If u exactly want the story of Varanam Aayiram, this is it...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_(1997_film) In the Netherlands of the 1920s, Dreverhaven, a dreaded bailiff, is found dead, with a knife sticking out of his stomach. The obvious suspect is Jacob Willem Katadreuffe (van Huêt), an ambitious young lawyer who worked his way up from poverty, always managing to overcome Dreverhaven's personal attacks against him. Katadreuffe was seen leaving Dreverhaven's office on the afternoon of the murder. He is arrested and taken to police headquarters, where he reflects back on the story of his long relationship with Dreverhaven, who, police learn, is also Katadreuffe's father. The story began when Katadreuffe's taciturn mother, Joba (played by Schuurman), worked as a housekeeper for Dreverhaven. During that time, they had sex only once, but Joba became pregnant and left her employer to make a living for herself and her son. Time and again she rejected Dreverhaven's offer by mail to marry her and provide the child with a home. Even as a child, Katadreuffe's path crosses with Dreverhaven, often with dire consequences. When he is arrested for a boyish prank and tells the police that Dreverhaven is his father, Dreverhaven refuses to recognize him as his son. When, as a young man, he unwittingly takes a loan from Dreverhaven's bank to purchase a failed cigar store, Dreverhaven sues him to win the money back. Still, Katadreuffe manages to pay back the debt, finding a clerical position in a law firm. He does this even though most of his education is derived from reading an incomplete set of encyclopedias that he happens to find as a boy in his mother's apartment. After paying back the debt, Katadreuffe implores Dreverhaven to give him a second loan so that he can pass the bar examination. Dreverhaven agrees, on the condition that he can call back the loan at any time. Despite his efforts to hinder his son, Katadreuffe manages to pass the examination. On the afternoon of the murder he storms into Dreverhaven's office to pay the final installment on the loan. A fight ensues, and Katadreuffe attacks Dreverhaven before leaving. All around people see him as he marches out of the office. At the end of the film, however, the police discover that Katadreuffe left Dreverhaven at 5:00 p.m., while Dreverhaven died at 11:00 p.m. It transpires that Dreverhaven actually committed suicide. At the end of the film, his will is produced, leaving all of his considerable wealth to his son. The will is signed "Vader" (Father). |

Having done the police officer’s role for Kakka Kakka with consummate ease, Surya is donning the robe of a naval officer for one of his roles for Varanam Ayiram. As a matter of fact, Surya plays four roles for the Gautam directed flick. With one of his friends employed in the naval forces, Surya is learning the nuances the naval uniform demands from him. Varanam will have ‘Boys’ Genelia and Divya playing opposite him. Now, isn’t that only fair to have four lead ladies with four Surya playing different characters? Well, may be they are scouting for two more, what say? |

Surya bares his six pack abs http://im.sify.com/sifycmsimg/may2008/Entertainment/Movies/14665887_suryaabs2.jpg Surya bares his six pack abs for sify Surya has really done the impossible. He has managed to get the six pack abs that any youngster would die for and it was not an overnight phenomenon. Along with his personal trainer Alkhas, he was going through a rigorous routine and a strict diet for 4 months to get the six pack. http://im.sify.com/sifycmsimg/may2008/Entertainment/Movies/14665888_suryaabs1.jpg The reason for developing this six-pack is, for his role in “Vaaranam Aayiram”, where it demands it. This transformation is to get into the skin of the character he plays was deliberate. Suddenly he looks the fittest action hero in Kollywood, with his “Rambo” like chiseled abs. http://im.sify.com/sifycmsimg/may2008/Entertainment/Movies/14665889_suryaabs3.jpg Surya confessed that it was Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan who introduced him to Alkhas, who came down to Chennai and monitored Surya’s diet and workouts. He was forced to follow a very strict diet. The actor feels he was successful because he maintained his diet regime strictly and did not touch any rich oily food or carbohydrates http://im.sify.com/sifycmsimg/may2008/Entertainment/Movies/14666294_suryaabs5.jpg Now Surya’s female fan following are going to increase, and the young generation considers abs as the in-thing, for that great “shirtless look”, made popular by Salman Khan and SRK in “Om Shanti Om” is going to catch up in Kollywood. http://im.sify.com/sifycmsimg/may2008/Entertainment/Movies/Tamil/14666353_suryaabs8.jpg Says Surya: “I’m glad that I took fitness seriously, because as a hero who does action scenes, it’s got to look convincing on screen.” Surya combined his diet along with exercises as crunches, hanging leg races etc. His good friend ‘Acme’ Ramesh imported some machines for Surya’s use at his private gym. |

Click on the link to see the Picture - http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/photo.cms?msid=3008001 ‘Abs’olutely great: Surya. (TOI Photo) Power packed 4 May 2008, 0000 hrs IST,Sreedhar Pillai You just have to hand it over to Surya. That this guy could essay all kinds of role and get into the soul of any character he played, we all knew. But could you ever have imagined his bronzed body highlighted with rippling muscles, bulging biceps, terrific triceps and six-pack abs? Not possible, you say? Well, what do you know. Surya is indeed showing off a whole new body. Move over SRK and Sly Stallone, Surya's the new guy on the block with the hottest body this season. Surya's beefcake look has everything to do with his getting into the skin of his character for Gautham Vasudev Menon's Vaaranam Aayiram. And before you can say dumbbells, you realise Surya's never looked this fit before with his Ramboesque chiseled abs. Speaking to Chennai Times at his well-equipped personal gym, the actor, thrilled with his image makeover, says "It took a lot of hard work and sweat, nearly four months of a controlled diet and workouts to build my six-pack abs. No pumping steroids or popping pills for me. I am proud of it." Since the film demanded that Surya look this fit and muscular, the actor got into the act right away. "A mean and macho look is necessary in the second half of the film, where there are a lot of action scenes. After discussing with Gautham, I decided to go for this look to make my role, in which my character ages from 16 to 64, look convincing. ." It was around this time that he bumped into Aamir Khan, who is doing Surya's Ghajini remake in Hindi. Khan advised that Surya go for a trainer and be "systematic and devoted" to this body-building commitment. "In Mumbai, I got introduced to Alkhas, who was recommended by Aamir, and decided to give him a try. He came down to Chennai and monitored my diet and workouts from middle of December, at a time when I had the thin pencil like look for my character's younger days. In the beginning it was difficult, what with my busy shooting schedule, but slowly I got used to it and even started liking it,” says the actor with a chuckle. Surya was forced to follow a very strict diet. The actor feels he was successful in losing 10kg because he followed his diet regime religiously and did not touch any rich oily food or carbohydrates like white rice, pastries, sweets, white bread or red meat. He combined his diet with workouts and exercises, such as crunches and leg lifts. One of his close friends had imported some machines which were set up at his gym and he used to do all his exercises there. Alkhas also taught him the importance of cardio workouts and strength training with weights to build muscles, so as to raise metabolism in order to lose weight and burn fat naturally. Added Surya: "The small frequent meals raised my metabolism and helped me build lean muscle mass. I' m glad I took fitness seriously, because as a hero who does action scenes, I have to look convincing on screen." The only thing he missed was his frequent eating-out with his lovely wife Jyothika. Says Surya with a tinge of sadness: "Jo and I are foodies, I miss my mom's homemade food the most. Jo does not like to go out with me, because I don't touch the food we order. Earlier, we always used to share her favourite dessert brownie with vanilla ice-cream at the end of the meal." However Surya can take heart that he will be the only hero in Kollywood with a six-pack abs. According to a survey conducted recently, most women consider six-pack abs as the most attractive part of Hollywood and Bollywood hunks. Today more than half a dozen Bollywood stars are working on their abs, including guys like Shahid Kapoor, who says, " Sexy muscle is a symbol of a fit andhealthy man". As Surya concludes- " I have started liking this look and will maintain it for my next film Ayan. Initially it took a while for the idea to sink in, but now I'm comfortable with my new look." Surya's rippling six-pack abs will create a new trend in the male- dominated Kollywood, where physical looks hardly mattered till now. |

A fitter, younger and smarter Suriya Express Features Whoever said Tamil actors were all about flab and hanging bellies just have to see actor Suriya now. The actor, who is now working with Gautham Menon on Vaaranam Aayiram, has worked hard on his look and developed a six pack abdomen. One of the requirements of the script was that he had a well toned body. In Vaaranam Aayiram, Suriya’s screen age spans from 17 to 65 years. What is now a visibly toned body required the actor to work out rigorously for eight months under the strict supervision of a skilled trainer. The result of that is a leaner, muscular Suriya, all set to send his fans into a tizzy. The first hero in Kollywood to train hard and achieve the elusive six pack abs, Suriya reveals, "It was the character and the script which inspired me to work towards achieving this lean, muscular look and a six pack. I felt It would lend more credibility to the character I am playing." m expresso@epmltd.com |

Gautham - abt VA Maybe that will happen with this film. Tell us about Varanam Aayiram – without spoilers, of course. It’s the story of a young man on the verge of life. He’s not an extraordinary human being. He’s not a superhero. The film traces his life from the time he is born, and up to a point where he realises he’s made it in life. We see the ups and downs that he goes through. We see his first love, whether he got to marry the girl he fell in love with, what his sister meant to him, what his mother meant to him, and above all, the equation he had with his father, who was an inspiration at every point in his life – including his falling in love. Now, how can a father be an inspiration for that? I’ve said that in the film. It traces parts of my life and the lives of everybody that I know. So is it autobiographical – a sort of biopic of Gautam Menon? It is, in a way, autobiographical. And it is, in a way, a biopic. It’s a very personal story. And if people didn’t know that 70% of this is from my life – let’s say we didn’t say that at all – what I’m hoping is that the guy next to you in the theatre will say, “Machan, this has happened to me.” Of course, there’s a little bit of fantasy. When Surya sees the girl on a train, for the first time, he can’t take his eyes off her – and he’s somebody who’s never looked at a girl like that – and the first song that comes to his mind is En iniya pon nilaave. So he pulls out his guitar and sings that song for her. That’s where a bit of fantasy, the commercial element, comes in. But I think this might happen in real life too. If Varanam Aayiram comes out well (and I hope it will), it will be my best film till date – because it’s straight from the heart. It’s emotional. It’s not unnecessarily commercial Divya - abt VA BW: What is Vaaranam Aayiram about? Divya: It’s the life of one man, from childhood to old man played by Surya, and how we all form a part of his life, how we enter and exit his life. It’s the relationship between this man and society. It’s a very, very interesting life story. An Indian Forrest Gump? Where did you hear that? The director, Gautham Menon, seems to have said something like that. Well, I guess if he has….then maybe there’s something to it. |

Director Gautham Menon stated that Harris Jayaraj has always shown special interest for his projects and it was only because of Harris he could establish himself in the Telugu film industry. He added VA is all about a person’s life beginning from 16 years and his travails until 60. He said the film will hit the silver screens on October 8th in all probability |

http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-music-reviews/review-1/vaaranam-aayiram-music-review.html
The title is evidently borrowed from Andal’s Naachiyar Thirumozhi ,a Divine Song. How Andal’s visualization of marrying the Lord with ‘a thousand elephants’ all around her( vaaranam aayiram) fits in with this movie remains to be seen. Directed by Gautham Menon, produced by Oscar Ravichandran and starring Surya, Sameera Reddy, Simran, Divya and others, this film is supposed to be a soft romantic one which parallels incidents that generally happen in everyone’s life. Gautham seems to have shaped it with a lot of love and care and with Harris Jayaraj scoring the music (after his rosy output for Dhaam Dhoom) expectations have reached an all-time high. Ratnavelu’s cinematography is also supposed to be evocative here. Harris has tuned seven songs here. Adiyae Kolludhe--- Vocals: Krish, Benny Dayal, Shruti Haasan Lyrics: Thaamarai Some heavy guitar stuff here to begin with and heavy rhythms to go along with it too. Clearly targeting Pop and Heavy Metal fans. Both the male singers use a slightly rasping voice. Shruti is a welcome find. Her voice sounds slightly nasal. Could do with a little honing. The song surprisingly speaks of soft sentiments contrary to the music! Nenjukkul Peythidum--- Vocals: Hariharan, Devan, V.Prasanna Lyrics: Thaamarai The guitar works magic in this song. Seems to be patterned on country music, the kind you hear from John Denver and others. The initial notes go ’sa ri ga pa gaa sa;ri paa---‘ all soft and flowy and the lyrics smoothly tag along. And when Hariharan’s rich voice combines with all this, the charm is all the more noticeable. Seems set on the Natabairavi scale. The way the keys ,humming and the guitar combine is soothing Yaethi Yaethi--- Vocals: Benny Dayal, Naresh Iyer, Solar Sai Lyrics: Na.Muthukumar It is based on middle eastern rhythms but the song is totally pettai stuff and full of boyish bravado, so to speak! Set to Karaharapriya scale, the song has drums, guitar and some whistling sounds built attractively into it. Not original, but fun. And fun too, to see Muthukumar come out with such stuff! Mun Dhinam--- Vocals: Narash Iyer and Prashanthini Lyrics: Thaamarai Again a soft number like ‘Nenjukkul’ but pitched on a higher scale. With the result that sometimes the male voice croons and the lady’s voice sounds shrill. Looks like Harikamboji scale and apart from the delightful guitar, we have two lovely sax interludes the first which goes ‘ma ni nii pa, ma ni nii pa’ and the second ‘pa dha ni saa rii—‘.Soft lyrics that sing of love asserting itself. O Shanti Shanti--- Vocals: Clinton, SPB.Charan Lyrics: Thaamarai Yet another soft number where you have the refrain’ O Shanti Shanti’ repeating from song two with slightly altered lyrics and pace. Is there a visual continuation here? A small trumpet-like interlude breaks the monotony in this song. Well sung too. Ava Enna--- Vocals: Karthik, V.Prasanna Lyrics: Thaamarai This song truly reflects what Harris is capable of.. A very interestingly conceived song with slight sruti variations that add charm to the whole piece. Karthik is faultless in rendering. The lines ‘onnukkulle onna en nenjukkulle ninna’ that carry the notes ‘ma pa maa ga maa pa, dha ni pa dha ni dha pa ma ma’ are very attractive. And the guitar, sitar, thavil and native drums combine so beautifully after the first minute. Tender sprinkles of guitar and santoor, sometimes drums and ghatam need to be savoured here. Though we have some Anandabairavi shades, the raga scale seems to be Harikamboji. Interesting! Anal Mele--- Vocals: Sudha Raghunathan Lyrics: Thaamarai An exceptionally well composed song on the Natabairavi scale. And rendered with perfection by Sudha Raghunathan. We have some nice sitar and violin pieces woven into the song. Especially in the first interlude where the sitar goes ‘ga saa sa ga saa sa’ very melodiously. Some interesting swara patterns repeat through the song, which reveal the raga to be what it is and not Sindubairavi as it sometimes appears (you do recall Nenjinile Nenjinile’ from Rahman). Could stay on the charts easily for some time for its plaintiveness. Verdict:**** The guitar simply enthralls you. So do the native drums. There is a slight monotony in the instrumentation, but it doesn’t seem to affect the overall effect. Thaamarai needs to be complimented for the soft lyrics. If the movie delivers half of what the album has managed to give, we have a blockbuster in our hands! |

In an orthodox old-fashioned film industry that thrives on star-worship, one man has the spine to call a spade a spade. Gautham Vasudev Menon is one of the few of our filmmakers who is man enough to take criticism without flinching. Yes, MAN is the word because Vaaranam Aayiram is all about the essence of being the man you look up to. Being the man who can sweep the girl off her feet with his strength, poise and courage. It’s an emotional personal film straight from the heart for Gautham, considering it was born out of his father’s death. “Three days after he passed away, I decided I must do this film. I went through a lot of emotions when I came back from the funeral and when I sat to write the film a week later, I thought I could put all that into the film as a tribute to my father.” No action film Vaaranam Aayiram, he underlines, is not an action film. It’s a coming-of-age drama where boy becomes man. “Because at every point, when you are young and discovering life and what it’s like… with the evil lurking around the corner or a love that hits you and at every point, I thought that the father could be the inspiration which is how it was for me.” There is no commercial thought that dictated the content, he says. “Pachaikili had a climax for the hero. For Kamal Sir, we gave a 20-minute intro which wasn’t there in the first script… Everywhere, I was toeing the line. This time, I thought let me make a film that deserves what it needs and nothing more. So I was thankful for someone like Suriya who straightaway said ‘Yes’. At the Filmfare Awards, I remember him calling me and saying: I hugged my Dad on stage after I worked on this project. I knew people would think it’s for show but I realised it was a great moment to hug him because at home, I’ve never hugged him.” Any influences? “If you say it reminds you of Autograph, I would be happy because I love that film and I like Cheran as a filmmaker. I’ve grown up watching Raj Kapoor films because my Dad asked me to watch them. I like the way music wasn’t thrown in and takes the story forward. So those are influences but I’ve not copied any scene... But just like Forrest Gump sits and talks about his past, here when a set of memories are triggered by an incident, his whole life unfolds before him.” Did he make Suriya starve for the six-pack? “Definitely not,” he laughs. “When I narrated the script, I said I also wanted to give a small message to youngsters that if at all you are going through a low phase in life, working out and pushing yourself to the limit might be a good way to overcome anything instead of smoking and drinking. So Suriya said: ‘I’ll do a six-pack.’ But when I saw what he was doing, I told him not to do it. There were times he wasn’t eating breakfast and skipping meals. He pushed himself.” Gautham also shares a special relationship with Harris Jayaraj. “When I took Pachaikili, he said, ‘Don’t do it’. Your audience is expecting a big film. This time, we’ve done a Gaana. It’s a first for us. I got up and danced like how Suriya would dance (we hadn’t shot the song) and so I danced like for one minute. He laughed his guts out and then worked the groove out. He trusts me completely and I trust him. We’ve done 35 songs and not even once, have I said I don’t want the song after listening to it.” Being a successful filmmaker, he has to deal with escalating expectations and uncontrollable hype. “I don’t think I have a fan base but Pachaikili proved that people have certain expectations of me. That’s when I started thinking maybe you should be careful but then, that’s bad. Because you start writing for the audience and you can’t make a film you want to make. So somewhere you have to balance that.” |

And guys, check this comment by Gautham:
"Gautham Says: vijay, this is me, gautham. You wanted one- on-one. What do you mean by that? You mean you want to take me on is it? You could have said that instead of one-on-one. You used that because it came to your mind in usage first right? I write like that too. I write what comes to my mind. And it’s not inspired by hollywood b-grade films. It’s the english i was taught in school and college and it’s the english i talk. The cop saying freeze in KK was approved by many cops with whom we discussed the screenplay. And we really thought ‘raghavan instinct’ was a cool line, not at all inspired by any film mind you. We laughed all the way to the bank with that film. And what, nobody has said ‘ make love to me ‘ to you? Only upper middle class women use that term or what? I guess you haven’t met any good women then in your life. It’s ok vijay, ten out of hundred need not like my films. I make films for myself and the other ninety. Your loss that you are in the other ten. And you want to bring me down to earth, sure…Or do you want to write my screenplays? If you think you are better,then i invite you to write a screenplay for a film with the correct language and take it to an actor and narrate and make it into a film. What say vijay? And if the film should only have tamil words, then i shouldn’t be using non tamil actors too right? So your logic about english in my films sucks. Or maybe you should watch only films made by seeman. It’s ok to comment vijay but how do you know i watch b-grade hollywood films? Have you been to my house? Oh yes, you have, the last film i borrowed from you was called ‘ i give a damn about you’.." http://www.desipundit.com/baradwajrangan/2008/06/05/interview-gautam-vasudev-menon/ ![]() |

Two weeks before Diwali (Oct 27), there is total confusion prevailing in the market. The trade is not sure which film will release for Diwali! The producers and distributors are not confirming any release date.
As of now, the two films that are sure to hit the screens are Ajit's Aegan and Bharath's Seval. Both the films are being marketed by Ayngaran International, who has also booked theatres for these films. However Ayngaran is keeping the release date a secret, so that opposition (read Aascar Films Vaaranam Aayiram) is kept at bay. It looks like one of the Ayngaran films will release on Oct 24 Friday and the other on Monday Diwali day Oct 27. It ensures that both the films will not clash, and also take an opening. Meanwhile the tussle over who will release Vaaranam Aayiram, between the producer and Gemini Picture Circuit (GPC) has been settled. GPC will release the film throughout Tamilnadu, while Aascar will release it in the rest of the world. Now the trouble is GPC is finding it difficult to sell the film to distributors, as they are asking for a high price, and no theatre bookings has been made so far. The market buzz is that they have paid a whopping Rs 14 crore, to get the Tamilnadu rights of the film, twice the price at which Surya's last film Vel was sold in the state! |

Triangular contest this Diwali!
October 13, 2008 Fans have been waiting with bated breath to know if their favorite star's film will hit the silver screens this Diwali. And the good news is that three big films – Seval, Aegan and Guru En Aalu – will be out on Diwali day! However, Suriya's fans will be in for a little disappointment as his Vaaranam Aayiram is due to be released only in November. Another Aegan much expected film, Abhiyum Naanum is due to hit the screens a few days prior to Diwali. Seval, the Bharath starrer, is directed by Hari – the master storyteller. Aegan, which has Ajith in the lead has been directed by choreographer-turned-director Raju Sundaram, is the most expected film. Guru En Aalu, the Maddy starrer, is directed by Selva who has wielded the megaphone for Naan Avan Illai. This film is slated to be a comedy and has all the elements of a commercial blockbuster. |

1. After watching Gautham's interviews, I'm pretty sure his characters are heavily influenced by him

He is a natural, and got a good accent to boot with. He sounds authentic. 4.

Gautham buys back VA from Gemini! By Moviebuzz | Wednesday, 15 October , 2008, 12:25 In a sensational development, Gautham Menon has brought back the Tamilnadu theatrical rights of his magnum opus Vaaranam Aayiram from Gemini Picture Circuit (GPC), for a rumoured price of Rs 20 crore! The trade is dazed by this news. Remember we had reported a few days back how VA Tamilnadu theatrical rights were sold for Rs 14 crore to GPC, by Gautham after the original producer refused to hike the price, as the film was done on first copy basis. Now GPC, is a making cool Rs 6 crore profit on their investment made more than a year back. Gautham wants to be in total charge of the project as the film is an ode to his father Vasudeva Menon, who passed away last year. He wants the film to release for Diwali (Oct 27), at all cost. All the vexing issues regarding the film have now been sorted out. Gautham’s own Photon Factory will now look after the films release. The skeptics in the trade say Gautham’s buy back of Tamilnadu theatrical rights was at a very high price. Can a Surya film recover the Rs 20 crore from theatres in the state? His last release Vel a super hit has done business worth only Rs 14 crore from TN theatres. But Gautham is confident that Vaaranam Aayiram will be a mega hit if it is released this Diwali, and he will surely cover his cost. Gautham Vasudeva Menon, has once again proved that he is Kollywood’s gutsy trendsetter and a man willing to take risks. The views expressed in the article are the author's and not of Sify.com. |

Vaaranam Aayiram postponed to November? Esther Sunita [October 17, 2008, 1:20:23 PM] Vaaranam Aayiram (VA), which was two years in the making, has been acknowledged by Gautham Menon to be dedicated to his father, Vasudev Menon’s memory (he passed away last year.). The title, a phrase from Andal's ‘Thiruppavai’, literally means the strength of a thousand elephants. The movie has a lot of expectations riding on it as Suriya and Gautham Menon have come together after the defining cop-movie Kaakha Kaakha (2003). To top it all, Harris Jayaraj has composed seven brilliant songs, which have already zoomed to the top of the charts. Recently, Gautham Menon bought back the rights of the movie from Gemini Picture Circuit (GPC) at a whopping Rs. 21 crores, which means that GPC made a profit of Rs. 7 crores as they’d bought it over a year ago at only Rs. 14 crores. Now, the distributors are sceptical about the pricing of the film and that has further delayed the release of the film. Vaaranam Aayiram, which was initially supposed to be released on October 23rd, a day before Aegan, is now expected to release some time in November. |

Young Surya goes through a gamut of experiences in his life: he gets bullied by his roguish school seniors, battles an intense infatuation, is thrashed by street rowdies for a trivial fault and embarks upon adventurous experiments with his friends. All these are part of his growing up years; some trifle with his budding manhood and associated feelings while others teach him life's worthy lessons. Yet the experiences continue; each happening and its consequence adds a significant dimension, chiselling his expanding maturity. He slowly graduates from unassuming boyhood and teens, reaches adulthood and progresses to become a composed family man. |

arris Jayaraj splits with Gautham!
By Moviebuzz | Thursday, 13 November , 2008, 16:55 In a shocking development, noted music composer Harris Jayaraj has announced his split with director Gautham Vasudev Menon! Harris, through his PRO Nikhil Murugan has issued a statement saying that he is parting ways with Gautham. Gautham and Harris debuted together in the 2001 romantic musical Minnale, which had outstanding music score. The pair established themselves as one of the most popular director-music director combination with foot tapping music in films like- Khakka Khakka, Vettayadu Vilayadu, Pachaikili Muthucharam and their latest Vaaranam Aayiram. Now, Harris in his statement issued to the press says-" I have a very good respect for Mr. Gowtham Menon and in return he has reciprocated the same. But now, things have gone sour that it's better for us to part ways as good friends leaving behind some beautiful memories with a heavy heart. I have to take this decision on behalf of us. I know this might disappoint my fans, music lovers and well wishers in the industry. It's best for us to leave it at this, since I always believed that to create soul stirring music, the bond between a Music composer and the director is vital. Once it's lost, it is difficult to get back". It could not have come at a worst time, on the day before the release of Vaaranam Aayiram! Harris told sify.com: " What will one do, if a marriage goes bad? You have to split! Anyway I wish him all the best." Harris said that he will not be attending today's (Nov 13) red carpet premiere of the film, as he has a recording! The views expressed in the article are the author's and not of Sify.com. |

Gautham Vasudev Menon's Vaaranam Aayiram, has taken a fantastic opening even before release!
The film's advance booking opened on Wednesday (Nov 12) in Chennai's 10 screens and the response has been awesome. At Sathyam Cinemas, the 936- seater big screen has been sold out for the first five days, in Inox they have given 9 shows during the weekend and it is sold out for the first six days, a new record! Sangam, Abirami, Albert and Shanthi too it has been sold out for the weekend. In Mayajaal, the film will have 36 shows daily and almost 65 percent of the tickets for the weekend have been sold out! Most of the bookings in all theatres are through the internet, showing Surya's growing fan base on the net. In US the film is opening in 21 screens (a new record for a Surya film), and having premieres across North America, according to its distributors Bharath Creations. |

Vaaranam Aayiram Review: First on Galatta.com
Padma Iyer [November 14, 2008, 3:02:20 AM] It is has been sometime since we had a movie that touched the heart. Vaaranam Aayiram is that movie. It touches you deep inside and brings forth several emotions at once. It makes you laugh. It makes you cry. It makes you angry. It makes you sympathetic. Every incident you see in the film will remind you of an aspect of your own life. That's how real this Gautham Menon film is. And Suriya's performance is one of his best till date. Adding charm to the film are Sameera Reddy and Divya Spandana. But Simran takes the cake from both these actresses with her sincere and real performance. Amazing camerawork and great music makes this movie a definite watch. It is impossible to talk about or “review” a movie such as Vaaranam Aayiram without turning it into a spoiler. So all we will say is, watch it, be moved, be inspired and be touched that after a long time, someone has made a movie which a is a beautiful blend of reality and fantasy and through both these realms, manages to capture the essence of a human being. |

Gautham Vasudev Menon is back with a film straight from the heart. The director, who believes in meaningful cinema, is trying to push the cinematic envelope with Vaaranam Aayiram.
The film is clearly meant for niche audiences, and not for mass viewing. It is a tribute to the director's dad, who passed away last year. The treatment and narration are purely autobiographical with most of it taken from real life incidents laced with cinematic liberties. In a nutshell, the film is personal and deals with the deep bonding between a loving and devoted father and his son who is trying to discover himself. Menon's life story may be woefully long and meandering ( 2 hours 55 minutes) with a great first half, but post Interval, it lags. Still it works and grabs us where it matters and leaves a lump in your throat. |

Vaaranam Aayiram – Review
Behindwoods Movie Review Board tarring: Suriya, Simran, Sameera Reddy, Divya Direction: Gautham Menon Music: Harris Jayaraj Production: Aascar Ravichandran Gautam Vasudev Menon’s Vaaranam Ayiram is intended to be a biography of an ordinary man. What could have been a subtly told story turns into a sloppy fare with way too much of daddy-glorification and emotional I-love-you-and-I-see-you-in-everything-dialogues. However, this memoirs-of-my-dad would have been a wonderful watch if it did not adopt a schmaltzy narrative often, more often than you think actually, interrupted with songs. Gautam has derived inspiration for Vaaranam Ayiram from his own life and hence the movie is by and large close to real life with only very few scenes seeming out of place. Like the middle-class Surya, whose dad struggles to keep up with his family’s expenses, flies down to the USA in search of his love-at-first-sight Sameera - now that is far fetched. However, as clichéd as his love might seem, his sufferings sound more genuine – a feeling that the ‘Anjale’ song only upsurges. The movie opens with an older version of Surya, suffering from throat cancer, succumbing to his disease. With the bare minimum background score and subdued acting, the scene helps to mound the expectations for a few minutes. The news then is conveyed to the son, played by Surya again, who is on a defense operation somewhere in Kashmir. The rest of the movie is the son’s reminiscences of his father – the son’s role overriding the father’s in the process, however. The first half of the movie drifts away with nothing significant in the offing. In less than half-hour, it breaks into two songs. Surya (dad/son) falls in love twice and loses the love of his life. The second half, however, spruces up with the kidnap episode and the journalist rescue operation. Vaaranam Aayiram is an out and out Surya show. When the man disrobes his tee to flaunt his rippling muscles acquired after hard slog, the ladies scream their lungs out. His subtle expressions after losing out his dad to cancer score as good as his screams and emotional turbulence after losing his girl. Surya Senior’s makeup screams for attention, though. Simran comes a close second with her puffed eyes and refined articulation of emotions announcing that she is ageing gracefully. Sameera has a constant grin, which is adorable. But all she could come up with after seeing her stalker at her doorsteps in the US is a surprised expression after getting a scoop of her favorite ice cream unexpectedly. Surya – Sameera’s first meet in the train is well conceived and executed. Divya, however, is in her quietest form oozing loads of sophisticated attitude. There are touching and heart-warming moments in the movie; however, they are few and far between. Like the scene in which the cancer patient dad expresses his helplessness in telling stories to his grandson since his vocal chords no longer support him and Simran’s emotional silent outburst when she is being told that her husband is about to start his final procession to the burial ground. Harris’ music complements Thamarai’s lyrics with almost all songs, albeit termed as interruptions, hummable. And as Sudha Raghunathan breaks into the Anal Mele song in her unconventionally mellifluous voice, the movie’s sluggish pace is curtailed. Adiye Kolluthe, partly rendered by Shruti Hassan, seems to mark the beginning of Tamil punk-rock. The three hour long movie advocates non-smoking heavily and hits the smokers hard with the harsh reality of its consequences – cancer, for instance. Verdict - Surya show! |

Selva, I saw the movie today AN. IMO, the movie definitely will not go Varalaaru way at box office, instead it will go Kireedom way. My prediction - Collections at box office will take a nose dive very soon. It is purely my opinion. It seems that they made the movie to get awards. The movie is too slow. The movie is dragged, dragged and dragged like a goods train. The length of the movie particularly the second half will test your tolerance. Star of the movie is HJ. ![]() ![]() For me Vaaranam Aayiram - Saadaranam (Since my expectations were very high on this movie) For masses Vaaranam Aayiram - Aaradhana ranam. Vaaranam Aayiram means Thousand elephants. After seeing the movie, I conclude that it is mere Sand elephants(except HJ). Secondly, I had the doubt that whether this movie requires Rs.14 crores budget. The movie will not be lauded by TN people(masses). The movie is certainly for film critics and music lovers. |
