இதற்கும் உத்தரவாதமில்லை... விக்ரம் பட வில்லங்கம்

ஷங்கர் படத்தில் விக்ரம் நடிக்கிறார் என்ற அதிகாரபூர்வமற்ற செய்தி கிளப்பிவிடப்பட்ட அடுத்த நாளே ஹரி இயக்கத்தில் சூர்யா நடிக்கிறார் என்ற தகவலும் உடனடியாக வெளியிடப்பட்டது.

நண்பன் படத்தில் நடிக்க ஆயிரம் கண்டிஷன்கள் போட்டு ஷங்கரை அலற வைத்த சூர்யா, இந்த முறையும் அதே ஸ்டைலை போட்டு தாக்க, மறுபடியும் ஷங்கரின் படம் கை நழுவிப் போயிருக்கிறது அவருக்கு. இதை மூடி மறைக்கும் விதத்தில்தான் இந்த ஹரி பட அறிவிப்பு என்கிறார்கள்.

கரிகாலன் டிராப், தாண்டவம் படத்தில் நம்பிக்கையில்லை, சமீபத்தில் வெளிவந்த ஐந்து படங்களும் தொடர் பிளாப். இதெல்லாம் கிலியை ஏற்படுத்திய காரணத்தால் ஷங்கரிடம் போய் விடாப்பிடியாக இந்த வாய்ப்பை பெற்றாராம் விக்ரம். இருந்தாலும் முறையான அறிவிப்பு வருகிற வரைக்கும் இந்த படத்திற்கும் உத்தரவாதமில்லை என்கிறார்கள் கோடம்பாக்கத்தில்.

Shankar's next titled Therdhal?

Sources say that director Shankar is planning to title his upcoming film as Therdhal. Shankar is working on his next project after Nanban and it is believed that the film is a political thriller. Writers Suresh and Bala known popularly as SuBa is busy penning the script for this film.

It is now said that Shankar has decided that the title Therdhal meaning Election would be very apt for the film. He is also planning to rope in Vikram to play the lead role in this film. There is also buzz that the title has been registered on behalf of Shankar. More details about this project are awaited.

Parthy, Read the second line and you will get what Sakala was trying to convey. I don't think he was taking a shot at vikram.

Pras - Arandavan kannukku irundathellam peya :wink:

BTB, Last night I saw a TV9 report that surya will be the hero for the tamil version and Pawan kalyan for the telugu version.

[Parthyy]

Selva it was as if Suryars Peraasai landed struggling Vikram the film.neither there was concrete news on being surya being considered nor I am aware of this....

[sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar]

I don't need to belittle vikram. He already has done that for himself. Story selection is an important aspect for any hero, i have already said surya somehow is smart in this and vikram has to badly pickup in this area. I hate Manmadhan Ambu to the core, and i regret for kamal doing that, but in end of the say, even in that film, there are hand ful of key takeaways which are good and hailed by public. Vikram shud get involved in lot of things.

Even Ajith is poor in this area, only now, he is getting better, but atleast he always gaurantees a opening even after films like Aegan, aanchaneya. just joining with a venkat prabhu is creating expectations.

If Vikram gets chance, he shud actually thank surya, for this!..I you still dont understand that context.
I cannot help..

[sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar]

paarthy, everybody talks and discusses on news items, as if they are true. I am no different in that aspect. Everybody, incl me knows that these news can turn out as a lie. So we all knows that if a news becomes false, then the discussions pertaining to them too becomes invalid. including discussions by me. Ithukku mela displaimer pottuttu pesa mudiyaathu. All this is self-understood.

Regarding my previous statement, if i don't get the context, so be it. I have told as much lenghthy as i can, about what i think. May be i didn't understand but let it be that i am not misunderstood, especially by you!

[rsubras]

good, this thread is getting hits but why drag Surya unnecessarily into this......... if Surya can be blamed on the basis of unverified unauthentic news reports why cant Vikram be? just coz Surya has less number of ppl defending for him (in this forum atleast)

[selvakumar]

I hate Manmadhan Ambu to the core, and i regret for kamal doing that, but in end of the say, even in that film, there are hand ful of key takeaways which are good and hailed by public.
<dig> Sakala, Given that you hate Manmadhan Ambu to the core, I wonder what are the key takeways that you are referring to as hailed by public!. Hope you are not referring to the hub reviews! My personal observation is that most of the people didn't expect such a film from Kamal + KSR combo and didn't like it. Not sure whether they selectively appreciated parts of the film. Even then, I don't know how you are drawing that conclusion. </dig>

[sakaLAKALAKAlaa Vallavar]

Pretty simple. I don't know about his current films but past ones, except deiva thirumagal, all were dull ones right? And whats wrong in going and asking a director, he already did Anniyan so wud be having rapport with shankar. Also, shankar is the top director now, so he cud have really went and asked right?!

Even if Vikram's market is too too good, still, if shankar approached surya and if he agreed terms, then Vikaram won;t be getting that chance right? So what i said becomes true in this way too.

Shankar to join hands with a biggie
http://www.accesskollywood.com/akd-images/news-images/shankar-to-join-hands-with-a-biggie-therdhal-11-05-12.jpg
Director Shankar is working on his next project with writers SuBa penning the screenplay and dialogues. It is also said that the film has been titled Therdhal and Vikram will get to play the male lead in this film.
The latest buzz surrounding this film is that Shankar will be teaming up with veteran cinematographer PC Sriram. The director is keen on working with the cinematographer and there is a good possibility of this coming true with Therdhal, say sources.

Interesting...


கறுப்புப் பணம், ஊழல், சமூக ஒழுக்கமின்மையை தொடர்ந்து தன் படங்களில் சாடி வரும் இயக்குநர் ஷங்கர் அடுத்து குறி வைத்திருப்பது... பணம் வாங்கிக் கொண்டு வாக்களிக்கும் மோசமான வாக்காளர்களையும், அவர்களுக்கு பணத்தை அள்ளிவிடும் வேட்பாளர்களையும்!

விக்ரம் - பிசி ஸ்ரீராம் - ஏ ஆர் ரஹ்மான் என மீண்டும் ஒரு மெகா கூட்டணியோடு ஆரம்பிக்கும் தன் அடுத்த படத்தின் கதைக் களம் 'ஓட்டுக்குப் பணம்' என்பதுதான்.

இந்தப் பின்னணியில் ஆக்ஷன் - காதல் - காமெடி என்ற கட்டமைப்பில் திரைக்கதையை உருவாக்கி வருகின்றனர் எழுத்தாளர்கள் சுபா.

இந்தப் படத்துக்கு தென்றல் என தலைப்பு வைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளதாக சொல்கிறார்கள். இதே பெயரில் 2003-ல் பார்த்திபன் நடிப்பில் ஒரு படம் வெளியானது நினைவிருக்கலாம்.

பாலிவுட்டிலிருந்து ப்ரியங்கா சோப்ரா மாதிரி ஒருவரை இந்தப் படத்தில் ஹீரோயினாக்க வேண்டும் என முயற்சித்து வருகிறாராம் ஷங்கர். அசினுடனும் பேசியிருப்பதாகச் சொல்கிறார்கள்.

தயாரிப்பாளர் ஆஸ்கர் ரவிச்சந்திரன் என்கிறார்கள். ஆனால் இன்னமும் இறுதியாகவில்லையாம்.

யாராக இருந்தாலும் கேள்வி கேட்காமல் எக்கச்சக்க பணம் செலவழிக்கத் தயாராக இருக்க வேண்டும்!

Samantha, who has broken up with Mani Ratnam has given bulk dates to Shankar. The film will go on floor from tomorrow. AR Rahman will be doing the music for the film and PC Sreeram will handle the camera.

Suresh & Suba would require someone to bring the best out of them. All their works with k v anand were commendable. Shankar sure can make them to do a good work. Shankar normally dont give a big deal about lead actors pairing and just wants a glam doll who would look good on the screen and also looks like an added attraction in his lavish songs. No wonder he zeroed in samantha.

Thanks thalaivarE! Made my day :musicsmile:

Poster looks similar to H20.

Jeans was the worst attempt at mixing Priyadarshan comedy with usual serial drama with Raadhika (though she's acted well.) Kadhalan kooda PDum, ARR isai thavira, onnum aahaa oohoo illa. Anniyan's romance was the sore point and I think Vikram's Remo act was overboard at times.

Let' see. Even Election plot seems more interesting than love thriller.

"Columbus Columbus" is one of those songs especially close to me, it got me so excited then. Also a great outing for Rahman as a singer. The new sound Rahman brought was something else altogether. #NowPlaying What a song!

[equanimus]

Another thought running through my mind in recent times, a point which I've been itching to make (perhaps without properly formulating it). Shankar is dismissed too easily nowadays (I've been guilty of this myself), but it must be said he was one of the filmmakers who shaped the 'urban cool' those days. Some of the properly globalized populace of today's urban space may find this suggestion laughable, but I think it's true.

Another foreign actress in Shankar's I?

Shankar had already disclosed that I is a two heroine subject. Recently there was news that Shankar has roped in the happening Amy Jackson, in place of Samantha, for this mega budget film starring Vikram. Now there are reports saying he has also roped in the Indian born American actress and the Vishwaroopam girl, Pooja Kumar for the film.

The film will also star Suresh Gopi and Santhanam in important roles. This will be the second consecutive film which has Vikram, Santhanam and Amy Jackson, after Thaandavam.

ஷங்க*ரின் ஐ - புதிய தகவல்கள்

ஷங்க*ரின் ஐ படத்தின் பூஜையுடன் அரை டஜன் படங்கள் அவசர அவசரமாக பூஜை போட்டு படப்பிடிப்புக்கு தயாராகிவிட்டன. ஆடி மாசத்தால் வந்த அவசரம்.

ஐ படத்தில் விக்ரம் ஹீரோவாக நடிப்பதும் எமி ஜாக்ஸன் ஹீரோயின் என்பதும் தெ*ரிந்த விஷயங்கள். பி.சி.ஸ்ரீராம் ஒளிப்பதிவு செய்கிறார். ஆஸ்கர் ஃபிலிம்ஸ் தயா*ரிப்பு. இந்தமுறை முழுமையாக வெளிநாட்டு திறமைகளுடன் ஷங்கர் களமிறங்கியிருக்கிறார். காஸ்ட்யூம்கூட வெளி ஆள்தான்.

எம்ஐபி 3 படத்தின் காஸ்ட்யூம் டிஸைனர் Mary Vogt ஷங்க*ரின் ஐ படத்தின் காஸ்ட்யூம் பொறுப்பை ஏற்றிருக்கிறார். அதேபோல் சண்டைப் பயிற்சி. அனல் அரசுடன் சைனாவின் பீட்டர் மிங்கும் இணைந்து பணிபு*ரிகிறார். இசை ஏ.ஆர்.ரஹ்மான். வாலி, வைரமுத்து போன்ற சீனியர்களை தவிர்த்து கபிலனை முழுமையாக பயன்படுத்துகிறார் ஷங்கர். ஏற்கனவே ஒரு பாடல் ஒலிப்பதிவாகிவிட்டது.

காமெடிக்கு சந்தானம், ஆக்சனுக்கு சுரேஷ் கோபி என்று மேலும் சிலரை சேர்த்திருக்கிறார்கள். படத்தின் சி*ஜி வொர்க்கை ஆஸ்திரேலியன் ரைஸிங் சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் கவனிக்கிறது. இவர்கள்தான் ஹா*ரிபாட்டர் சீ*ரிஸில் நம்மை மிரட்டியவர்கள்.

ஒரு மெகா டீமுடன் இந்த மாதம் படப்பிடிப்பை தொடங்குகிறார் ஷங்கர். முக்கியமான விஷயம் இது அரசியல் படமோ பலரும் சொன்ன மாதி*ரி தேர்தல் கதையோ இல்லை. சுபாவின் சொந்த உருவாக்கமாம்.

Primary reason for 40+ year old men to lose weight suddenly is Diabetes.

[Plum]

I hear he did a Botox job - (for context, look at Saarug for the paridhAbagaramAna side effects of this). I remember seeing a very funny blog post on botox jobs somewhere. Let me try to get that one.

[Plum]

This is the one (http://blogeswari.blogspot.in/2011/01/beauty-is-botox-deep.html)
Excerpts:

In my opinion, all Botox jobs make you look like a palli. You end up with just one expression post Botox. It's a weird combo of azhugai-sirippu. Here are some of the baddest Botox jobs I have seen recently.


1. Gauri Khan. This expression only I was talking about in the earlier paragraph. Imagine her screaming at Saaruk khan for putting eera towel on the bed with this expression. Kaamedy-a illa? One Botox, and this expression is what you will end up 24*7







2. Vikram. Late entry in the field. Two flops back to back. Thanks to daadi and all pal tried to camouflage his age a bit, but oflate with all youth-action roles going to the under 30s, this over 40 mama had to had to get an urgent Botox job done. Look at the photo below.Once again the, I-have-had-velakkennai-but-I-am-pretending-to-love-it expression.







3. Hema malini-ji - Can't blame her. Two vettu daughters. One (unofficial) purusan trying to act in some Yamla Pagla type flop movies. Somebody has to earn in the family to keep the ulai burning, no? With fellow Botox-an Amitabh Bahchan-ji giving vaazhvu to the likes of Hema malini-ji in Amma-Appa-pyaar hai type of films and Pothy's types signing her for endorsements, Paatti.. sorry Akka-vukku vaazhvudaan. Botox ki Jai Ho!




4. Nita Ambani. For all her patronage to Botox , she and purusan can buy a Cricket team and get Botox to sponsor it also. Periya edam. But same azhugai-sirippu thanks to Botox.




5. Saarukh kaan. When Botox happens on the face, the neck is ignored. You start resembling the 'Oanaan' family. This guy is frowning and there are no lines on his forehead / between the eyebrows. Looks maha weird. The picture down is from a teaser promo of a new show he is hosting. Wait till the main promo is on air. Saaruk and Chameleon #sameguy only.





6. Shobhaaaa Deeee. The main reason for her to write books like 'Shobhaa at Sixty' 'Seruppadi at Seventy' etc is only for media and her Page 3 'mwaah' 'mwaah' friends to cover the launch of the book and write/ say "Mwaah Mwaah, Shobhaa you don't look 60..mwah mwaah". Don't believe me? Watch this (01:00 onwards). Her next book should be titled 'Botox since twenty'.

விக்ரம், எமி ஜாக்சன், சந்தானம், சுரேஷ் கோபி, நடிகர் பிரபுவின் அண்ணன் ராம்குமார் மற்றும் பலர் நடிக்கும் ' ஐ ' படத்தினை இயக்கி வருகிறார் ஷங்கர். ஏ.ஆர். ரஹ்மான் இசையமைக்கும் இப்படத்திற்கு பி.சி.ஸ்ரீராம் ஒளிப்பதிவு செய்கிறார்.

ஆஸ்கர் பிலிம்ஸ் ரவிச்சந்திரன் பிரம்மாண்டமாக இப்படத்தினை தயாரித்து வருகிறார்.

சென்னையில் 45 நாட்கள் நடைபெற்று வந்த படப்பிடிப்பில் ஒரு பாடல், ஒரு சண்டைக்காட்சி மட்டுமே எடுத்தார். அதனைத் தொடர்ந்து தற்போது சீனாவில் படப்பிடிப்பு நடைபெற்று வருகிறது.

இந்நிலையில் 'ஐ' படத்தின் கதை என்று ஒரு கதை வெளியாகி இருக்கிறது.

சொல்லப்படும் கதை : விக்ரம் ஒரு Body Builder-ஆக நடிக்கிறார். அவரும் எமி ஜாக்சனும் காதலிக்கிறார்கள். ஆனால் படத்தில் வில்லனாக வரும் சுரேஷ் கோபிக்கு எமி மீது காதல்.

விக்ரம், எமி காதலை தெரிந்துக் கொண்ட சுரேஷ் கோபி, விக்ரமை உடல் பரிசோதனை என்கிற பெயரில் விஷம் கலந்த ஊசியை போட்டு விடுகிறார். அதனால் விக்ரம் திடீரென உடல் இளைத்து, பலவீனமாகிவிடுகிறார். சக்தி இன்றி, உடலில் உயிர் மட்டுமே மிஞ்சுகிறது.

விக்ரம் இந்த சூழ்நிலையிலிருந்து எப்படி மீண்டு, மறுபடியும் உடலினை உறுதி செய்து, பாடி பில்டராக உருவாகி, அரசியல்களைச் சமாளித்து, ஒலிம்பிக் பதக்கம் வெல்கிறார் என்பதே 'ஐ' படத்தின் கதையாம்.

I and the Matrix

Ace director Shankar has already done with two schedules for his magnum opus I, which has Vikram in the lead.
While the shoot for the first one happened in Chennai, in which an action sequence and a song were shot, the second schedule was completed at some exotic locales in China.(where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was shot). The team is again all set for their next schedule, which will happen in Chennai and its outskirts.
Vikram will flaunt his newly-built six pack abs for an action sequence in the film, which will be choreographed by Yuen Woo Ping, who designed the stunts for some of the biggest Hollywood action bonanzas like The Matrix, Kill Bill series and the Academy-Award winning Crouching tiger, hidden dragon. Shankar is also planning to shoot a song in never-before seen locations of Europe.

Vikram has lost substantial weight for Shankar's "I" in which he has three different looks and even fell ill a couple of times while preparing himself for the role. Vikram has been on a gruelling diet to get into physical shape for "I".

"I've actually fallen ill a couple of times. 'I' is a do-or-die effort for me," said the actor who was also seen in Hindi films "Raavan" and "David".
"Yes, I am trying different looks. There are a lots of prosthetics involved. But more than external props, I'm actually changing my physical look in 'I'. I am changing my physique for the role. I have to lose and put on weight for the role, all in one film," he added.

The film has the kind of special effects and prosthetics that one has come to associate with director Shankar's cinema, be it "Indian" (dubbed into Hindi as "Hindustani") or "Anniyan" ("Aparichit" in Hindi).
Confirming the same, Vikram said: "In terms of special effects, it'd be like my earlier film 'Aparichit' with Shankar. The special effects would be 10 times more advanced. It's very hard work. It's a tough role."

Shankar's "I" would also be released in Hindi. "It has to be. It's a very expensive film. And I don't think any other actor would ever want to attempt what I've done in 'I'," said Vikram.

The actor said his toughest role so far has been in Bejoy Nambiar's "David".
"I had to be very normal and yet not be myself. When my wife saw 'David', she told me this was the most difficult character I've ever played. The challenge was to look drunk and to look lovelorn. Both are a a high of different kinds...."
About "David", Vikram says his character was "lovely" and "endearing". "Unfortunately, a portion of my character's back-story in animation was removed. That would have given a very cartoonish comic book feel to my character. You get to see some of that in the Tamil version. But I am very happy with my part in the film. I had such wonderful co-stars... Ruby Chakravarti, Saurabh Shukla, Isha Shravani, Tabu. I had a wonderful time shooting with Bejoy Nambiar."
Vikram also spoke his Hindi dialogues for the first time. "I had someone help me with the Hindi dialogues." Thanks to repeated telecast of "Aparichit", Vikram has become a familiar face in northern India.
"At any given time it is on one television channel or another. I am currently shooting in Jodhpur and you won't believe this. Little kids recognise me as the guy in 'Aparichit'. And since I've lost substantial weight right now for Shankar's 'I', they're asking, 'What happened to you?' But I am doing it very carefully, no steroids or other substance to mould my physique."-times of INDIA

Amy heads from Oz to Puducherry

Shankar's 'I' heroine took off to Puducherry on a whim on Sunday, after she found out that she had a couple of days free before she resumes shoot for his film.
Amy Jackson tells TOI, "I've been travelling constantly for the last couple of days. I first went to Jodhpur with the team of 'I'. We then travelled to Australia, and returned to Chennai recently. I was told that I had some time off before I begin my next schedule here. So, I just took off with my friends to Puducherry. This was just a fun trip."
So, how did she spend her time there? "The place is known for its beaches, and I've always wanted to check them out. So, we were strolling along the beaches and gorging on some scrumptious French cuisine. We visited some of the famous landmarks there," says Amy.
Ask her about what the 'I' team did in Australia, and she says, "We didn't shoot for the film there. I can't talk much about the film without the director's approval. But I can say this schedule was interesting because we didn't exactly shoot there. Our expedition there will be part of the film in a totally unconventional way."

Shankar’s I Shooting in Kodaikanal

Shankar is now wielding megaphone for Vikram’s next flick “I”. Amy Jackson is playing the female lead and ace music director A.R.Rahman is composing the tunes for this film.
As per reports, Shankar planned “I” first schedule in China. But, no shooting access was given for few places in China. So director Shankar planned to recreate those parts of China across 150 acres in Kodaikanal to shoot those portions.
“I” is anticipated to be another high budget movie in Indian cinema with highly technical crew. Santhanam and Suresh Gopi are playing the prominent roles. Cinematography is handled by P.C.Sriram and Venu Ravichandran is producing this movie under Aascar films.

Vikram’s toning it down!-timesofindia

The latest we hear about Shankar's 'I' is that Vikram will be given a 40-day break... just to lose weight! A source close to the actor says, "After shooting for one day during the first week of April, Vikram will take a break for 40 days. During that time, he will have to tone down for the look he has to sport for the film's next schedule. While he had put on weight for the first schedule, he later toned it down. Currently, the actor will have to work hard on his look for the next schedule that will commence after a month."

It can be recalled that the actor has already lost weight for Pithamagan and Deiva Thiirumagal. Whereas, he was seen in a muscular look in Raavanan and David. It looks like the actor is pretty comfortable with his weighty issues.

Vikram’s different hairstyle for ‘I’-http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com

Looks like Vikram's not just concentrating on his physique for his film with Shankar. We hear that along with working on becoming leaner, the actor is also trying out a new hairstyle for 'I'. While the buzz is that Vikram will tonsure his head for a particular sequence in the film, a source in the know tells us that the actor will only be shearing off some hair for the scene.
The source says, "Vikram has undergone a complete makeover for 'I'. For the first few schedules of the film, the actor had to work out in the gym and put on weight. He was then asked to lose weight gradually for the next couple of schedules. And now, the actor has been instructed to become even leaner. Along with his physique, his hairstyle has also been changed to suit his look. While Vikram won't be shaving off his hair completely, he will have to change his hairstyle to suit his leaner body type. It will be a little different from the usual style he sports, and the team is working on it now."
We hear that Shankar is all set to begin the next schedule of his film from June. The source adds, "The unit had taken a break of almost two months, but work on VFX and postproduction were on. Now, they will resume shooting for the film from next month."

85 வயது முதியவராக விக்ரம்!

ஷங்கர் இயக்கத்தில் விக்ரம் நடித்து வரும் 'ஐ' படத்தின் first look போஸ்டர், டிரெய்லர் எப்போது என்பது தான் பெரும் எதிர்பார்ப்பாக இருந்து வருகிறது. ஆனால், அதற்கு இன்னும் பல காலம் ஆகும் என்பது மட்டும் உறுதியாகத் தெரிகிறது.

ரொம்பவே உடல் மெலிந்து காணப்பட்ட விக்ரம், பொது நிகழ்ச்சிகளில் கலந்து கொண்டே 'ஐ' படத்தில் நடித்து வந்தார். இந்த நிலையில், கடந்த 2 மாதங்களாக விக்ரமை எந்த பொது நிகழ்ச்சியிலும் காண முடியவில்லை.

அதுமட்டுமன்றி ஜி.வி.பிரகாஷின் திருமணத்தில் கூட விக்ரம் கலந்து கொள்ளவில்லை. தொலைபேசி மூலமாக தனது வாழ்த்தை தெரிவித்தார். விக்ரம் என்ன செய்து கொண்டு இருக்கிறார் என்று விசாரித்ததில் சில ஆச்சர்ய தகவல்கள் கிடைத்தன.

'ஐ' படத்தில் 85 வயது முதியவர் வேடம் ஒன்று இருக்கிறதாம். அதுவும் அந்த வேடத்தில் உடம்பு வெயிட் ஏற்றி ஜிம் பாய் மாதிரி இருக்க வேண்டும் என்று உத்தரவு போட்டு இருக்கிறாராம் ஷங்கர்.

இதற்காக எந்த நேரம் பார்த்தாலும் ஜிம்மே கதி என்று இருக்கிறாராம் விக்ரம். ஜிம் விட்டால் வீடு, வீட்டை விட்டால் படப்பிடிப்பு என்று கடந்த 3 மாதங்களாக இருந்து வருகிறார் விக்ரம்.

இந்த உடலமைப்போடு எந்த ஒரு பொது நிகழ்ச்சிக்கோ, குடும்ப நிகழ்ச்சிக்கோ செல்ல வேண்டாம் என்று உத்தரவு பிறப்பித்து இருக்கிறாராம் ஷங்கர்.

‘ஐ’ – ¾ Completed!
July 15th, 2013
Hi Everyone,
It’s been a year since we started shooting for ‘Ai’ and technically it is taking its own time for Vikram’s physical change, scanning, molding and for preparing prosthetic make up materials, but I believe it’s worth the wait.
In May I had visited Weta Workshop, New Zealand and met Richard Taylor, the co-founder of Weta, and other artists and technicians. Richard Taylor is a very creative and wonderful person and I was surprised to see him working along with others in the workshop, sculpting a horse for some project. What I liked the most about him is that he is keen on the creative part than the business part.
Had storming sessions regarding the look of Vikram and others in ‘Ai’. They took me through the whole Weta Workshop and I was amazed to know all the stunning visuals, makeup and props which I saw in the recent year’s movies are done by Weta. I had the same excitement when I visited Stan Winston Studios, US for ‘Endhiran’.
In June we had a three week schedule that happened in Bangalore, Mysore and Chennai. An eye riveting make up for Vikram was done by Sean Foot and Davina Lamont, and Vikram proved he’s a great actor once again. Now we’ve completed 75% of the movie and going for the next schedule in a couple of days.
Catch you soon!

Yours,

Shankar

I think losing weight drastically for a film by a popular actor is something new to Tamil Cinema.

Hollywood la eduthukitta, namma Batman Christian Bale has done it for the film Machinist. Mathew McConaughey in "The Dallas Buyer's Club" and Tom Hanks, to an extent, lost weight for "Philadelphia".

I appreciate Vikram & Shankar.....edhavadhu senji thaney aaganum !

Here it is !! #VIKRAM's Exclusive interview to Vikatan !!

This photo shoot happened because i want to see how I look, says Vikram. I need to reduce 10,10kg till Ai shoot ends so we can have photo shoot at regular intervals, Vikram said to G.Venkat Ram, photographer.
Vegetables and fruits are main course for Vikram and some times pepper chicken without oil. He had rice food items and oil items very long before. Daily 1 hour Tread Mill Running, 2 hour work outs in Gym and cycling whenever he have free time in home.
He forgot Morning-Noon- Night meal pattern and have to sit in hungry to eat and have to get up with the same hungry is the law of Ai.
Diet and workouts reduced his weight and when he removes his shirt the 6 packs is stunning. whenever he is in extreme hungry his wife is controlling him from heavy food. As he his reducing his
weight day by day, all of his clothes are getting bigger. so he have to go shopping to buy new clothes once in every 10 days."That time i am very much happy", says CHIYAAN
In Ai, half of the portions you can see normal #Vikram and another half you can see ultra slim. so by the verge of shoot he will look more slim.

dedication and all is fine...but our body is not a laboratory for doing such extreme things that is against nature........ as thirumoolar says, udal valarthen, uyir valarthene..... have to respect one's body and mind........ thatz why they call Sivaji as emperor in acting...without doing anything drastic to the body nor with overdose / plastic makeup he went on to create the desired impact a character needed......

in the opening sequences..just some face movements and sivaji makes us feel the pain of the character he is playing..great...

Btw I have to point out 1 thing , couple of years ago myself and a fellow hubber Muniswamy was discussing how Tamil wallahs will accept if Kohinoor wears half saree, I was spot on.
