'Ayan' team in upbeat mood
IndiaGlitz [Monday, March 24, 2008]

It was a star studded press meet that was held to announce the launch of 'Ayan', a movie from AVM, starring Suriya and Tamanna in the lead.

The press meet followed the launch of the function held in AVM Studios this morning (24, March). Almost all the members of the unit attended the press meet and shared a few words with the media persons.

Suriya, who has earlier done 'Perazhagan' with AVM, is doing his second movie with the prestigious company. The story is said to be a romantic comedy laced with lot of action. Suriya plays a cool guy who makes others laugh.

Tamanna, who has got a real break after her good performance in Balaji Sakthivel’s 'Kalloori', is quite happy to act opposite a leading young star.

To view the exclusive stills and video coverage of the event

Director K.V Anand briefed about the title in the press meet. He said that 'Ayan' means outstanding or excellence. The word is there in at least five languages including Tamil, informed the director. It can also mean, said the director, the power from sun rays. “So I think Suriya is apt for the title role.”

Music director Harris Jeyaraj, who is doing his first movie with AVM, informed that he spent 10 days in Mauritius along with the director to compose songs for the film.

Vairamuthu, who writes the lyrics for all the songs, told that 'Ayan' in Tamil denotes the four headed God Brahma. He also showered praise on AVM, which stays on top for so many years. He also quoted a couple of lines from a song penned by him for the movie and attributed the lines to Suriya and AVM.

Suriya recalled his association with the seasoned production company. He also said that the whole unit has understood the responsibility of working on a film for AVM, which produced the blockbuster 'Sivaji'. “I will give my 100 % to ensure the success of this movie”, declared the actor. He also said a few words on the relationship between him and Harris, who has scored music for three of his films 'Khakka Khakka', 'Ghajani' and 'Vaaranum Aayiram'.

The movie, which will go to floors by May, is scheduled to be shot in Malaysia and South Africa. Many of its portions will be shot in Chennai as well.

Keep watching this space for the latest on 'Ayan'.

Surya’s six-pack fetches more!
1 May 2008, 0038 hrs IST,TNN

A still from Ayan.

Cinematographer-cum-director K V Anand has teamed up with AVM for Ayan and it seems like Lady luck is smiling at the team.

It will be a double bonus for hero Surya, who has had to train hard for his six pack. One of the actor’s roles in Vaaranam Aayiram requires a six- pack and it was for this that he had worked hard.

Now, that will be put to good use in Ayan too, going by unit reports. Ayan is an action film and K V Anand made it absolutely clear in the inaugural function itself that that this would be a different Surya we will see in and as Ayan.

Heroine Tamanna already has K V Anand's stamp of approval in as many words from the filmmaker, who has gone on record stating how apt Tammanna is for the role.

She was Anand's first choice to play the lead opposite Surya. Style, action and emotion go hand-in- glove in this film. The simple launch of the film actually keeps the curiosity of the film intact. Watch this space for more.

Filmmakers undergo many hardships to show us unseen and unheard-of locations. When cameraman-turned-director K.V. Anand wanted to show some of the most unexplored and beautiful landscapes in Ayan, he opted for Skeleton Coast and Kaokolan in Namibia. Well, except for a few highly-active persons with wander lust and geography experts, that name would not ring any bells! And K.V. Anand chose the most unusual and unexplored areas of Skeleton Coast to film the song 'Nenje Nenje'!

With red hilly backdrops, white sand dunes, scarce vegetation, trees miraculously surviving without leaves and unimaginable rock formations, the place is something that cannot be envisaged even in one’s wildest fantasies. After spending nights in tents fighting the intense cold (4 degrees Celsius) of this plain, Suriya and Tamannaah had to dance to the tunes of Harris Jayraj during the day, when temperatures would soar to 42 degrees Celsius! Imagine their predicament! But these determined artists and the crew pulled it off successfully.

While you admire Suriya and Tamannaah with the scenic beauty of Africa in the backdrop, one photograph will surely grab your attention – one where Suriya is caught in the act of kicking a baddie. He is seen nonchalantly swinging from the roof of a balcony to deliver his kick; the stunt might have been done with the use of cables, but it looks absolutely good!

The crew also filmed a few stunt scenes in Zanzibar Islands and in the mainland of Tanzania.

Ayan also stars Prabhu, Karunas and famous Bollywood actor Akashdeep Sehgal.

Ayan song shot at Skeleton Coast

Suriya’s forthcoming film Ayan with Tamanna by AVM Productions was recently shot at exotic locations in Skeleton Coast which is situated at the border of Namibia and Botswana in Africa. A song Nenje Nenje penned by Vairamuthu in Harris Jayaraj's composition was canned at this locale.
Talking about their experience, director K V Anand said, “We wanted to shoot a few songs and fight sequences in a foreign country which has not been touched upon by any film unit earlier. Finally we zeroed in on Skeleton Coast, which has unique weather. It was freezing cold at night and during the day it was scorching hot at 40 degrees celsius. We raised a few tents and stayed in the same place, because the nearest village was 50 kilometres away from the location and we would waste time in commuting if we chose to stay there. Despite the weather, choreographer Dinesh did not spare the lead pair and got the best performance from them.”

Ayan – director reveals the story base

The Surya–Tamanna starrer Ayan is progressing day in and day out for an early 2009 release. Surya is reported to have retained his Vaaranam Aayiram six-pack for the movie. Director K V Anand has revealed the source of Ayan's story in an interview to a tabloid recently.

According to him, Ayan is a collage of various real-life incidents that he happened to read in the newspapers over a period of time. "I have a huge load of such newspaper cuttings in my study. I have been reading and observing all the curious incidents reported in the newspapers in the past two years," Anand was quoted as saying. Writer Subha assisted him in building the story and screenplay based on such incidents.

Ayan is based on the life of a youngster who is fresh and out of college and his dilemma in choosing among the million options life lays in front of him. "Surya's involvement in the movie is that of a stuntman who doesn't omit the minutest of details," Anand further said.

Surya talks about his next, Ayan
11 Jan, 2009 06:00 am ISTlTNN
It’s not often that one finds actor Surya admitting that he’s excited about a project. So, when he did, it definitely meant something.“Strangely, I’m not scared this time. There’s only excitement. Usually, a little fear accompanies the excitement just before the release of my films. However, for some reason, that seems to be missing before the release of Ayan,” he smiles. “To be honest, I don’t watch all the movies that are released. But I can say this much, Ayan will be rated as the best entertainer among all my films,” he says and adds “This movie doesn’t have just entertainment, it has a lot of substance and content as well.”

But hasn’t that been the case with most of his movies? He says, “In that case, you can say this movie is fully loaded. In my other movies, you’d find certain portions to be really interesting. However, in this movie, every scene is packed.” The movie focusses on the lifestyle of a particular set of people in the city. “We have heard about them, read about them in the papers and met them in day-to-day life. Their life is filled with fear. The story will also focus on another government set-up which is very strong,” Surya says with a twinkle in his eyes.

“This movie will be a first-ofits-kind in this genre. Any movie made after this will be compared with Ayan,” he continues, adding to the mystery. Very little has been said and written about the movie, which has been produced by the AVM banner and directed by cinematographer K V Anand, considering the fact that the project is quite huge. Ayan, the star discloses, has been shot on a budget that is twice as big as the one for Vaaranam Aayiram.

“When we discussed the script, we realised that a lot of support would be required for this film and it was generously provided. In fact, Guhan sir, on a lighter note, spun a globe and said ‘Choose where you want to go and shoot. It will be done.’” The movie, which has two cinematographers – K V Anand and M S Prabhu, also has an impressive star cast and will see Surya share screen space with Prabhu for the first time. Tamannaah, Karunas and Jagan too are part of the film, which was initially titled Boomathiya Regai (Equator).

“We didn’t know if many people would understand the name and so changed it to Ayan,” Surya explains and goes on to add, “Ayan has several meanings. Unbeatable, unmatched, flawless and Brahma are a few.” The actor promises that Ayan will not disappoint lovers of good cinema. “Another good thing about Ayan is that all the characters in the film are important,” he discloses and states a fact that critics and fans alike would agree. “I am someone who attaches more importance to the content of the film than my image,” he asserts.

It is evident that director-cum-cameraman K V Anand forms part of actor Surya’s coterie from the way he talks about him. “I had to do a photo shoot for Nerukku Ner. The pictures that were taken then were my first for cinema and they were shot by KV Anand sir,” he says.

“I was supposed to do another film with him. But because of date problems, that didn’t happen. So, when others told me that he had a nice subject and was working on it, I was naturally interested and hoped that he had me in mind for the project. By then, there were reports in the media that he had already met me and narrated the script to me,” he laughs before continuing, “The thought that struck me then was it would be great if these reports were true. Anand sir and I worked on a commercial and it was then that he first talked to me about Ayan. He said, ‘I’m working on the climax and we’ll discuss the story’. Later, when I was shooting in Pollachi, he narrated the script in detail to me one evening when we were sitting beside a lake. The discussion ended well into the night. But we didn’t flinch from our places as the story was so gripping. I was very excited.”

The star says the movie has two fight sequences and one of them is so good that it can be taken and used without any modifications in a Hollywood film. Another little known fact is that the star chose to do the fight sequences himself instead of opting for body doubles. On the whole, he seems completely satisfied as he signs off saying, “Ayan is a movie that will appeal to everyone — from a layman to a corporate guy.”

Actually there is nothing wrong with cockiness. Its just our personal feeling that we would like all to be humble. After all everyone is different, as long as she does not do anything stupid, whether she is cocky or not does not really bother us actually. Its her talent that matters.

Surya's Ayan on April 3
By Moviebuzz | Sunday, 15 March , 2009, 19:24

The release date of Surya - Tamannaah starrer Ayan directed by K.V Anand, a Sun Pictures presentation has been confirmed for April 3. It will be one of summer 2009’s big releases.

The film produced by AVM, is an action entertainer and has music by Harris Jayaraj. Akashdeep Saigal, the top Hindi television star makes his debut as a deadly villain in the film.

Ayan has been dubbed into Telugu as Veedokaade, and is going to release simultaneously with the Tamil version.

Koena Mitra the sensuous Bollywood babe has done a terrific dance number in the film.

The views expressed in the article are the author's and not of Sify.com.

Im not too happy with the release date..

AT on mar27 and Ayan a week later

Hope ayan will be pushed to a later date..

Not actually Mahen. The similarity will be clear when you see the two scenes. The position from which the jump is shown the position of the two windows are exactly the same.

Damn, cant figure out the story...

Guys in chennai, im sure you'll know what does the below mean

The movie focusses on the lifestyle of a particular set of people in the city. “We have heard about them, read about them in the papers and met them in day-to-day life. Their life is filled with fear. The story will also focus on another government set-up which is very strong,” Surya says with a twinkle in his eyes.

“This movie will be a first-of its-kind in this genre. Any movie made after this will be compared with Ayan,” he continues, adding to the mystery

Then he better should have appreciated Harris Jayaraj for composing such a song, shouldn't he? :P However, he's right, the only song from Ayan that worked for me and how! Gonna stay in my playlist for some time. And Ayan definitely releasing on 3rd April? Really looking forward to a good entertainer again.

Ayan Movie Preview

Behindwoods review board

Starring: Suriya, Prabhu, Tamanna
Direction: K V Anand
Music: Harris Jayaraj
Production: Tirupathi Brothers

A Waywardly teenager, a youngster and an ageing gentleman – Suriya has done it all in his Vaaranam Aayiram. With an inexhaustible thirst for variety, he is ready for another date with the box office after the critically acclaimed Vaaranam Aayiram. Ayan is touted to be a high energy adrenaline rush experience with Suriya retaining his lately acquired six-pack hinting that there are as much action sequences as much there are romantic ones. And yes, if the promos are to be believed, Suriya drops his shirt flaunting his beefcake appearance.

Ayan has the all-fresh Tamanna playing Suriya’s female lead whose slow and steady rise to stardom is stuff for fairy tales. Ayan will also catapult Tamanna’s status into the big league and as a budding star; this movie is likely to become significant in her career.

And as far as the story goes, we do hear the usual clichés boasting on how the movie is different from the other movies. However, as a step ahead, here, director K V Anand declares that Ayan will rewrite the movie watching experience of Tamil viewers. “Ayan’s theme is completely unexplored in Indian cinema and hence the movie will be an eye-opener of sorts,” Anand was quoted as saying by the media. Besides, Suriya also revealed in a recent press meet that the Censor Board was uncertain in providing the movie’s certificate. All this only add up to the already swelling expectations.

Suriya plays the role of a 25 year old living in the labyrinth called Triplicane. So the requirement obviously demanded him to speak the ‘Chennai Sendamizh’. According to him, director K V Anand’s mastery helped him attain fluency in the dialect.

Originally named Boomathiya Regai, the movie was later rechristened to Ayan, meaning the unbeatable, for want of a crisp title. Ayan is shot in diverse locations including the maze like streets of Triplicane, the lush green forests of Africa & Malaysia and the Skeleton Coast of Namibia. Suriya’s electrifying action sequences are said to be one of the major attractions of the movie. Apart from Kanal Kannan, Franz Spilhaus, a stunt team that worked for many famous Hollywood movies has choreographed the stunt sequences in this film

Ayan also has Akashdeep Saigal debuting in Tamil in a negative role with Prabhu, Vivek and Karunas playing vital roles. Written by K V Anand and the noted writer Subha, Ayan is produced by AVM Productions and distributed by SUN Pictures.

Harris Jayaraj’s music is already topping the charts with footage from the movie being telecast in television channels. The album has 6 songs to its credit.

Ayan is scheduled for release this weekend, April 3, 2009.

ANOTHER REVIEW FRM SURYA COMM

Raghul

At the end it was a nice and neat entertainer...
But you would just have the feeling that the songs were unnecessary at a point, though the songs are chartbusters...
Camera was astonishing... Need not tell about surya's performance... He just came, saw and conquered the entire movie...
But surely does not surpass his previous lot...
One might just feel that the movie was too long building up to the climax...

2.5/5- Watch it only for surya

sari naanae panraen

K.V Anand pushes the commercial cinematic envelope and brings a savvy freshness in treatment and packaging hitherto unexplored in Ayan. It’s breezy, racy, fun ride that keeps you glued to your seats for 2 hours and 38 minutes.
The story may be old as the hills but the narration and the way it unfolds is perfect. The first half is fast and furious, and makes you want more but post interval the proceedings slow down a bit, due to introduction of essential commercial elements like sentiments and an item number.

Deva (Surya) is a post graduate living in North Madras area with his mother (Renuka) who runs a grocery shop. She wants him to get a government job and does not want him to be like his father who was a petty smuggler. However Deva becomes the henchman of Das (Prabhu), the number one smuggler who operates a ‘kuruvi’ (carrier of smuggled goods) service for jewelers like Nemichand and also does video piracy.

In the pre-dominantly Marwadi area, he has a bitter enemy in Kamlesh (Akashdeep Saigal), who can’t digest the success of Deva- Das combination who smuggles diamonds from Congo. Kamlesh is power hungry and will do anything to be one-up on his arch-rival. Soon Deva falls in love with Yamuna (Tamannaah), his friend Chitti’s (Jagan, Vijay TV ‘Njandu’ fame) sister.

Meanwhile Kamlesh due to his greed to get rich and powerful starts dealing in narcotics, which is against the principles and ethics of Deva-Das combo. All this leads to a bloody confrontation between the two as they go for each other’s throat.

The film works due to Anand’s fresh and innovative handling of a wafer thin story. The Surya- Tamannaah fluffy romance is funny and enjoyable. The chemistry between them is terrific thanks to the simple bits of screenplay writing of the director and his dialogue writer Shubha. Move over Vivek & Vadivel, Jagan and Surya is enough to bring the house down with their one liners and neat comedy track, which is the major plus point in the film.

The circumstance leading to Surya meeting Tamannaah for the first time due to the antics of Jagan is a scream. Watch the action and chew on your popcorn as the adrenaline goes pumping. Here Surya is robbed of his diamonds under the orders of the villain Akashdeep Saigal by six tough African guys on the streets of Congo and the subsequent quick running on the streets and roofs and fighting is superb. Franz Spilhaus the action coordinator deserves a pat on his back for the spellbinding three minutes Parkour style chase that you may have seen in a Jackie Chan or James Bond flick.

Harris Jayaraj’s music is peppy and the background score is awesome. The first introduction song Pala Pala… is good, picturised with Surya in all the get-up’s he has done in various films. The Namibia song Nenje Nenje.. is melodious and is sheer visual delight shot extremely well in fantastic desert bordering the sea location in Namibia.

M.S Prabhu’s camera is eye catching whether it is the sepia colour tone in the fight scene or the top angle in the songs, it’s his best work. Rajeevan’s set design to the minutest detail gives you the feel that it is real. Antony’s editing for a change is not in your face and has gone for traditional cut to cut, which goes with the theme.

The casting is perfect. Prabhu as Das the good hearted smuggler is constrained and dignified. Ponvannan as a customs officer is aptly cast, Renuka as Surya’s mother is life like, Karnas is subdued, while Jagan steals the show. However Koena Mitra’s looks wooden, the song sticks out like a sore thumb.

Tamannaah looks beautiful and has arrived as the new eye candy of Tamil cinema and is improving with each film. She has emerged as a firecracker performer, instinctive and uninhibited as Yamuna. Akashdeep Saigal the new villain with his flowing long hair and stylish performance, with Ajay Kapoor (Aadi of Kolangal serial) dubbing for him is refreshing.

Surya belts out a convincing performance as the quintessential action hero and carries the film to the winning post. He looks great and you cannot take your eyes off him. Relying on his eyes and his expressions especially in those romantic scenes with Tamannaah, he shines.

It's a very watchable film with a heart. So go ahead, make your matinee, Ayan is never-a-dull moment action entertainer.

Verdict: Paisa Vasool

bolded lines are for the well wishers of Tamil Cinema.

Surya Starts the year with a hit

From: Thirumaran on 3rd April 2009 07:50 PM [Full View]

Rediff

If Aamir Khan [Images] could make the Hindi version of Suriya-starrer Tamil film, Ghajini [Images], a blockbuster, it's Suriya's turn now to provide a commercial cocktail with Ayan (The One), releasing today. After a sensitive Vaaranam Aayiram, Suriya proves that he just as adept at slamming evil guys and dancing duets in his new Tamil film.

Directed by cinematographer-turned-director K V Anand -- who gave the differently styled Kana Kandein -- Ayan is not just a masala film but a fairly logical one too.

Deva Veluchamy (Suriya) comes home from abroad, speaking perfect English, complete with natty bag, shades and designer-wear. But once he's out of the airport, he meets Arumuga Doss (Prabhu, in a role that suits the veteran to the T), who runs a roaring pirated CD business. Turns out that Deva has been routing the CD of a yet-to-be released movie through customs, where it's zipped to a computer centre and distributed with the help of henchmen like the deaf Dilli (Karunas).

But the authorities smell a rat. Deva gets everyone out of trouble with the aid of a handy fall guy, Chitti Babu (Jagan), who offers to take the rap.

The two promptly become friends, and after a hilarious interlude where Deva ends up with a bunch of call-girls, he literally bumps into Chitti's sister Yamuna (Tamannaah), a B-Pharm student, who rarely seems to go to college. The two fall in love. There's Kaveri (Renuka) as well, who wants to see her intelligent son take up a government job. But he ends up being her eternal despair.

As the characters are sorted out, you realise there's more to Deva and Doss than just pirating CDs; they're engaged in wholesale smuggling with business operations as far-reaching as Likasi in Africa, from diamonds used to fund the local revolution to gold bars from a ship docked in the Chennai Port. But there's one thing Doss will never touch: drugs.

Naturally, there's a villain here too: Kamlesh (TV actor Akashdeep Saigal, making his Tamil debut) whose father has been in the business except that the son wants to be the king-pin, and finds Deva and Doss too slippery to handle. In the midst of it all is customs officer J Parthiban (Ponvannan).

Thus begins a cat-and-mouse game, with one gang trying to outwit the other. Enmity flourishes as they con each other again and again. Deva engages in several stylishly shot fight sequences such as the one in Likasi, beautifully executed by Kanal Kannan.

What gets you by surprise is the thread of logic that laces practically every encounter, and the way K V Anand's screenplay covers all the angles. Yes, there are the inevitable bows to Catch Me if You Can and the unavoidable song and fight situations. But every action, conversation and characters is accounted for and wonder of wonders, here's a villain who actually uses his brains, for a change.

It looks like Suriya's going through a haloed phase in his career: scripts apart, wherever he is, the screen simply lights up. There's simply nothing that can outmatch his screen-presence, regardless of whether he's dancing on the sands with Tamannaah a la Ghajini's Guzarish, or gritting his teeth when bashing up goons. Here, he's back in form as the typical Tamil hero who's larger than life. And he makes it work. Judging by the starting scenes in the airport, it looks like he's had a blast too as he outwits the customs a dozen times.

Tamannaah doesn't have much to do in a movie that's about Suriya. But she acquits herself well in the second half, which requires her to be more than just a fair-skinned bimbette.

Jagan makes you sit up with his laugh-aloud moments and a twist that hits you hard.

Prabhu has taken on the mantle of the older and wiser generation well. As a mentor and smuggler, he's extremely convincing.

Akashdeep is the only one who looks out of place with his screeching dialogues. But his characterisation provides some excuse.

The real surprise package is Ponvannan, who turns in a dignified performance, with slivers of humour.

Harris Jeyaraj's numbers are chartbusters already, with Pala Pala and Nenje taking the cake. But they have little space in a thriller such as this, and slow down the proceedings.

M S Prabhu's camera-work is beautiful; the foreign locales are breath-taking, while the chase sequences put you on the edge of your seat. Antony's slick editing adds polish. Rajeevan's art fits the bill perfectly. Subha's dialogues are spot-on; nowhere do they sound clich�d.

If anything, it's the screenplay that could have been trimmed. The twists come so hard and fast that they lose momentum at certain points. But in a movie with Suriya, reasonable logic, neat characters and cool songs, who's going to notice that?
Ayan is definitely a must-watch.

From: Thirumaran on 3rd April 2009 07:53 PM [Full View]

It’s not everyday that you get to watch a gangster movie, with double-crosses, skillful smuggling, mother’s love and a romantic story tossed in, without having to squirm or probably having to end up with a headache. However, Ayan’s screenplay does the trick – brilliantly choreographed stunts and car chase sequences, cleverly planted twists at every nook and corner of the plot and some good music. Ayan proves to be an absolute time

pass fare. For a little more than two hours, it would be an offense to call Ayan just another commercial potboiler.

Director K V Anand’s research is evident in the tightly packed screenplay and do not miss out the potshots he takes at a few directors in the name of plagiarism.

Slipping logic into your wallet would be a good idea before entering the halls, but it’s unlikely that you would regret doing so. And it is highly doubtful that you would have any time to think about it during the course of the movie. Well, pardon the second half for dragging a wee bit though.

The movie starts off with Surya giving a little tongue-lash for Corporate Houses for treating their employees as mushrooms. A minute later, we realize that he is the trustworthy ally of Prabhu, whose business thrives on illegal diamond trafficking from Africa. With clever strategies and an M Sc degree, Surya flies across the globe to transport consignments sneaking in and out of the airport scanners in style. That’s pretty much the story - and comes with it the evil motives of Akashdeep Segal, a fellow smuggler who crosses road with the Prabhu & Company. Gang war, a friend’s death, love and some dance sequences – Ayan culminates into a rather predictable climax.

The first half of the movie travels at a supersonic’s pace with rollicking humor (sample this: Renuka, Surya’s mother, having filled up an SSC (Staff Selection Commission) application form, asks for his sign at the breakfast table. She returns from the kitchen and drops the dosa in horror only to find out that her son has used the application form to collect all the left over chicken bones). Not to mention, Jegan’s natural sense of humor that hugely helps the movie’s progress. Ayan also spells out director Anand’s conscious effort to avoid clichés, scene after scene, with good reason. The first half also defies the rule of gangster movies with Surya justifying his job to be just ‘time pass’.

And the second half witnesses Surya doubling up as an assistant to the Narcotic Controls Office. Besides, it was also an atrocious idea to include a Koena Mitra item number out of the blue. With her weird nose-job and chiseled cleavage, she does some aerobics. The climax peaks Anand’s unleashed imagination.

Surya and Tamannah make a good pair and their love story is devoid of any clichés whatsoever thankfully. And the brilliant writing in their second meet up scene sparks up their chemistry. Prabhu is quite a natural in his role and his Chennai Senthamizh comes handy. The roles of Jegan and Renuka are beautifully developed and performed.

The only eyesore in the movie is Akashdeep Segal, who with his convoluted facial expressions and bad lip sync just doesn’t get anything right.

Harris’s music is scintillating in the Nenje and Iyaayiye songs and the background score flows with the movie. In the Vizhi moodi number Karthik sizzles. Another noteworthy aspect of Ayan is M.S.Prabhu’s cinematography. Congo’s rustic landscape, Puducherry’s by-lanes and Malaysia’s scenic locales come alive in the screen.

Ayan is fun. Just buy a huge bag of popcorn, a can of cola and have a blast! But do remember the first step about the logic.

Verdict: Packs a punch

Ayan - Absolute time pass

he meets Arumuga Doss (Prabhu, in a role that suits the veteran to the T), who runs a roaring pirated CD business. Turns out that Deva has been routing the CD of a yet-to-be released movie through customs, where it's zipped to a computer centre and distributed with the help of henchmen like the deaf Dilli (Karunas).

But the authorities smell a rat. Deva gets everyone out of trouble with the aid of a handy fall guy, Chitti Babu (Jagan), who offers to take the rap.

The two promptly become friends, and after a hilarious interlude where Deva ends up with a bunch of call-girls, he literally bumps into Chitti's sister Yamuna (Tamannaah), a B-Pharm student, who rarely seems to go to college. The two fall in love. There's Kaveri (Renuka) as well, who wants to see her intelligent son take up a government job. But he ends up being her eternal despair.

As the characters are sorted out, you realise there's more to Deva and Doss than just pirating CDs; they're engaged in wholesale smuggling with business operations as far-reaching as Likasi in Africa, from diamonds used to fund the local revolution to gold bars from a ship docked in the Chennai Port. But there's one thing Doss will never touch: drugs.

Naturally, there's a villain here too: Kamlesh (TV actor Akashdeep Saigal, making his Tamil debut) whose father has been in the business except that the son wants to be the king-pin, and finds Deva and Doss too slippery to handle. In the midst of it all is customs officer J Parthiban (Ponvannan).

Thus begins a cat-and-mouse game, with one gang trying to outwit the other. Enmity flourishes as they con each other again and again. Deva engages in several stylishly shot fight sequences such as the one in Likasi, beautifully executed by Kanal Kannan.

What gets you by surprise is the thread of logic that laces practically every encounter, and the way K V Anand's screenplay covers all the angles. Yes, there are the inevitable bows to Catch Me if You Can and the unavoidable song and fight situations. But every action, conversation and characters is accounted for and wonder of wonders, here's a villain who actually uses his brains, for a change.

Oh man... never expect such a story and racy screen play from KV Anand..

So far, deffinitely the best movie of the year..! IMO, its better than VA..

The movie never bore us even one second.. from title cardto the ending, its very racy... Tamanna and Surya romantic scenes was well documented.. the bazaar scene was

and Vizhi moodi song

I condemn tamanna for being way too pretty

All the artist did their part well.. Surya,Prabhu sir, Surya's friend.. harris BGM was good especially for stunt scenes.. and there were 3 fight scenes.. all was WOW

after a loooong time watched a movie that satisfy me 100%.. A must watch film.. Kudos to KV Anand

It was a total bore
Quite uninteresting from start to finish
Prime reasons: Sireegandh and Kopiga (I thing there was a kadumaiyAna varatchi for a kudumba padam at that time and the extended family had an evening to kill... there is no other explanation for me venturing out to watch a movie with this lead pair)
Prithiviraj istyle
Vivek's kolaiveri mokkai
Songs with constipated women constable

Almost nothing in the movie went well.

Watched Ayan..Theater was full and as usual majority of the crowd were girls

Ayan, IMO, is a perfect time pass film...Screenplay was terrific and that is what that kept me glued to my seat..

Pluses:
- screenplay and refreshing presentation
- songs
- cinematography by MS Prabhu

esp the scenes in Congo and Skeletal Coast. Nenje nenje visuals were better off than guzarish
- Surya-Tamanaah chemistry. The scenes involving the two were damn cute.
-Tamannaah...My little heart cant take it anymore..Shes getting prettier day by day..

-Prabhu..Genuine dada

-Jegan's oneliners
-Surya and his screen presence

Minuses:
-Akashdeep

...Athuvum the annoying voice..The guy who dubbed for him is the same person that dubs for serials
- BGM

Overall Ayan has blockbuster written all over it..

How i wish ajit and vijay do a film like ayan..

ajith has already done a stylish action movie (Billa)..

intha wish vijay will do this ellam summa (i'm not digging you, btw).. even if he does, people will talk about how that movie will end up as one of his usual masala, commercial movie..

i read the review, it looks ok, but honestly it doesn't look (and i won't watch it) anything different from commercial movies that lot of guys are doing right now. When Surya does this kind of movies, most of them say it will be a quality class entertainer, when the likes of vijay, bharat or jeeva does that, they call it usual entertainer.. i'm not sulking, this is the truth.. you can't change that..

kettalum menmakkal menmakkale???

ignorance is bliss.... enjoy.. surya-tamanna ennavoru combinesan..

Watched Ayan in IOI mall 6pm show - full house. also full for 9pm and midnite shows.

Ayan is purely Surya, Surya and Surya. It seems to be a film made for him.

A great actioner along the likes of james bond films. The action scenes are good because: "Franz Spilhaus, a stunt team, which worked for Hollywood movies like The Poseidon Adventure and King Solomon’s Mines have choreographed the stunt sequences in this film. "

But otherwise not a film that will be in his CV. Which is not to say its a bad film; but which doesnt really need a Surya. :P

Watch for cameos of Perazhagan, VA dad, Mayavi etc - he does more getups than Kamal did in Dasa, in one song.

One liners are good (considering the absence of comedian). Asked for pref between Asin and Sameera, he says "namakku eppavumE Jo thaan."

He dons Mum Renuka's choice of shirt and asks whether she got it from Ramarajan

Special mention must be made of the cinematography. One word: par excellence! (is that 2?

)

The most striking minus point in the film is Harris Jeyraj. The songs are unimpressive (after the stunning VA album) while the BGM is horrible, to say the least.

Tamanna

Ayan - a good time pass film, but thats all it is.

Ayan has several meanings - Unbeatable, unmatched, flawless and Brahma are a few. Etymology(roots) of the word dates back to 316 BC.

The movie was initially titled Boomathiya Regai (Equator). The movie has been shot in Namibia (Skeleton Coast), Malaysia, Zanzibar and South Africa.

an average pilm..

average songs, poor Bgm, usual masala story, no comedy at all..

chasing scenes in africa and malaysia are good, excellent photography.

First half, enjoyable. Good laughs. Second half, I got a little bored.

The African fight/chase scene was awesome. Great camera work. It reminded of a similar sequence in one of the 'Bourne' films. Probably KV Anand's inspiration. The new comedy guy was v.funny too!

During the movie, Shankar's Sivaji kept coming to my mind for some reason. Harris' BGM may have had something to with it. Tamanah looked great. Her acting however, erm, needs a little (a lot of) work. I'm worried about Anandha Thandavam if she's got a big role to play in it. I think someone should explain the dialogues that she's saying to her better.

Please don’t call me a commercial director: KV Anand
By Moviebuzz | Monday, 06 April , 2009, 11:33

K.V Anand is all smiles after his second film Ayan has been declared a hit by the trade. But the modest, down-to-earth filmmaker does not think the same way, quite different from other directors who shout from the rooftop that their films are super hits on the day of the release even if halls are empty.

Ayan is freshly packaged family entertainer that’s breezy, racy and full of fun that keeps you glued to your seats for 2 hours and 38 minutes. In this candid interview to Sify.com, KV Anand opens up about the accolades and criticisms that he is receiving.

What is your state of mind after Ayan has been declared a hit?
(Smiles) How can you say that the film is a hit on the third day? I can’t accept it and would like to wait for a week before you give it a verdict. I have been visiting all the theatres and find that women audiences are enjoying it, something which all of us had doubts. On the whole, I am satisfied.

You are being modest. But all theatres have reported full house during the week-end?
I have to thank my producer Mr Saravanan and Guhan of AVM who supported me all through. In fact he called me up after the release and said that the credit of the film taking a great opening was due to marketing of Sun Pictures and the good word-of-mouth among audiences is due to the director. It made me very happy.

The critics say that the item song by Koena Mitra was unwanted and sticks out like a sore thumb. Please comment?
Actually I am surprised at the response I am getting about the film. Some people like the first half while others root for the second half. Regarding the Koena Mitra song, I know that even in Chennai such dances happen in beach houses and private parties. The song was choreographed by noted Bollywood choreographer Ganesh Acharya. And the song is intercepted with some important scenes in the story. Even my favorite director like Mani Ratnam has similar songs in his films. So why blame me?

People just love the scene in which Jagan takes Surya to a brothel which looks like a normal middle class house in the neighborhood. Your comments?
My friends are pulling my leg, asking if I conceived the scene after my personal experience (smiles), but frankly I got the idea from a newspaper report about such houses which operate as brothel. I took extra care about the casting in that scene, as Kalai Rani has only played a good mother to our heroes in all her films and even the girls you see are the girl-next-door types without any oomph. I think that’s why the scene worked with the audiences.

What is the worst comment that you heard so far?
All my friends from the industry called me to congratulate me and the single line they all say is- “Anand you have arrived as a successful commercial director”. I am actually not too happy to hear that and I feel guilty to be called as a masala commercial director, which I am not. My intention was not to make a pucca mass entertainer and I believe that Ayan is a realistic film with logic in every scene. I agree that the film has songs and fights but tell me one single scene that’s not realistic? I have made a realistic film within the entertainment format.

Many reviewers pointed out that the climax of the film was a rip-off of “Catch me if you can”? Please comment?
It was taken from Shuba’s book “Madipadi Kuttrangal” which he wrote in 1988. Moreover many people have mistaken the climax scene thinking that Surya is given a job in customs by Ponvannan. He only asks the hero to fill up the application form and it’s for the audiences to think that only if he is eligible will he get the job!

Read Review: Ayan is Paisa Vasool

Looking back at Ayan what’s the most satisfying thing about it?
It has to be the hard work in detailing, research and realism that my team took to make each and every scene convincing. Be it the customs department, police station scenes, drug trafficking or the smuggling, I can only write the script but it was my art director, assistants, cameraman and every unit member who helped me to execute it well. Surya is complete professional was a great actor to work with.

So what next?
I am off to US for a holiday cum work trip. I will be in Las Vegas for NAB (National Assocation of Broadcasters), an exhibition of latest editing softwares and cameras. I will be attending a workshop and learning more about the latest solutions in audio, video, film and broadcasting. Later I will be spending some time with my brothers in Pittsburgh and New Jersey.

Ayan has a racy script

Malini Mannath
First Published : 06 Apr 2009 12:42:00 AM IST
Last Updated : 06 Apr 2009 12:31:01 PM IST

A meticulously crafted screenplay, some exciting action-chase sequences, stunning locales and some catchy song picturisations, makes Ayan a thoroughly engaging fare. It’s KV Anand’s second directorial venture after 'Kana Kandein'. And the director has weaved in a judicious quotient of sentiment and humour, and a cute love story, into this vibrant, racy, script (KV -Subha) .

For Suriya, who has essayed some serious roles in his recent films, it’s a more breezy character this time. His character Deva is more in the ‘heroic’ mould, allowing enough space to go through the entire gamut of emotions. And the actor cruises through it all with effortless ease and a cheeky charm. His first pairing with Tamannah and their wonderful screen chemistry lends a fresh appeal to their scenes. For the cute vivacious actress, it’s her first step to big-time. Tamannah is a face to watch out for.

The plot shifts ambience, fast and furious, through locales of South Africa and Malaysia, where Deva’s diamond smuggling racket takes him. Ingenuous in his methods of hiding them from the hawk eyes of the customs officer (an impressive Ponvannan), who has his eyes on Deva, and waits for him to make a false move. Deva’s mentor is Doss (Prabhu), who trades the diamonds to a Seth, a reputed jeweler of the place. The latter staunchly believes in the age old adage of honour among thieves,. But not so his son Kamlesh, untrustworthy, ambitious and arrogant. Dabbling in illicit drug trafficking despite his father’s warnings, ,Kamlesh aspires to be one up on Deva. And it was bound to have its repercussions. It’s a finale one would root for. KV’s antagonists are as interesting as his protagonists. If he had introduced Prithwiraj as the suave,charming baddie in his earlier film, here it’s the handsome hunk Akashdeep Saigal (a regular in Ektha kapoor’s serials), who is eminently watchable as Kamlesh,the wayward villain of the piece. Prabhu gets an interesting role as Doss, who runs the smuggling racket, and the actor plays it with quiet assurance. Jegan gets noticed as the Chitty, Deva’s buddy, with a trick up his sleeve. The light banter in the scenes involving him, Tamannah, and suriya is interesting. Karunas may not get to do much comedy here, but he is a significant participant in the story. KV’s technical team has co-ordinated ably to enhance the entertainment quotient of the film, an AVM production, presented by Sun Pictures. The script no doubt has it’s flaws, and it’s few lagging moments. Where you find a couple of fights and an item number forced in. Slick stylised and racy, Ayan is sheer, unpretentious entertainment. You wouldn’t get bored with this one.

From: Anban on 7th April 2009 12:42 AM [Full View]

[tscii] Ayan may not be Tamil cinema’s answer, but it definitely is likeable nevertheless. While the Suriya – Tamanna combo is simply admirable, a fair dose of comedy sprinkled in the fast and furious script makes sure the movie doesn’t lose its pace till the end. Add to it Harris’ hit music, you get the right mix of Ayan.
Trade Talk:
The weekend saw not much frenzy, but with positive initial reviews, the movie is sure to stay here cashing in on the summer vacation.
Public Talk:
Everything about the movie, for now!
No. Days Completed: 3
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 258
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 85%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 67,81,107
Verdict: Good Opening

Chennai Box Office (April 3 to 5)

It was the Ayan attack at the Chennai Box Office this weekend. The film had a very good opening - with approximately 92 per cent in 14 Chennai screens - and the buzz around the movie is positive.

Ayan will surely be popular among the family audiences, and is on its way to becoming the summer super hit. At number two is Yaavarum Nalam, which continues to attract the multiplex audiences (four shows at the second biggest screen at Sathyam Cinemas and three at Inox).

In the third position is Telugu Billa, which opened big in four screens. Pattalam is at number four and Arundathi at number five.

Note : Ratings are based on the box office collections and the cost of the film

Surya excels in ’Ayan’

MY, my. You should see the fantastic chase sequence filmed in Kuala Lumpur for this movie.

They are among the highlights of this latest effort by Surya, the heartthrob of so many women still, even after his marriage to actress Jothika.

Surya returns in Ayan after the success of Vaaranam Aayiram.

And for the first time, Tamil film producers have visited several African countries, including Namibia, to shoot scenes.
Catch a chase scene through streets and over roof-tops filmed at the Tanzania-Zanzibar border. I have never seen such a thrilling chase sequence in an Indian movie.

Cape Town-based Franz Spilhaus, who has done stunts for movies such as King Solomon’s Mines and Bollywood blockbusters like Singh is Kinng and Drona, was the action co-ordinator for this gripping sequence.

Ayan builds on the strength of Surya’s popularity. There is plenty of action, humour and sentiment here to make it top-class entertainment and Surya excels in all the guises he wears in this movie.

The only drawback seems to be the songs (composed by Harris Jayaraj). Since they are hardly chart-topping material, you can see people walking out during the songs to have a break.

For the others stuck in their seats, it can be a torture even if heroine Tamanna is a good-looker. Dancer Koena Mitra (known for her sexy appearances in Musafir and Road) appears in a number but she looks stilted here.

Ayan is about computer student Deva (Surya), who helps Doss (Prabu) in smuggling operations. The villain Kamlesh (Akashdeep Saigal) wants to be No. 1 in the business and wants to literally kill off the competition.

How Deva thwarts his efforts forms the basis of the story. Deva’s trips take him to Malaysia, Africa and other places. So there are opportunities for songs and fights in these places.

Director K.V. Anand (Kana Kandein) is essentially a reputed cinematographer but he has given M.S. Prabhu the freedom to do his magic with his cameras. So, all the scenes look fantastic on screen.

Veteran Prabhu has a role that seems tailor-made for him. It is great that a good actor such as Prabhu is choosing his roles carefully to suit his huge size and age.

Akashdeep is a popular face in Hindi soaps such as Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.

Watch out for Jagan, a TV anchor of Vijay fame, who gives a faultless performance as the hero’s friend.

Following in the footsteps of other Tamil movies with big stars, Ayan has been dubbed into Telugu like Veedokaade and has been released simultaneously with the Tamil version.

There is a belief in cinema circles that when an actor takes the guise of a woman, the movie will be hit. Ayan, Surya’s 23rd film in a career spanning 12 years, has such an opportunity here.

The movie, drawn heavily from real-life incidents, has had bumper collections so far.

Ayan - From a woman's point of view
By Behindwoods Visitor Aparna Chandrashekaran

http://www.behindwoods.com/features/...-10-04-09.html

Taking off from where your other behindwoods visitor talks about Ayan, here's my take as well.

Taking an eight year old to a film can be a challenging task in itself. Being full off beans they want to know if the movie has enough comedy or will Suriya uncle be nice etcetera. Anyway when you have managed to assuage your child’s apprehensions of a film, you realize that the caramelized popcorn is almost over and the film has not even begun. Fortunately the first 20 odd minutes are racy enough to

make you forget that your munchies are over. What begins as an adrenalin rush is over before you can say Congo....

For the first time you have a "bondesque..." look and feel to a Tamil film and while it starts well, it begins to meander into small inconsequential gullies and is soon lost. I honestly would have loved it if the director had done away with all the songs except the first one in the film. None of the others were required and nor did they stay in your mind or hearts.

Gosh! If a heroine is a necessity then why not make her a rival smuggler and give her an opportunity to kick ass with the hero. They can of course eventually fall in love as is usual and then join hands to get rid of the baddie. She can simmer and smolder in an equal role and your glamour quotient is served up as well (though not required at all in my opinion, but considering the blithering idiots among the male population who only go to see that... Well, you can't please everyone I guess...)

Without going into the story of the film I just want to talk about the characters... For an international smuggler with an M Sc degree on the way, Surya is portrayed as an innocent naive boy unaware of cunning wills of the ladies... Now that is too much. Any young strapping lad these days has more than a lick of sense to figure out when the ladies are pulling one over you. He is his charming self and looks great through out and while his acting prowess was never in doubt, it is amazing to see him shake a leg with much more finesse these days.

Tamanna urgently needs to look beyond good costumes (well, the credit obviously goes more to Ms. Nalini Sriram here), a dainty figure and suave dance moves (here again half the credit to the choreographers). In the emotive scenes where she loses her brother, I just couldn't feel a sense of sorrow with her. She just lost me in those scenes. She has done much better in Kalloori or even in her Telugu flicks like KIKK or Happy Days.

First there was the obsession of getting heroines who do not even look Tamilian, then there is the other obsession with importing villains. There are enough men who are a darn sight better looking and can act a million times better than Akashdeep Saigal. Can directors please do away with these caricatures?

The saving graces in most Tamil films these days are the character artists. Be it Prabhu or Prakash Raj or Nasser or any of the other talented artists- they save the film to a large extent and heroes, heroines and directors ought to be a thankful lot to these immensely talented artists without whom these films would not be what they are.

I am not a technophile to comment on the technicalities of the film but the editing does make Ayan stand out and the jazzy background score in the latter half of the film is the only piece of music that stayed in my mind.

Credit is due to the director for an interesting screenplay and for putting together an awesome package. Who can deny the power of packaging and marketing these days?

On the whole, we had a good time and here's hoping to see more such Tamil films...

Regards,
Aparna Chandrashekaran,

Watched the film for the second time with kids in a row.
Ayan was shown in the largest hall in Sunway Pyramid and was almost full. Lots of Malay women

Looks like everyone had a good time as the audience were laughing at the jokes (Ramarajan, Shankar, etc)

Yeah, I think this film will do well in the BO.
(VA was 2nd best in terms of collection after Dasa, in Malaysia last year.)

Ayan is a gangster movie and is not devoid of double-crosses, skillful conman ship, mother’s love or romance. But it’s the screenplay that has saved Ayan from just another potboiler. And of course, Suriya and Tamanna’s irresistible chemistry pays off too.

Verdict: Hit

From: Mahen on 22nd April 2009 12:35 AM [Full View]

Suriya - The Iron Man of Kollywood!
By Moviebuzz | Tuesday, 21 April , 2009, 18:43

The stupendous box-office success of Ayan , has put Suriya in the A league of actors in Kollywood.

At Sathyam Cinemas in Chennai, the film has netted an awesome Rs 81 lakhs in 17 days, which is the highest ever collection recorded for a Tamil film in a multiplex!

In Mayajaal on ECR, Chengalpet area, the film has netted a record Rs 63 Lakhs in 17 days.

Among the younger lot of actors, he is now riding a wave and right there at the top after a hat trick of hits- Vel (2007), Vaaranam Aayiram (2008) and now Ayan (2009). He has zoomed past his rivals, due to hard work and smart marketing.

Ayan is Suriya’s 23rd film and the biggest hit in his career. The way this K.V Anand film is making merry at the box-office, it should collect Rs 35 crores from theatricals alone in the long run.

Added to that Suriya is one of the few actors in Tamil who has got a market in Andhra. Ayan is being dubbed into Telugu as Veedu Okkatte, and releasing soon.

Let us take a look at the smart moves Suriya has made. First and foremost he insisted the film has a basic content and the packaging should have something different. For example in Ayan, the fight in the streets and on the roof when the hero goes to Congo to take delivery of diamonds has been shot in a very realistic and believable manner.

Says K.V Anand, the director of Ayan: “We were very particular that our hero is not a larger than life guy who can fight a dozen guys bigger than him at one go. It was one factor that worked with the audiences.”

Yes, Suriya makes his films look real within the commercial format and does not try to thrust down his “heroism” down the throat of his audiences. It clearly means his fans trust him whether he does a mass K.S Ravikumar/ Hari or a classy K.V Anand/ Gautham Menon film.

Suriya's formula of success is that he works with good directors, reads his script carefully before signing up and does his homework well. He knows that it is up market Chennai, Coimbatore, Chengalpet (suburbs of Chennai), audiences that bring in 70 percent of the revenue for his films in the state. So his films are made keeping the sensibility of these elite ‘C’ class viewers in mind.

Meanwhile the buzz in tinsel town is that his next film Udayanidhi Stalin’s Red Giant Films K.S Ravi Kumar directed Aadhavan has become red hot in the trade. The trade is confident that the film will be sold all areas for over Rs 30 crore, something which competing hero films has not achieved so far!

சூர்யா போட்ட பிரெஞ்சு சண்டை

வெளிநாட்டுப் படங்களை காப்பியடித்து கதை செய்தது போய், சண்டைக் காட்சிகளை காப்பியடிக்கும் புதுக் கலாச்சாரம் ஏற்பட்டிருக்கிறது.
பீமா படத்தில் டோனி ஜா நடித்த படத்தின் சண்டைக் காட்சியை அப்படியே விக்ரமை வைத்து எடுத்திருந்தார்கள். பொல்லாதவனில் வரும் இறுதிச் சண்டை ஹய் *ரிச்சியின் ஸ்னாச் படத்திலிருந்து எடுக்கப்பட்டது. அயனிலும் வெளிநாட்டு சண்டைக் காட்சியை பயன்படுத்தியிருக்கிறார்கள். சூர்யா காங்கோவில் போடும் சண்டை பிரெஞ்சு தற்காப்புக்கலையான யமஹசி பாணியில் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. இதனை அயனின் தெலுங்கு பதிப்பு வெளியானதையொட்டி நடத்தப்பட்ட விழாவில் அவர் ஒப்புக் கொண்டார். யமஹசி என்ற பெய*ரிலேயே பிரெஞ்சில் ஒரு படம் வெளியாகி உலகம் முழுவதும் வசூல் சாதனை செய்தது.

மாடியிலிருந்து சூர்யா இன்னொரு குடியிருப்பின் ஜன்னலை உடைத்துக் கொண்டு தாவும் காட்சி ஹாலிவுட்டின் பார்ன் அல்டிமேட்டம் படத்தில் அப்படியே உள்ளது.
தமிழில் ஒரு படம் வெளியாகும்போது, படத்தில் எந்தெந்த வெளிநாட்டு படங்களின் சண்டைக் காட்சிகள் இடம்பெற்றுள்ளன என்பதை கண்டுபிடிக்க ஒரு போட்டியே நடத்தலாம். சுவாரஸியமாக இருக்கும்.

With the onset of summer and with no other movies in sight, it’s Ayan’s territory now. The Suriya – Tamanna starrer is raking in the holiday mullah with decent collections being reported from all over shunning the election or IPL fever.

Trade Talk:
Trade seems to be busy doing the counting, which was long overdue.

Public Talk:
Is there anyone in Chennai whose caller tune is not from Ayan?

No. Weeks Completed: 3
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 215
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 65%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 46,97,314
Total collections in Chennai: Rs. 4.16 Crore

Verdict: Hit

Watching a Surya movie has become a habit with me, I think! After finding the magazines reviews of the film a bit lukewarm there was some reluctance in me to watch it. And has been too busy too lately. But friends who watched it raved about it. So when a lull came this evening went to the theatre to watch it.

A very fast-paced action movie! The speed is amazing and awesome!

The activities of the smugglers' world are blood-curdling!

Not very disappointing on the whole. PonvaNNan's role is perfectly etched.
The songs are melodious. I plead guilty of liking the hummable lilt of the unintelligible song, 'honey honey'! Googled to confirm the coarseness of the lyrics of that song!!!

Ayan breathes life into Kollywood

The movie is expected to rake in Rs 50 crore

By D Govardan

BRUSHING aside all threats — from the IPL 2 dhamaka and the Lok Sabha election fervour, which is just about picking up speed in Tamil Nadu — Tamil flick Ayan has breathed life into box office collections in theatres across the state.

The action flick, featuring Tamil actor Surya in the lead and directed by cinematographer, KV Anand, has set the box office on fire and has emerged as the top grosser among Tamil films released so far. It is expected to gross in excess of Rs 50 crore. Originally produced by established film production house, AVM and acquired by Sun Pictures, the film has been doing well across all territories, both in the domestic market as well as overseas, since its release on April 3.

“This is the summer blockbuster, partly because this film is attracting all segments of the audience, including women and children,” Hansraj Saxena, COO, Sun Pictures told Financial Chronicle. “Moreover, the film has been attracting a repeat audience, which has become a rarity these days,” he added.
Sun Pictures reportedly acquired the film’s Tamil Nadu theatre and satellite rights for around Rs 18 crore. It palmed the theatre rights off to its regular distributors across the state for around the same amount, but kept the satellite rights with itself.

“The industry expects Ayan to rake in about 60 to 70 per cent of what Rajinikanth’s Sivaji collected and about 80 to 85 per cent of Kamal Hassan’s Dasavatharam, both of which were blockbusters,” says KS Mahalingam, head of distribution at AGS Entertainment.
“If one takes into account its accrued revenue through satellite and overseas rights, besides a few other territories, it will make over Rs 50 crore,” Mahalingam said.

“While the songs in the film have already become very popular, it’s slick production has turned out to be a value addition. It is sure to become Surya’s top grosser too,” said Tiruppur Subramanyam, a leading distributor for the Coimbatore region.

Exclusive Interview: Director K.V.Anand

When interviewed after the release of Shivaji, KV Anand revealed that he was not doing Shankar's next film as he was planning to direct a film again. After a few months, he went on to direct Suriya, the hottest star in Kollywood! April saw the release of Ayan which went on to be the biggest hit in Surya's career, even surpassing Ghajini.

When congratulated on the success of the film, he said that he was planning to visit the USA to attend a meeting in Los Angeles and that he would be visiting his brothers there. This interview took place when Anand was in the US, in time for the release of the Telugu version of Ayan, titled Veedokkade.

How did the combination with Suriya happen?
I knew Suriya from the days of his debut film Nerakku Ner (dubbed as Mukhamukhi in Telugu), as I was the cameraman for that film. In my directorial debut film Kana Kandaen too, Suriya was supposed to do Prithviraj's role but he was hesitant to do a negative role and opted to do Sriram's role instead, but I wanted to take him for the negative role only.

Thus, we dropped the idea of working together for that film and he promised to do another film with me. When we accidentally ran into each other at a studio while shooting for Shivaji, he asked me if I had any plans for him. He liked the short story line I narrated and asked me to work on it. That's Ayan (Veedokkade) now.

So, how was working with Suriya...
Simply put, Suriya is a director's actor who has no hang-ups of a star, and he works really hard. I do not think any other hero would be ready to do scenes like getting beaten by a prostitute, but he did such scenes without a question. I thought people might not accept it, but the response was amazing. People's response was equally encouraging in the scene where Tamannah yells at him. Girls are going gaga over him during songs. I believe he also has a good fan following among college-going youth.

Tell me about the rest of the cast...
I selected Tamannaah after watching Happy Days. I liked her in that film. Our initial choices for the role of Akashdeep were Bollywood actors Arjun Rampal or Dino Moria. Dino and Arjun were expensive and their dates were not readily available. We then zeroed in on Akashdeep.

How are the collections of Ayan?
I do not know the exact numbers, but AVM says that it's the biggest hit among Suriya's films so far!

Ayan rewrites box-office history

Ayan seems to have been released at a time when the Chennai box-office and Tamil cinema in general is hit-starved. Shunning the lull at the ticket counters, the movie is breaking all collection records in the recent past proving to be the first blockbuster this year.

Distributed by SUN Pictures, in the four weekends of its run, Ayan has collected close to 4.16 crores in Chennai alone according to trade reports. The Suriya starrer is showing no signs of tiring as the weekends see repeat family audience, especially women, that has almost become a rare phenomenon at theaters of late. Ayan ran for 215 shows during the last weekend in Chennai and needless to say, all the theatres were bursting at their seams.

a film becoming BB is not based on its collection alone - it depends on its selling price as well.

Ayan need not be providing a profit of dasa or sivaji to be declared as BB - Its hit/superhit/BB depends upon its selling price and collection alone

Athu enakkum theriyum. Ayan was sold for a high price (higher than his previous flicks). Besides, it is said to be the most expensive film in his career. So, taking these two factors and collections so far, I think the best BB record it will get will be SuperHit. IMO IMO... :P

Exclusive Interview: Suriya
By Telugucinema.com | Monday, 04 May , 2009, 17:07

Suriya is one of the few Tamil actors who has won the hearts of the Andhra film goers. Besides Rajnikant, Kamal Haasan and Vikram, he is the only Tamil star who has a huge fan base in Andhra Pradesh. In this interview, Suriya talks about Veedokkade, the dubbed version of his Tamil hit, Ayan. Excerpts from the interview...

Lets begin with Veedokkade. How important is this film to you?
Ayan, the Tamil film version of Veedokkade, is the biggest hit in my career so far. This is a masala entertainer with a realistic touch. It is a movie with an intelligent screenplay in which the protagonist is involved in mind games. There is magic in the movie that keeps the audience glued to the screen till the last scene. Although it is a mass entertainer, we never did go overboard - we were always grounded by featuring logical scenes.

Tell us about your character in Veedokkade.
Veedokkade is based on real life events - culled from various stories that appeared in magazines and newspapers. I play a con man.

Is there any inspiration for the character?
I don’t know how K V Anand created the character but I was inspired from Catch me if you can. While I was doing the movie, I kept De Caprio’s role in mind. Amitabh Bachchan’s films were also very inspiring. Even though Mr. Amitabh played roles that were completely commercial, he brought an element of realism to them and added dignity to the roles. I tried to put that in this film. Some lab technicians commented similarly. They might have seen hundreds of films in their life time and their appreciation made me feel good. I wanted to bring the character to life.

What are the other unique points of the movie?
We shot the movie mostly in foreign locations like Namibia, Africa and Malaysia and introduced the Yamakashi style of fighting. A foreign stunts choreographer did the fights and they have come out so well. And there are two high points in the movie, both happen without my character’s involvement.

Is it true that you wanted to do the other character in the film?
Yes. In fact, I loved the role of a character called Jagan and expressed my willingness to do that role. A comedian has done it now.

You keep changing your looks and style in every film.
I have been an ardent fan of Kamal Haasan. I like the way he transforms with each role in every film. Even if his film fails, he doesn’t hesitate to come up with another novel look or unique character. He inspired me to work hard and try something different.

How did you achieve the look of a teenager in Surya S/O Krishnan?
Usually critics make me put in that kind of hard work. This time my costume designer’s comments made me work hard for the look. The designer teased me that actors just wear different costumes to look like teenagers without changing our physical appearance. So I took up the challenge and lost 10 kilos in 22 days. That did the trick.

How did you lose 10 kilos in 22 days? Can you share that secret with us?
I followed the General Motors Diet Plan. But I changed it to suit to my requirements by adding some chicken and carbohydrates in my diet. I used to burn 1000 calories daily. To achieve this, we should workout, consume more water and also, should sleep for a minimun of 6-7 hours everyday. I weighed 75 kilos before the movie and came down to 64 kilos. I am maintaining the same physique now.

Tell us about the six-pack abs..
It is Aamir Khan who helped me achieve that. He gave me his trainer. I achieved it with inputs from Aamir. He was training for eight-pack abs for the Hindi version of Ghajini then.

Which Ghajini did you like - the Hindi version or the Tamil one?
The Hindi version. It had a lot of new things, and the budget was huge. I liked the changes that were done in Hindi. I believe Aamir Khan pulled it off single handedly. His dedication to a film is amazing. I know how hard it is to achieve the 8-pack physique, especially at the age of 40. He is an amazing guy.

Can you pick up the top 5 films in your career?

1. Nanda
2. Kakkha Kakhaa (Gharshana)
3. Pitamagan (Shiva Putrudu)
4. Ghajini
5. Surya S/O Krishnan

How romantic are you in real life?
I am a very boring person in real life, not at all romantic.

Suriya is proving to be the iron man of Kollywood as Ayan is turning out to be the first blockbuster film in his 23-film-old career. It continues its stranglehold over the CBO and is number one by a mile. At number two is S J Suryah’s Newtonin Moondram Vidhi, which has taken a decent opening, due to the three-day holiday, and word of mouth.

In the third position is the much-loved Pasanga, which has been a slow starter at at the box-office. At number four is Guru En Aalu and in the last position is Mariyadai

This kind of aggressive promotion and the multiplex boom weren't heavily present at that time. You can even assume that Ayan might have bombed (or atleast only make a small profit) had it released at that time.

Yesterday, again saw AYAN ... in a local dvd..

Since the print quality is not clear, i am not interested in focusing much on Tamanna.. so I was able to note a few things / -ves about AYAN

i) I missed first 40 mins (until just before tammy's intro).. when i saw first in theater.. yesterday, i felt, thank God.. I missed those parts.. felt like a mega serial scenes.. esp when Renuka was there ( To LM --- "master naama perusa edhuvum miss pannalai.. except that first fight.. adhuvum verum running & jumping than)

ii) over technical build up scenes whcih actually made me & my friend to laugh... (eg: when they write the new film in DVD.. then mssg is "burn process failed" & other dialogues like "ferric chloride / cobalt etc. to dilute the plater of paris" )

iii) I can't resist from thinking that Surya is over acting atleast in few scenes & some of his mannerisms / body language (in this film) reminds me of Vijay

iv) English dialogues for Surya.. esp. during his intro with Pon Vannan & the chennai slang in the next immediate scene.. konjam over-ah.. thinikkapattadha feel pannaen

Matrapadai.. its an average / just ok film for a non - surya fan

its not a great film or even one of the best films of Surya, but its not a disaster like ---------- either.

fact is Ayan is the greatest hit of the year so far and that its running very well even in malaysia, in spite of several new films - and that too in major chains - speaks volumes about the films popularity.

Watched it today - Not bad at all. Very entertaining and not a single dull moment if you remove the songs/romance scenes and that brothel comedy. Few scenes/ideas are stolen from some western films (Maria full of grace, Bourne Ultimatum etc.) KV Anand has worked hard in avoiding logic mistakes and in some scenes it shows. Definitely worth a watch - much better than VA

From: Mahen on 18th May 2009 11:29 PM [Full View]

Ayan has cooked up and served a perfect recipe for a time pass entertainer with the Surya starrer Ayan. His brilliant screenplay and the pace forces people to travel at the speed of the movie without having to think about the loopholes.

Trade Talk:
Nothing less of a blockbuster, trade reports aver.

Public Talk:
Tamanna can sing! She has actually stretched her vocal chords to its maximum extent on all the Ayan promo shows she appeared on Television.

No. Weeks Completed: 6
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 170
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 47%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 22,95,211
Total collections in Chennai: Rs. 6.46 Crore

Verdict: Hit

I dont understand why BW is not declaring Ayan as BB

Must it reach 10crores to get BB status?

From: Mahen on 23rd May 2009 08:03 PM [Full View]

Ayan released on April 3rd and today it completes a highly successful 50 days in theaters. In the process it has done extremely well for its producers AVM, collecting an overwhelming 7 crores in Chennai alone. It has to be said that the Ayan team got its spot on screen. Director K.V. Anandh came up with a thoroughly enjoyable entertainer and the lead cast of Suriya and Tamanna put in great performances. The support cast too were wonderful with Prabhu receiving a lot of appreciation. The producers AVM must also be lauded for their release strategy which made full use of the 2 month long summer vacations, when many other movies preferred to stay in the cans due to the IPL scare. But, Ayan outlived all such fears and has made handsome bucks for all involved. SUN Pictures which bought the movie from AVM prior to release must also be appreciated for some hectic marketing which meant that the movie was on the minds of people even during the exciting matches of the IPL. The best part of the news is that Ayan does not seem to have run out of fuel. At the end of its 50 days, the movie is still doing very well in many centers of the city including Sathyam, Inox, Mayajaal, Abirami and other prominent theaters. Let’s wait and watch how much further Ayan goes.

Ayan is going to complete 50 days on May 23. Did you expect this kind of success?

When you make a film, you want it to be a hit. Naturally, I wanted my film to run successfully. But honestly, I didn't expect it to be such a big hit. Ayan is said to be the third biggest hit after Sivaji and Dasavatharam in the history of Tamil cinema.

What has helped us is the women and family audience. Only they can make a film a blockbuster. We thought only the young crowd would enjoy the film but to our pleasant surprise, family audience also saw it more than once.

From: NOV on 23rd May 2009 09:06 PM [Full View]

Ayan completes 50 days!
Ajay Kumar R [May 22, 2009, 12:40:38 PM]

Ayan, termed as the biggest Kollywood hit of 2009, has elevated Suriya and Tamannaah (the lead actors) to a different league! Industry experts aY the collection was very strong from the release date and the makers are happy the film has done well, capturing the attention of the classes and the masses!

Some of the commendable aspects of Ayan are the stunt sequences and the songs by Harris Jayaraj. Since K.V. Anand is basically a cinematographer, he has visualized most of the scenes well and has given his best. Ayan, a perfect summer treat, lives up to the expectations of most film buffs.

National Award winner K.V. Anand has arrived as a commercially successfully director, since Ayan is the third biggest hit after Sivaji and Dasavathaaram. One of the reasons why the film has been successful is because it was enjoyed by family audiences and the younger crowds, with many who saw it more than once.

The director has been receiving offers from many top heroes in Kollywood and Tollywood to direct their next venture.

Galatta congratulates the entire team behind Ayan on the successful completion of 50 days!

My parents saw it last Friday. They rarely ever see a movie twice. They insisted watching this again with me. We had a great time !

Liked the movie very much

Easily one of the most enjoyable movies in recent time

The same KV Anand-Subha wrote a total dud last time and put me off. That's why I wasn't interested in watching it for so long. This time they have made a taut, racy, very well written movie.

They deserve the biggest chunk of the credit.

One of the best looking movies. Indernational look-feel. Very inventive shot placements (perhaps KVA himself would have had inputs too). Fight sequences ellAm poRi paRakkudhu.

Prabhu: Gem of an actor and has pulled out a lovely performance. Lots to look forward to from this guy in the coming years.

Even Jagan is quite impressive with his homegrown style. I think it is one of those films where things come together so well that even small (lesser) things appear so good.

Villain was the sore point. And perhaps the story had too much content, seemed too packed after a point.

The thing is one has come to expect such things from Surya and Prabhu. Jagan was a surprise. He had a lot to do and managed to do it quite ably.

Surya apdi enna perusA pannAn in the film? I mean he was good but its not like "Only surya could have pulled that off" I thought that role was tailor-made for pre-Thirumalai Vijay. He would have been as convincing as Surya was.

idhai vechi no competition verayaa? Yaavarum nalam pArthuttu vaanga and comparing Surya and Abhay is blasphemy, IMO. Dev would win over 3-4 movies of surya put together.

nInga solRA mARiyum sollAlAm, avar solRA mARiyum sollalAm. I think he is no match for Surya when it comes to physicality. Screen presence. Think 'aayitha ezhuththu.' It's supposed to be an "easy" role (at least relatively), but one just has to see what Surya does with it. Of course, with Mani Ratnam, it's hard not to be good, but Surya is nothing short of terrific. He's easily the greatest difference between the Hindi and Tamil versions. Again, likable as Ajay Devgan is, one has to say he is poor in this film, much more so if you pit him against Surya.

As much as I appreciate KVA in his efforts to avoid the logic mistakes, I felt the efforts were gaudy in many scenes. As in, "Hey! Look, you can't question my logic in this scene", the fast cuts etc you know and PR waxed eloquent on the lack of subtlety in Suppipuram.

From: P_R on 25th May 2009 11:29 AM [Full View]

Prabhu jokes "nee enakku ivvaLavu naaL aappu vaikkAma irundhiyE adhuvE periya vishayam"
Surya mugam appidiyE surungi pOgum....hurt that Prabhu could even joke like that

First scene when Prabhu and Surya visit Sait's house and they are offered prasAdam (Prabhu is so 'at ease' in this scene), Surya is pretty annoyed and reluctantly takes the sweet.

Many subtle, refined pieces of acting from him

And of course he is 'enjoyable' in the more 'direct' situations like

I recommend Ahista Ahista too, one of his lesser known films. It was written by Imtiaz Ali. The film didn't do well and the critical reception wasn't particularly good either, but I liked it a lot more than most did. And I think it's one of his best performances too.

PiththukkuLi Murugadas was once on a vow of silence for a period. He was staying at an acquaintance's acquaintance's place. The host somehow misinterpreted that he was on a 'viradham' too and took him to be some kind of ascetic given his garbs etc. So he ended up spending a couple days without food , not being able to speak up and ask and not being able to gesture and demand as he didn't know his hosts.

Kollywood arclights fade in 2009 too
Tuesday - May 26, 2009

It started in 2008 itself with the industry witnessing a spate of big-budget flops, this year is no better. With a strike rate of just three hits in 50 releases so far, Tamil film industry seems to be going through a rough patch. The January-May period last year had Rs 170 crore riding on 54 movies and the industry saw an average recovery of 60 per cent.

"The needle has swung more towards the left this time. Kollywood has seen 51 releases this year, made at a combined budget of Rs 159 crore. But, the industry has managed to recoup only a little over Rs 75 crore, a recovery rate of under 50 per cent," according to an entertainment trade analyst.

In an industry where star power is acknowledged as supreme, last year proved to be a surprise, with low-profile movies like Saroja and Subramaniapuram making it big.

This year too, Image Creations' small budget Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu found favour with the audience. Estimated to have been made at a budget of around Rs 3 crore, the movie managed to rake in Rs 7 crore at the box office (BO), despite a debutante director and a cast of rank newcomers.

Vijaya Productions' Danush-Tamannastarrer Padikathavan (distributed by Sun Pictures) opened Kollywood's hit counter this year, earning Rs 12-14 crore at the BO.

"A formula film, it did well at the theatres, firstly, because it was marketed aggressively. And secondly, coming from the Sun Pictures stable, they were able to contain piracy," said an industry observer.

But, the biggest hit so far this year has been Ayan, produced by AVM Productions and distributed by Sun Pictures. AVM sold satellite and theatre release rights of the Rs 22 crore Surya-starrer to Sun Picture for Rs 18 crore.

Released in the first week of April, the movie has grossed nearly Rs 38 crore so far. With Ayan still going strong a month after release, the production house is expected to make good money on the domestic video front.

Barring these three and a few A-centre hits like Siva Manasula Sakthi (SMS), Yavarum Nalam and Pasanga, most movies have failed to break even at the BO. But movies that did well stayed in theatres for more than 30 days, some even 50.

"Average occupancy levels have gone down this year compared to early last year mainly because not many good movies have been released so far," said a senior official of a multiplex in the city who did not wish to be named.

On a brighter note, the number of big-banner flops have gone down in 2009 Q1 - limited to Ayngaran International's Villu, Mariyadhai (produced by T Siva, starring Vijaykanth and Meena) and 1977(produced by and starring Sarath Kumar).

Typically, the April-May period is considered good for releasing movies. But with the ongoing second edition of the Indian Premier League and the election season, many producers have put off release to May-end.

Many years back I saw a play he acted in. It was a play by Madras Players - very Peterish. An 'attempted' localization of a staple stage play 'The Government Inspector'. It was a comedy where nobody was funny. Jagan played a small role and improvised a lot of lines in Tamil ('extremely hungry' then would look at someone in the audience and say 'nee oNdi thunriyE enakku kudEn') in a play which was snootily English. He was very funny but the next day I couldn't recall a single 'joke'. Felt the same in Ayan, he was funny just being the natural without trying too hard to crack jokes.

Extended Classification Information (*SPOILER ALERT* Information may include plot details)

AYAN is a Tamil language action film about a young man who must face the consequences of his life of smuggling when a friend gets into trouble working as a drugs mule for a rival. The film was passed '15' for hard drug use, drug smuggling theme and moderate violence.

The film contains scenes where cocaine is snorted and a packet labelled ketamine is used to spike a drink in a club. Several other scenes involve drug smuggling, some of which feature sight of condoms being filled with drugs and detail of how they are swallowed. Although the portrayal of the drug use and smuggling is generally negative, on balance it was felt that the focus and detail in their treatment went beyond audience expectations and the BBFC's Guidelines at '12A' which state 'mature themes are acceptable, but their treatment must be suitable for young teenagers' and 'any misuse of drugs must be infrequent and should not be glamorised or instructional'. As a result, the film was passed '15' where 'no theme is prohibited, provided the treatment is appropriate to 15 year olds' and 'drug taking may be shown but the film as a whole must not promote or encourage drug misuse'.

The film also features some scenes of moderate violence involving crunchy implied arm breaks, elbows to the face and flying kicks to the body. There is also a scene showing children being gunned down. No clear bullet impacts can be seen, but a brief shot of bodies with bloody clothes follows. All of these elements sit within the BBFC '15' category, where 'violence may be strong but may not dwell on the infliction of pain or injury'.

In addition, the work contains mild language (e.g. 'bullshit', 'shit') and sex references - a woman making a pass at a man while holding a packet of condoms.

This work was passed with no cuts made.

BBFC - UK

Surprisingly not a word is said about the stomach cutting scene. Perhaps they had cut it before sending to UK?

Sivaji DVD was given 18 certification due to 'dangerous use of fireworks'. That scene was cut in the film release.

Mahen, disclaimer - I'm not a big fan of any of the current actresses.

I just told whatever I felt when watching the movie. There are many other current heroines who are very "thuru-thuru" and expressive in masala movies that I've watched recently.

I haven't looked around for pirivom-santhippom's on-screen version yet. IMO, if she acted in the same way like in ayan, she must have been a very big failure as 'madhumidhA'

Suriya’s Ayan has broken records in Mumbai, the heartland of Bollywood! The Sun Pictures presentation directed by K.V Anand has become a super hit and trendsetter in Mumbai territory!

Last week the film celebrated 50 days at Aurora in Mumbai, and became the third highest grossing Tamil film after Sivaji and Dasavatharam, and still continues to be hot at the box-office.

“We are amazed by Suriya’s box-office pull, especially among the youth and lady audiences. In recent time no regional film has done so well in the Mumbai territory as Ayan. And what is even more surprising is that there are a lot of Hindi speaking audiences who have shown an interest in the film,” says Nambi Rajan of Aurora theatre, who is also the distributor of the film.

Meanwhile a lot of Bollywood producers, directors and actors are catching up with Ayan in Mumbai, and are trying to get the remake rights for Hindi. Everybody feels Suriya has a great script sense, and Ayan in Hindi may be the next Ghajini!!

finally it looks like true that ayan IS the next highest grossing film to Sivaji
Ayan still showing 2 shows in a single screen while Sarvam has been reduced to 1 show in only 1 screen

For Sivaji, it ran for 100 days. After the initial boom opening in 4 screens, it continued to run a single show in 2 screens till the 100th day.

No other movie could reach this kind of feat. Looks like Ayan is getting close to it.

No offense to Surya haters

Ayan completes 100 Days!

Surya’s Ayan movie has successfully completed its 100th day today at four screens in chennai. Ayan was released on April 3rd and the movie went on to become Suriya’s biggest hit of his career. The movie is also the first blockbuster hit of the year 2009. The movie domestic distribution rights was sold to Sun Pictures for nearly 16 crores and the movie has grossed more than 50 crores at the box office including 4 crores from Malaysia.

Sources say that Ayan has collected nearly 5 crores which is next to Superstar Rajinikanth’s Sivaji – The Boss, and Kamal’s Dasavatharam. Superstar Rajinikanth’s Sivaji in chennai area collected Rs 6.85 crore share, and Kamal’s Dasavatharam collected 5. 60 crores. Now Ayan has collected nearly 5 crores and has become the third highest grosser of all times in chennai area.

After his Ayan hit director K.V Ananad, Surya and Tamanna has become most wanted stars in Kollywood. With his consistent Box office hits and good performance Surya is on the way to catch the number one spot among Kollywood stars.

Ayan is a huge hit in Kerala too, it seems. Along with Tamilnadu, Ayan completed 100 days in Trivandrum. Varanam Aayiram had a 80 day run in Trivandrum, I read.

The article also says that there is a rush for acquiring the rights of Aadhavan and some have started negotiating for Singam also.

Another related news is after Aadhavan, Udhayanidhi had signed up Surya again and the director would be Murugadoss. Grapewine is Ajay Devgan may play a cameo for the first time in Tamil.

The K.V.Anand-directed Ayan, which stars Suriya, is still going great at the box-office. As per recent reports, the film, which recently celebrated 100 days at the box-office, is most likely turning out to be Suriya’s biggest hit till date. The film’s total collection, from the box-office as well as by way of selling the rights is reportedly the highest for a film starring Suriya.

Ayan, which has Suriya and Tamannaah in the lead, is basically an action movie and has Prabhu, too, in a key role. The film also has sufficient doses of humour and sentiments and it had as its highlight some well-choreographed action sequences shot in Congo.

to be honest, i'm worried as a Ajith fan with his run in BO....but acting wise, he is far behind Madhavan, so no worries

From: NOV on 31st July 2009 01:48 PM [Full View]

Surya is a much better actor than Madhavan.

Looks like he is the only serious contender for Kamal's position in acting department.

it seems even cliche to say "i disagree"

ferfarmans wise, this year, Madhavan in YN and Surya in Ayan - infact no comparison......if anything, given his BO run, surya will further strive to become a mass hero than a good acting talent....moreover, Maddy is (hopefully) going to serve deadly blows to this arguement with his hindi ventures.......he has a far better qualitative lineup of films than surya.....

and NOV, i also believe sivakumar's second son is going to give a hard time to his elder brother

From: NOV on 31st July 2009 02:04 PM [Full View]

sudhir, I had to say that instead of letting it pass.

as I have repeated many times, Surya has performed in varied roles, something Maddy has not yet had the fortune to do so.

YN was a cakewalk that many actors can easily do - you really are stretching it, if you categorise it as a sample of good acting.

if maddy performs well in hindi films, good luck to him, but still that doesnt make him better in tamil films - which is my ONLY area of concern.

as for karthi, why not? I will be happy if more talents are exposed.
but to me it seems your hope is only to bring down surya

well, good luck to your aspirations too.

I think I've said this before too, it's always more useful to consider the potential than just the past. The question is why we've to discuss the old Surya. That Surya was once an actor of negligible worth doesn't say much about the actor he is today. I don't even care about how he used to be. (I don't think anyone does!) If one does agree that his growth as an actor is an unusual story (i.e. can't be explained away by arguing that "anyone can become what he is now, if he or she stays long enough"), there's nothing to talk about the early Surya.

If on the other hand, one does think he hasn't shown enough potential and his performances are just like "another day at the office," yes, there's a disagreement.

Madhavan has definitely acted in equal number if not more films than Surya.

I dont know why you are constantly short selling yourself, if not madhavan. When you celebrate mediocrity, you are settling for less and in fact stunting the growth of that actor. We have seen how good actors allow thier egos and fans to spoil it and become just another.
Everybody need challenges and it with these challenegs that you progress.

You repeat this so often that you make it sound like it is a crime to do different roles and all that matters is acting as an ordinary man.
Frankly speaking EO's direction and screenplay was superb - you can get Jayam Ravi to act in it and he would have done his best role ever in that film.
An actors worth is when he comes out of his comfort zone and performs - thats when you should applaud.

I think you are falling into a trap here. Surya was just an ordinary guy in his first film - thereafter he improved from film to film. Compare Ayan with say Kathale Nimmadhi and you will see gigantic improvements.
This is what I want, not the same kind of acting film after film.
I am sure you are a better writer now than when you started. Then, you must be applauded and so must he.

There has not been a single instance after Mounam Pesiyadhe and Nandha. Even his role in Pithamagan, I would say was equivalent to Arya's performance in AA. Nothing to rave about. He survives mainly because of media hype. I can't tolerate this anymore. I am even comfortable with Jeeva or Bharath in some cases, not Surya. Hatt!

Nerd,
I understand you say that in jest, but seriously it's outright unfair to blame Surya for not delivering the overly "hip" English lines well. I can't think of any actor other than Maddy who can pull off such things. On the other hand, Maddy sometimes comes off very poor when he does different Tamil accents (especially if you pit him against someone like Surya who has really excelled in the "local man" accent in more than a few films). In fact, I'm more sympathetic to Surya here (not because I like him more; I think they're both very good actors and would put them more or less in the same ballpark) because of the subliminal elitist pressure that he has to do the English lines well.

From: Nerd on 31st July 2009 07:25 PM [Full View]

Eq,
His "English" is just one of the reasons. Krishnan was very plastic, all his expressions were forced, and majority of fublic thinking that's a great ferformance just increases my anger. The "son" character was good? No - It was another typical Surya performance. Very much like Maddy's million dollar smile. I don't think acting comes naturally to Surya, he tries and it shows (Krishnan is the best example). YerkanavE pala dhadavai hub maddy sangam saarbila indha kuttrachaattu vechaachu

From: equanimus on 31st July 2009 07:36 PM [Full View]

Nerd,
I think I didn't make my point very clear. I think it's Gautham who should take the blame (a good share of it if not fully). Actually I fail to understand how it is a "typical Surya performance" (not that it makes it any less worthy). All your remarks have been pretty much about how uncomfortable he was doing some of the Hollywood-archetype situations.

Not only that equa, while English is Maddy's comfort zone, some of the tamil accent that Surya pulled off is not exactly his comfort zone. Note this point, yuvar aanar.

Having said that, I have to question all "Surya was super-comfortable in Ayan" theorists. His hip-English attempt in the Airport scene? I mean, Remo thothuduvAn. Same goes for some of the lovvu scenes. Remba kevalamA irundhuche...are you guys sure Ayan was one of Surya's best?

The "romance". There is very little difference between Surya (VA), Gautham(SOK) and Deva(Ayan). And I thought he was over the top in the drug/rehab sequences and suddenly switched to the "artificial kAkka kAkka" mode in his second romaans. Daddy character - suththam. As you said, a typical Anerican daddy wanna-be. I don't have problems with attributing these to GVM, but IMHO VA is certainly not among surya's best performances.

Suriya's English is not all that *bad* IMO but that he cannot be up there in urban peter-meter in spite of his efforts is a different issue and acknowledged. Other allegations rejected

“It is true that we are doing the film, the shoot for which will begin in February next year. Suriya will play the lead in all the versions,” he said, adding that the rest of the cast for the flick is still being finalized.

Suriya will begin work on this film after his current flick ‘Aadhavan’, and his 25th film ‘Singam’. Harris Jayaraj, who has come up with chartbuster tunes for Suirya, from ‘Kaakha Kaakha’ to ‘Varanam Aayiram’ and ‘Ayan’, will be the music composer.“It is a complete action flick but we are still in the process of finalizing the script,” revealed Murugadoss..

The love track was simple and enjoyable right from the funny first meeting and the subsequent scenes(tammu buying cellphone)..Surya-Tammu 's terrific chemistry can be clearly seen in Vizhi Moodi..

Top 10 South films of 2009!

4. Ayan (Tamil film)

Director: K.V.Anand; Cast: Surya and Tamannah.

The film, made under the banner of AVM Productions, became the biggest grosser in the Tamil film industry. Surya, who is growing in stature ever since his "Khakka Khakka" became a hit, played a contract criminal in it. Tamanna oozed a lot of glamour in the film directed by cameraman-turned-director K.V. Anand. The film is considered as the biggest hit after Rajnikant's "Sivaji" and Kamal Haasan's "Dasavatharam ". It raked in over Rs.35 crore.
