00380/06cp_aaranya_kaanda_380665f.jpg

Aaranya Kaandam won a prize at an international festival even before the film was completed. Director Thiagarajan Kumararaja gives the details

A Tamil film, made by a debutant director with an ensemble cast with no big names to boast of, dark, grainy picture quality (thanks to the projection in its offline quality, without colour correction) and no background score or songs — an incomplete film unable to meet its completion deadline —premieres at the South Asian International Film Festival in New York last October, meets with whistles and claps in the theatre with its wicked wit and deliciously dark humour, and goes on to win the Grand Jury Prize for Best Film.

Back home, after completion, the Censors refuse to clear it. They rule that not even adults can handle profanity or violence! The revising committee agrees to clear Aaranya Kaandam with an A certificate if the makers agree to implement the 52 cuts — mostly use of colourful slang and stylised violence — and ask the producers to get clearance from Rajnikant and Kamal Haasan for a joke involving their names!

Kamal Haasan loves the film, S. P. Charan tweets. The makers are planning to head to the Tribunal to get justice for the film that would lose its teeth and punch if the suggested cuts were made.

“I think they are being extra careful,” says Thiagarajan Kumararaja, sitting down for an interview at the new Amethyst. “They don't have any fixed rules or guidelines, so maybe they want to play it safe. Most of the words used in this film are not for sensationalism or meant to titillate, they are used to define character. What do you expect when a gangster is angry? It's very essential for the characters to speak that way.”

What gave him the guts to take his own time before he made a film? “I didn't know anything else in life,” he laughs. “I've been trying to write since 1998 after dropping out of Visual Communication from Loyola. My parents have been supportive. I tried making ad films. Remember the Sri Krishna Collections ad with a girl walking all around Pondicherry? I made that. Then, I made a short film for Ability Foundation's one-minute film competition for the prize money. My animation film won and the money kept me floating for six months. After that, I wrote Oram Po and hung around the sets for two years. By the end of Oram Po, I started writing Aaranya Kaandam, in December, 2006. I met Charan in January, 2007, for the first time, and gave him a narration. He listened to it for two hours and immediately said: ‘Let's make this film.' I also asked him not to be around during the shoot,” he laughs.

The cast

For a debutant, Kumararaja knew exactly what he wanted. Be it the equation with the producer or the actors.

“A lot of people turned it down because they didn't want to share space with other stars. Some people wanted changes and didn't like the ending… If I agreed to the changes, it wouldn't be the kind of film I wanted to make. A friend suggested Jackie's (Shroff) name. He agreed right over the phone. A couple of stars auditioned but I didn't think they fit the characters I had in mind.”

Did he make what he started out to make? “I wanted to make a racy film that moved at breakneck speed, but what I have ended up making is a slow, classic build-up to the climax,” he grins. “Most of the film starts off only in the second half. At the interval block, the filmmaker or a character will tell you the story begins only now. It's like saying you will be paid only from the third month of joining work. Oh, then I will join work from the third month. The idea was to cut to the chase.”

Aaranya Kaandam is Tamil cinema's first foray into neo-noir, a genre popularised by Quentin Tarantino, Guy Ritchie and even the Coen Brothers. It's got all the elements of traditional film noir and also post-modern references to pop culture.

“Aaranya Kaandam is a term from the Ramayana. It means Jungle Chapter but apart from the term, I haven't borrowed anything else. The characters are as good or as bad as the common man. We might do something wrong according to law, jump the signal, go triples and commit such petty offences. When a friend sleeps around, we don't think he's being evil, right? I have just treated murderers and scum in my films just as I would treat a friend,” he laughs.

Influences? “Everything I have watched has been an influence. I'm a huge fan of Doordarshan, so my influences range from international to local. I like Karagattakaaran and at the other extreme, Aval Appadithaan. I think Bhimsingh's classics are the greatest. I like Thiruvilayadal, also Visu as he directs a lot of people talking all along. At another level, I like the works of Tarkovsky, Tarantino, Lars von Trier... To me, it's the work that matters and not the directors. No matter how many films a filmmaker makes, there would be very few films that are truly great, where he has got everything right.”

:lol: Nice set of influences there.

Since I saw this movie's poster (4 years back?) I have been waiting. Watching the 1st trailer (especially the "vaazhvathu etharkku" shot) so many times have made my wait worse. Hearing about the 52 cuts is shocking, to add fuel, a friend's friend who has watched the movie in the US (I dont know how far this is true) has hyped it up so much saying that if this movie gets fully released here, it will change the path of entire Tamil cinema like how Pulp Fiction has changed America's.

So come on! When is this movie releasing?!

I suppose you have included the muting of certain words and masking violent scences (like slit throats) when you say "52 cuts".
This definitely messes the narration visually, but personally I can tolerate it as we can make out what was said or shown.

How did you come to films?

If I have to name someone who is responsible for me coming to films, it is Ilayaraja's music. From a young age, I've been a huge fan of his music. Because of that, I studied Visual Communication. I like films and I have been watching films from a young age. So, making films happened to be a natural progression. Yes, I've made just one film and I do not know whether I will continue making films. I may or may not make another film...

Whoa! Saw a couple of interviews of him as well in youtube. Promising guy. Best wishes for the film. I ll watch it in a month or so once the DVDs out.

There is nothing wrong with movie nor anything great. So many shots/sequences/knots have been copied from various movies, unlike tarantino they haven't been just referenced and used for bigger fun but just like ordinary tamil films they have been used in the movie. Cinematography mirattal. Sampath, the kid and his dad were amazing. AGS villivakkam la only 4 rows were filled. The theater too was samma mokke so will try writing more after tmrw's show at sathyam. Personally, I wasn't very pleased. Some dialogs were brilliant, some subtle underlining threads were nice but overall a very mediocre film. Too much style over substance which was almost none.

Movie doesn't do justice to the 1st teaser trailer.

Absolutely recommended. The voice may not be unique (though it certainly is unique to our cinema) but the song is, without a shred of doubt, entertaining. Thagiriyamaa ticket edunga.

[littlemaster1982]

I felt the film is missing some pace. Lot of good scenes and all the threads are tied so neatly, but overall it wasn't much satisfying. TK should have avoided voice overs and characters explaining what was already shown. May be my opinion will change after a rewatch.

[kubrick]

Watched it the second time. Dialogues, casting, cinematography and BGM are the saving graces of the film which will make everyone say this to be a world class film and turn it into a blockbuster. But is it a film which has substance? Is it a film which showcases characters? Is it a film which will make you emote even for a second?

I couldn't find a single place where the director had said something by himself. The whole movie seems like a combination of nice scenes from a collection of other movies. Nothing seems original. Everything seems to be borrowed from so many people like QT, Inarittu, Sergio Leone, Meirelles etc etc. Even the Jackie Sheroff's plot is a complete ripoff from a chinese movie called Ju Dou (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099902/). The idea of Sampath tricking the gangs is lifted from Yojimbo. The best thing about this movie is the cinematography but it is more like looking at photographs of north chennai than it helping in telling the story. I heard people saying "this shot was nice" "that shot was nice" but when people start viewing a movie shot by shot for its beauty that is when a director and cinematographer fail. Apart from the characters and locations the audience shouldn't be seeing anything. Using voice-over isn't a bad thing completely but all of a sudden changing the movie's narrative style, that too 15 mins before the climax, makes no sense.

What I cant stand is people calling Nandalala a ripoff but not this. People are giving standing ovations for this but din't make Naan Kadavul run.

[littlemaster1982]

“I wanted to make a racy film that moved at breakneck speed, but what I have ended up making is a slow, classic build-up to the climax,”

I expected a racy film and probably this is why I wasn't satisfied.

Baradwaj Rangan's short take (http://baradwajrangan.wordpress.com/2011/06/11/bullet-point-report-aaranya-kaandam-89437589/)

With most mainstream films, especially in Tamil, you know some fifteen minutes in if they’re working for you (or not). These are the films made expressly with you in mind, thinking that they know what you want, the pandering productions. But there are a few that leave you hanging until almost the end – “Hmmm… I’m really enjoying this… But where is it going?… Am I really liking it (as an organic whole) or is it just the laughs giving me a high? – and then, gradually, things begin to cohere and reshape your entire thus-far experience, and you slap your forehead and smile and say wow! This is one of those films.

Absolutely recommended. The voice may not be unique (though it certainly is unique to our cinema) but the song is, without a shred of doubt, entertaining. Thagiriyamaa ticket edunga.

Well said :thumbsup:

Just read it. There aren't any spoilers in strict sense, but he has mentioned few of the scenes and dialogues, which you may not want to know about.

Read a blog which links this film to Fargo (didn't read the contents for I'd like to avoid spoilers). Too much hype already. Let's wane it down & go watch it clean slate.

The trailer had a slow-mo shot of the heroine falling down and a pool of blood forming under her head. This isn't there in the film though. (The closest is when she almost gets run over by a truck.) Any idea if the ending was different before censorship?

yuvakrishna's excellent description of the plot/screenplay
ஆரண்ய காண்டம் - லக்கிலுக் யுவகிருஷ்ணா (http://www.luckylookonline.com/2011/06/blog-post_13.html)

‘நாடு ஒரு காடு, மனிதர்கள் விலங்குகள்’ – இதுதான் ஒரு வரி கதை. இழப்பதற்கு எதுவுமில்லை என்கிற நிலையில் இருப்பவன், எதை வேண்டுமானாலும் பெற முடியும் என்கிற எளிய சூத்திரம் இறுதியில் வலியுறுத்தப்படுகிறது.

சினிமா என்பது ஒரு கதைசொல்லி ஊடகம் என்று தமிழ் சினிமாவின் முன்னோடிகள் அவசர அவசரமாக முடிவெடுத்திருக்கிறார்கள். தமிழில் சினிமா வந்து எண்பதாண்டுகள் கழித்து, ‘இல்லை. சினிமா என்பது ரசிகனுக்கு அனுபவத்தை ஏற்படுத்தும் ஊடகம்’ என்று ஆரண்ய காண்டம் அழுத்தம் திருத்தமாக மறுத்திருக்கிறது.

இப்படம் எந்த கதையையும், கருத்தையும் வலியுறுத்தவில்லை. முதல் காட்சி தொடங்கி, இறுதிக்காட்சி வரை உங்களுக்கு பிரேம்-பை-பிரேமாக வழங்குவது காட்சியனுபவத்தை மட்டுமே. முதல் காட்சி, அடுத்தக் காட்சிக்கு சங்கிலிப் பிணைப்பாக இருக்க வேண்டும் என்பது அழுத்தமான விதி. அனாயசமாக இவ்விதியை உடைத்திருக்கிறார் இயக்குனர் தியாகராஜன் குமாரராஜா. லீனியர் அல்லது நான்லீனியர் என்கிற இரண்டே சாத்தியங்கள் கொண்ட திரைக்கதை கட்டமைப்பை, அசால்ட்டாக odd வரிசையில் அடுக்கியிருக்கிறார் (வானம் படத்தில் மொக்கையான காட்சிகளால் சப்பையாகிவிட்ட மேட்டர் இது).

கமல்ஹாசனும், விக்ரமும் நடித்திருக்க வேண்டிய படம்.
