Swathika says that she wants to act in controversial role

Mudhal Kadhal Mazhai heroine Swathika while speaking to the media said,” I am donning the role called Lalitha in this film. Mahendran is doing the lead role. My role is equivalent to the heroe’s role. I have got good scope for acting. This film was initially titled Lalitha Colony but since Colony is an English word, the title was changed as Mudhal Kadhal Mazhai. The story of this film is about the property dispute between two families. Madhuvannan is directing this film. I had acted in the Kannada film Pallavi Illadha Saranam. I got a good name. I don’t have faith that a heroines can win with glamour alone. There will be sensation for few days if we act in glamour roles. Only acting can earn a good place. That doesn’t mean that I won’t act in glamour roles. I will act in glamour roles where there is scope for acting also. There are lots of controversial films. I would like to act in such kind of controversial roles. We can confidently act in these kind of roles if the film is directed by directors like Prabhu Solomon.”

Nayanthara planning to quit acting

Nayanthara has started to reduce her films. Her films in Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu and Kannada were recently released and were great hits. Because of this she has become the number one actress of the year. Her salary has also escalated. Offers are pouring on her. But she has not accepted any new films. Now she is acting only in one Telugu film titled Ram Rajyam. She declined to act in a film which had Venkatesh in the lead role. There is also news that she is likely to marry Prabhu Deva and has also plans to settle in Dubai after her marriage and that is the reason that she is not accepting new films. When asked Nayanthara whether she is going to quit acting, she said,” I have decided to take a long rest. There is nothing more to tell. They had called me to act in Savithri which had Venkatesh in the lead role. Though I liked the story, I was not able to act in it because of my personal reasons.

Devi Sriprasad says that why he makes the actresses sing

Music composer Devi Sriprasad gives opportunities to actresses Andrea and Mamta to sing in the films that he composes music. Because of this there are lots of rumors about him.

Devi Sriprasad while speaking about this said,” The latest trend is to use new voices. There are actresses who are well versed in music. I am making them sing in the films that I compose music.

In some of my films Mamta has already sung and Andrea has sung for the film Manmadhan Ambu. It is a routine thing for these kinds of rumors to erupt.

I am least worried about all these rumors. In between the Kuthu and disco type songs, I am giving importance to melody songs. I see to that there are at least two melody songs in the films that I compose music. I have planned to release a musical album. I will decide this next year.”

Chikku bukku Movie news

Chikku Bhukku Benny dayal, Ragul nambiar, Maya, Sree Charan
Lyricist: Pa. Vijay

This must be the intro song of the hero in the movie. With its naughty ‘Tanglish’ lyric and hip-hop rhythm the songs is lifted up by the vocals of Benny Dayal and Rahul Nambiar. The techno grooves clearly remind the music directors belong to Indipop genre.

Oru Nila

Artist(s): Shankar Mahadevan, Chandreyee Bhattacharya, Uma Padmanabhan
Lyricist: Vaali

Opens with Tamil chaste greetings by Uma Padmanaban and then Shankar Mahadevan invites with his flavoured voice. The delightful tune has utter north Indian beats and rhythms for the background that alienates you a bit. But Shankar Mahadevan and Chandreyee Bhattacharya and a better lyric manage to salvage. Repeated listening may increase the life of this song much like early ARR songs. Pick of the pack.

Zara Zara

Artist(s): Benny Dayal, Lavanya
Lyricist: Pa. Vijay

Zara Zara is fast, energetic, youthful, electronic beats. Must be a travel song where hero and heroine cover some distance together singing this song. Peppy throughout but what does Zara Zara mean in Tamil guys?

Smile

Artist(s): Suchith Suresan
Lyricist: Pa. Vijay

The Latino feel in the song sounds different. This song is to bring the upset girl friend back to her good moods. Guitars accompany most of this casual song which is fresh and vividly colourful. The relaxed tempo suits well for this song. Singer Suchith Suresan has done well.

Thooral Nindralum

Artist(s): Hariharan, Wadali Brothers
Lyricist: Vaali

Opens with a prosaic invocation of love. The singing begins with supportive vocals in a Sufi Qawali stye by Wadali Brothers. The chorus gives a period folksy feel reminding the songs of recent ‘Madaarasapattinam’. The tablas and flutes unleash predictable rhythms. Hariharan puts life into the songs with his melodious voice but the Wadali Brothers nullifies his effort. Wonder why so much Hindi lines are added to this song? Is the heroine Shriya is from Punjab in the film?

Vizhi Oru Paadhi

Artist(s): Adnan Sami, Sujatha
Lyricist: Vaali

Adnan is great for his Hindi numbers but for Tamil he is still not ready. It’s not a techno trance song where words hardly matter. A very good melody somewhat spoiled by Adnan Sami though the brilliant Sujatha tries to save it. Very poetic words in the song elevate the romantic thoughts. This song would have been one of the most cherished melodies of the year had it been sung by a seasoned Tamil singer. Colonial Cousins have missed a great opportunity.

Adi Saarale

Artist(s): Pradeep Vijay, Suvi
Lyricist: Pa. Vijay

This song is the only pure romantic duet in this album and the shortest. Rain songs usually lend a lot freedom for all to experiment with their creativity and this song is one to prove. Starts slowly to reach the high notes and then meanders touching many different interesting rhythms. Multiple violins show the many shades in love and loneliness.

To sum it up, the Colonial Cousins have done better than their first film ‘Modhi Vilayadu’. But still they aren’t able to touch the right chords in Tamil. They still like to play around with their Indipop style that made them stars up north. With a Hindustani Hariharan and the Western Leslie this duo could have done much better. One good thing in the album is that you can infer the situations the songs will be placed in the film.
