By Moviebuzz | Friday, 23 January , 2009, 20:06
It's official that Trisha is Dhanush's heroine in Vetrimaran's new film tentatively titled Aadu Kalam to be produced by Kathiresan.
The shoot of the film will start on February 16 in Madurai and surrounding areas.
In the film Trisha will play an Anglo- Indian girl who sort of reforms the rowdy hero and will be wearing skirt and blouse. Nalini Sriram will be her dress designer.
The film is said to be something totally different from the usual commercials and Dhanush has an author backed role. G.V Prakash is the music director.

Vetrimaran prefers Trisha to Shriya!
When director Vetrimaran signed up Dhanush for his new film it was said that announced that he was going to retain almost the same crew and cast of Polladhavan, except Divya Spandana. It was said that Shriya would play heroine as the character of the Anglo Indian girl suited her. But it is learnt that the director decided against casting her again for this flick because of issues with her dates, and she was already paired with Dhanush in her forthcoming Kutty. Now that Vetrimaran has opted for Trisha as the heroine. This is the first time that Trisha will pair up with Dhanush, in this film which will have music by GV Prakash Kumar. Shoot for the Madurai-based story is likely to begin next month.

It's official: Trisha to pair Dhanush
Charming Trisha will pair with Dhanush for the very first time in the second venture of 'Polladhavan' director Vetri Maaran. The yet-to-be-named film will start shooting from the 22nd of this month in Madurai.
Interestingly, Trisha would be playing a role which would be completely new to her. She plays a Madurai based Anglo Indian girl who eventually falls in love with a street smart 'loafer' Dhanush. A lot of effort is being made to bring out the authenticity of the characters. Apart from Trisha having to train as a pucca Madurai Anglo Indian, Dhanush too will appear in a never-seen-before appearance. The actor is currently preparing to be armed with the Madurai diction along with the necessary body language needed for the character.
Though not much is known about the film, there are a few who say that the story is based on a real life incident that happened in Madurai decades ago. Vetri Maaran is known for his neat screenplay ability that brings about a stunning effect on audiences. If 'Polladhavan' stunned audiences narrating the story of a boy who finds his motorbike stolen, this new film is expected to have many twists and turns that have the potential to enthrall audiences.
Not divulging much about the project, director Vetri Maaran said, 'Dhanush is a much bigger star now than he was when we worked for Polladhavan'.
Would that also mean this new film would be much bigger than 'Polladhavan' Vetri Maaran?

Dhanush and Trisha to tango in 'Aadu Kalam'
IndiaGlitz [Thursday, February 12, 2009]
The cat is finally out of the bag….the film that brings Dhanush and Trisha together for the first time has been christened 'Aadu Kalam'. Directed by Vetri Maaran who had churned out 'Polladhavan' earlier, the film is expected to have a riveting storyline based on a real-life incident that happened decades ago in Madurai.
As reported earlier, Dhanush is currently undergoing rigorous training to suit an intense role that would have all the makings of generating a spellbinding performance. He plays a Madurai youth and as reports have it, he would appear in a never-seen-before appearance. His mastery over the Madurai dialect is mighty important for the film and the lanky actor is keen to get it right.
Dhanush is currently riding on a giant wave of success with a hat trick of hits. He sure would want to back this success with performances that would interest and appease audiences. Keeping this in mind, Vetri Maaran's style of filmmaking would most certainly be the right foil for Dhanush. Though just one film old, the 'Polladhavan' director has proved to be quite powerful with his style of narration.
'Aadu Kalam' will have Trisha playing an Anglo Indian girl who falls in love with Dhanush. Societal problems however are expected to play a major role in this love affair.
Madurai plays such a pivotal role in the film that director Vetri Maaran has started an office in the Temple City to absorb the essence of the place to the fullest. Such a move is the first of its kind in the history of Tamil Cinema.
'Aadu Kalam' has already generated a lot of curiosity that Sun Pictures has acquired the yet-to-be-shot film and would be involved in marketed and distributing it. Shooting for the film begins in Madurai from the 22nd of this month.

Will Dhanush, Vetrimaran duo repeat the magic?
February 12, 2009
The earlier Polladhavan Combo Dhanush and Vetrimaran are joining hands for their next venture named 'Aadukalam'. The director Vetrimaran has done enough ground work in Madurai and is likely to start shooting from February 22 onwards. The movie is based on a true story.
Dhanush is doing his homework to get his Madurai accent right, as this will play a major impact in the film. The movie is expected to concentrate on 'cock fight' famous in these parts of the region. This is one of the reasons why the director has chosen the name 'Aadukalam'.
Riding high on success, Dhanush has to prove himself once again to the audience. The director though new with only one movie to his credit has gained appreciation for his style of narrating stories.
As stated earlier in these columns, Vetrimaran has opened an office in Madurai especially for this film. This shows the involvement in the project and the audience can expect a treat from the duo once again.
It is stated that the film will be marketed and distributed by Sun Pictures. It is expected that Trisha will act with Dhanush for the first time.

Dhanush starts work on Aadukalam
By Moviebuzz | Tuesday, 24 February , 2009, 12:03
Articulate yet guarded, cheery yet serious, Dhanush has all the reasons to be on top of the world. Three hits in a row is not a joke for this young actor, who has seen the up’s and down of the industry.
Dhanush is just back from Bangkok, where he spent the valentine weekend with his lovely wife Aishwarya. But its back to work for the young actor as he is in Madurai on location of his new film Aadukalam with director Vetrimaran who had given him that critically acclaimed box-office hit Pollathavan.
Says Dhanush: “For me, every film or every role that I work on is special. But Aadukalam is super special to me and I would say that it is my dream project. I have always admired the directorial sense of Vetri and he has an innovative style of film making and has always attempted to explore something new”.
Aadukalam has Trisha playing the female lead with young music director GV Prakash tuning the songs. Remember that Vetrimaran spent almost a year on the screenplay, script and dialogues which has a Madurai dialect. The film is one of those rare projects which has a bounded script. Adds Dhanush: “”I have a lot of positive vibrations while going through the script and I an all excited to work on it”.
The cameraman is Vel Raj and the two crucial characters in the film are played by V. I. S. Jayabalan, Sri Lankan Tamil writer and political observer who makes his screen debut along with Kishore.

Aadukalam has a positive energy: Dhanush
Prasanna Singh [February 25, 2009, 5:17:07 PM]
Dhanush is busy in Madurai shooting for Aadukalam directed by Vetrimaran. Dhanush is quite happy to be working with Vetrimaran again, as he is the director who gave him a big break in Polladhavan. The actor stated that he feels a “positive vibration” working with Vetrimaran on the sets of Aadukalam. He expressed confidence that the film will definitely turn out as good as their previous venture Polladhavan.
Aadukalam is supposedly based on true incidents that took place in Madurai. Vetrimaran had stayed in Madurai for almost 6 months to prepare the screenplay and sought the help of a professor friend to write the dialogues in Madurai dialect.
Trisha plays an Anglo-Indian girl and Dhanush’s love interest in Aadukalam. G.V. Prakash composes the music.

Dhanush to pair up with his lucky gal again
March 13, 2009
Dhanush – Vetrimaaran’s Aadukalam is recently kick-started and the shoots are on. With Vetri showing promising talent in his debut venture Polladhavan, all eyes are on him while he slogs for Aadukalam. Dhanush, however, seems to have decided on his yet-to-be titled project, a Hari-directed flick. This will be produced by Lakshmi Productions.
This project will commence only after Hari finishes his commitments with the Surya - Anushka starrer Singam. The Hari – Dhanush venture is likely to have Shriya playing the lead. The pair has already proved successful in Thiruvilayadal Aarambam and is shooting for an upcoming flick Kutti.

Dhanush & Shriya in Orissa!
By Moviebuzz | Tuesday, 24 March , 2009, 10:26
Dhanush and Shriya is shooting for Kutty on the Orissa- Andhra border.
Director Jawahar decided to shoot in this way-out location as the unit got permission from the railways to shoot in this specific place.
Says Dhanush: “With this schedule, Kutty will be 85 percent complete and then we have planned to shoot the songs on a lavish scale. We are completing the train shots, a song and an action scene here and the film is shaping out well. For the first time, I am doing the role of a rich upper middle class guy”.
In fact, the actor is upbeat about his Vetrimaran directed Aadukalam, which he feels is a life time role.
Says Dhanush: “The Madurai schedule was very taxing but I enjoyed it as I did a lot of home work before every day of shoot and you will see that my looks and body language will be truly different.

Dhanush who is leaving his comfort zone – Chennai. Most of Dhanush’s successful movies have been based in the city with the actor playing the typical irresponsible youth, mouthing the local slang to perfection. It has become a trademark Dhanush trait. But, this time he has chosen to go in for an experiment, leaving the city roads for the rustic lanes of Madurai and a more turbulent story with Aadukalam. The change of base to Madurai also necessitates a sea change in Tamil slang; Dhanush has reportedly trained hard to get the perfect Madurai accent.

Aadukalam is not usual cinema
Dhanush starrer Aadukalam is building up steadily among much speculation. Director Vettrimaran and Dhanush have already set the screen on fire with Polladhavan and their next venture Aadukalam is also expected to make it big.
Speaking about the film, the director said that this is not a usual hero, heroine, villain story. He says this story is different and it does not reflect the positive and negative aspects in the characters, like the customary cinema. The audience will be in for a surprise if they come with an expectation to watch a habitual Tamil film.
Vettrimaran also stated that the delay between his last film and his latest venture is because he took time to study Madurai. The movie is set in the backdrop of Madurai, where Dhanush plays the lead while Trisha plays Anglo-Indian lover. Writer VIS Jayabalan and Kishore also are in the cast. The second schedule of the film is progressing in Madurai

Will Trisha do Aadukalam?
By Moviebuzz | Saturday, 27 June , 2009, 09:58
The big buzz is that Trisha has opted out of Dhanush’s Vetrimaran directed Adukalam.
Remember that Trisha signed this coveted role last February and has shot for four days during the second schedule of the film in Madurai.
However we understand that after signing Priyadarshan’s Akshay Kumar film in Hindi, Trisha will not have enough dates to do the Dhanush project as she will have to complete her current assignments and will be shooting continuously abroad for her Telugu film with Gopichand in Sydney followed by a 20 days schedule of Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya in New York.
After completing the Gautham Menon film, Trisha will go to Europe for a month-long schedule of Namo Venkatesa opposite Venkatesh in Telugu. And according to grapevine, the actress has given bulk dates of over 2 months for her Hindi film, which will be her big ticket to Bollywood.
Adukalam is not a pucca commercial film and will take time to complete. When contacted, no one was willing to comment but the buzz is that Vetrimaran has already started looking for a new face to replace Trisha. Watch this space for more.

Trisha is part of ‘Aadukalam’
IndiaGlitz [Wednesday, July 01, 2009]
Clarifying about reports that stated Trisha might not be part of Vetrimaran’s 'Aadukalam', Trisha has openly stated that she isn’t bidding adieu to South Indian films for a Bollywood career.
Trisha, who is currently playing a challenging role in Vetrimaran’s ‘Aadukalam’, has received three interesting Bollywood films, signing an agreement with Akshay Kumar. It was reported recently that the actress, who is also working on a film with Venkatesh in Telugu, has a tough time juggling dates, because of which she may opt out of Vetrimaran’s ‘Aadukalam’. The film, which has Dhanush in the lead, has its second schedule just on track in Madurai.
But Trisha as now quashed all reports, stating that she always has a softspot for South Indian films, which are her mainstay. “I will always continue doing films here as I’m not looking at making Bollywood my ultimate destination.”
The actress, who has only one schedule of work remaining for Gautham Menon’s ‘Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya’, has not signed any other South Indian project.
//
Trisha was firm on not acting with Dhanush in his early days. Now that he has become a hit hero, she acts with him. What a world.

What say Vettrimaran?
IndiaGlitz [Tuesday, September 08, 2009]
Director Vettrimaran entered Tamil cine industry through ‘Polladhavan’. From the time when the film kicked off, rumours were abuzz that ‘Polladhavan’ had heavy shades of an Italian masterwork movie ‘Bicycle Thieves’. Same way gossip mills are spinning tales that the director’s current project ‘Aadukalam’ is also an inspiration of a successful world cinema.
Meanwhile the film’s heroine Trisha had some problems in adjusting her call sheet and walked out of the project. Vettrimaran is not bothered about anyone and is doing his job as scheduled. He is now shooting the scenes that deal with the hero Dhanush in Madurai. When we contacted the director to know if he had got the heroine, he answers were surprisingly so cool…
“I am shooting the action sequences with Dhanush as of now. Only after I finish these scenes I will look out for the heroine of the film. I have decided to choose afresh face who has never appeared even in a single scene. As the heroine of the film is an Anglo Indian as per the script, the skin tone of the girl will be the only decisive factor. On top of everything, freshers won’t have call sheet problem,” said the director light-heartedly. Hmm… that’s common to pull-off from a project. Now, we are eyeing eagerly around Vettrimaran’s office to capture the exclusive first look of this fresh face. So, catch you all soon with that…

Dhanush gets a Punjabi kudi as heroine
By Moviebuzz | Wednesday, 30 September , 2009, 09:07
Vetrimaran directed Aadukalam is expected to be one of the biggest films of 2010 and that explains why its lead actor Dhanush can’t see anything beyond the film right now.
It’s actually a gruelling experience for him in the tough terrains of Madurai where the film is being shot.
And now the exclusive tid-bit from the Aadukalam sets is that Dhanush has finally found his heroine for the film. The lucky girl is Tapasee (pronounced Tapsi), a software engineer from Punjab.
She is a rank newcomer to films and director Vetrimaran who wanted a fresh face as heroine says that it is Tapsee’s first tryst with the camera, but is a natural performer.
Tapsee , a brilliant student had developed an application for Iphone called fontswap and is all excited about her role as an Anglo-Indian girl in the film. Adds Dhanush: “The film is almost 85 percent complete and as I’ve told earlier, it is going to be a landmark film in my career”.

Andrea singer and actor has now become a dubbing artist. She is dubbing for heroine Tapasi in Vetrimaran’s Aadukalam.
Says Andrea: “ I’ am dubbing for the heroine in Aadukalam, as the character an Anglo Indian speaks in a mixture of Tamil and English and Vetrimaran thought I’am the right person to do it.”
Andrea feels she got a raw deal in Aayirathil Oruvan, where she played second fiddle to Remma in an itsy bitsy role. Says Andrea: “I was disappointed with my role in AO, but I have no regrets as it was a great learning experience.”

Uthamaputhuram released recently and another danush movie in a month time. So its quite clear with sun pics intention. Any leading or star actor wont allow 2 movies in 2 months

CANT ASK FOR MORE
With Uthamaputhiran being declared a hit by the trade,Dhanush is on a new high
Sreedhar Pillai | TNN
With his Uthamaput hiran turning out to be a hit at the box-office,it looks like Dhanushs Midas touch at the box-office is only growing stronger.The trade has declared it as the number one film during the festival weekend (Nov 5 to 7) and claims the son-in-law has toppled his father-in-law at the Deepavali box-office.
Suddenly,Dhanush is all over the place.He seems to speak less as always,but manages to say quite a bit.In an exclusive interview to CT,Dhanush says,I cant ask for more.Uthamaputhiran has reached its target audiences the family crowd and children in particular.People are enjoying my comic interlude with Vivekh in the film.It is a pucca festival film,and is being lapped up by the masses.
Says film distributor,Abirami Ramanathan,I would classify Uthamaputhiran as a universal hit.The film has netted approximately 58 lakhs in three days from Chennai city and another Rs 67 lakhs from Salem area,and is being liked by the family audiences especially for the comedy scenes.
Meanwhile,Dhanush has more reasons to celebrate as the audio of his long-in-the-making Aadukalam is being released today.Says Dhanush,Aadukalam is my dream film.Ive worked really worked hard for it.I play Karuppu,a character close to my heart.The film is set on the outskirts of Madurai and is about a particular community and the crisis within.Director Vetrimaran is sure to get critical as well as box-office recognition with the film.
The star adds that the highlight of the film will be its fresh content and the performance of the lead actors.He says poet Jayabalan,who is playing a pivotal role in the film,is going to be the surprise packet and his face is a big plus for the film,especially those powerful eyes.On heroine Taapsee,he says,She plays an Anglo-Indian girl and my love interest. And hes kicked about the films music,composed by G V Prakash.We rocked in Polladhavan,and the music in this film is far superior.GV has come out with soothing melodies and a mass number, he gushes.
The actor is also excited about his new film Vengai with mass movie maker Hari,for which he will start shooting later this month.Says Dhanush,Im doing my first film with Hari sir,a director who I was very keen to work with.Im teaming up with Tamannaah once again after Padikkathavan.Raj Kiran and Ganja Karuppu will be playing important roles in this mass entertainer. Dhanush reveals that after todays audio launch,he is going to take a much-deserved break for a week to an exotic holiday resort abroad with his family.

Dhanush has not reached ajit/vijay's level...HE is still in the same category as ravi,arya,bharat etc..These guys have no say when it comes to the movie release..ellam producers kaiyil..So point no.2 rejected
Point no.1 is just an assumption..it maybe wrong

SPB and son SPC breeze through the gorgeous Ayyayo that recycles Raja’s classic folk rhythm with a neat 2.0 touch. The composer reserves the best track for himself – Yaathe yaathe; a lively, joyous outburst of love! Velmurugan’s Otha sollaala is too familiar to other currently-in-vogue folk songs, but the ominous pathos in En vennilave makes for a lovely listen; like Navin Iyer’s cheerful instrumental, A Love Blossoms! Yogi B’s rap in Porkkalam is an intriguing listen, even as he furiously munches Tamil words; the English version seems more appropriate. The Vetrimaran-GVP combo works far better than Pollathavan, in Aadukalam!

சென்னையில் உள்ள பர்மா பஜாருக்கு வந்து வெளிநாட்டு படங்களின் 'டிவிடி' க்களை முன்னணி திரை உலகினர் வாங்குகிறார்கள்.
அங்குள்ளவர்கள் இந்த டிவிடிக்களை, இந்த இயக்குனர்கள் வாங்கி சென்றார் என கூறுவதாக சென்னை பல்கலைக்கழகத்தின் ஊடக துறை கருத்தரங்கில் காரசாரமாக விவாதித்துள்ளது.
இந்நிலையில் ஆடுகளம் படத்தின் டைரக்டர் வெற்றிமாறன் வெளிநாட்டு படங்களை பார்த்து சுடுவது பற்றி பேசியுள்ளார்.
தனுஸ் நடிப்பில் பொல்லாதவன் படம் வெளி வந்த போது 'இது' பை சைக்கிள் தீவ்ஸ் படம் மாதிரி இருக்கிறதே ...! என்றார்கள்.
பொல்லாதவனை 'பைசைக்கிள் தீவ்ஸ்' படத்தோடு ஒப்பிடுவது எனக்கு வேடிக்கையாக பட்டது. ஆனால் 'லொலிட்டா' என்ற படத்தின் பாதிப்பில் பொல்லாதாவனை பண்ணினேன்.
அதனால் அந்த படத்தை காப்பி அடிச்சிட்டேன் என்று கூறமுடியாது. டைரக்டரின் சப் கான்சியஸ் மைண்டில் தங்கிய இன்ஸ்பிரேசனில் படம் பண்ணுகிறார்...மற்றபடி எந்த படத்தை பார்த்தும் படம் பண்ணுவதில்லை. நானும் அப்படிதான்.. என்றும் அவர் கூறியுள்ளார்.

சூடு பிடிக்கும் ஆடுகளம்
திங்கள், 20 டிசம்பர் 2010( 20:08 IST )
பொங்கலுக்கு சிறுத்தை, இளைஞன் படங்கள் வெளியாவதால் சன் பிக்சர்ஸின் ஆடுகளத்தின் *ரிலீஸ் தள்ளி வைக்கப்படும் என்று கூறப்பட்டது.
ச*ரியான திரையரங்குகள் கிடைப்பதில் சிக்கல் ஏற்படக்கூடும் என்று இதற்கு காரணம் சொல்லப்பட்டது. ஆனால் ஆடுகளம் மட்டுமல்ல, வேறு எந்தப் படமும் *ரிலீஸ் தேதியை தள்ளிவைக்க*த் தயாராகயில்லை.
விஜய்யின் காவலன், கார்த்தியின் சிறுத்தை ஆகியவை பொங்கலுக்கு வருவதை அதன் தயா*ரிப்பாளர்கள் உறுதி செய்திருக்கிறார்கள். ஆடுகளம் பொங்கலுக்கு வருவதாக திரையரங்குகளின் பெயர்கள் இல்லாமலே விளம்பரம் தந்திருக்கிறது சன் பிக்சர்ஸ்.
போட்டி கடுமையாக இருப்பதால் புத்திசாலித்தனமாக இளைஞன் பின்வாங்கும் என்கிறார்கள் இப்போது.
எப்படியோ... இது போட்டிப் பொங்கலாக இருக்கப் போவது மட்டும் உறுதி

Aadukalam censored, garners praise!
Dhanush's eagerly awaited Vetrimaran directed Aadukalam was censored on Wednesday (December 15) and passed with a U certificate.
This has come as a big boost for the makers and Sun Pictures who are marketing the film.
At the time of its making, Aadukalam was touted to be another Madurai based violent action film but putting all speculations to rest, the film did not get even a single cut except for a couple of dialogue mute and passed with a U certificate.
"The members who saw the film were awed by the innovative script and fresh presentation", says a source close to the film.
Sun Pictures have announced the film for a big Pongal release and a 360 degree publicity campaign is being kick started from this week.
Says director Vetrimaran: "Aadukalam is not an off beat film but an entertainer with all commercial elements for the entire family. The song Yathe Yathe tuned and sung by GV Prakash Kumar is already topping all the music charts".

I felt like that. I had a great respect for him earlier but not now.
Once in a interview, he said (or did - don't remember exactly) he will fall on the feets of rohini for the role she did in Nandalala (this is 1.5 yrs back in Kalaingar TV). Also he talks too much these days...

According to my knowledge the trailer should be releasing on SUN TV 2moro or Sunday seeing as:
1.It is New Years Day
2.SUN TV always put on trailers 2 weeks before it releases(JAN 14)
3.They are showing audio launch on sunday so they will show trailers along with thaT.

Underwhelming trailer. Wannabe mAdhiri irukku. If Chennai is Victorymaaran's strength, he should have stuck to it. Dhanushs's accent - enga ooru accentnga - ungaLukku sariyA varalai thambi. And in a couple of dialogues in the trailers, the dialogues themselves are non-madurai speak. Granted, a man might speak a mix of tongues but when it seems like you are deliberately setting it in Madurai with emphasis on it is a madurai character as opposed to Polladhavan's chennai boy(from promos and interviews), then better is expected.
Music - rejetted! GVP, sorrybA, I still think you are not bad, promise irukku but it's just cachophony - the songs and BGM in trailers.

Dhanushs's accent - enga ooru accentnga - ungaLukku sariyA varalai thambi. And in a couple of dialogues in the trailers, the dialogues themselves are non-madurai speak. Granted, a man might speak a mix of tongues but when it seems like you are deliberately setting it in Madurai with emphasis on it is a madurai character as opposed to Polladhavan's chennai boy(from promos and interviews), then better is expected.
appidi oNNiyum thappA theriyalai
koNdruvEn ,kiss adichikiralAma - were the only two discernible lines I recall and they were not 'off'.
In fact from the trailer (evoking the railway colony ethos etc.) seemed quite on-the-money. And from the performances I already feel this is going to better than the other the other Madurai films.
And this is from someone who has not seen Polladhavan yet.

I think it is better to make it accent-neutral than falling into theory of ' Ele means thirupachi, vaantheinga means madurai ' .. It irritates me ...
Yes - DHanush was very comfortable in chennai accent, and accent - neutral thiruda thirudi !

‘எனக்கு முள்ளும் மலரும்… தனுஷுக்கு ஆடுகளம்’ – ரஜினி பாராட்டு
பொதுவாக எந்தப் படத்தையும் இரண்டாவது முறை பார்ப்பவரில்லை சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் ரஜினிகாந்த். ஆனால் சமீபத்தில் அப்படி ஒரு படத்தை இரண்டாவது முறை பார்த்துள்ளார். அது தனுஷ் நடித்து நாளை வெளிவரவிருக்கும் ஆடுகளம்.
இரு மாதங்களுக்கு முன் ஸ்பெஷல் எஃபெக்ட்ஸ் சேர்க்கப்படாத நிலையில் இந்தப் படத்தைப் பார்த்தார் ரஜினி. அப்போதே இந்தப் படம் குறித்து பாராட்டுக்களைத் தெரிவித்த ரஜினி, இப்போது வெளியீட்டுக்குத் தயாராக உள்ள நிலையில் இந்தப் படத்தை மீண்டும் பார்த்துள்ளார்.
‘இந்தப் படம் பக்கா கமர்ஷியல், அதே நேரம் சர்வதேசத் தரத்தில் அமைந்துள்ளது’, என்று பாராட்டிய ரஜினி, தனுஷின் நடிப்பு தன்னை அசத்திவிட்டதாகக் குறிப்பிட்டார்.
‘மகேந்திரனின் முள்ளும் மலரும் எப்படி எனக்கு புதிய திருப்புமுனையைத் தந்ததோ, அதேபோல தனுஷுக்கு ஆடுகளம் அமையும்’ என்றும் அவர் கூறினார்.
அருமையான ஸ்க்ரிப்ட், தெளிவான டைரக்ஷன் என இயக்குநர் வெற்றி மாறனுக்கும் பாராட்டு தெரிவித்தார் ரஜினி.
ஃபோர் பிரேம்ஸ் திரையரங்கில் திரையிடப்பட்ட இந்தப்படத்தை ரஜினியுடன் அவரது குடும்ப உறுப்பினர்கள், தனுஷ் மற்றும் அவரது பெற்றோர், இயக்குநர் செல்வராகவன் ஆகியோரும் பார்த்து ரசித்தனர்.
தனுஷ், டாப்ஸீ நடித்துள்ள இந்தப் படத்தில் முக்கிய வேடத்தில் தோன்றுகிறார் ஈழத்துக் கவிஞர் ஜெயபாலன்.
This is too big compliment from RAJINI.....

When I thought the movie was going to end, Intermission came!

When I was looking forward to what happens next, movie ends.
Mentioned in the beginning is that no live chickens were used in the making.
Ocher Studios was credited again.
Both was unnecessary since all the chicken-fights looked unreal.

And they didnt fight like chicken either - more like Danush
And the climax fight was so unreal - these are about the only sore points in the film.

Wish that Aadukkalam had wider release than Siruthai.
Danush has no punch dialogues, except - naanga ellaam tsunamilE swimming adippomla
While cockerel fight is central point of the story-telling, the movie gets bigger than that. And I won't say anything else beyond it, so as not to spoil the thrill of watching it yourself.

Yes, he acts within his limits.

Vetrimaran is a person I will look out for. Watched Polladhavan on TV and did like it.
But Aadukkalam is just another level.
I love these kind of out of the ordinary movies.
BTW, kalanidhi's name was more prominent that danush's

none of the actors names appear in the beginning credits.
even vetrimaran's name comes after the end.

But while Polladhavan revolves around a motorbike, this one is much bigger than just a cockerel fight.

Typical Dhanush Romance-A?
Thought it's a Vetrimaran film with Dhanush thambi playing the character.
Dhanush's romance in films with Selva have always gone bust. But with Vetri, there's no all too conclusive closure to Polladhavan lous track, but it ends favorably. And its very existence didn't feel organic at all, could have been easily without. I hope Vetri rectifies this.

Typical Danush romance:
low class boy falling in love with high class girl. suddenly falls in love and follows around. proves his love

girl eventually falls for him. leaves home for him

What did you discover about Vetrimaran while filming the film?
Vetrimaran's real calibre will come across with Aadukalam. He is definitely going to be Kollywood’s pride and one of the top directors. He has extracted top-class performances from each and every artist who has worked in the film like Jayabalan, Murugadoss, Narayanan, Kishore and hundreds of people from Madurai who all are raw and real.
So true

Wish that Aadukkalam had wider release than Siruthai.
Danush has no punch dialogues, except - naanga ellaam tsunamilE swimming adippomla
While cockerel fight is central point of the story-telling, the movie gets bigger than that. And I won't say anything else beyond it, so as not to spoil the thrill of watching it yourself.

Btw Nerd, any hopes for Karthi in Siruthai? He's a gone a bit overt. Konjam sari pathukanum.
From the trailer, it feels like the original dual role by Ravi Teja would be comfortably better.

http://www.sify.com/movies/tamil/rev...tid=5&cid=2429
Every once in a while comes a film touch both heart and mind; films that make you surrender completely to the power of the experience. Aadukalam lives up to the expectation that the film carried and the credit goes to Vetrimaran whose research and hard work shows on screen.

From behindwoods.com..
Rajini bowled over in two innings
Aadukalam is making headlines for all the right reasons. Rajini watched the uncut version of the movie, without CG work, and was seen very impressed with the output before a couple of months. Now with the film ready for release it was time for Rajini, his daughter, Dhanush's family, including Selvaraghavan, to watch the theatre copy at the Four Frames preview theatre in Chennai.
A very satisfied Rajini, after the movie, told sources that Aadukalam is a 'pucca' commercial movie but with international quality. He also said that the movie would give Dhanush the break to take him to the next level.
"Aadukalam is for Dhanush as was Mullum Malarum to me at that time", said Rajini commenting on the work of Dhanush and Vetrimaran.

Why ya?

otha sollale.. song , dance ellam romba super... very natural and different.. loved it...
dhanush is no pretty face, but he can really get into the character and charm us... vera yaarum indha role la yosichu pakka mudiyala... done really well....
inspire agama, copy adikkama, vetrimaran ivlo yosichu padam pannirukkarna.. avarai romba parattanum... really great ( kadaisila antha murderous fight irukkacha eppadi U certificate vangineenga... i was so shocked at the violent killing )

Watched it... liked it... Dhanush excellent performance

Sourav oru uruppinar attai koduppa.. flawless performance
Vetrimaran,Very good direction, great attempt.. he excelled in most of the scenes.
Gvp did fine job,but sounds like he modified and reused the Polladhavan Kishore theme here.
The problem with me is length of the movie,first half is terrific..Yaathe yaathe and otha soll was amazing..Enjoyed the visual of these songs... amazing screen presence Dhanush

but the characterisation in second half is (except Dhanush) weak IMO , it was not convincing. the way supporting cats portrayed in first half and the way it goes in second half is not convincing at all. could have been better than this... tamil-la sonna konjam scenes manasila ottave illa. May be i have to watch it again once the good print comes out, second half-la satham poda aarambchittanuga

Telugu actors go ga ga over Aadukalam!
The young rising stars in Telugu film industry Siddharth and Rana Daggubati have gone ga ga over Dhanush's performance in Vetrimaran directed Aadukalam.
Siddharth was the first to tweet-: "Just saw Vetrimaran's Aadukalam. Proud to be a Dhanush fan, what an actor! Dhanush in your words 'I'm love you, come to my home' (KP Karuppu's dialogue in the film) "
About Vetrimaran, Siddharth said : "Aadukalam is one of the finest ensemble acting efforts in an Indian film ever. Vetrimaran continues to dazzle after Polladhavan. Superb!"
Rana Daggubati tweeted: "Loved Aaadukalam , one of the best films, I've seen with even better performances by Dhanush and Taapsee. A big bow to Vetrimaran".

Dhanush n Vetrimaran, take a bow guys! the year has just started, and one of the movies of the year is already here. hope what Surya mentioned in the audio launch is true; let Vetrimaran make more movies with Dhanush if these are the kind of roles he's going to write for him.
Inspirations aside, deserves a second watch and more!

Dhanush is the best actor in the scene right now, ஏற்கனவே சொன்னதுதான்.
The groundwork is commendable. Accent is near perfect. Locations could've been improved. Clearly shows the Nungambakkam church and Kodambakkam park near MDU central

Why are people complaining about the graphics? I loved it. Very well done. The guy who plays sidekick to Dhanush (satham varudhu paaru.. ipdi podakkoodathu guy from PP) was brilliant.

Dialogues were killer!

Now, to the parts I didn't like. The Bul bul thara meesai doesn't give the vibe of such a powerful antagonist. Nasser would've been perfect. Kishore's wig

Dhanush looked overly thin..

no idea why! Whatever happened to the baddie cop who comes in the first half.

Vanishes completely post-interval. Screenplay was **cked up too bad. Second half was painfully slow. Music is totally out of context in several places. Except the pathos score that dominates the latter half (similar to Polladhavan) all OST scores were some hard rock stuff. GVP
Overall, a rewarding experience alright, but not a great movie. Somewhere in between good and great.

Unaimous praise hub'le mattum thaan. I was talking about the views here in UK. Many said "Good story but too slow" plus i think late night shows didnt help many people.
I am yet to watch it...can only see it wednesday but siruthai got rave reviews here but i didnt like it. Hope its the opposite for Aadukalam... i always welcome a refreshing story!

I dont understand. In Polladhavan climax stunt, Dhanush flexed his muscles and looked fit. Was that done with the help of computer graphics? In Uththamaputhiran, again he looked rail-thin. Now in the paper ads of Aadukalam, Dhanush lifts dumb bells and shows his biceps but in TV Ads he looks thin again.

The fastest rising music director GV Prakash according to music industry trackers is Pongal 2011's big winner.
His Aadukalam music is topping the charts and the song Yathe Yathe is becoming an anthem!
Take a look at Radio Mirchi (98.3 FM)'s Top 20, week ending January 15 (Pongal Day).
Yathe Yathe song tops the list at number one position, followed by Otha Sollalla at number three.
All the other three releases of Pongal: Kaavalan, Siruthai and Illaignan have music by the veteran Vidyasagar.
In Radio Mirchi's latest countdown Kaavalan song Step Step is at number 10 while Siruthai's Naan Romba Romba is at number 20.
Ilaignan does not feature in the countdown.
It clearly means GV Prakash's music of Aadukalam is a chartbuster. Yathe Yathe is 2011's first chartbuster.
Once Sun TV starts showing the beautifully picturised full length song, its popularity will soar .

so aadukalam is clean winner in the pongal race.

டயலாக்கை நீக்கு...

Last Updated 12:30 Hrs [IST], January 18, 2011
இனிமேல் படைப்பாளிகள் எவரும் சுதந்திரமாக கக்கா கூட போக முடியாது போலிருக்கிறது. எதை செய்தாலும் இது எங்களை குறித்துதான் சொல்லப்பட்டிருக்கிறது என்று சட்டையை பிடிக்க ஒரு பெரும் கும்பலே தயாராக இருக்கிறது. இதற்கு அண்மைக்கால உதாரணங்கள் நிறைய... என்றாலும், லேட்டஸ்ட்டாக ஆடுகளம் படத்திற்கு வந்திருக்கும் எதிர்ப்பு சற்று வித்தியாசமானது.
சுனாமியின் கொடூரத்தையும், அது ஏற்படுத்திய வடுக்களையும் அவ்வளவு எளிதில் யாரும் மறந்துவிட முடியாது. இனியரு முறை அப்படி ஒரு சோகம் நம் மண்ணை முத்தமிடக் கூடாது என்ற பிரார்த்தனை எல்லா காலத்திலும் இருக்கிறது நம்மிடம். அதற்காக ஒரு காட்சியில் சுனாமி பற்றி பஞ்ச் டயலாக் பேசுவது கூட தப்பா என்று புலம்ப வைத்திருக்கிறது ஒரு சம்பவம்.
சமீபத்தில் மதுரையில் கூடிய மீனவ பிரதிநிதிகளின் கூட்டுக்குழு, ஆடுகளம் படத்தில் வரும் ஒரு வசனத்தை நீக்க சொல்லி குரல் கொடுத்திருக்கிறது. இல்லையென்றால்... என்ற எச்சரிக்கையும் கூடவே வருகிறது அவர்களிடமிருந்து. அப்படி என்னதான் அந்த படத்தில் டயலாக் பேசிவிட்டார் தனுஷ்?
நாங்க சுனாமியிலேயே ஸ்விம்மிங் போடக் கூடியவங்க... இதுதான் அவர் பேசிய விவகாரத்திற்குரிய டயலாக்! கடந்த மாதம் வெளிவந்த உத்தம புத்திரன் படத்தில் கவுண்டர்களை இழிவு படுத்தினார் என்று தனுஷ§க்கு எதிராக குரல் எழுந்தது. அப்புறம் அந்த வசனத்தை அவர் நீக்கிய பின்புதான் கோவை பகுதிகளில் படமே திரையிட முடிந்தது.
இப்போது இந்த பிரச்சனை....

Nerd, i agree. Dhanush did not look bulky in Polladhavan, but in Uththamaputhiran, avar rombave olliya irundhaaru, as if the movie was shot before Polladhavan. And again in Aadukalam posters, his physique seems better.
Just look at these, especially the 1st and 5th pics:

I don't think so. It was real for the most part but when they show his back muscles and his biceps (within the first 3 seconds of the shirt tear) its graphics and after that (most shots are not close-ups) its real I think.

Adukalam is the clean winner in the pongal race.
Chennai box office (Pongal special) - January 14 to 17
Wednesday, 19 January , 2011, 16:15
It was total confusion at the CBO this Pongal. For the first time, the market was divided because no theatre could gauge which film was the winner.
On January 14, Aadukalam and Siruthai released, with the former getting a better opening.
On January 15 - Pongal day - Ilaignan and Kaavalan released. In the suburbs, Kaavalan opened with a matinee show, but loyal Vijay fans thronged the theatre to give it a good opening.
The picture changed dramatically by January 17 (Kannum Pongal). As per early indication, Dhanush's Aadukalam was the clear number one at the CBO, thanks to its good word-of-mouth, strong multiplex preference and fantastic publicity on the Sun Network.
At number two was Karthi's Siruthai, torn apart by critics but loved by the mass audiences. The film - after a very dull opening day - picked up considerably in multiplexes on Sunday and Monday.
Karthi and his team promoted the film aggressively by appearing on all television channels.
Vijay's Kaavalan, on the other hand, released without any fanfare. It is the first-ever ‘big' film to release without any publicity!
Added to that, Vijay's favourite screens like Albert, Thyagaraja, Bharath, Kasi and Kamala were screening other Pongal releases!
In spite of the odds stacked against the film, it managed to open well in limited screens and is at number three.
In fourth position is Ilaignan, which released in good theatres - including prime shows in multiplexes - and has taken an ok opening.
In fifth position is Ravi Teja's Mirapakay, which is the best among Sankranthi Telugu releases.

Good movie..a normal first half and very well written second half..how the story unfolds gradually with brilliant performance and dialogues by pettaikarar in the second half is delighful..liked it more...
This movie also reminds me of Kizhakku cheemaiyile in its intricate screenplay and nativity..
The ending is plausible with everything that happens before it..
for me this was not as impactful as pollathavan...even the fights..but good nevertheless....

to the team...

Kumudam Review
வெறும் சேவல் சண்டை தான்.அதுவே மனிதனை மனிதன் வெட்டிக் கொல்லும் படுகளமாக எப்படி மாறுகிறது என்பதுதான் ‘ஆடுகளம்’ படத்தின் ஹைலைட்.
சேவல் சண்டையை இதற்குமுன் யாரும் இவ்வளவு விரிவாக காட்டியதில்லை. சேவல் சண்டை நடக்கும் ‘ஆடுகளம்’ புது அனுபவம். அங்கு சண்டைக்கு சேவலை அவர்கள் தயார்படுத்தும் விதம் பிரமிப்பு. அடிபட்ட சேவலுக்குத் தையல் போடுகிறார்கள் சாப்பிட எதுஎதுவோ தருகிறார்கள். விசிறி, ஒத்தடம் தருகிறார்கள் அப்பப்பா...!
கதை?
சண்டைக்குப் போகும் சேவலை வளர்க்கும் பேட்டைக்காரர்,அவரது சிஷ்யகோடிகள் என்று ஒரு இளைஞர் பட்டாளம்.இவர்களை ஒருமுறையாவது சேவல் சண்டையில் ஜெயித்தே ஆக வேண்டும் என்று துடிக்கும் இன்ஸ்பெக்டர் ரத்னவேலு,இவர்களுக்குள் நடக்கும் வெட்டுக் குத்து ஒரு பகுதி.
பேட்டைக்காரரையே சுற்றிச் சுற்றி வரும் கருப்பு ‘தனுஷ்’.அவரால், சண்டைக்கு லாயக்கு இல்லை என்று அறுத்துப் போடச் சொன்ன சேவலை,அவர் பேச்சை மீறி வளர்த்து சண்டைக்கு விட்டு ஜெயிக்க... அதுவே பேட்டைக்காரருக்கு ஈகோவாகி தன் சிஷ்யன் தனுஷையே பழிவாங்கும் ஆடுகளமாவது இன்னொரு பகுதி. இதற்கு இடையில் ஒரு மென்மையான காதலை ஊடுருவ வைத்திருப்பது கவிதைக்களம்.
‘கருப்பு’ என்ற பெயரில் வரும் தனுஷ் மதுரை மண்ணின் மைந்தனாகவே வார்க்கப்பட்டிருக்கிறார்.தன் குரு பேட்டைக்காரர் மேல் அவர் வைத்திருக்கும் பாசம்,அவரைத் திட்டினால் அம்மாவையே அடிக்கக் கையோங்கும் அளவுக்கு பாசம்,அவரை மீறி ரத்னவேலுவுடன் சேவல் சண்டையில் மோதும் இடங்கள்,தப்ஸியைப் பார்த்து காதலுக்காக ஏங்கும் தருணங்கள், ‘பேட்டைக்காரர்’ தனக்கு துரோகம் செய்துவிட்டதை அறிந்து அவரிடமே சென்று ‘ஏண்ணே இப்படியெல்லாஞ் செஞ்ச?’ என்று கெஞ்சுவது... என உடல்மொழி பேச்சுமொழி எல்லாவற்றிலும் மதுரை இளைஞனாக மிளிர்கிறார் தனுஷ்.
கவிஞர் வ.ஐ.ச. ஜெயபாலன் சண்டைக் கோழிகளுடனேயே வாழ்க்கை நடத்தும் பேட்டைக்காரராக, வந்து அசத்துகிறார். அவரது உருவமும் மீசையும் முழியும் ஒரு ‘குரு’ ரேஞ்சுக்குக் கொண்டு செல்கிறது. இயல்பான நடிப்பால் உயர்கிறார்.தன் சொல்லைக் கேட்காமல் சேவலை சண்டைக்கு விட்டு எதிரியை ஜெயித்த ஒரே காரணத்திற்காக தன்னையே நம்பியிருக்கும் சிஷ்யன் கருப்பை பழிவாங்கும் குரூரம், தன் இளம் மனைவியை சிஷ்யனோடு இணைத்துப் பேசும் வக்கிரம், இன்னொரு சிஷ்யனைத் தூண்டிவிட்டு தனுஷை அழிக்க எத்தனிக்கும் பழி உணர்ச்சி...என்று எல்லாவற்றிலும் வித்தை காட்டுகிறார்.
ஹீரோயின் தப்ஸி ஆங்கிலோ இண்டியனாக வந்து,பார்த்தவுடன் காதலிக்க வைக்கிறார். ‘வெள்ளாவியில் வைத்து வெளுத்த நிறம்’. அழகு தேவதையாக வந்து மனசைக் கொள்ளை கொள்கிறார்.‘இதுதான் என் பூமி’ என்கிறபோது அவரது மண்பற்று வெளிப்படுகிறது.
இன்ஸ்பெக்டர் ரத்னவேலு, கருப்புவின் கூட்டாளிகள், தனுஷின் அம்மா, என்று எல்லாருமே மதுரை மண்ணின் கோபத்தையும்,வீரத்தையும் கொட்டி நடித்திருக்கிறார்கள்.
படத்திற்கு கை கொடுத்திருப்பது வசனம். மதுரை வட்டார மொழியை அப்படியே கொண்டு வந்து நம்மை மதுரை மண்ணோடு ஒன்ற வைக்கிறது.
ஜி.வி. பிரகாஷின் இசையில் பாடல்கள் தாளம் போட வைக்கின்றன.
மதுரை மண்ணின் வீதிகளையும்,இரவு நேர மதுரை நகரத்தையும் தத்ரூபமாக காட்சிப்படுத்துகிறார் ஒளிப்பதிவாளர்.
கதையின் உயிர் நாடியே சேவல் சண்டைதான்.அதை கொஞ்சம் யதார்த்த-மாக்கியிருக்கலாம். கிராபிக்ஸ் வேலை தனித்துத் தெரிகிறது. காலில் கத்தியில்லாமல் சேவல் சண்டை போடுவதும் கிராபிக்ஸில் சேவல்கள் பாய்ந்து பாய்ந்து தாக்குவதும் செயற்கை; உயிரோட்டம் குறைவு.
மற்றபடி யதார்த்தமான கதை, திரைக்கதை மூலம் புதிய ஆடுகளத்தைத் தந்திருக்கிறார் வெற்றிமாறன்.சிஷ்யன் ஜெயித்த பின் குருவின் சுயத்தைக் காட்டும் போதும்,கிளைமாக்ஸில் ஆயுதத்தைத் தூக்கி எறிந்து விட்டு காதலியோடு லாரியில் தப்பிப் போவதும் படு யதார்த்தம்.மதுரை மண்ணில் ஒருமுறை வாழ்ந்த உணர்வு.
ஆடுகளம்: வெற்றிக்களம்!

I don't even have a twitter account. I was just curious to know the comments on dhanush's page after the film released. Looks like he is getting good reviews.
P.S:
Dhanush is following Tendulkar in Twitter.

Aadukalam -

Hats off to Vettrimaran for transporting us to the scene of his story. The fact that Pettaikaran, Karuppu and Dhurai are etched into our minds is enough to show the victory of the movie. Eagerly looking forward to his next movie
Dhanush -

his expressions and body language in the otha sollaale song..the performance in the climax.. 'love panrennu solli aemathina dhaane, adhukku paainu' appadinnu solra andha style.. seval kitta pesura vidham... adukitte pogalaaam. Undoubtedly his finest performance till date. With another selva movie in the cards, he is only going to better this
loved the fight choreo in the movie..very very raw and natural
<spoilers>
Somehow I got reminded of the main plot of Perumthachan movie while watching the movie.. also could not make out what all the credits (for inspiration) which appear at the end relate to..
just for fun - like our Indian Epic, felt that the underlying message was aavadhum pennaale manushan azhivadhum pennaale - if Irene had not asked back that 2000 rupees (though it was used for the rooster itself) Karuppu perhaps would not have gotten into the fight. Again the relationship between Dhurai and Karuppu gets strained, thanks to Irene's request of rejecting the Bar and choosing the Canteen... all coz of Irene

It is very rare to see in Tamil cinema characters with so many shades of grey set in a story as riveting as ‘Aadukalam’.
The rustic environs of Madurai’s underbelly provide the ideal setting for maverick director Vetrimaaran's second movie - a tale of friendship, love and betrayal, all centred around the village bloodsport of rooster fights.
The detailing of every characters in the story is intricate. The narrative moves like a good novel where the first few chapters are all about etching and detailing the players, and the plot and the action unfold much later.
For those who allow the characters to grow on them through the long-winding first half, ‘Aadukalam’ offers a unique experience.
Vetrimaaran splits the movie right down the middle like two acts of a play; the first act is all about rooster fights and the human egos involved; and the second half is about the circumstances that pit the two lead actors - Pettaikaran (Jayapalan) and Karrupu (Dhanush) - against each other, clueless about why they are fighting, just like two fighter roosters in the ring (‘Aadukalam’ in Tamil).
The story centres around Pettaikaran, a powerful patriarch and a rooster breeder, who has never lost a fight in the ring. His has all the trappings of power and pride and is forever surrounded by cronies, including his two trusted deputies - Karrupu and Dorai (Kishore). Pettaikaran has a long-standing feud with local inspector Rathnasamy (Nareyn), who is hell-bent on beating Pettaikaran at least once in a rooster fight.
Nothing in the movie is over-the-top. Yet the story is almost brutal in showing the ways a human mind would deviate if its ego were unhinged.
In parallel to the rooster fights, we also see the innocent love story of Karuppu with Anglo-Indian girl Irene (Taapse Pannu not only looks the part but also makes an impressive debut), a resident of the Railway Colony. The love story contrasts drastically with the rooster fight sequences and makes for a light and breezy first half.
Stardom sits lightly on Dhanush’s shoulders, and he has essayed the role with uninhibited energy. The manner in which he breaks into dance on the streets when Irene points a finger and tells him that she is in love, speaks volumes of an actor who is willing to live his role. It is easily his best performance to date.
And it is not just Dhanush. Vetrimaaran has extracted top notch performances from nearly every cast member.
The real standout performance of the movie though comes from V.I.S.Jayapalan, renowned Eelam poet and debutant actor. He towers over every one else with his intensity. It reminded one of Tatsuya Nadakai from Akira Kurosawa’s King Lear adaptation ‘Ran’, where an aging warlord faces the consequence of living his last days seeing his empire crumble before his eyes.
The rooster fights - all of them created digitally - seem as real as they can get.
G.V.Prakash, who has shown some flashes of brilliance in his young career, brings his A-game to the movie. The songs are not just good, they also blend with the narrative. Velraj’s cinematography and T.Kishore’s editing round off a well-crafted movie.
Vetrimaaran’s honesty in listing in the end credits the movies that he has referenced for making ‘Aadukalam’ deserves praise. Especially at a time when movie fans, on online social networks, are quick to point out the influences any movie has. The debate on just how original any movie can be is pretty open but ‘Aadukalam’ is probably as honest and true to sensibilities as it can get.

no im saying the rooster concept of fighting is a little new to tamil cinema i never said that tamil audiences won't like it just saying its something very new like ayarathil oruvan so for some it will be difficult to get used to as they don't see this kind of films often. But that doesn't mean they won't like it.

I feel Aadukalam is about ego of a man

Dhanush should act with filmmakers like Selva, Vetri Maran and such like regularly. But I don't think he could stay away from making crass films to boosts his marketing power. So he'll be doing that time to time. Otherwise he'll end up doing a Madhavan.

Dhanush – Vetrimaaran team’s Aadukalam is quite an impressive account of lives that revolve around rooster fights and emotions that coat the sheer existence of people who are threatened with the success of their peers – betrayal, fear and ego. Dhanush and Jayabalan have come up with powerhouse performances scripted by Vetri’s mighty pen.
Trade Talk:
Trade pundits suggest that an analysis of the outcome of the movie’s collections provide a rosy picture, thanks to overwhelmingly positive reviews and word of mouth.
Public Talk:
G V Prakash proves his mettle with ‘Ayyayyo’ and ‘Yathe’ songs and Tapsee complements both the songs very well with her sparkle.
No. Weeks Completed: 2
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 273

வெற்றிமாறனின் களம் கொஞ்சம் வித்தியாசமானது. சேவல் சண்டையை மனிதர்களின் சண்டையுடனும், அவர்களின் நுணுக்கமான ஈ.கோ. விளையாட்டையும் ‘ஆடுகளத் தில்’ புகுத்தி வெற்றி மாறாத வெற்றிமாறனாக ஜெயித்திருக்கிறார். ஒரு மாலைப் பொழுதில் அவரை நேரில் சந்தித்தோம்.
உங்களைப் பற்றி... பால்ய கால வாழ்க்கை, குடும்பம், வளர்ந்த சூழல், படிப்பு?
‘‘அப்பா டாக்டர் சித்ரவேல்... வெட்னரி சயிண்டிஸ்ட். அம்மா மேகலா சித்ரவேல், எழுத்தாளர். அக்கா இளவழகி சென்னையில டாக்டரா இருக்கார். என்னோட பால்ய காலம் முழுக்க ராணிப்பேட்டையிலதான் கழிஞ்சுது. அம்மாவுக்கு என்னை இன்ஜினீயரா பார்க்கணும்னு ஆசை. ஆனா, என்னோட ஆசையெல்லாம் கிரிக்கெட்தான். பின்னால அதுவும் சலிச்சுப்போய் ‘வக்கீல் ஆகப்போறேன்..’ன்னு வீட்டுல சொன்னேன். இங்கிலீஷ் பேசக் கத்துக்கோன்னு அப்பா அட்வைஸ் பண்ணார். கிட்டத்தட்ட வீ ட்டுக்கு அடங்காத பையனா.... ‘இதான் நம்மோட இலட்சியம்’னு எதையும் தேர்வு செய்யாம பொறுக்கியா இருந்தேன்னு சொல்லலாம்.’’
சினிமா ஆசை....?
‘‘லயோலாவுல ஆங்கில இலக்கியம் படிச்சுட்டிருந்த சமயம். எங்க காலேஜுக்கு 1997-ல் பாலுமகேந்திரா விசிட்டிங் புரொபஸராக வந்தபோதுதான் என்னோட வாழ்க்கையில முக்கிய திருப்பம். அவரோட நேருக்கு நேரான உரையாடல் யுக்தி எனக்கு ரொம்பவே பிடிச்சுருந்தது. ‘நல்லா தமிழ் தெரிஞ்சவங்க வேணும்...’ன்னு பாலு சார் சொன்னதா கேள்விப்பட்டு அவர் வீட்டுக் கதவைத் தட்டினேன். தமிழ் பேசத் தெரிஞ்சா போதாது... இலக்கியமும் பரவலான வாசிப்பும் இருக்கறவன்தான் வேணும்னு என்னை கிளம்பச் சொன்னார்.
நான் அசரவேயில்லை. ‘என்ன ஸார் பண்ணனும்’ன்னு கேட்டப்போ, மூணு புத்தகங்கள் கொடுத்து படிச்சுட்டு வாடான்னு சொன்னார். படிச்சு முடிச்சு அவர் முன்னாடி போய் நின்னேன். ‘மரப்பசு’ நாவலைக் கொடுத்து இதுக்கு ‘சினாப்சிஸ்’ எழுதிட்டு வான்னு அனுப்பி வைச்சார். அப்புறமாத்தான் அவருக்கு நான் சீடனானேன்.’’
ஆரம்பகால சிரமங்கள்... அவமானம்...?
‘‘அப்படியெல்லாம் எந்தக் கஷ்டமும் எனக்கு ஏற்படலைங்க. அதுக்கு காரணம் எங்க அம்மா. சினிமாவுல நான் வொர்க் பண்ணிட்டிருக்கும்போது மாதம் 6 ஆயிரம் ரூபா கைச் செலவுக்கு பணம் கொடுப்பாங்க. இது தவிர வாரா வாரம் ஆயிரம் ரூபாய் பாக்கெட் மணியும் உண்டு. அதுக்கு அப்புறமா எனக்கு எல்லாமே ஆர்த்திதான். என்னோட காதலியான பிறகு அவங்க வாங்குற பதினைந்தாயிரம் சம்பளத்திலிருந்து மாசத்திற்கு பத்தாயிரம் பணம் வாங்கிக் கொண்டேன்’’ என மனைவி ஆர்த்தியைப் பார்த்து சிரிக்கிறார் வெற்றி.
‘‘சினிமாவைப் பொறுத்தவரையில் காத்திருத்தல்தான் மிகப்பெரிய சிரமம். ‘என்ன பண்றான்... எப்போது முடியும்....’ன்னு சுத்தி இருக்கறவங்க கேள்வி கேட்கும்போது பதிலே சொல்ல முடியாது. ஒரு சினிமாக்காரனுக்கு வரும் அதிகபட்ச சங்கடம் இதுதான்.’’
சென்னை ஆளாக இருந்துகொண்டு ஆடுகளத்தில் சேவல் சண்டையைப் படமாக்கணும்னு எப்படித் தோணுச்சு...?
‘‘‘அமரோஷ் பெரோஷ்’னு ஒரு ஹாலிவுட் படம் என்னை கவர்ந்துச்சு. அந்தப் படத்துல நாய்ச் சண்டையைப் பிரதானப்படுத்தி எடுத்திருந்தார்கள். நமக்கான விஷயம்... நம் மண்ணுக்கான விஷயம் என்னன்னு யோசிச்சப்போதான் சேவல் சண்டையை கையில் எடுத்தேன். இடைவேளைக்கு கொஞ்சம் முன்னதாக நடக்கும் அந்த சேவல் சண்டை டோரன்மெண்டுக்காகவே 139 பக்கம் ஸ்கிரிப்ட் எழுதினோம்.’’
உங்களுக்குத் துளியும் சம்பந்தமில்லாத மதுரை ஏரியா... மண்சார்ந்த அந்த கிராமத்து மக்களின் களம்...எப்படி இதெல்லாம்...?
‘‘வன்மம், அன்பு ரெண்டையும் அதிகப்படியா காட்டக்கூடிய கேரக்டஸ் எங்கே இருக்காங்கன்னு தேடிப்பார்த்தா அது மதுரைதான். ஸோ..2008 செப்டம்பர் டூ 2010 மே மாசம் வரை மதுரையிலேயே டென்ட் அடிச்சு அங்கேயே ஆபீஸ் போட்டேன். அங்குள்ள மனிதர்களின் பேச்சு, உடலசைவுன்னு எல்லாத்தையும் உன்னிப்பா கவனிச்சோம்.’’
தனுஷ் சிட்டி பையனாச்சே எப்படி வேலை வாங்கினீர்கள்....?
‘‘இதான் ஐடியா... இதான் வேணும்ன்னு சொல்லிட்டா நாம நினைச்சதை ப்ரேமுக்குள் அப்படியே கொண்டுவந்து கலக்குவது தனுஷ் ஸ்டைல். கிட்டத்தட்ட ஜூனியர் ஆர்டிஸ்ட் மாதிரிதான் வேலை பார்த்தார். தனுஷின் அப்பா தேனிக்காரர் என்பதால் இயல்பாவே தனுஷிடம் அந்த மதுரை பாஷை செட் ஆயிருச்சு.’’
உங்க குருநாதர் பாலுமகேந்திரா என்ன சொன்னார்....?
‘‘‘என்னோட பாதிப்பு இல்லாம பண்ணிருக்கேடா... உன் படத்துக்கு மூணு நேஷனல் அவார்டு கிடைக்கும்டா..’ன்னு நெகிழ்ந்துபோனார். எந்த படத்தையும் ஒரு தடவைக்கு மேல் பார்க்காத ரஜினி, ஆடுகளத்தை ரெண்டு தடவை பார்த்துட்டு ‘அடுத்து நீ என்ன செய்யறேன்னு பார்க்கிறேன்’னு சேலஞ்சாக சொன்னது, மிகப் பெரிய ஆசிர்வாதமா நினைக்குறேன்.’’ வெற்றிமாறன் முகத்தில் அடக்கமான புன்னகை.

i have the same question... rendu moonu murai pathen... purila...
looks like he was beaten or punched in the stomach... when they show the wooden cardboard room from outside, a police guy goes in and then u could see the cardboards shaking as if someone was pushed onto it...
and after this pettai says some dialog which is not clear as well.

pEttai's words are something to the effect of "kaLaththula seyya mudiyAthatha thaniya un edaththukku vanthappO senjutta illa? ippO solrENda..." and then proceeds to leave the sevachchandai savaal. There is a code that opponents in the matches should not physically manhandle each other. Karuppu hints as much when Ratnam's men accost him after he slits the throat of the hen in Irene's house (yERkaNavE ungaLOda saNdai vittukurathillai-nu aNNan theermaanamA irukkAinga. ippO naama adichikittOm-nA eppamE saNdai vittukAtha mAthiri aayidum..). I suspect the reason why VetrimAran doesn't show the violence explicitly has something to do with this.

i agree there could be a code of conduct to not mishandle, but i din find any relation to what dhanush says and code of conduct during the seval fights....
he says that cos, even he is interested in the seval fight but his boss has avoided it, and he expects it to happen sometime in the future to prove ratnasamy that he can never win them how many ever times they challenge for a fight... with the tension betw the two camps already, he says that a further fight would erase the minimal chances too...
what i understood was like, ratnasamy cannot even show a finger against paettai in the arena as they are always the losers and paettai's team would not leave them alive if anybody tries to insult his boss... thats the reason he says, kaekka yaarum illai... thaniya dhan vandhirukkaen... enna aanalum indha tournament nadandhaganum ayoob'ukkaga... so, station kulla unna edhukkavum mudiyaadhu... veliya solli unna edhikkavum mudiyadhu... kai yaendhuravan-kudukkuravan relationship.

dont think it was due to any rules, Ratnam was trying to persaude Pettaikaran's men for the kozhi fight, I thought Dhanush meant 'indha madhiri time la enna adicha kozhi sandai ye vittukAtha madhiri aayidum'

கிராமத்து லும்பன்களான இவர்களிடம் சேவற் சண்டைகளில் கிடைக்கும் பணம், புகழ்தான் முக்கியமென்றால் அதற்காக இவர்கள் எது வேண்டுமானாலும் செய்வார்கள். அதில் நீதி, நியாயம் என்று ஒரு கதை செய்வது பொருத்தமாக இல்லையே?
"சேவற் சண்டை போட்டி என்பது கஞ்சி குடிக்கும் உயிர்ப்பிரச்சினை அல்லை, அது மானப்பிரச்சினை” என்று தனுஷ் வசனம் பேசுகிறார். இரசிகர்களும் அதை தமது பிரச்சினையாக ஏற்கிறார்கள். பாரம்பரிய விவசாயத்தை பறித்தெடுத்துவிட்டு, விவசாயத்தை அடிமைகளின் தொழிலாக மாற்றிவரும் மான்சாண்டோ காலத்தில் எது மானப்பிரச்சினை? விளைபொருளுக்கு விலை இல்லாமல் கமிஷன் மண்டி வணிகர்களிடமும், அம்பானியிடமும் அடிபணிந்து நிற்கையில் போகாத மானம் சேவலுக்காக போகிறது என்றால்?

Today i decided to watch a movie after my midterm exam with my friends so they decided on aadukalam but i told them i already saw it and they asked me to watch it once again for their sake. So after seeing it for second time, i must say it was a big difference compared to the first time... this time i actually enjoyed the film and could appreciate it. I think i hated it the first time because of the poor camera quality and since this time it was on the big screen it made a big difference. I said earlier that the film was boring and not interesting but i guess it was because i didn't get to see it in proper quality. I guess the lesson i learnt is to avoid crappy prints and just always watch original so that way you get the best perspective of the film.
Verdict: Watch it for dhanush's excellent performance (Rating 3.5/5)

Very nice review. This seems like an honest viewpoint of a true cinema lover who also understands our culture + mindset. But saying that, making a movie with such a mindset would result in one which is slow, artistic, intellectual etc but will surely not cater to our normal commercial audience. I disliked this movie, especially the 2nd half because of such a reason.
Vettrimaran, who calls the 2nd half as an artistic approach towards a commercial film and "different" from the 1st half should have concentrated more on the ethnic realities, so that it would have made us relate to the characters more instead of sticking with the already cliched blood, violence, betrayal etc. This movie lacked brains in most departments. Looking at it as a commercial film, I was extremely impressed by the 1st half. And I shouldn't forget to mention dhanush's escalation (shots before "otha sollala" song).

I have no idea how I have evoked such animosity. It was just an opinion which I feel I am entitled to, being an ardent tamil cinema fan, exactly like you all who think aadukalam is a great movie. I read in the same topic someone comparing AK to Kizhakku Cheemaiyile, according to me that is like demeaning KC but I don't feel wronged because it is his/her opinion. I did really feel like watching a wanna-be movie in the 2nd half, I felt the director trying too hard. IMHO.
And btw I haven't worked my brain at all in anything. I am not anybody, yet.

Finally ended up watching pongal releases ! This one is my pick. I would say KC is an overrated movie from BR compared to this one. The only thing that was saving grace for KC was AR Sangs.
AK - Excellect Casting.
KC - Overrated Casting (Over acting written all over it).
AK - Subject was fresh , director's execution was brilliant.
KC - Age old subject with village tooist !

@Dilbert: I am totally with you on KC not even being half as good as his others bests but according to me it is a class ahead of AK. All I am saying is BR knew his way around villages and KC cannot be made in a city. The village is not just a premise in KC but acts as an entity which provides its own characteristic qualities to the film unlike Vettrimaran's AK who seems to have just placed a tailor made script in a rural area just for the sake of it.

Welcome Kubrick to HUB !
Onions differs, one man's overrated movie is another man's CLASS Movie (my quest is still on to understand what is Class vs Mass)
Anyways I thought it was a great attempt by Vetri, he has official joined my list of Fav deractors !

LM, this film demands a second viewing because there is so much to observe. Anyway here are my thoughts.
The first 5-10 mins did nothing to me and I could not comprehend the accent too. In fact I had to turn the subtitles (which I turned off soon) on to understand a few dialogues. And things were moving at a breakneck speed and I found it a little hard to follow. I would have started the film in a calm/laidback manner so that it does not give you a hint of whats waiting. Though the songs, their placement and the video for them are excellent, the BGM was very very poor.
Having got the negatives out of the way, the most heartwarming aspect of this films is its not surface like most Madurai/south films of the last decade. Sasikumar ellaam pichai vaanganum. If the first half is excellent, the second half is outstanding. The writing is one of the bestest ever. All the characters make a mark, even the ones in Irene's family. The ego angle was exploited very well by the director. Even the protagnist, Dhanush's ego was captured beautifully in the first half. And the way the film ended was extraordinary. I was completely awed. The acting of the ensemble cast is the best I have seen in years. Thanks should also go to Radharavi and Samu. This has to be Samu's best contribution to TFI. Dialogues were good too very much depicting the subtle nakkal so typical of Maduraiites. Anyway some favorite scenes, from the top of my head:
1. The Seval fight scenes had me move to the edge of my seat. CGI was OK, but there was only one thing the sevals did which later Dhanush does with Kishore. The whole tournament scenes were beautifully written and more importantly, extremely well executed.
2. First real rift between Kishore and Dhanush in regards to the bar contract.
3. The very next scene in which pettaikkaran *steals* the money - thats some screenwriting, the real *racy* without the annoying fast forwards and jump cuts employed by Hari et all.
4. Cache-inspired slit of the throat, though I expected pettaikkarar will kill himself, the slit was unexpected.
5. Nikolas' first scene and the way he was used throughout the film.
6. Pettaikkarar trying to make Irene believe his side of the story - the affair Karuppu has with his wife and Irene, not believing it.
7. The way the inspector (Rathnasamy) character was handled. He had absolutely nothing to do in the second half and bringing him back would have killed the other threads and I was glad Vetri chose to ignore him.
7. The last scene of course, whoa!
Vetrimaaran in his BW interview said, Pollathavan is a mediocre film at best, I am agree now, having watched his best yet.

Polladhavan is a really good film, no way it's mediocre, IMO. In fact, I enjoyed Polladhavan more though Aadukalam is a better film.

Breaking the cliche. Dhanus forcing himself to leave the town with a bad name, works in multiple levels.
1. He could have easily spoiled pEttaikkarar's name but he chose not to, which makes the character extremely loveable.
2. Vetri could have used another plot element to expose Pettai's evil intentions to glorify Dhanus, but he did not which is very commendable.
3. And doing anything other than fleeing the city would have made the character and the film less affecting.
4. Dhanus, a maranamass star in his own right doing *that*! Vetri showed his 6 packs mass in Pollathavan
Louss was not the best part about the film but the last few scenes pertaining to louss made that thread loveable, like the one I had highlighted. I forgot to highlight the 'friend'' character. Lovely! Have seen him in another film, not able to recall.
Still have not seen YS but Aadukalam is the film to beat this year. One of the films of this decade for sure.

Either the money or the knife or whichever. Or may be Pettai slitting his throat after Kishore arrives. All this would erase Dhanush's bad name, which would have diluted the impact the film creates. I am glad VM did away with that.

Naan apdi sollalai boss-u. In fact I don't even care if there was any authenticity w.r.to the cockerel fights but he did nail the accent and the subtle humor to perfection. Ameer did that too in Paruthiveeran, but the script of PV is not as *deep* as Aadukalam. Subramaniapuram should not even be in discussion.

I liked Subramaniapuram relatively a very well-written/executed film. Sliding by the order of releases the ratings may variegate but I vehemently disagree with your outright dismissal. Aadukalam may have an upper hand on two different groundbreaking screenplays, fine-packaging but draws lot of inspiration, thriving setups, trade-tips from earlier series and Supu is one for sure.

Subramaniapuram - Aadukalam - Paruthiveeran :
1. All three movies have strong character depiction and the story revolves around these characters. We see the narration in the point of view of each character and not as a stroy. The impact is more in Aadukalam, as you really feel that you are beside these characters and watching everything thats happening but you cannot do anything as you are helplessly caught in their ego clash.
2. All three movies lay sequences cleanly before you.
Subramaniapuram took violence, Paruthiveeran took emotions and Aadukalam took darker side of human action. Subramaniapuram and Paruthiveeran includes many commeciale scenes + dialogues + fights. Aadukalam is limited.
Other than these, I do not see the reason to compare any of the 3. Clean movies.

Actually the film is still holding on in multiplexes. In fact it has the most shows among the 4 pongal releases in Sathyam.
And it got the best opening among other releases IIRC. The film is certainly not a flop for sure. Average-above average.

Even if it seems a bit too careless in its initial color tones, and uninspiring angles in different POV, it's also quite promising at places. From the cock flapping its wings just like dhanush in YathE song

, and the image of Durai meeting Rathnasamy on latter's half-terrace with the cage in the middle. At one point, Durai seems half-caged himself (alongside Rathnasamy's cockerel). I'll have more attention on big screen. So might check it out tomrw.
Wanted to see tonight. But no night show available in PVR/Satyam/Escape (going to 'True Grit' in SERENE instead, as rest of the family go to "Payanam" 10.20 SATYAM

Would have gone to Yudham Sei night show in Escape if not for their insistence on sticking to Sathyam cineplex at least

)

I thought Aadukalam was awesome. A far cry from your run-of-the-mill Tamil movie. Illegal cockfighting, the strength of solidarity, the damages that jealousy and backbiting cause and, above all, an unaffected, no sweat love story in between. Songs were excellent. They went with the flow of the movie. Loved the bizarre

chemistry, between K.P Karuppu and "I-am-love-you"

Irene.
Do watch, if you love art - that is skillful and creative.
Despite not being much of a 'Kuthu' song fan, that 'Othasollala' song is just, pleasantly intoxicating. And, of cause, the tauntingly sentimental Ayayo and Yathe Yathe song. Standing ovations to the entire crew - Director Vetrimaran, Dhanush, Pettaikaran Jayabalan, Durai Kishore and the angelic Taapsee.
Aadukalam - Bring down the house !!!!!!

Truck climax worked for me.
I have no qualms about prologue (with grey b/w color tones no less, standard issue filmmaking cliche) unless it isn't functional than just to pique one's interest. To illustrate with an example, the portions of terror & abduction in Raavanan would make sense as rest of the narrative would slice up the reason why. Or, Ayutha Ezhuthu for that matter. On the other hand, Vetrimaran begins with Karuppu possibly involved in homicide (looking all rugged & menacing) and Irene slitting her wrists (although I did like the glimpse of their family right across her bed in this opening scene.) Yeah, two unlikeleast of human beings to be conjoined together in an intimate relationship, but what's its function? Apart from the fact that Polladhavan begins with a similar prologue (although the single long shot to meet the boy-next-door in a house of massacre seemed a bit more alluring)..
The whole juxtaposition of varied pOv is super-jarring. You don't start with an objective gaze with voice-over (which has an informative quality at least, unlike the initial v-o of Dhanush in Polladhavan) to set the milieu & then abandon it half-way. The uneven pattern with which each pOv is cut doesn't quite inspire either. Some of the s-rs also seems little patched up. I can't make my mind why some of the revealing portions of Pettaikaran are omitted (the 'twist' isn't actually a 'pay-off' as it's annulled by the way Jayabalan portrays the character, bringing out that dimension in events, esp. involving his young wife, which offer subtle hints).
Dhanush fits into the character well. His character, in particular, steers off the usual rural maschismo & associated posturing. Which is also integral to thematic underpinnings here. Which is why the love thread particularly worked for me. (although I'd perfectly understand if anyone finds the whole anglo-indian aspect of it insufferable. I sort of get why Anbar couldn't last first 30 minutes

)
While all the songs worked for me, the BGM sucked so hard in ways only GVP could. Opening prologue'layE Zimmer to Santaollola.

Using premature romantic cues when Vetri wants to be less judgmental about Irene's feelings. I'd go a step further than what Sureshmechit said in his blog, who suggested Vetri could have shown GVP all the films credited at the end (have to add that some of these references are bizarre!) Mine would be to show Haneke's 'Cache' (one of the quoted films) to all filmmakers who plan to work with GVP or composers who lack sophistication in background compositions.

Nerd,
Were would you place Dhanush's performance vis-a-vis Karthi's debut performance? I'm not bringing up Vimal in Kalavaani for obvious reasons (one-noted at end of the day!)
I was very impressed. The limited physicality conjures a bit of decisive mean streak about him, something that adds an ambivalent dimension to everything he does (perhaps why Vetri begins both his films with blood-soaked image), sublimely so in near-silent close-up sequences that makes him TFI's own Lee Byung-hun. Someone should write a non-compromising shady character for him.. (Selva attempted that in couple of films, but it was all jarringly too verbalized/compromised towards the end!)

Kalavaani was true one-noted but I d put that 'delightfully one-noted' much like his pasanga performance and thoongaa nagaram (going by the trailers/clippings). Hope he gets roles outside his comfort zone in the future.
Dhanush (or rather his character) was particularly impressive in the first half when he decides not to obey Pettaikkaran's order to kill the seval. It was sort of inconsistent with the portrayal and actually that worked. He was subtle in that scene and in many others. And I could not find a single jarring scene w.r.to his performance. Very very impressive. The same can be said of Karthi too but his role was very *loud* when compared with Dhanush's. So its actually difficult to compare. Dhanush's *loud* performance in pudhupettai had a few off-key moments. And I think all the credits should go to the director of the respective films. Selva is known for extracting inconsistent (most times bad) performances from his actors and Ameer is usually very good (Surya and Karthi, not much of a fan for Jeeva's acting) and the two film old Vetri has been very consistent. Anyway, I think Dhanush's will be the performance of this year. I don't see anybody beating that.

I'm confident that both Aaranya Kaandam, Avan Ivan could rival ensemble of Aadukalam. In both Polladhavan & Aadukalam, Vetri had expertly exercised his lessons from Balu (of extracting good acting from entire ensemble, even out of non-actors).

Re.Pettaikaran/Aadukalam
The film is about gradual unraveling of inadequacies & faulty delusions of "periya manushan"(it's just that!), especially those who indulge in customs that are essentially machismo manifestation (& it's not just double entendre in dialogues, the Cockerel fights features a close-up of Karuppu's hand to fully underline the phallic symbolism of Cockerel neck!). In a way, Vetri is making a wry commentary of the sectarian conflicts. This is also acknowledged by Vetri *beeping* Rathnasaamy's cast (and I'm sure it's not censor requisition as the beep is applied to Samu's objective v-o!)
The master-understudy dialectic with this backdrop is essential. How the god-like features (of Pettaikaran, that Karuppu worships) is as obscurely delusive as the one that's put to witness the caprine sacrifices & petty customs. Pettaikaran's breed-control methods should give away the excision of dictatorial control. His is a very constricted mind. But he is invariably Karuppu's forefather (more so for Karuppu than Durai, who is economically adequate.)
But Pettaikaran isn't fully concerned about 'henchmen' as much as being "யாரு தர்மக்காரன்னு ஊருக்கு தெரியும்ல" (as m_Karthik brings up). He wants to live & die as THE 'Pettai'karan. In fact, we're allowed periodic reminders to sufficiently identify with Pettaikaran's position. We don't endorse any of it, but we acknowledge the once-vainglorious always fade out. And how one's earlier instincts don't actually turn out to be dependable. The moment when he dissuades him from Irene(who offers the more feminine, progressive departure from cockerel business) citing a more conservative "supportive" wife (there's a lovely dissenting gesture of Pettai's "conservative" young wife, framed in the middle with Karuppu on the left).
After Karuppu's surge, Pettai's reminded of his own past. He's aware of his own progression over the earlier master, who atleast had a mill business to resort to (in Pettai's own words, where his economical dependance on Cockerel business is never more underlined). The Television clippings of Karuppu's victory, & his encounter with the villagehead would accentuate this even further. And everytime Pettai confides in his wife, she takes up Karuppu's cause. Pettai's senile fears & virile complexes works his mind. Karuppu presenting bangles & then sending over Irene's brother to buy out the cockerel (a moment where we see Pettaikaran vainly going against his own principle) with which Pettai planned to buy the bangles, all seem to warp & push the panic button. But it's his earlier life choices that triggers the anguish about Karuppu's uprise.
The ever-redeemable Cordelia-esque Karuppu's lovely triangle of interests; Mom's(lovely character) plee to rescind the pawned house, Irene wanting to take up a socially respectable "cleaner" job, and Durai leading the big-brother example with bar business; all take the back seat to his Pettaikaran idolatry, for Karuppu thinks it's He, his patriarch, who let him become the "man" he is. Like any identity-seeking soul, forefather's faults has no bearing on the overall didactic control with which they lead their lives. This variation in treatment is entirely justified for how the film unfolds. Quite unlike Sasikumar or such ilk, where you generally associate a whole lot of gruesome bloodshed in name of henchmen vengeance. It's not like that isn't possible. But is that really a challenge? OTOH, exploring the possibility of understudy's preservation of master's honor, and his own delusion of inheritance is far more nuanced & challenging in itself.
Btw, I totally liked Ayub's characterization (played by a "Thevar"). Although I don't like dialogues to govern my reaction, Pettaikaran-Ayub relationship seemed to recall some of the rural Hindu-Muslim friendships in & around my native. And goddamn Vetri, in his emphasis of biriyani served at his funeral contrasted to biriyani servings in Cockfight festivals.

k-g, Excellent (post in Yuddha sei thread)! I too was having the same doubt as raghavendran had about 'pettai', why such sudden cheap change in him. But your post made it clear for me. It is not sudden and there were instances clearly and gradually shown which leads him to behave in such a manner.
Thanks for your beautiful post
This is a wonderful movie and I really enjoyed it very well, right from the start till the end. Very happy that we are seeing high quality tamizh movies quite frequently recently. Certain scenes in this movie really made me clap and whistle.
-When Irene shows Karuppu as her lover

when others were asking about her lover.
-When Irene sees Karuppu wiping his hand and mouth after eating with his shirt and she wipes (first time) her hands with her skirt. Vetrimaran punches! lot like that.
-Thought Ratnasamy would revenge Pettai and Karuppu on this defeat, but that was quite a relief and beautiful deviation from usual tamil films.
-cockfight scenes and climax. Karuppu having known that the money is still with Pettai, and because of this only her mother died, he doesn't get angry over pettai and infact feels embarrased, I liked that scene a lot.
-Dhanush acting, infact everyone has done superbly. It seems for Dhanush this role is his second nature. It comes so naturally to him. His contempararies (IMHO) should learn from him. Dhanush has lot lot to offer :kalakkiteenga sir:
-G V Prakash, his best movie ever

. All songs are definitely going to become classic! BGM was ok, but still for his age, he is surely growing in stature.
-Normally, before I watch movie nowadays, I used to atleast hear, if there is blood violence/disturbing scenes (that's why I don't like movies like Paruthiveeran (climax), Subramaniapuram (climax), Kathal (eventhough it is an excellent movie, that kaattu kathal's by whole family in streets and removing her thaali etc, is not the kind of movies for me). This movie comes as a relief and Vetrimaran's has narrated in beautiful style.

-last, that தேன் madurai slang! And that lovely Thirparankundram locations! Wow!

Rathnasaamy is a refreshing change, yes.
The baldhead (& funerary echos of his house ) brings out a chuckle. Here again Vetri is making a very specific contrast to the tonsuring of the latest progeny [where you see the ear-piercing, left/right ear(?) I don't know but there's a strong chance it's a male child.]
The victors aren't exactly the righteous, and how they're dangerously culpable of self-destruction is underlined. Rathnasaamy's blood line will carry on the mantle & the cycle will repeat. While Pettaikaran, with no blood descendant, is frightened & doesn't actually believe in fosterage(his past, & lack of potency governs this). From eugenic 'breed' control, it's easy to imagine his dictatorial p-o-v (As against monarchic motivations of Rathnasaamy).

Thanks Mahen. Excellent insight again k-g! Just had another doubt about Karuppu's character portrayed by Vetrimaran.
He kicks his friend in the bar for having said ill about 'Pettai' his guru, but on the other hand, he himself didn't kill the cock (which lost in one of the matches), said by pettai. Also when he goes in search for the lost cock, instead of just getting it back, he kills another one just for revenge (he again disobeys pettai there). Lastly, when Durai tells him to stop with that first win in the tournament (as directed by pettai), he tells that 'avarukku than vayasarthu, loosuthanama pesararuna, neeyuma'. He even scolds her mother for Pettai.
I felt these incidents are not very tight for the respect Karuppu shows with his guru/father-like. What's your take on this?

Dhanush was awesome.. Whenever he was told something in the context of 'ThOthuravannu bayama', Dhanush could not take it.. he wants to prove that he always wanted to win...It happens at all times.. at all cock-fight times in the end of first half.. and once after losing money.. Last one was used well by Pettaikaran for his revenge.. In the end, he accepts and he takes the blame.... leaves with a bad name... he doesn't want to prove that..

Yes exactly. Many did not agree with the ending (Thing they expected something like Paruthi Veeran or any other tragic ending), but this ending suited me. I completely forgot what happened, and started to think how they are going to lead a peaceful life ... that was the impact on me, hats off to the narration. This ending is the only way to show real emotions and how ego could play spoil sport in your life. Plus, it also reveals the exact nature (the final scene in the truck) when one realises his ego and does not want to fight with it anymore, but deceides to move on.

Exactly.
That vayasAyiruchu is also said in passing. The handicapped guy from Suppi presents it differently. Now it is not even scheming twisting or anything like that. Just that, it is the same words but when not read with the superficiality with which Karuppu intended it, sounds bad. And hits pEttaikaaran where it hurts. Extremely well captured by Vetri

2. Railway colony - Thangapandi's' residence? He does not disobey - Pettai says 'sevala potta mEla pOtturunthaainganna, pottaiyai aruthu pOttru' (
Pettai's seval should mate only with pettai's hen for obvious reasons)
3. Excessive love
K-g will be able to throw more light.
Yeah, and it all seems to tie in with the film. Everything is. Even Pettai's own slitting comes off as an acknowledgment of Karuppu's succession.
Karuppu's unrequited devotion & delusion makes him a sympathetic character.

Exactly.
Just that, it is the same words but when not read with the superficiality with which Karuppu intended it, sounds bad.

And Dhanush, superb. So he is the first to get among 'I am a young' guns of TFI, not the popular choice Surya. IdhukkaagavE NA panna mishtakes ellaam mannchudalaam. All hail adutha kamalahaasan Dhanush.

"Ishqiya songs are my personal favourites": GV
2011-05-21 11:01:20
Last Updated: 2011-05-21 11:15:06
GV Prakash Kumar is one of the most hard working music composers in Kollywood. Added to that he is a guy who goes out of the way to support his friends.
Recently, when Aadukalam swept six awards at the National Film Awards, it was GV who personally rang up the entire team to announce the awards.
Remember the young music director himself did not get an award, as he lost out by a whisker to Vishal Bhardwaj.
Aadukalam was GV's best composition and his friends were expecting an award for its brilliant songs and background score.
But GV was cool about it as he lost out to Vishal Bharadwaj in thebest Music Director category.
When contacted GV told sify.com : " I'm so happy that Aadukalam bagged six awards. And my song Otta Sollalae won Dinesh the best choreographer award. But I have no regrets,losing out to Vishal as songs in Ishqiya are my personal favourites. His music in Ishqiya is great and Vishal truly deserves it"
At the moment GV is savouring the Aadukalam team bagging a record number of awards. Meanwhile he is all kicked up about the songs in Joker, his first Hindi film a big budget 3D film with Akshay Kumar and
Sonakshi Sinha in the lead directed by Sirish Kunder.

...vtv should have won :sigh:

கலைவாணியைத் தொடர்ந்து ஆடுகளத்தையும் பார்த்தாகிவிட்டது. சிறந்த உருவாக்கம். வெற்றிமாறன்
தனுஷ், ஜெயபாலன், மீனாள், தப்சி, கிஷோர், நரேன், கருப்பின் அம்மா மற்றும் நண்பராக வலம் வரும் கலைஞர்கள், சேவல் போட்டியை வருணனை செய்பவர் என எல்லோருக்கும் பாராட்டுக்கள். தேர்ந்த நடிப்பு எல்லோரிடமிருந்தும். வேல்ராஜின் ஒளிப்பதிவு அருமை

பயன்படுத்தி இருக்கும் வண்ணம் கதையோட்டத்திற்கு பெருமளவில் கை கொடுக்கிறது.
தமிழ்த் திரையுலகில் "கருப்பு" பாத்திரம்

வரப்போகும் தலைமுறைகளிலும் பெரிதாக பேசப்படும்.
இயக்குனர் படைப்பின் இறுதிக்காட்சிகளை நடந்தி சென்ற விதம்தான் இன்னும் சிறப்பாக அமைந்திருக்கலாம் எனத் தோன்றுகிறது. எல்லோரும் இந்தப் படத்தை பார்த்து விட்டார்களா எனத் தெரியவில்லை என்பதால் வெள்ளையில் எழுதியிருக்கிறேன்.
இரவோடு இரவாக கருப்பு தனது காதலியுடன் பயணம் செல்வதாக காட்டுவது கவிதை. இளமைக் காலத்தில் பெண்ணின் மீது தோன்றும் காதல் , வாழ்த்தால் இவளோடு வாழனும் என்ற வேட்கை போன்ற வாழ்க்கைப் போக்கிற்கு உகந்த முடிவாக கருப்பு தலைமறைவாகிறான். சாலப் பொருத்தம். ஆனால் அதை அவன் பேட்டைக்காரனை சந்திக்காமலையே முடிவெடுத்திருக்கலாம். உன்னை அப்பா மாதிரி இதுவரை நினைத்திருந்தேனே என்றெல்லாம் கருப்பின் பாசமிகு சொற்களால் தவறை உணர்ந்து தன் வாழ்க்கையை தானே முடித்துக்கொள்வதாக காட்டுவது செயற்கையாக தோன்றுகிறது . தீய உள்ளமாக மாறிப்போன துறை மற்றும் சகாக்கள் உயிரோடு உலவுவது போல, பேட்டைக்காரனையும் உலவ விட்டிருக்கலாம் . இப்படைப்பின் அச்சாணியே பேட்டைக்காரன்தான். பல இடங்களில் தீர்க்கமாக யோசித்து நல்ல முடிவுகளை எடுத்து தனது கூட்டத்தை வழி நடத்திய அந்த பழுத்த மரத்தையே வேரோடு சாய்த்து விடுகிறார் இயக்குனர். மனித மனம் விஷமாகிப் போவது, அதையொட்டிய மனமாற்றம் இயல்பே. பேட்டைக்காரனின் மனமாற்றம் இயல்பே. ஆனால் திடுதிப்பென்று அவருக்கு ஒரு முடிவை வழங்குவது வணிக சினிமாத்தனம். மேலும் படத்தையே பிளாஷ்பேக்கில் சொல்லும் பாணியில் உள்ள சுவாரஸ்யம் அழுத்தமாக இல்லை. எல்லா நிகழ்வுகளையும் வரிசையாகவே சொல்லியிருக்கலாம்.

venki,
i dont think paettai realized his sins and eventually ends his life...
i thought the ego of paettaikkaran which is not able to see karuppu in his eyes killed him, and neither it is a well thought concious decision to kill himself... it was a momentary reaction mostly invoked by ones ego and reflex than taken in the brain... maybe if he has taken a few more seconds to think he would hav fallen on karuppus feet instead of killing himself...
