Checked out the still this morning. Looks different
Was scanning the paper to find the MD.
No music, no bgm. Good approach!
Another movie called "Veppam" produced by GVM is ready for release.

Hoping that this isn't an empty thriller in mold of Eeram. Btw with regards to BGM and songs, am I being too judgmental to think that it's LSD's influence on GVM?!

Ah, okay. In any case, I hope GVM opts for this mode for a specific reason like Dibakar. Not to be skeptical about this film, I believe he's going for a certain 'effect'. But one yearns more than 'effect', a context...

GVM is not a screenplay intense director. He relies heavily on his directorial skills and strong characterizations, rather. So, it would be interesting to see how he is going to handle this one. Hope this attempt turns out good. I believe the shooting of this film started even before the shooting of VTV but was shelved for some reason. Way to go, GVM!

GVM's Vettaiyadu Vilayadu was and is my best film in my lifetime. Can call it a thriller film and his directional skills were at its best. So i'm looking forward to this film
Sameera would and shud do well because she had already done a crime role in '' Red Alert '' where she plays as a Naxalite. Goutham has to include a Bgm or theme music.

Terrific dubbing, a spot on sense of humour, the way he presented a complex character Jessy, subdued characterization of Simbu and the fourth wall breaches -
Karthick: enna paakka paaka dhaan pudhichucha?
Jessy: Illa, paatha odanEyE pudichiruchchu...
His brilliant sense of choreography throughout his career and his composure in public events. Add to them a poster of Reservoir dogs and Pulp Fiction...

Especially worrying is that the last 3 have gone missing in the short span of 3 months. ' Stay cautious, be aware of strangers and report any suspicious behaviour.

Gautham has his hands full
July 26th, 2010 DC Correspondent
Gautham Vasudev Menon is easily one of the busiest people in Kollywood. Even though the filmmaker is basking in the success of Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya, he is all set to release Nadu Nisi Naaigal (Midnight Dogs) which stars his favourite actress, Sameera Reddy. This movie is said to be a thriller with an offbeat theme. Gautham is also busy with another film titled Veppam, which is being produced under his home banner Photon Kathaas and R.S. Infotainment. Veppam is directed by Anjana, who earlier assisted Mani Ratnam and the movie is in its final stages.
Meanwhile, sources in the industry reveal that Suseendhran of Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu fame is teaming up with Gautham Menon for another movie. Suseendhran who is waiting for the release of his upcoming movie Naan Mahan Alla has signed a movie titled Azhagarsamiyin Kuthirai which stars all newcomers in the lead. This movie will be produced by Gautham Menon and Madhan and the filming for the same will begin next month. The ace filmmaker’s company has also acquired all the remake rights for Kalavaani in all Indian languages.
And if that isn’t enough to keep him busy, this director is also planning to begin work on the Hindi remake of Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya which has Trisha and Prateik Babbar in the lead.

Debonair director Gautham Vasudev Menon is a very busy man these days. If his next directorial venture Nadunisi Naigal is in the final stages of shooting, his production house Photon Kathaas is also wrapping up the final schedule for "Veppam". We know that Gautham likes to do things differently.
Now here's news for his fans. Gautham has decided to release the audio for Nadunisi Naigal and Veppam on the same day, on the same stage. Now if you think that takes some guts to do it, read ahead.
It is also rumored that Gautham is planning to release both the movies on the same day. Phew ! Now if this happens, it will be one hectic day of his life for the producer and director Gautham.

I got fed up of all the mush: Gautham
Manigandan K R, TNN, Jul 29, 2010, 12.00am IST
Director Gautham Menon gets talking about his forthcoming film Nadunisi Naaygal in an exclusive to TOI
On the outskirts of the city and on a spacious lawn that’s beside the beach, pace around five to six ferocious looking dogs, waiting for their turn to act. Even as their trainers keep a close watch on them, unit members of Gautham Menon’s next film, Nadunisi Naaygal, work at a hectic pace, double checking facts and ensuring that things are in order for shooting to start.
Once Gautham arrives, the pace picks up and one realises that the director has one more racy film to offer.
Begins the ace director, who’s in the mood to experiment, “Basically, I think I got fed up of all the mush that I was making. It’s not that I won’t go back to making mush. It’s just that I wanted to do a slightly bizarre film.”
But why suddenly this desire to make such a film on psychopaths ? “You must have seen a streak of that in Vettaiyadu Vilayadu too. I could have shown Kamal sir battling gangsters or petty thieves but I toed the serial killer line there a little bit. When I wrote that script, we did a lot of research and it was then that we came across this incident that happened in the US.
I checked with a couple of doctors and they said that ‘yes, there are people like that around.’ There was time before VTV Hindi happened and there were a bunch of youngsters who showed promise. So, we decided to do this film.”
The movie, the budget of which isn’t big, has Sameera Reddy and Veera playing the lead roles. Sameera discloses that the title Nadunisi Naaygal has evoked a lot of interest among fans. Ask Gautham what made him choose this title and he says, “I have nothing against dogs and here, I’m not referring to dogs. We’re talking about desire and the dangers that lurk in the night. I’m using dogs as a metaphor to denote danger.”
Gautham has never been scared to take risks or experiment, the mark of a man who is passionate about his profession and confident about his skills. In this film too, he has taken a bold decision — not to have songs. Explains Gautham,“Yes, I don’t have songs in this film. In fact, this movie does not have a background score! It’s a little experimental that way.
Usually, these so-called thriller films tend to scare you with music. I don’t want to do that. I’m just telling a story and there are thrilling moments, bizarre and poignant moments in it — but all that should come across with the actors, dialogues and sound effects. However, I might reconsider my decision later. It’s a call I’m going to take when I see the entire film. I might still use some music if I feel that it’s boring. But right now, I don’t plan to use music in it.” So, when is he planning to release this film? “We’re almost ready. Just a little bit is left and once that’s done, we’ll release it.”

Amy Jackson puts Gautham Menon in a quandary
Amy Jackson, who was signed to reprise Trisha's role in the Hindi remake of Tamil film 'Vinnaithandi Varuvaya', is back to England without informing her director Gautham Menon.
According to a unit hand, the British model had come to India for a workshop organized by the director to help her know the character and the story better, considering she hasn't done any Hindi film before. But when the workshop did not start on time, the actress got angry and tried contacting the director.
What added fuel to this fire was Gautham Menon's unavailability. That's when the actress flew back to England without informing the director and his training unit. The Hindi remake of 'Vinnaithandi Varuvaya' stars Prateik Babbar and Amy Jackson in lead roles.
Hope the actress changes her mind and doesn't leave Gautham in a soup as he is planning to start shooting early next year.

Nadunisi Naigal Release Postponed
Gautham Menon kick-started his experimental attempt ‘Nadunisi Naigal’ much prior to the release of ‘Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya’. Initially he had plans of getting the film in Tamil and has now dubbed it in Telugu titled ‘Erra Gulabeelu’ that is produced in association with Ashok Vallabhaneni.
The film was supposed to get released on January 26 for the occasion of Republic Day and is now postponed due to some pending works in post production phase. Since this is the first time we have Gautham Menon’s film without music and songs, the filmmaker is more concerned about the special effects and DTX mixing, which still needs some improvisation.
According to the closer sources, the film may hit screens either by February 4 or second week.
‘Nadunisi Naigal’ features newcomer Veera, Karthik and Sameera Reddy in lead roles.

Straight from the gut - Gautam Menon
AMONG THE CIRCUMSTANCES that prompted Gautham Vasudev Menon to persevere with Nadunisi Naaigal is his longtime costume designer’s confession that she read the script and wanted to puke. “That interested me,” he says, with the smug satisfaction of a five-year-old who’s just deposited his pet toad next to his mother at suppertime. “That’s the kind of reaction I wanted.” His team pointed out that he’d alienate the female audiences who like the way he portrays love, the way he treats women on screen. “But I don’t believe in that. Nadunisi Naaigal is an I-don’t-care film. I had somebody who’s a rank newcomer. He works with me. I kept looking at his body language and said, ‘Let me write something bizarre.’ And while in the US, I met a shrink who narrated something from his files, without mentioning names. I was inspired by that. I also read a novel from which I was inspired to write this story.”
Afterwards, he realised there might have been an additional fount of inspiration, this time from his own backyard. “Maybe Sigappu Rojakkal was in my head while making the film. Bharathiraja, who made 16 Vayadhinile and Pudhiya Vaarpugal, switched to something that people might call vulgar or obscene but it was a psychological thriller. The unraveling of the human mind – that’s what I’ve tried to depict in Nadunisi Naaigal.” He knows that, under two hours, it’s a multiplex kind of film. He knows that it caters to a very young audience, whose years on the planet he pegs from 18 to 35 or 40. He knows people above 50 might be squeamish about some scenes. “But I wanted to make it, that’s all. While writing it, while making it, I just didn’t care whether it will reach out to a certain section of the audience.”
Last year’s Vinnathaandi Varuvaaya – that lacerating anti-romance – was another I-don’t-care film. “The characters kept talking throughout. There’s a violent side to this guy. When she keeps him at a distance, he reacts in a violent way – not in the sense of using his fists, but he kind of mocks her dad, he treads on that space. How many women would have liked to see somebody like that? But I just felt that’s inherent in most men. They tend to react like that if their love doesn’t come through. So even as I wrote it, I felt some women might say, ‘Oh my gosh, this is not right!’ But that didn’t worry me.” Put differently, he didn’t care.
But there is a point the armour cracks and he begins to feel vulnerable, the point he begins to care. “I make films without worrying what the audience will think. But once the first copy is ready and we wait for release, I’m in a very nervous state, because it’s our money now and there is a distributor involved and a theatre exhibitor involved. I go into a major shell thinking whether this will be accepted.” He is concerned about how much money the film will make because Nadunisi Naaigal is the first film made under the company he and his partners have listed on the London Stock Exchange. “There are investors. If it does well, people will invest in the company. So I need it to work.”
Like every smart speculator, he has taken precautions to insulate himself against financial shock. He’s already earned back the movie’s micro-budget from satellite rights and Telugu rights. (Nadunisi Naaigal will be released in a dubbed version, with a few scenes reshot to accommodate local flavour.) “We’re releasing it ourselves in all theatres, so I’m not taking any money from distributors. Nobody can come back to me and say we lost money on the film. So that way I’ve covered all angles.” But he still hopes it will do well. “I really want to see what kind of opening this film will take. I know the two films released yesterday didn’t take an opening at all. And somehow this industry is still stuck about what kind of opening every film takes.”
The bigger the name, the greater the pressure. Despite the incessant success of a string of Madurai-based films – made by no-name directors, with no-name stars, with budgets that would barely cover the song shoots of Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya – he feels people still care about big stars and big directors, and he counts himself as one of those people who still care. “I have a problem with stars and the way they behave. But give me Kamal Sir any day and I’ll do a film with him. I know it’s an ordeal to actually get to him, to convince him about a script. He’s going to try and give you something that he’s written. But having said that, once you get him on board, I know he can do something great, and there will be this big buzz everywhere. People will flock to theatres. And there’s money for the director.”
He outlines the lay of Tamil-cinema land. “Once the film is released, there is a distributor, there is a mediator, there is a theatre owner, there is a theatre commission, there is a tax – it’s all gone away, it’s piecemeal. And then what comes back to the producer is after three months of releasing the film. The money starts coming back immediately only if you do your own release, but that’s risky. Everybody wants to get their money back the day the film is announced. So give me a star any day. I’d love to work with him only because it’s financially viable for the cameraman, for the music director, and everybody else. With Nadunisi Naaigal, I’m not taking a big remuneration up front, but if I’d done this film with, say, Suriya I can take my remuneration up front.”He knows somebody like Vijay will never do his kind of film. “But Suriya will. He’ll reach out with a Singam, and then he will come back to a Vaaranam Aayiram at every point. We are doing something together next year.” The star who surprised him the most was Simbu, whose constituency, before Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya, was perceived as the rickshaw-puller and the cobbler and the honest labourer who sneered at the westernised affectations of the Gautham Vasudev Menon brand of cinema. “I was one week away from filming with a rank newcomer. My producer said, ‘Look at Simbu, Maybe we’ll get three crore more for the film, and the release price is also three crore more.’ The film needed spend in locations like New York and Malta. I didn’t like anything he’d done from before. When I met him, he said, ‘Whatever you want me to do, I’ll do.’ I thought this guy’s been here for some time. Maybe I could work around him.”

“But on Day 1, he surprised me with his one-take performance. Whatever I wanted, he gave me – in terms of dance, in terms of look, in terms of expression. I’ve spent less film stock on that project than with my other films. My wife said at first that she’d not watch the film, but she loved it and saw it many times.” Perhaps, through Nadunisi Naaigal, he’s hoping to accomplish a similar kind of transformation with his skeptical costumer designer. Making believers of non-believers comes with the territory of wanting to make different films in different genres. “I’ve always tried to make something different from what everybody is making. I don’t know if it’s accepted like that, but there is a need to try to stand out, try something different, something urban, something that hasn’t been seen recently on screen. I was very kicked about shooting on Air Force choppers for Vaaranam Aayiram. I haven’t seen these visuals in Tamil cinema before.” There, once again, is a glimpse of the boy with the toad, thrilled with his new toys.
Sitting across him, he’s the embodiment of composure. His voice, if mapped, would approximate to a straight line, and even when he utters the sole swear word of the afternoon, he dips his voice, as if lower volume could lessen vulgarity. And yet, he admits he’s aggressive. “I think I’m like the hero in my film. I think I’m bipolar.” He laughs. “I’m kidding. If I’m really friendly with somebody, if I know them for 10 or 15 years, my wife for example, or some friend, and if they have a problem with me, my first thought is, ‘I haven’t done anything wrong. Don’t they know me?’ I’m like that. I don’t feel the need to explain myself.” The only reason he subjects himself to interviews such as this one is to reach out. “I need people to know this film is coming out. I’d like to follow the Mani Ratnam path where he doesn’t talk before any film, but I saw him doing that with Raavan and, with all due respect to him, that worried me.”
These ten days leading to the release of Nadunisi Naaigal are lined up with interviews. But for Vijay TV, he’s doing something different. “I’m doing Koffee with Gautham, where I’m trying to talk to Bharathiraja and Kamal Sir, showing them the film and saying this is, in some way in my head, inspired by your film.” But a more interesting tryst with television lies ahead, a long-running thriller in five-episode chunks that will plant the seeds of a crime on Monday and dole out a resolution on Friday. “That’s the most exciting thing on the anvil now. We’re producing. I’m directing. And Rahman has said he’ll do the music. It’s going to have Parthiban in the lead. It’s not inspired or adapted from 24 or CSI, but it’s along those lines. It’s written entirely, 150 individual episodes. We’re waiting to see if Vijay TV will pick it up.”
If this film director does not mind devoting a portion of his life to television – time that could be spent crafting the next big-screen, I-don’t-care envelope-pusher designed to cause involuntary bodily reactions amongst longtime associates – it’s because he wants to change as well as create content. “We want to put ourselves out as content creators and providers. I even want to do stuff for mobile phones – apps and games.” He’s also producing films with other directors. “I’m making it easy for them to do films. Once I listen to the script and we thrash it out before production, not one question is asked. I have a very creative team handling every project.” Among the more exciting films, in his estimation, is Thanga Meengal, made by Ram, the dyspeptic director of Kattradhu Thamizh. “When I heard the subject, I had tears in my eyes, so I thought this will be the reaction in everybody in the audience. It’s a film made at 2 to 2.5 crore. It’s very different from anything we’ve seen on screen.”
It’s interesting that, here, he admits to extrapolating his gut-feeling to that of a mass audience, while with the reactions to his own scripts, he seems to occupy the opposite corner, running the risk of alienating these very audiences. “See, there will be people like me. My wife has not come to a theatre to watch a film after we got married. She watches some films I pick up on DVD. But she loves Quentin Tarantino films. She loves Hostel. Nadunisi Naaigal is not a scary film. It’ll make you squeamish at a couple of places. I liked Nalini’s [his costume designer] reaction but I knew there’d be people like me. The whole idea is getting people ready for what kind of film it is. My promos haven’t lied. My trailers haven’t lied.”
Whether Nadunisi Naaigal finds its audience or not, he says it’s not going to be easy to put together his next film. “It’s always been a struggle. I was not in the industry per se. I was not with the industry folk, so to speak. I worked with Rajiv Menon, who is outside the industry. He worked with AVM but he had a separate room for himself. I was conditioned to work with people like that, so when I made my first film, it was only Madhavan I was in contact with, and Madhavan was not from the hardcore industry here. With Harris Jeyaraj, it was his first film. We didn’t know anybody. The only established person on the team was Suresh Urs, the editor, who was like a mentor, a guide, at the time. So I didn’t think Minnale would be taken seriously and make things easy for me.”
His thoughts drift to Anjana, who’s making Veppam for his production company. “The film is not released yet, but she sent me an SMS a few days back asking if she’ll get a second film very easily. I was wondering how people think like that because I never thought like that.” Then again, he had bigger worries during his first film, whose hero insisted that he narrate the script to Mani Ratnam, upon whose approval the project would proceed. “Imagine my plight. I said there’s no way I’m going to do that because whether he likes the script or not, I can’t actually go in, sit there and narrate it to him.” This hesitation sprang from hero worship. “In my school days, Nayakan was the film that made me rewind and forward and see where the camera is and how they cut the scenes. I started learning to be a filmmaker by watching Nayakan.”
But Madhavan insisted. “I asked for some time. I went through some crazy moments in that one week. Then I did it. It was a pathetic narration and he hated it. He called Maddy and said there’s this other film called Ennavale that would take him to the masses, and that he didn’t know what I was talking about.” So Madhavan started work on Ennavale, “but somewhere along the line, he felt sorry for me or I don’t know what, and he said he’d do this too. That film came a week before Minnale and it tanked. But Minnale went on to do well, because of the songs or I don’t know what.” This self-effacement, he insists, is genuine. “I said this a few days earlier at Ethiraj College. I believe there are people who don’t like my films, and I’m not being humble or modest or anything like that. If someone comes and asks me why the houses in my film are painted white, to me it’s bizarre that somebody even thinks like that. I’ve done that with Mani Sir’s films. I know every line, every moment from his films. But I can’t take myself so seriously as yet.”
Despite the success of Minnale, the second film proved no easier. “It took me two years to put together Kaakha Kaakha. I wanted Suriya. I wanted a little more money for the film. But with Suriya, me and Harris, they said ‘this is how much we can give you’ – 2.50 crore; I wanted 4 crore – without even reading the script.” Vaaranam Aayiram was the biggest struggle ever. “Suriya and I broke our heads as to who would produce this film. Once I had the screenplay ready, I said we’ll do it. We’ll raise the money. You have a certain market. We’ll put together something. Suriya was not so sure. He didn’t want to work with Oscar Ravichandran, and Oscar himself was not so keen on pitching for the film initially. Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya was the first film we decided we would produce ourselves. So even now, I can’t think I have it made and the next film will fall into my lap. I put together a concept. I put together a script. Then I think about taking it to Kamal Sir. Last week, I met Rajini Sir. But nobody’s ever called me and said: Let’s make a film.

Director Gautham Menon is a master of variety. He ventures into the psychological thriller genre with Nadunisi Naaygal which releases tomorrow. Here are a few tit-bits about the team and the movie.
• Sameera Reddy confessed that she was not scared of knives or guns or four ferocious dogs chasing her or even when being dunked into a tub but what scared her to death was when the character of Veera tries to cut off her long locks. She admits that losing her lovely hair is her worst nightmare.
• Leaving no stones unturned to promote this film, the entire team of NN- Gautham, Sameera, Deva, Ashwin and Veera were being interviewed by Actor Babloo. Actor Babloo and the director go a long way back and Babloo had worked with Gautham Menon in Vaaranam Aayiram and the merry team was reminiscing about Vaaranam Aayiram shoot in which Sameera had played one of the female leads while Veera was an assistant director.
• Actor Babloo got cast in Vaaranam Aayiram after Gautham Menon’s mother had suggested him after seeing him on television. Babloo was joking that in order get casted in Gautham Menon’s film all you have to do is send a DVD of your work to his mother. This had everyone in splits and the promotion event was fun!

Perhaps, being a producer has helped him in this domain. The fact that there's no music or soundtrack is never felt during the course of the movie, thanks to the tight screenplay
Let's get the facts right. Nadunisi Naaygal is a dark movie and there's no point fretting about the movie's nature since the genre demands certain gloominess, that is well presented by Gautham.
Congrats Gautham for the brave attempt to drive home a socially relevant point in a dignified manner. You have done the tightrope walking quite efficiently!

Looks like the movie will cater only to a niche market. But I dont think Menon will be worried about it (that's what I could understand from his interviews). This sounds again like a "i dont care" type of a movie from him and that gives me more hope.

யுத்தம் செய் படம் memories of murder என்ற கொரியப் படத்தின் ரீமேக் என்று கூட சொல்ல முடியாது. memories of murderஐ டப்பிங் செய்த படம் யுத்தம் செய். ஆனால் கௌதம் வாசுதேவ் மேனனின் நடுநிசி நாய்களைப் பாருங்கள். யுத்தம் செய்யில் மிஷ்கின் எதைச் செய்ய கோட்டை விட்டாரோ அதை மிக அட்டகாசமாக செய்திருப்பார் கௌதம். அவருடைய பழைய படங்களை வைத்துச் சொல்கிறேன். "

ok looking at the response.i think that the movie is not the bad part but it is the content that our guys cant digest for example the incest part.even sigappu rojakkal was very explicit for its time.but it is a hit and accepted more now.but i think this movie will flop probably but will be accepted by audience in the future.anyway this is not new in gvm films.the villain flashback in vettaiydu vilaiyadu especialy the police station transvestite part also was bit too too much.gvm shud avoid this explicit way of showing and do it like myshkin who doesnt show but convey to us and makes us emotional

Anyhow we should appreciate GVM for such a daring effort and sweating a lot to take TFI to next level. Anyhow who cares about the content.

As usual Gautham doesn't disappoint. Something very different from his earlier movies. Yes, BGM would have enhanced the story telling and built up the suspense, but the sound effects does offer some help in that area.
Hero Veera is an apt choice. He brings out the psycho effect very well, altho he seems inspired too (Aalavandhan). Psyco guy with MPD as well.
Sameera and Samantha have almost nothing to do except to appear afraid. One can't help comparing with Sreedevi who brought out the character in a similar film.
So, basically it is Veera-Gautam-Manoj show.
Interesting and well-made movie. Definitely not for children and immature audience.

Not prior to SR, post SR some movies have been made.
Director Rajpreeth made a movie with Sarath babu as the hero - "Uchakkattam" - story of a delusional schizophrenic escaping from a mental asylum to
punish his wife who has "moved on " in her life. this was in 80s and i believe a remake of an english film
Nasser acted in the thamizh remake of "Stepfather (80s orginal English movie) as "Mr.Prasad". Though the movie was a remake, Nasser as the psycopath was AWESOME
Thakkaali Sreenivasan made a movie out of "Jack the ripper" in 90s starring Gowthami and Nizhalgal Ravi and it was a very good movie, I forgot the title...
There was also "Kalaignan" from G.B.Vijay and kamal which was essentially about a psycopath murdering young girls..
More famously, there was "Kann Simittum Neram" produced by Sarath Kumar, directed by Kavignar Kannadaasan's son and starring absolutely superb Karthik. This movie was successfully remade in Hindi as well as "Sailab" with Aditya pancholi and Madhuri Dixit.

Very well put (the bolded one, that is). Haven't watched the movie yet but I'm pretty sure that this is going to be my grouse (as well) after I see this movie. Why promote/brand a movie as a "thriller" if there is no thrill/suspense whatsoever?

Twisted attempt to avoid looking like Psycho
Hitchcock's Psycho had a great flow in the screenplay, which very few other films could emulate. In an attempt to make his screenplay not remind "Psycho" Gautham has tried to twist the story a bit, which is jarring.
The child who has been abused - whether the Tim Robbins' character in "Mystic river" which is a complete contrast - to what Gautham has portrayed in NN, ends up a Sociopath, whether for true or apparently to the society, which is a story that must be told. Gautham can be congratulated for that.
I liked the eerieness of the portrayal of "Meenakshi amma" (in the farm house); she walks almost like an apparition, and once i saw that, it was crystal clear, that Gautham is paying tribute to Psycho and Hitchcock.
This is definitely a better attempt at Psycho than Balu Mahendra's "Moodu pani". Perhaps , GVM should have made it more explicit that culturally-easily-shocked and weak-hearted shouldn't be to this film. But the manirathnam-ish dialogues is a itch in the wrong place (manirathnamum , GVM-um thaan padichavangalukku padam edukkaravanga - suhaa "mozhi!")
There are some scenes where you are slightly reminded of "identity" - but overall GVM as a director is better off with this film, although i dont rate him very highly. He mostly comes across as just another "Law-enforcing" police-state "anuthaabi" to me, albeit with a clever mask.
As an afterthought, i felt that when writing his "cooked-up-to-be-different-from-Psycho" screenplay, Gautham wanted to incorporate elements of Freudian "Oedipus complex" into the story, which he misunderstands or over-simplifies, and which is poorly done in the screenplay and leaves the narration hanging.
Even the inner part of the house, the stair-well, and the basement secret-room remind of Psycho's fruit-celler.

Spoilers Ahead
It was kind of obvious that this movie was going to end like Psycho. People who have watched Psycho and know how popular it is will surely call it a tribute, like geno above, unlike the one sitting next to me yesterday who almost shouted "Psycho la irunthu copy adichutaan da". But for such a movie and such an attempt the casting was terrible except for Sameera of-course. The way Selva raghavan and GVM make their actors talk like them irks me thinking how self-centered they are and how much concern they have for their actors. This could be accepted in the case of Quentin Tarantino because his writing itself is like that, being very self-conscious and stuff will make his actors talk like him but GVM isn't such a great dialog writer. I am bringing in QT here because of certain similarities like the famous trunk shot and foot fetish. These aren't tributes because they are too subtle for the general audience to get.
Technical superiority of this movie too had a negative impact on me. It was as if GVM was showing his expertise off and they looked very pre-meditated. Anyone who has the backing can note down shots from anywhere and use it in his movies. But the one, who uses shots wisely to visually move a movie, is only a good director. The ones I liked were the Close Up on Veera which suited his face so much and the way the camera looks down at Meenakshi Amma (after the accident) for psychological effects. The well-praised, played down , scene with Veera and Meenakshi amma in the bed was shot very monotonously. Though GVM manages it to make it less raunchy, he ends up missing on the impact.
The sound engineering and sound effects were done well but I shouldn't comment on it after watching the movie in one of TN's best theater. If there is anyone who has watched it in a town theater please do let know if it was good because that is where it counts. Acting as I said was pretty pathetic. Veera just couldn't carry the movie, such a script demanded an actor literally as good as Kamal Hasan or at least as good as Madhavan. But Veera is a complete let down, I can't believe that Veera had come from Kamal's school, it could even be because of GVM's over concern for playing down. Dialog of his, in his house, after he gets hand cuffed by the ACP was literally laughed at, which is the worst feedback he could ever get. The ACP too was very amateurish, nothing much to talk. Sameera in her scenes were too good, relatively. She has something, which she dint in Asal, in the movie which elevates her in every frame (etho oru classy look, maybe chinmayi's voice? IDK). The over-conscious Meenakshi amma was again a let down but passable, relatively again.
If there were actors who had something to add to the screenplay then easily this movie could have been saved but because of GVM's over-confidence and wannbe-ness (yes, I am already told that this is a very cliched word here) this one goes to the fishes. The dialogs are boring. Yes, we don't talk in a catchy way in our real life but for a movie the dialogs needn't be punchy but at least it should interest the audience. And I am really tired of GVM's style, in dialogs especially. I don't remember see him growing as a writer at all since Khaaka Khaaka. In an interview (Behindwoods, I guess) GVM said that this movie doesn't only tell that psychologically unbalanced people are violent but there are ones who are good and docile but he doesn't tell it in the movie but has shot a separate footage to literally lecture this message which is very bad writing, rookie and cheap. To add to this he has a special appearance and a Voice Over story for a twist or sequel purpose which reminded me of Vallavan.
Many movies are bad, some are good but this one is outright flat.

some spoilers here ... please highlight to read them.
I am a little confused with Meenatchiammal character. Did she
sexually abuse Veera as a 15 year old boy? Is that why she wanted the authorities to go easy on him? Afraid that he would reveal her abuses?
If that is so, why was there a scene of him
"raping" her when he was 17 years old? Anyone understands?

Meenatchiammal character- Sympathy character
She lost everything for just taking that kid under her custody.
She is the extrem affected character by the phsyco in this MOVIE(!).

1)"Did she sexually abuse Veera as a 15 year old boy?"-NO
2)"Is that why she wanted the authorities to go easy on him? Afraid that he would reveal her abuses? "- That is what Samaar reveals in his statement(i personally feel that she felt Samaar as a kid who did murder out of possessiveness & she have forgiven him for his future.

In his confession, he mentions that he was abused
by her when he was underaged and that is why she didn't want the authorities to investigate him.
Maybe the rape was a figment of Samar's imagination?

ajay, she was fine. everyone did their roles decently. I felt that sameera's role was not well executed, as we couldnt feel any sympathy for her.
Talking of thrilling moments, I can think of two recent movies: Naadodigal and Myna. The sambo siva sambo song was nail biting, while the bus crash scene in Myna was seat edge gripping.

This is an outrageously sweeping statement. I take it as an "over the top" retort to Geno's post.
KK/VA ellam Shankar-ukku varaadhu just like how Senthilman/Indian/ Muthlavan etc. won't for GVM.
Personally to me, the only 2 Shankar movies that really impressed me till data were "Paais" and "Enthiran". And Enthiran, Shankar only fossible, kudos to him for that.

In a very different way, since I watched movies like I Spit on Your Grave, Thriller:a Cruel picture etc, I have always had this thought. In another 10 years perarasu movie's DVD/Bluray/whatever will be the most sold entertainment stuff.

TELUGU NADUNISI-NAAYGAL-
Erra Gulabeelu
"Sridevi’s nephew and popular Tamil actress Maheshwari’s brother Deva was recently in town for the premiere of his film Erra Gulabilu. The rising star was in a great mood as Sridevi herself was present during the occasion to lend support.
In a candid chat, the actor speaks about his aunt’s influence on his life and how he got into the industry.
“I studied MBA in the UK before coming back to India. I did want to act someday and wanted to be part of the film industry. I spoke to Gautham Vasudev Menon Sir and told him about my interest in films. One night Gautham Sir met me and offered me a cop’s role in a thriller movie, I was shocked,” says the actor.
Deva can’t stop praising Gautham Vasudev Menon. “He was guiding me all the way. Everyone, even established actors, wants to work with him. I was lucky to be a part of his film.”
There were rumours that the actress found her nephew’s debut movie too vulgar, but Sridevi herself clears the air. “I am here to encourage my nephew, and I really liked the film. I wish him all the best for the movie and for his career in the film industry.”

I am not pointing any similarities, just that Kangalal ... was well made than Nadusini ... The suspense was good and very well carried forward, except that it was quite commercial with songs and other scenes for Indian audiences.
Comming to Nadusini ... narration was good with lots of squealings though ... it will surely become a cult classic in the years to come, but it falls short for the current audiences. Just like certain movies "Hey Ram" or "Iruvar" or .... this movie will get all the glores in the future.

If you want a violent version, get a copy of "God is Bullet" by Boston Terran. No movie adaptation has been made yet though.
Talking about Mystic River, The character are well developed by Dennis Lehane and ofcoarse the adaptation stayed sincere eventhough it could not cover much.

Agreed that everyone has his own views!
GVm is a police-state anuthaabi; Shankar is a Mobocracy advocate. His films gentlemen, mudhalvan, indian (except the climax), anniyan were Fascist films outright.

Some random thoughts about nadunisi naigal:
-> Veera's bald headed / head shaved looks and his mannerism of sneezing / nose antics, resemble what Kamal did for Aalvanthan.
-> The Mask that Samar's father and his guests use in their orgy parties - resemble what Stanley kubrick uses to show as being used by Free liberal communities - in "Eyes Wide shut"
-> And the scene where Young Samar accidentally sees his Father's dirty gatherings, is "screen-played" - to resemble - what the Young Sophie would have looked at, when she accidentally finds out about her grandfather Sauniere, The head of Priory of Scion, executing his act of copulation from "Da vinci code".
The Status Quoist, pro-establishment, police state admirer that GVm is, we can take a wild guess that this was his way of derisioning anti-establishment.

-> Veera's bald headed / head shaved looks and his mannerism of sneezing / nose antics, resemble what Kamal did for Aalvanthan.
-> The Mask that Samar's father and his guests use in their orgy parties - resemble what Stanley kubrick uses to show as being used by Free liberal communities - in "Eyes Wide shut"
-> And the scene where Young Samar accidentally sees his Father's dirty gatherings, is "screen-played" - to resemble - what the Young Sophie would have looked at, when she accidentally finds out about her grandfather Sauniere, The head of Priory of Scion, executing his act of copulation from "Da vinci code".
The Status Quoist, pro-establishment, police state admirer that GVm is, we can take a wild guess that this was his way of derisioning anti-establishment.
Interesting. This actually piques my interest.

It might be a surprise to most but there are circles in TN where people talk to their Dogs in English - and not just in Chennai. Why is this a deal-breaker for many people?
(We are okay with all sorts of unrealistic conversations in masala movies but this (assuming this is unreal) hurts? And when it is not unreal anyway, how does it hurt?)

And as far as the mosquito is concerned, people should understand that the film is of the fantasy genre. We have seen trees walking and talking to each other in fantasy films like Lord of the Rings. So-called / wannabe qOlity films like Mynaa etc are much worse than films like Enthiran which do not claim themselves to be award winners / qOlity films.

Nerd, Endhiran is NOT a fantasy film.
A fantasy film is like superman, spiderman, etc.
Endhiran is a sci-fi.
I find it strange that you want to back something which is so obviously stupid.

I welcome all directors who don't insult the intelligence of their audience and am not looking for (honest) award winning movies in commercial thamizh cinema industry.
Sorry sir I don't need to see pervious pages, I take your word for that ! If you are comparsion were in lines of saying
Mr. Tanker (barrowed from by beloved gabbuer) and Mr.Cowtham are 2 asipring deractors from TN who target / copy hollywood style of story telling

Quoting a scene from different genre of movie to elevate this "TRASH" is not acceptable.

Personally, I'd diagnose Shankar's films to be malformed, reckless, irrational bourgeoisie angst/wish-fulfillment than 'fascistic' (I actually like films that explores this fascistic desire without endorsing it completely, ala Taxi Driver or even the vastly polemical Salo) which is a a complicit terminology (frankly that would seem wasted on him). Which is why the resulting anti-establishment spin in all his films lack nuance. Very cardboardish.

Vetri is looking good. What about that guy with thadee and long hair who is actor -cum -deractor took couple of nice movies..
There are plenty. Movies like the one in discussion might kill few from venturing in to tru physco thriller territory..
You won't believe when I say this . I started seeing new tamil movies only in 3-4 years. Before that just Thaliavar movies nothing other than that.
Before that I thought it was a mediocre repetative run of the mill movies, same love story , same dushum dushum.. ! and same old happy ending routine.
It has changed but we got a very long way to go.

Of course NOV, nobody denied. Enthiran was a welcome change and after all it had a sad ending.
But at least we are not desperately promoting absolutely stupid films like Mynaa, NadodigaL just because they are different. Different from run-of-the-mill does not equate to GOOD or QUALITY. I am glad some hubbers are endorsing real quality films unlike you.

I wish to call Kamalhassan as Martin Scorsese and Robert de niro bundled into one!
Some one will make fun of that! Thats natural!
Well everybody was bragging about enthiran including vairamuththu, due to SUN NETWORK's pressure as they put lots of money on it. Shankar never has certified himself as great or criticized other directors like this guy GVM!
Gautham Vasudeva Menon is a gutsy guy. In the weekly column
"love/hate" in "The Hindu", Cinema Plus (Feb 8), he has ripped Vikram-
Lingusamy Bheema to shreds!
The film Gautham loves is Mani Ratnam classic Nayakan, which he says is
his "all time favourite film". And why he hates Bheema, Gautham
explains- "when you see Bheema, you are left wondering what Vikram
saw in the narration and in the first place made him sign a film like this.
The way it was made, it was a rip-off of so many films without a trace of
originality running through it."
The ace director further asks- "When you see a film that has a scene that
reminds you of your own film, you don't know whether they are trying to
emulate you or imitate you… In so many places, it was like
Thalapathy,like Company,like Kaakha Kaakha and the last scene was
straight out of The Departed. More than being a film I hate, it was a film
that completely disappointed me."
Will Vikram and Lingusamy defend their much publicised "classic with
never-seen-before stunning climax" ?
Does GVM comes up wtih all original thoughts?

நாய்களுடன் கெளதம் மேனன் வீடு முன் போராட்டம்!
நடுநிசி நாய்கள் என்ற படத்தின் மூலம் கலாச்சார சீரழிவுக்கும் புதிய வகை வக்கிரத்துக்கும் அடிகோலியுள்ள கவுதம் மேனனைக் கண்டித்து நாய்களுடன் அவர் வீட்டு முன் போராட்டம் நடத்துவோம் என்று அறிவித்துள்ளது இந்து மக்கள் கட்சி.
கவுதம் மேனன் புதிதாக இயக்கி வெளியிட்டுள்ள படம் நடுநிசி நாய்கள். இந்தப் படம் ஆபாசமாகவும், வக்கிரமாகவும் உள்ளதாக குற்றச்சாட்டு எழுந்துள்ளது.
இதையடுத்து இந்தப் படத்தை எடுத்த கவுதம் மேனனைக் கண்டித்து புதிய போராட்டத்தை அறிவித்துள்ளது, இத்தகைய போராட்டங்களை அறிவிப்பதில் சமீபகாலமாக பிரபலமடைந்து வரும் இந்து மக்கள் கட்சி.
அதில், "அருவருப்பையும் வக்கிரத்தையும் பகிரங்கமாக படமெடுத்து விட்டிருக்கிறார் கவுதம் மேனன். இதன் மூலம் இளைஞர்கள் வாழ்க்கையை சீரழித்துள்ளார்.
வளர்ப்பு தாயை கூட தாய் ஸ்தானத்தில் வைத்து பார்ப்பதுதான் நமது பண்பாடு. ஆனால் கவுதம்மேனன் அந்த உறவை விரசமாக்கி விஷம் கலந்துள்ளார்.
எங்கேயாவது இது போன்று தவறு நடக்கலாம். அதை திரையில் வெளிச்சம் போட்டு காட்டக் கூடாது. அப்படி செய்தால் அது போன்ற தவறுகள் பரவ வாய்ப்பு இருக்கிறது. இயக்குனர்கள் பொறுப்புணர்வோடு நடந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும்.
தந்தையே மகனை பாலியல் தொழில் செய்வோர் கூட்டத்தில் அனுமதித்து சித்ரவதை செய்யும் சீன்கள் எவரும் சிந்திக்காதது. இது போன்ற சீன்களை படத்தில் இருந்து நீக்க வேண்டும். இனி அவர் இந்த மாதிரி படமே எடுக்கக் கூடாது.
இந்தப் படத்தையும் கவுதம் மேனனையும் கண்டித்து, அவர் வீட்டு முன் நாய்களுடன் நள்ளிரவில் போராட்டம் நடத்தத் திட்டமிட்டுள்ளோம். ஆனால் நள்ளிரவுப் போராட்டத்துக்கு அனுமதி இல்லாததால், பகலில் நாய்களுடன் அவர் வீட்டு முன் போராட்டம் நடத்துவோம்", என்று கூறப்பட்டுள்ளது.
English summary
Hindu Makkal Katchi has warned director Gautham Menon that if he doesn't remove certain scenes from the movie Nadunisi Naaygal, it will protest infront of his house with dogs. Directors should give good movies and should not kindle the people to take the wrong path, it added.

Nadunisi Naaygal has a well-intended message on Child Abuse although the message stays detached from the rest of the film. Scenes of violence, murder and sex witnessed early in childhood creates an emotional dependency in Veera with the woman who rescues him from his father. The promiscuous father puts the kid through orgies, sexually abusing him to make him a serial killer and psychopath. From the 1960’s “Psycho” directed by Alfred Hitchcock to the Anthony Hopkins starrer “The Silence of The Lambs”, Gautham Menon’s “Nadunisi Naaygal” has all of them.
Veera enacts the role of a 13 year old guy which does not look like what is said. The wig can fly off his head at any time, if wind blows on his face. From there on, he goes on to grow butchering girls for which Veera is not the most responsible for. The painful silence of no background music but proper rerecording of sounds engage without the conspicuousness of the absence of the BGM. Live sounding dialogues strain your ears to bleeding putting you in an inability to distinguish English dialogues from Tamil.
Nadunisi Naaygal is definitely not a rural delight but the metros will embrace the film for its stylish making and classy approach. Gautham Menon does sell and his directorial finesse which borrows only creative aspects from popular movies to transmute them in his style attracts and yet the director does portray women with adherence to the likeability of women. He has tried to conceal the fact that the film titillate with subliminal and sexually suggestive content and has come up trumps in doing so.
Veera shuttles between Narcissism and Inverted Narcissism of satisfying his urges and the desires of Meenakshi Amma whose fate is revealed at the end. It is symbolically revealed in the middle when she suffers burn injuries after Veera sets her husband ablaze. Nadunisi Naaygal is far from Bharathi Raja’s Sigappu Rojakkal but is quite close to “The Silence of the Lambs” in terms of Meenakshi Amma’s desire to knit the hair of young girls. This also has something unrevealed till the end.
The emotional dependency then turns out to be an emotional interdependency between the two pivotal characters – Veera and Meenakshi Amma. One fine moment of the film is when the director creates a ‘no way out’ for Sameera Reddy when Veera is beaten by her. When she attempts to escape, a completely new set of enemies confront her which is one of class in writing. With a shorter length and with releasing in lesser theaters, the hitherto unseen aspects of Indian filmmaking can generate prospects for the film to release in more centers.
Even then, the inspirations are evident which has happened from ‘Psycho’ and ‘The Silence of the Lambs’ predominantly and a slew of other films of the contemporary period. From the ‘Psycho’ to ‘Anniyan’, ‘Nadunisi Naaygal’ has all which is also based on a real life story. The leitmotiv of the film on ‘Child Abuse’ is overshadowed by the psychopathic tendencies of the film.
The climax is altogether riveting with unseen production values, designs and dark, handheld and candid cinematography of Manoj Paramahamsa. When Veera is shot by Sameera Reddy, it almost looks like a deliberate “The Silence of the Lambs”. Nadunisi Naaygal is not suitable for women as well as children and saying it is not at all suitable is more apt, since it captivates you with disturbing images, blood and gruesome murders. This disclaimer ought to be issued prior since it cannot accommodate children at any cost.

Thrills & Suspense
(!)
Absence of Background Music not felt

No Rural Takers
Heavy Inspiration from other films
Disturbing
Verdict
Nadunisi Naaygal is a film for adults and parents to keep an eye on their children who could be physically as well as sexually abused with a high probability when vulnerable. It is also about responsibility as parents and if any ignorance could lead children to child abuse by the parents themselves, it needs to be learned not to. Instead of cornering Nadunisi Naaygal as an untoward film, it could be seen by parents and adults alike which could give one a sneak preview into the world of sexuality that victimizes the vulnerable young children.

ப்ளு ஃபிலிம் இயக்குனரின் சமீபத்திய படத்தில் காட்டப்படும் பிரச்சினை நடக்கவே இல்லை என சொல்லவில்லை..
அது ஆபத்தான , தடுக்கப்பட வேண்டிய, கடும் நடவடிக்கைக்கு உரிய குற்றம்.. அதில் மாற்று கருத்து இல்லை..
ஆனால் அதைத்தான் வேட்டையாடு விளையாடு போன்ற படங்களில் காண்பித்து விட்டார்களே..மீண்டும் அதையே எடுப்பது, இயக்குனரின் வக்கிர புத்தியைதானே காட்டுகிறது..
எடுத்த விதமும் அவர் முந்தைய படம் போலவே இருக்கிறது..

'அம்மாவே மகனுடன்...'
-கவுதம் வீட்டில் விளக்குமாறுடன்
விடுதலை சிறுத்தைகள்!
Last Updated 12:30 Hrs [IST], February 23, 2011
'டைரக்டர் சாமிய கடவுளாக்கிட்டாருப்பா கவுதம் மேனன்' என்று ரசிகர்கள் ஓப்பனாக கமெண்ட் அடிக்கிற அளவுக்கு போய்விட்டது நிலைமை!
மாமனார்-மருமகள் தகாத உறவையே சகித்துக் கொள்ள முடியாமல் அப்படத்தை முடக்கிப் போட்டது தமிழகம். அந்த காயம் மறைவதற்கு முன்னாலேயே அடுத்த ஷாட் அடித்துவிட்டார் கவுதம்.
இவரது 'நடுநிசி நாய்கள்' படத்தில் அம்மாவே மகனுடன்.... 'அடப்பாவிங்களா' என்று பெண்கள் பதறுகிற காட்சியை தியேட்டர்களில் காண முடிகிறது. இதை எப்படி சென்சாரில் அனுமதித்தார்கள் என்ற கேள்வி ஒரு புறம் இருக்க, படத்தின் இயக்குனர் கவுதம் வீட்டை முற்றுகையிட துடிக்கிறது சில சமூக நல அமைப்புகளும் அரசியல் கட்சிகளும். இந்து மக்கள் கட்சியினர் நாய்களுடன் சென்று மறியல் நடித்தினார்கள் நேற்று. இன்று...?
விடுதலை சிறுத்தைகள் கட்சியினரும் இந்த போராட்டத்தை கையில் எடுத்திருப்பதாக நமக்கு தகவல் கிடைத்திருக்கிறது. இன்றோ, அல்லது நாளையோ கையில் விளக்குமாறுடன் இக்கட்சியின் முக்கிய பிரமுகர்களும் பெண்கள் பிரிவினரும் கவுதம் வீட்டை முற்றுகையிட திட்டமிட்டிருக்கிறார்களாம். இதற்கான வியூகங்கள் கட்சியின் தலைமை அலுவலகத்தில் வகுக்கப்பட்டு வருவதாக தகவல்.
ஆஹா... படத்தை ஓட வச்சுருவாங்க போலிருக்கே!

This may not become cult classic. Because the templates for most of the scenes are not original. They have been lifted from Sigappu rOjAkkal and Alavanthaan and Psycho...
But definitely this has made one to think that Gautham is probably a better director/filmmaker than "Terracota Horses" like Manirathnam and "Trojan Horses" like Shankar!

Gautham Menon accepts negative feedback
Tuesday, Feb 22, 2011
Gautham Vasudev Menon's Nadunissi Naaygal (NN) has got grand opening despite getting mixed response from the audience. The director, who is at the receiving end from the critics and a section of his fans, has apologized them if they have not liked the film.
Gautham Menon, who has created his own fan base, has said that he anticipated much-before the release of Nadunissi Naaygal that it would receive mixed bag of reviews. But as a filmmaker, he loves to experiment and wants to do different genres. He accepted and apologized if Nadunissi Naaygal has let down his fans. However, he added that he stand by NN.
Meanwhile, he is gearing up for his Hindi version of Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa, which features Prateik Babbar and Amy Jackson in the lead roles. He has also started scripting world for his next Tamil movie, which is expected to hit the floors in July 2011.

Well the story starts with a police investigation => confession of a individual => victim => police investigation => conffession of the individual => so on so forth. So it goes in round, and the script really takes care by starting it with a point and finishing the circle beautifully without confusing the audiences.

This reminds me something.. Hubber Sudha voted for Menon as best director of 2010 (naanum avarukkuthaan vote paNNaen) and the reason she told me was "SimbuvEyE oru kattuppaatukku kondu vanthu nadikka vechaar paarunga - kandippaa periya Director thaan "

Remembered an incident that happened during the shooting of 'Kovil'. He was late for shooting (I presume that he was regular in being irregular). Hari, on the mike shouted, " Avan enna peria __________ah? Avan illaati vera hero illaiya? Advance'ai thiruppi koduthuttu avana poga sollunga". Those who witnessed that (including me) were shellshocked. Till that moment, I had a belief that hero was above all..

Engaginga irunda dhanea you will worry about BGM, Guys keeps jumping from 1 branch to another with absolutely no relevance to screenplay and flow of the movie.
Just like Nerd mention, he tries to educate his empty theaters about what he was trying to convey in last 5 mins.

'Nadunisi Naaygal' (Tamil, Psycho-thriller)
Director: Gautham Vasudev Menon
Cast: Veera, Sameera Reddy, Swapna, Deva
Child sexual abuse and its effect on the psyche of the victim, at times resulting in a personality disorder, forms the focal point of Menon’s new film ‘Nadunisi Naaygal’, a psycho-thriller.
It’s a tightrope walk for the director as he brings on screen the mind-set of a disturbed personality and he has crossed it well. It’s a splendid debut by Veera (an assistant of Menon) in a role that is challenging even for a seasoned actor.
The early scenes depict seven-year-old Samar, a motherless boy, being sexually abused by his debauched father and forced to participate in his group orgies. Meenakshi, a concerned neighbour (excellent work by Swapna, despite the ambiguity of her character) rescues the frightened boy and brings him up. But it’s incomprehensible why she, though sensible enough, doesn’t get the sexually traumatised boy any psychological counselling.
Battling with the demons of his past, Veera is haunted by nightmares. His feelings for Meenakshi amma takes on an aggressively sexual tone as he steps into adolescence. She becomes his first victim.
From then on, it’s a series of stalking, raping, killing women and scalping their hair till Sukanya, Veera’s schoolmate, enters his life. Sameera renders a noteworthy portrayal as the terrified but feisty Sukanya, trapped in a mad man’s mansion and trying hard to get out of there.
The film begins promisingly and maintains an interesting pace in the earlier scenes and the key strength is Manoj Paramahamsa’s cinematography. To a great extent it helps relieve the claustrophobic feel one experiences, as the action being largely confined to Veera’s fortress.
Appreciably, the film has no background music, the ambient sounds giving the necessary feel.
On the flip side, it’s a predictable scenario, as the twists and turns go on the expected lines. Most importantly, it misses out the fear and thrill quotients, so essential to a movie of this genre. The open ending, paves way for sequel. This ‘Sigappu Rojakkal’ meets ‘Psycho’ flick, is definitely not for the squeamish or the faint hearted.

Story: Samar (Veera) is forced to participate in sex orgies by his father even as an eight-year old. Some years later, a neighbour Meenakshi (Swapna Abraham) notices something amiss with him and decides to find out what is happening in his house.
She stumbles on an orgy in which the boy is being forced to take part. She calls in the cops to rescue the boy, but his father fires on the police team and ultimately commits suicide. Meenakshi takes in Samar, renames him Veera and tries to bring a semblance of normalcy in his life. He grows up into a young adult, but then Samar/Veera starts getting nightmares about his childhood and believes that only Meenakshi can save him. He develops feelings for her, and when she decides to get married, all hell breaks loose.
Movie Review: Gautham Menon takes up a very pertinent issue as the theme of 'Nadunisi Naaygal' (midnight dogs) — child sex abuse and the effect it has on children, even though they do not all grow up to be the monster portrayed in the movie.
The promotional advertisements claimed that the movie was based on a true story, but it seems heavily inspired from the characters with split personalities in Thomas Harris' books 'Red Dragon' and 'The Silence of the Lambs'. In the first, the protagonist is unable to control his violent, sexual urges because of abuse he suffered as a child, and in the second a serial killer kidnaps women and skins them. In 'Nadunisi Naaygal', Veera kidnaps, sexually abuses women, kills them and then removes their scalp for their hair.
Veera has tremendous screen presence and fulfils the faith reposed in him by the director. In his earlier avataar he was a production assistant to Gautham Menon, but he has taken to acting like a natural. Though he seemed a bit raw in the scenes where he was portrayed as a school student, he comes into his own in the later half of the movie. Sameera Reddy shines as Sukanya, one of the women kidnapped by Veera. At first she protests timidly to be let free but when she realises that there is no way out, she fights Veera like a wildcat. One of the best scenes of the movie is when, drenched to the skin, she tries to flee from captivity by evading the killer guard dogs. Deva, another assistant of the director, makes a confident debut as ACP Vijay, who rescues Sukanya and other women held captive by Veera.
Manoj Paramahamsa quite literally makes a splash from the first scene onwards when Veera shoots dead a cop who falls in a puddle of water. The close-ups of the mentally-ill protagonist and the shots inside his SUV, in which he kidnaps Sukanya, and his house add to the claustrophobic feel of the movie.
There are no songs nor any background music in the movie, and the audience gets to hear only the ambient noise in the surroundings where the scenes are shot. A novel attempt indeed.
But what was the need to have brought in Samantha (who had a guest appearance in 'Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya' also) for a single scene as an inmate of the mental asylum where Veera is also sent? Was it an indication of a 'Bonnie and Clyde' or 'Natural Born Killers' type sequel in the works?
In his earlier movies 'Vettaiyaadu Velayadu', 'Vaaranam Aayiram' and 'Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya', Gautham Menon had pushed the envelope when it came to presentation and themes, but in 'Nadunisi Naaygal' he takes it a bit too far. Best, let the sleeping dogs lie.

Veera is charged about playing a psychopath in Nadunisi Naaigal
Veera is keeping his fingers crossed as Nadunisi Naaigal, a psychopath thriller, directed by Gautam Menon hits the screens tomorrow. This young assistant director, who worked with Gautam Menon for five years, makes his debut as an actor with this film. “While assisting a film, you work in a protected environment, when it comes to Nadunisi…I feel a little insecure because it is like coming out of your comfort zone and taking on more responsibilities. But, I love to be an actor. And what more, I get to chase the beautiful Sameera Reddy,” he laughs. Veera was at GRD College in Coimbatore along with Sameera Reddy for an interaction with students. Veera grew up on a diet of Kamal Hassan films. “When I saw his Kuridhi Punal, I decided to become an actor,” he says. He is a regular guy who has idli vada for breakfast (no protein diets), plays basketball and watches movies. “I am pretty much the Karthik (played by Simbu) whom you saw in Gautam Menon's Vinnaithaandi Varuvaya,” says the young actor.
Success story
Ask him to define success and he says every single actor from Nagesh sir and Rajnikanth to Kamal Hassan and Surya, everyone is successful in their own way. “I personally consider myself successful for having completed acting in Nadunisi...” Veera frequents Coimbatore. And, explores places in Gobichettipalayam and Erode with his friends. Gautam Menon also shot portions of Vaaranam Ayiram, especially the helicopter shot where the narrative begins, in Coimbatore. Veera plays one of the commandos who walks up to Surya in the film and consoles him after they get the message of his father's death. “It was a memorable experience where we filmed the aerial shot. It was scary to sit in an open chopper. I managed to get a bird's eye view of Coimbatore from 3,500 ft up in the air,” he recalls.
Sameera Reddy and Veera share a great rapport. “He is so focussed, exceeded our expectations and surprised everyone,” she says about her co-star. “I didn't have to go that extra mile to get friendly with Sameera as I have worked with her already as a director,” Veera adds. The students had lined up a set of rapid fire questions for the actors who were quite game for it. Name an item queen (‘Fatafat Jayalakshmi', answers Veera). Is it Munni badnami or Sheila ki jawani? “Munni badnami, hands down,” comes the quick answer from Sameera.

Why are Gautham fans upset anyway - he never established himself as a yuppie romantic director! His films have always included complicated psychopath characters - Jeevan off KK, Daniel Balaji and Saleem Baig off VV, Milind and Jyo off PM, Prithvi off VA......

Interesting Incident
Day before yesterday my cousin & her husband went to Devi theater to watch 'NADUNISI NAAYGAL', When they went to park the vehicle token person asked which theater to guide them in parking, when they replied 'NADUNISI NAAYGAL' he asked them to reconsider their decision. They further walked to ticket counter a person who overheard their conference ran to them & requested them not to go to 'NADUNISI NAAYGAL' as he just out of that movie & convinced them to take ticket for Yuddam sei.
This is an unusual thing in ‘METRO CITY’ where people don’t care about next door people. This shows how he had been tortured by 'NADUNISI NAAYGAL' & he doesn’t want a stranger to feel that pain.

That is our culture!
One of my american friends mentioned that, when he was walking in the crowded street, someone snatched his umbrella and ran into the crowd.
The peope around there caught that guy and beat him up and gave the umbrella to the white american guy.
He was amazed to see such help from PUBLIC.
He said it would never happen in US! He was kind of pleased with people those who care for the strangers in India!

hmmm.... screenplay is (arguably) pre-execution phase, right? The assumption is when the director starts/goes to the shooting schedule, the "paper" is already ready on hand. Though I must caveat it by saying it also depends/varies based on the "working style" of the director.
Anyways, I get your point, Balajee.

'மம்மா மியா' போன்ற ஆங்கில நாடகங்களில் ஈடுபாடுள்ள ஸ்வப்னா ஆப்ரஹாமை, நடுநிசி நாய்கள் படத்தில் சர்ச்சைக்குரிய 'மீனாட்சியம்மா' ரோலில் டைரகடர் கெளதம் நடிக்க வைத்தார்.
நிஜத்தில் டீன் ஏஜ் செல்லங்கள் மேல் அளவு கடந்த அன்பைக்காட்டும் மம்மியாக இவர் நடித்துள்ளார். இளமையும் கொஞ்சம் 'மெச்சூரான' பெண்ணாக நடிக்க ஸ்வப்னாவை தேர்ந்தெடுத்தாராம் கெளதம்.
எடுத்த எடுப்பிலேயே இந்த ரோலை பண்ண, கடுமையான மேக்கப்பில் நடிக்க வேண்டியிருக்கும் என்பதை அறிந்ததும் சற்று தயக்கம் இருந்தது. இந்த படத்திற்காக என் அன்றாட வேலையை முடித்து, மணிக்கணக்கில் மேக்கப் போட்டும், மேக்கப்பை கலைக்கவும் மணிக்கணக்கான நேரம் செலவானது.
நிஜமாகவே அந்த கேரக்டராக வாழ்ந்ததை போல உணர்கிறேன். படத்தில் வீரா உடன் சர்ச்சைக்குரிய கேரக்டரில் நடித்ததை பற்றி என்னிடம் கேட்கிறார்கள். வீரா-மீனாட்சி கேரக்டர்களின் உணர்வுகளை புரிந்தும் ஆடியன்ஸ் படம் பார்க்கிறார்கள்.
சென்சிடிவ் ட்ரீட்மென்ட்டில் டைரக்டர் கெளதம் மேனன் எதை சொல்ல நினைத்தாரோ, அதை சரியாக படத்தில் சொல்லியிருக்கிறார் என்று டைரகடர் கௌதமை ஆதரித்து பேசியுள்ளாராம் ஸ்வப்னா. பட உலகம் ' சவாலான ரோல்' வாய்ப்பை தந்தாலும் அதை ஏற்று நடிக்க தயாராக உள்ளாராம் அவர்.

'நடுநிசி நாய்கள்' என்ற சைக்கோ படத்தை குறைந்த செலவில் தயாரித்து, ஏகத்துக்கும் லாபம் பார்த்துள்ளார் கௌதம் மேனன்.
படம் குறித்து அதிர்ச்சியும் வேதனையும் கலந்து விமர்சனங்கள் வந்தாலும், முதல் சில நாட்களிலேயே போட்ட காசை எடுத்துவிட்டார்களாம். முதல் வார முடிவில் விநியோகஸ்தர் ஷேராக ரூ 1.10 கோடி இந்தப் படம் மூலம் கிடைத்துள்ளது.
இந்த தெம்போடு அடுத்த தமிழ்ப் படத்தை ஆரம்பிக்கிறார் கௌதம் மேனன். ஜூலையில் துவங்கும் இந்தப் படத்தில் அநேகமாக சூர்யா நடிக்கக் கூடும் என்கிறார்கள். ஹீரோயின் எமி ஜாக்ஸன்.
'மதராசபட்டினம்' புகழ் அதே எமிதான். அநேகமாக இந்தப் படம் அவர் நீண்ட நாட்களாக தள்ளிப் போட்டு வந்த 'சென்னையில் ஒரு மழைக்கால'மாக இருக்கலாம் என்று கூறப்படுகிறது.
அதன் பிறகு அடுத்து தனது இந்திப் படத்தை ஆரம்பிக்கிறார் கௌதம் மேனன். 'விண்ணைத்தாண்டி வருவாயா' படத்தின் ரீமேக் இது. த்ரிஷா வேடத்தில், எமி ஜாக்ஸனே நடிக்கிறார். பிரதீக் பாபர், ஓமி வைத்யா ஆகியோர் நடிக்கும் இந்தப் படத்துக்கு ஏ.ஆர். ரஹ்மான்தான் இசை. பாடல்கள் ஏற்கெனவே தயாராக உள்ளதால், நேராக படப்பிடிப்புக்குச் செல்கிறாராம் கௌதம் மேனன்.

திமிங்கலங்களின் பயணம்
நடுநிசி நாய்கள் படம் குறித்து இதுவரை வந்ததில் - மிகப் பொருட்படுத்தக்கூடிய ஒரு விமர்சனப் பார்வை, பதிவு. விவாத அரங்குகளை விடவும், வலைப்பதிவுகள் - சமூகப் பார்வையை அழுத்தமாகப் பதிவு செய்ய சரியான களங்கள் என்பதை மீண்டும் மெய்ப்பிக்கும் பதிவு. திமிங்கலங்கள் மீன் தொட்டியில் நீந்துவதில்லை.
http://tamilcharam.net/nadu-nisi-naygal-movie-review/
"................................................. ..............................................
இன்னொரு குற்றச்சாட்டு மொண்ணைத்தனமானது. இத்திரைப்படம் தமிழ் கலாசாரத்தை, விழுமியங்களை சேதப்படுத்தியிருக்கிறது என்பதும், சமூகத்தின் எங்கோ ஒரு மூலையில் நிகழ்வதை பொதுவெளியில் ஏன் பிரதானப்படுத்த வேண்டும் என்பதும்.
ஒரு கட்டமைக்கப்பட்ட சமூகம் எல்லாவிதமான நிறைகளையும் குறைகளையும் புனிதங்களையும் வக்கிரங்களையும் கொண்டது. சமூகத்தின் இருண்மையான, அழுக்கான பகுதிகளை பொதுப்பரப்பில் வெளிச்சம் போட்டுக் காட்டுபவதே ஓர் உண்மையான கலைஞனின அடிப்படைப் பொறுப்பாக இருக்க முடியும். ‘கற்பு கற்பு என்று கதைக்கறீர்களே இதுதானய்யா பொன்னகரம்’ என்றெழுதினார் புதுமைப்பித்தன். எல்லா வக்கிரங்களையும் தன்னுள் கொண்டிருக்கும் சமூகம், இந்த நிர்வாண உண்மையை எதிர்கொள்ள முடியாமல் கண்கூசுகிறது, பதட்டமடைகிறது.
இதில் சர்ச்சைக்குரியதாக குற்றஞ்சாட்டப்பட்டிருக்கும் காட்சிகளை இயக்குநர் மிக subtle ஆக நாகரிகமாக கையாண்டிருக்கிறார். பார்வையாளனுக்கு ஆபாசக் கிளர்ச்சியை ஏற்படுத்த வேண்டும் என்கிற எண்ணம் அவருக்கில்லை என்பது காட்சிகளை கையாண்ட விதத்திலிருந்து தெளிவாகத் தெரிகிறது.
ஒருவித கையாலாகாத குற்றவுணர்வு நிலையில்தான் ஓர் ஆரோக்கிய மனநிலையில் உள்ள பார்வையாளன் அந்தக் காட்சிகளை எதிர்கொள்கிறான்.
ஆனால், நாயகியின் கையைத் தொட்டதுமே அவள் புணர்ச்சியின் உச்சத்திற்குச் சென்றதான முகபாவத்தையும், முத்தமிட்டுக் கொள்வதை இருபூக்கள் வந்து மறைப்பதையுமே பல ஆண்டுகள் கண்டு வந்திருந்த தமிழ்ச்சினிமா ரசிகனின் பொதுப்புத்தி, அதே மொண்ணைத்தனத்தோடு இயக்குநர் காட்டியிராததையும் தனது வக்கிரததால் நிரப்பிக் கொண்டு களித்து விட்டு பிறகு போலிப் பாசாங்காக கூக்குரலிடுகிறது.
நேரடி நிர்வாணத்தைவிட பார்வையாளன் இட்டு நிரப்பக்கூடிய சாத்தியத்துடன் கிளர்ச்சியை ஏற்படுத்த செயற்கையாக கட்டமைக்கப்படும் அபத்தங்கள் ஆபத்தானவை. பாலியல் வறட்சியில் அவதிப்படும் தமிழ் சமூகத்தில் இந்த ஆபத்து எரிகிற நெருப்பில் எண்ணையாய் மாறி கற்பழிப்புகளாகவும் சிறுமிகள்,குழந்தைகள் மீதான வன்கலவிகளாவும் நீள்கின்றன. ஆனால் இந்த நோய்களின் அறுவைச் சிகிச்சைகளுக்கான முயற்சிகளைக் கண்டு இந்தச் சமூகமே பதற்றப்படுவது நகைமுரண்.
இது போன்ற அரைவேக்காட்டுத்தனமான விமர்சனங்களால், இத்திரைப்படம் ஆபாசமானதோ என்று தயங்கி நிற்பவர்களை, முதிர்ச்சியுள்ள பார்வையாளர்களை, தயங்காமல் சென்று பாருங்கள் என்று பரிந்துரைக்கிறேன். சிக்கலான கதையமைப்புகளை, காட்சிகளைக் கொண்ட சில வெளிநாட்டு திரைப்பட டிவிடிகளில் ‘FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY’ என்று போட்டிருப்பார்கள். அதனுடைய முழு அர்த்தம் இப்போதுதான் விளங்குகிறது. கெளதம் மேனன் இதன் விளம்பரங்களில் ‘பலவீனமானவர்களுக்கு அல்ல’ என்று போட்டிருப்பதற்குப் பதிலாக ‘தயிர்வடைவாதிகளுக்கு அல்ல’ என்று போட்டிருக்கலாம்.

Just watched Nadunisi Naaigal last night. Was thoroughly disappointed with the movie. The apprehensions/suspicion I had about the movie (that our fellow hubber Softsword also rightly pointed out last week) came true. There are some unavoidable spoilers ahead.
In my book, among GVM’s films, NN joins PKMC in the worst films list till date. PKMC failed me because it was boring and more importantly it was largely aimless. In that sense, NN is just only a trifle better than PKMC. However, the problem with NN is that the movie failed miserably in what it set to do in the first place – i.e. “thrill” the viewer. There is no sense of suspense/thrill whatsoever and the movie was insultingly predictable. And GVM promoting this movie as a “thriller” as part of his pre-release promos in TV’s makes me think that perhaps GVM hasn’t understood what the “thriller” genre means in cinema.
There are too many negatives. To begin with, there is a lack of logic in few places – like Samar having no relatives to enquire or take care of him after his father’s death despite living in a big, luxurious Mumbai house. Also, how come his neighbor Meenakshi amma – being a single woman herself takes care of Samar as a guardian, as if she has no life. Too many logical questions ignored for convenience. Those logical issues wouldn’t have mattered if GVM had successfully traded them for thrill/suspense. But unfortunately GVM has traded them for nothing. It’s not as if that GVM – “the director” is at fault. The director has done his part well, handled lot of scenes/places with finesse, one good example being narrating the end of “Meenashi amma” in a visually clever fashion. But it’s GVM, the writer who was below par and let the movie down pretty badly. Again, when I say the writing/screen-play is bad – it is still cohesive/focused etc. but I meant it strictly in the context of the genre. The screen-play is just too simple and is no where remotely *intelligent* for a thriller/suspense drama. Take the case of Sigappu Rojakkal, the movie too had few logical cliché’s, but BR traded them successfully for building the suspense gradually and didn’t make the unraveling/ending phase overtly predictable. NN is not even 10% as good as SP in that regard. What is the purpose of long drawn out portrayal of Samar/Veera’s background? Veera’s actions gains zero sympathy hence his long drawn-out flashback of his childhood/adolescent days etc. was just a useless waste of the movie's running time. NN should have had only 2 phase – mystery and unraveling. Setting it up in the first person narrative mode with full biodata/flashback etc. is dumb. When will our filmmakers will learn to separate out the mystery/action part from drama?
Amidst these disasters - there are just couple of positives. a) At no point I was able to feel the absence of a background score. In fact having one, would have made it even worse. GVM, the director, deserves a mention for that b) Cinematography was pretty good (as always the case with any GVM film). The content smply didn't do any justice to the visuals/angles.
Final Verdict: NN is a "dumb" thriller movie with no thrill/suspense whatsoever.

Also, how come his neighbor Meenakshi amma – being a single woman herself takes care of Samar as a guardian, as if she has no life. Too many logical questions ignored for convenience. Those logical issues wouldn’t have mattered if GVM had successfully traded them for thrill/suspense. But unfortunately GVM has traded them for nothing. It’s not as if that GVM – “the director” is at fault. The director has done his part well, handled lot of scenes/places with finesse, one good example being narrating the end of “Meenashi amma” in a visually clever fashion. But it’s GVM, the writer who was below par and let the movie down pretty badly. Again, when I say the writing/screen-play is bad – it is still cohesive/focused etc. but I meant it strictly in the context of the genre. The screen-play is just too simple and is no where remotely *intelligent* for a thriller/suspense drama. Take the case of Sigappu Rojakkal, the movie too had few logical cliché’s, but BR traded them successfully for building the suspense gradually and didn’t make the unraveling/ending phase overtly predictable. NN is not even 10% as good as SP in that regard. What is the purpose of long drawn out portrayal of Samar/Veera’s background? Veera’s actions gains zero sympathy hence his long drawn-out flashback of his childhood/adolescent days etc. was just a useless waste of the movie's running time. NN should have had only 2 phase – mystery and unraveling. Setting it up in the first person narrative mode with full biodata/flashback etc. is dumb. When will our filmmakers will learn to separate out the mystery/action part from drama?
Amidst these disasters - there are just couple of positives. a) At no point I was able to feel the absence of a background score. In fact having one, would have made it even worse. GVM, the director, deserves a mention for that b) Cinematography was pretty good (as always the case with any GVM film). The content smply didn't do any justice to the visuals/angles.
Final Verdict: NN is a "dumb" thriller movie with no thrill/suspense whatsoever.
MC, Almost I have similar thoughts on movie. Looks like GVM did not care about any logic while doing the screenplay for this movie... Nowhere I felt that this is a GVM movie..
Sometime back Softsword used a word "Soora Mokkai" for a film, that comment will surely fit for this movie...

Just to clarify, my response to that blog review has got nothing do with the movie per se. It was only based on the ramblings about our thamizh kalaacharam. And it looks like some people here have failed to understand that part of the blogger's review. If a movie is not good in terms of making or any other technical aspects that's a different matter altogether (MC's review for example, is perfectly fine). But thamizh kalaacharatha koNdu varrathu is something really funny and sounds the height of hypocricy to me. Idhula kalaachara aLavukOl vaeRa.

H_H,
It was GVM who started the whole thing. He said Kalaipuli had interfered with his work when they worked together for Kaakka Kaakka. KP had replied that during the release of 'Thotti jaya' audio, the same GVM had thanked him for producing Kaakka Kaakka (which actually happened and I saw that function in Raj tv) when no producer was ready to do that movie.

Gautham Vasudev Menon
“Nadunisi Naaygal is new age Tamil cinema. I have tried to break the rules of regular Tamil cinema with this film. It's also in a genre that is new to me. It's experimental in the sense that it is a dark and disturbing film. It's a contrast to all my earlier films in every sense. In a way, it's an announcement that I am always looking to break away from a style that I am known for and create a new style for myself. Anything experimental and new will always be received with bouquets and brickbats and I am at a stage in my career where I fully understand that. I stand by this film with a lot of conviction. It’s not a film that you can walk out of saying that you loved it unless you are fond of this genre of films. It's an experience, that's all it is. And the last frame before the direction card will tell you why I decided to make this film. Your encouragement will hopefully pave the way for a new style in Tamil cinema and a new breed of Tamil filmmakers.”

I would love to encourage you (GVM) if you do something original not only with respect to tamil cinema but also to world cinema. Even people like Vasantha Balan, Bala, Ameer (paruthiveeran) are doing something different and experimental but "I" respect them better because they seem to respect the audience more.
