It seems that Mani Ratnam has decided to add few
scenes between STR ( Simbu) and Trisha in Thug Life and so a fresh round of
shoot in New Delhi is scheduled. Thalapathy Vijay will start work on 69 project
from November 4th. Viduthalai 2 directed by Vetri Maaran and with
Vijay- Sethupathi- Manju Warrier – Soori is set for a December 20 release. Now
it seems that a few portions are to be reshot and that features VSP.
Kamal and Rituparno Ghosh would work together in a
Bengali film. This is not the first. Kamal reveals that he played a ventriloquist
role in a Bengali film Kobita and it has Mala Sinha as the lead. It was remade
in Hindi as Jeevan Dhara with Amol Palekar in that role. Kamal reveals that
apart from Bengali dialogues, he also had a Bengali song sung by Kishore Kumar.
As we report this, we hear that Irrfran Khan’s son
Babil’s next after Quala is to have Krithi Shetty as the heroine. It was seeing
ARM the Malayalam film starring Tovino Thomas, that she was decided as the
heroine. For Tamil audience she came in Custody that was directed by Venkat
Prabhu with Naga Chaitanya as hero.
Thalapathy Vijay pointed out that at his career peak,
he was shifting to politics. It is not only his career high but also a
Kollywood high, as per trade reports. Now only one high remains to be achieved
and that too with Thalapathy 69.
Industry is divided into Pre Covid and Post Covid
period. In the Post Covid, SEK, Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Prabhas, and Amitabh
Bachchan from Bollywood reached the a cumulative Rs 1000 crore mark. The first
from South is NTR Jr after Devara release.
So far in
Kollywood, the first actor to reach this mark will be Kamal Hassan after Thug
Life release. Next in line is Thalapathy Vijay. With just Rs 90.90 crores, he
will touch the Rs 1000 crore mark and this will be achieved with H Vinoth film.
In fact, with G O A T , it was to be got but fell short. Here is the figures :
- Beast – 131 crore
- Varisu – 178.80 crore
- Leo – 342 crore
- The Greatest Of All Time – 257.24
crore
Total
– 909.04 crore
Kamal needs only Rs 21 crores to reach Rs 1000 crore.
If Indian 2 had worked, he should have got into the club.
Vikram
– 255.09 crores
Kalki 2898
AD – 642.45 crores
Indian 2
– 81 crores
Total –
978.54 crores
Kalki too slowed down and made Kamal miss
the mark.
