Mammootty film not an entry for Award - Why ? Chiyaan fans in loincloth in theatres - Kerala snub for Rahman

Chiyaan Vikram fans answer to critics The opening day of Thangalaan in Chennai was a shocking surprise to some. At the theatre was a huge bunch of fans clad in loin cloth, long unkempt hair. They were dressed like Vikram was in the film. Not only that, they screamed and behaved like they were from the Stone age. This frightened some kids at the theatre but all the same was a big hit. Some say that Chiyaan was pissed off when a reporter at the Madurai function of the film promo was asked why he had less fans than Vijay and Ajith. This loin cloth guys were to show that he had as crazy as can be fans too. Though his answer to the reporter was not an exact answer but a below the belt reply and uncalled for., Opening Day India net stands ar Rs 18 crores.

Mammootty ‘s Film Kampany the Producers of Nanpakal nerathu mayakkam never submitted the film for National awards. A R Rahman score in Aadujeevitham the Malayalam film went unnoticed by Kerala State Government Film jury. When Nanpakal was submitted for FilmFare awards South and it got Mammootty the best actor, why was it not send to National awards ?. First reason could be that the actor is a CPM supporter and so he knew that there was no point in entering it. Does that not deny other technicians and actors who worked in the film from competing for National awards ?. Anyway Mamootty fans can stop crying foul . Coming to Kerala Film awards which was announced o same day. Legendary AR Rahman who scored music for Aadujeevitham was bypassed and instead Best background score went to Mathew Pulikal for Kathal The Core and Best song Director to Justin for Chaver. Blessy Director of Aadujeevitham which won 7 State awards voiced his disapproval and also pointed out that one song from the film had been a hit across many languages. “The song Periyone was a hit and was accepted and appreciated globally. I saw videos of children in relief camps after the Wayanad landslides singing the song, and even sent them to him. We expected him to win a state award today for the film. The jury failed to recognise the legend,” he said.
