http://thatstamil.oneindia.in/movies...gam-kamal.html

கமல் ஹாஸனின் மருதநாயகம் படத்தை ஆஸ்கர் ரவிச்சந்திரன் தயாரிப்பார் என்று செய்திகள் வெளியாகத் துவங்கியுள்ளன.

கமல் நடித்த தசாவதாரம் படத்தைத் தயாரித்தவர் ரவிச்சந்திரன். இந்தப் படத்தின் மூலம் அவர் தனது பேனர் பெயரான Oscar என்பதை Aaskar என்று மாற்றிக் கொள்ள வேண்டி வந்தது. Oscar Academy-ன் எதிர்ப்பு காரணமாக இந்த மாற்றத்தை அவர் செய்யவேண்டியிருந்தது.

அதன் பிறகு படத்தின் பிஆர்ஓ உள்ளிட்ட பல விவகாரங்களில் கமலுக்கும் ரவிச்சந்திரனுக்கும் ஏழாம் பொருத்தமாகிவிட, கமல் கடைசி நேரத்தில் தசாவதாரம் சம்பந்தப்பட்ட எந்த நிகழ்விலும் பங்கேற்காமல் தவிர்த்தார்.

இப்போது, ஆஸ்கர் ரவிச்சந்திரனுக்கும் கமலுக்கும் மீண்டும நட்பு துளிர்த்துள்ளது. இதன் விளைவு அறிவிப்போடு நின்று போன கமல்ஹாஸனின், மர்மயோகி, மருதநாயகம் மற்றும் தலைவன் இருக்கின்றான் ஆகிய மூன்று படங்களில் ஏதேனும் ஒன்றைத் தயாரிக்கப் போவதாகக் கூறி வருகிறாராம்.

குறிப்பாக மருதநாயகத்தை ரூ 200 கோடி பட்ஜெட்டில் தயாரிப்பது பற்றி ஆலோசனை செய்து வருகிறாராம்.

இதனை ஆஸ்கர் ரவிச்சந்திரனே தன்னைச் சந்திக்கும் பத்திரிகையாளர்களிடம் கூறிவருகிறாராம்.

RAJINI'S DRAVIDIAN MOVIE

The success meet of Mynaa was held at the Park Sheraton Hotel in Chennai today. The cast and crew were all present at this function. Udhayanidhi Stalin, under whose production banner the movie was released, spoke highly about the movie. He said that the movie was released with 160 prints initially but owing to popular demand, 40 more prints have been developed. "Due to outstanding public response, theatres are now showing 4 shows of Mynaa instead of two shows", he added.

Director Prabhu Solomon was ecstatic about the film's success. He said that his biggest compliment is when Rajinikanth spoke highly about the movie. He praised Thambi Ramaiyya's role in the movie and was fully in appreciation for the actor.

Rajini's letter

Rajini has sent a signed letter to the director of Mynaa Prabhu Solomon. He has mentioned that every man has a beast in his heart. Owing to society and our traditional values, we don't let others to see it from close. But it so happens that the beast unleashes itself in certain circumstances which is beyond the control of human mind. Since I have lived and grown among those kind of people in the society during my early days, I can easily relate myself with the movie. "I could see those characters I have confronted in my life in Mynaa", he has mentioned.

Praising the efforts of actors, he said that each actor and actress in the movie has done a brilliant job which is the evident in this movie. The highlight of the letter is when he mentions "Mynaa is a Dravidian movie. This movie is for every citizen of Tamil Nadu". These kind of movies are a rarity in Tamil cinema. It is like "Kurunji Malar", he feels.

About the crew, he states that Prabhu Solomon has done a very commendable job in directing this movie. Sukumar's camera ensures that the movie is real and not otherwise. The cinematography is a visual treat. D Imman's music complements the movie's intentions very well. He praised the efforts of all crew members, including Thambi Ramaiyya, and said that they have given a visual feast to the audience. Rajini also appreciated the efforts of Shalom studios, AGS and Udhayanidhi Stalin to make this movie a success.

Rajini's only regret, after watching Mynaa, is that he could not act in the movie. "I would have been happy if I had acted in a few scenes in Mynaa", he concludes.
