MANKATHA MOVIE REVIEW
Starring: Ajith Kumar, Trisha, Arjun, Andrea Jeremiah, Lakshmi Rai, Premji, Anjali, Vaibhav
Direction: Venkat Prabhu
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja
Production: Dayanidhi Azhagiri, (Cloud Nine Movies)
Mankatha after having played ‘uLLe veLiye’ for quite a while, strikes finally, AND in style! For his golden jubilee flick, Ajith, the ‘golden hearted’ lad of Tamil cinema teams up with the uber cool Venkat Prabhu and his gang of boys and the effect is exciting to say the least.
When you have the handsome Vinayak Mahadev (Ajith) team himself with a few boys on his ‘Money’ mission and when there is cop Prithviraj (Arjun) who is hot on their trail, what you get is a heady cocktail of events that suck you into the premise of Mankatha albeit a bit late.
For Venkat Prabhu, it is a huge responsibility to fuse in his irreverent style of film making with the sensibilities of Ajith’s image and the director has not compromised one bit here and kudos to him for this.
Mankatha unfolds languorously and takes its own sweet time to establish the premise when the major portion of the first half keep flitting in between many tracks with three romances. When you start wondering whether the movie is going anywhere at all, it shifts to third gear to be only brought down by a song or two. And when the director finally decides to cast everything else away and focus on the central plot, the story takes an interesting detour and mutates into a Grand Prix race all the way from the second half with Venkat Prabhu reserving all his aces for the climax.
There is always no dearth of humor in Venkat Prabhu’s films but in Mankatha it is a bit muted when compared to his other works. Mostly the comic lines are at the expense of Premji and the best example is his analogy with Youtube sensation Sam Anderson. Dialogues like - “Light pottutu daan otta koodadhu, lightaa pottutu ottalam” bring cheers. And the typical Venkat Prabhu’s conceptualization of humor in a serious situation still finds place but they are few.
The cat and the mouse game is exciting and the best part is you are never able to realize how many cats and mice are involved in the game. Even better is the fact that you cannot be quite sure of who is playing the double cross on whom and it is not until the final frame that you can put all the pieces together. Hats off to Venkat Prabhu for keeping the audience guessing all the way and scripting an absolute cracker of a climax! The chess board sequence just before the interval block is unique and intelligent.
The portions that looked unnecessary additions in the first half are all neatly explained in the context of things at the end, leaving no loose ends.
With an ensemble cast, there is every likelihood that at least a few would be relegated to the sidelines but all of them are there deservedly.
When we talk about performances, Ajith is unarguably the pièce de résistance of Mankatha and it is his uninhibited performance that captivates the audience. For him, it is a superb knock on the field well laid out by Venkat Prabhu. He simply sizzles in his action shots and his cute expressions in dance sequences are a revelation. The consistency in Ajith’s characterization is a major plus for the film. Next to Ajith, it is action king Arjun who has held on to his fort. Premji, Jaiprakash, Vaibhav, Mahat and Ashwin round out the supporting cast who blend in with ease with the story. As it is a men’s film, women have nothing to do in Mankatha.
On the downside, the number of gun battles and their lengths may tire you a bit and the vital heist which should have been extremely powerful lacks the fizz. Songs are not a value addition to the film at all and are mostly road blocks sans ‘Machi open the bottle’.
Success of a cinematographer and editor lies in their unobtrusive work in sync with the subject, and cinematographer Sakthi Saravanan and editors Praveen & Srikanth score in this department.
“Unakku ide maadiri 500 pondaati kedappa daa.” - with this dialogue, Ajith completes his mission of breaking all the syntax of a Tamil hero and has gone on to prove that an actor should strictly treat the script as the hero. Take a bow Ajith! It is a memorable 50th film indeed.
Verdict: Ajith's 'Golden' gamble with Venkat that has paid off !
__________________________________________________ ______________________
Braveheart Ajith and the fitting fifty!
At a time when movie buffs are being inebriated with the ecstasy of Ajith’s golden jubilee film Mankatha, one cannot but start thinking of the brave move of the handsome star for it needs real gumption to choose a role for his landmark film that defies all the templates that have been created hitherto in the Tamil (or may be Indian) film industry for heroes.
All along, whenever we had heroes doing an antagonist’s role, there were a few rules that were strictly adhered to. Primarily, the hero portraying the anti-hero material would surely have been affected with a serious psychological disorder, may be in younger years, which would be responsible for the indelible effect on his psyche and he would need help and attention to combat this aberration. A good example would be Kamal in Sigappu Rojakkal. A compelling reason for the non-valorous behavior indeed! But for this anomaly, the hero would be an epitome of all things good!
Secondly when the hero swindles money from the ‘have’s, it is only to distribute to the ‘have not’s for flooding them with healthcare, education and other humanely services to ensure that the hero is always immaculately blemish free because he is a HERO! And his Robinhood act is only to protect and save his fellow brethren in need. And till he breathes his last, his being is only for his compatriots. Gentleman Arjun is a perfect example whose actions need only eulogizing and nothing less than that!
Thirdly if the hero had to do all the antonym acts, then there would be an over build up of his character wherein he would be portrayed as a machismo who would rip apart all the baddies of the world with just a twitch in his biceps that would race to his knuckles in the blink of a well curled ‘mascara’ed eyelash and we have umpteen movies as testimony to this.
Quite refreshingly and much to the jubilance of filmphiles, none of the aforementioned features are not even remotely being expressed in the character of Vinayak Mahadev of Mankatha, scripted by Venkat Prabhu.
To put it simply, Vinayak Mahadev is someone who loves MONEY MONEY and MONEY. Nothing else! Nothing else can deter him in this pursuit, not even the gorgeous Trisha! The psyche of Vinayak Mahadev has not been landscaped into all things beautiful and virtuous and he stands before you in all his purity (!). This is a case of simple and straightforward portrayal, no distractions anywhere. This man wants money. And would do anything to get it. And we all know the world abounds in such characters and hence much relatable too!
Completely uncaring about something called image, Ajith unabashedly boozes, smokes, canoodles, lies to his lady love, sports a salt and pepper look with a slight paunch, mouths expletives with venom and he does all this sans a slightest iota of remorse because that is his way of life (on screen).
Ajith’s performance in Mankatha leads to a surmise that the potential of such an explosive actor had been royally squandered by directors (there could be few exceptions) in the past who had nothing else to show of him but slow motion shots of the debonair actor walking up and down in immaculate suits and designer shades. And, mind you, there were lots of people who doubted his dialogue delivering abilities but Mankatha proves them all wrong.
And now with Mankatha, it is evident that Ajith has completely come out of his old garb and has shown absolutely no trepidations to essay such a Kafkaesque portrayal despite the film being a milestone in his two decade long career in the world of gloss and glory.
Cut to the real life, Ajith has come across as someone who is honest and forthright, qualities that are quite rare in the world that we inhabit. He is famous for his politically incorrect statements and is known to speak his mind courageously without any embellishments whatsoever. We have seen him stand up for his principles during a felicitation meet of the former CM seeking his help to artists who did not want to be dragged into such events. In an industry which thrives on fan clubs and fans, he was gutsy enough to disband them overnight, an act which is simply unfathomable in a normal context.
Therefore it certainly does not come as a surprise that Ajith chose to do Vinayak Mahadev of Mankatha without vacillation because it is after all a character that he is playing and he did not mind about the ‘heroic’ image. To quote his stance from the film, “Naan evvaLuvu naaL daan nallavana nadikkaradu”. He just wanted to do a role that was different and exciting. And looking at the film, anybody would see that Ajith has had a field day playing Vinayak Mahadev. A job well-done Ajith!
On a signing off note; if all our heroes shred their so called image to take on such roles and entertain, movie buffs would do a rambunctious jig and would simply say MANKATHA da!

துப்புனா பிரசாதம், தூங்குனா மோனநிலைன்னு அஜீத் விஷயத்துல ஒட்டுமொத்த கோடம்பாக்கமும் நெட்டு குத்தா நின்னு அடிக்கிற ஜால்ராவுக்கு அளவே இல்லை. அதில் லேட்டஸ்ட் காமெடி அஜீத் போட்ட பிரயாணி!
ஒரு விஷயத்தை பரப்புவதற்கு முன்பு இது சாத்தியமா என்பதை கூட யோசிக்காமல் செய்வதில் தமிழனுக்கு நிகர் அவனேதான். படப்பிடிப்பு குழுவினருக்கு அவரே தன் கையால் பிரியாணி செய்து போட்டார் என்று பாராட்டுகிறார்கள். சந்தோஷம். ஆனால் அறுசுவை அரசர் நடராஜன் கூட இந்த வேலையை செய்து முடிப்பதற்குள் தீய்ஞ்சு போன உப்புமா ஆகிவிடுவார் என்பதுதான் உண்மை. நிலைமை இப்படியிருக்க கிச்சனில் கிடந்து சிக்கன் போல பொறிய முடியுமா வியர்வையே படாத அஜீத்தால்? இந்த சின்ன யோசனை கூட இல்லாமல் ஏன் இப்படி போற்றித் தள்ளி புளியோதரை கிண்ட வேண்டும்? அதுவும் நமது மீடியா நண்பர்களும் சேர்ந்து கொண்டு!
தனது வீட்டு வேலைக்கார அம்மாவை உட்கார வைத்து, "தினம் தினம் நீங்க எங்களுக்கு சமைச்சு போடுறீங்க. இன்னைக்கு நான் உங்களுக்கு சமைச்சு போடுறேன்" என்று அவருக்கு பிரியாணி செய்து போட்டவர் அஜீத். இந்த செய்கையை நாமே பலமுறை எழுதி பாராட்டியும் இருக்கிறோம். மங்காத்தா யூனிட்டில் தினந்தோறும் பணியாற்றுகிறவர்களின் எண்ணிக்கை குறைந்தது 100 பேர். இவர்கள் அத்தனை பேருக்கும் ஒரு சூப்பர் ஹீரோ பிரியாணி செய்து போடுவது என்பது அவ்வளவு சுலபமானது அல்ல. அப்படி போட வேண்டிய அவசியமும் அவருக்கு இல்லை. (ஃபார்முலா ரேசில் முதலிடத்தில் வந்தாலும் அஜீத் இந்த வேலையை செய்யப் போவது இல்லை)
நமது விசாரணையில் கிடைத்த தகவல் இதுதான். அன்றைய பிரியாணி செலவை அஜீத்தே ஏற்றுக் கொண்டாராம். தனக்கு பிடித்த ஒரு மாஸ்டரிடம் ஆர்டர் கொடுத்து இதை செய்து தர சொல்லியிருக்கிறார்.
அதற்குள் இப்படி ஒரு செய்தியை கிளப்பிவிட்ட அன்பர்களுக்கு அஜீத் கொடுத்தது, பிரியாணி பொட்டலத்தை விட வெயிட்டாகவும் லெக் பீசை விட ருசியாகவும் இருந்திருக்குமோ என்னவோ?

November 12, 2010 03:33:19 PM IST
Abid, Glamsham Editorial
After a not so successful stint in Bollywood, Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandez is now all set to enter regional cinema via Tamil film MANKATHA. The actress has confirmed that she would be doing more regional films and says that she has no qualms in starring in South Indian movies as she feels that cinema is cinema, international, Hindi or Tamil, and she loves to act.
For her role in MANKATHA, Jacqueline will be required to speak Tamil and so the question that arises is whether she would be able to speak in Tamil. Jacqueline reveals that her father speaks Tamil and that it is quite similar to Sinhalese, the language spoken in Sri Lanka and so she would be able to do the film easily.
MANKATHA sees Jacqueline in a very special appearance and is a hugely anticipated multi star cast film starring superstars like Ajith and Nagarjuna.

Tamil actor Ajith is shooting his 50th film Mankatha in hotspots across the world
R S Prakash
Posted On Thursday, November 11, 2010 at 10:57:46 PM
The celebrations have already begun for Ajith’s 50th film.
Titled Mankatha, the cast and crew are currently in Bangkok for what they describe as a landmark movie for Thalai, as he is fondly called — and particularly his fans. Joining the party is Telugu actor Nagarjuna, who is said to be playing a key role in the flick.
Blame it on numerological concerns, Mankatha was earlier titled Mangatha. After having overcome some of those initial problems, director Venkat Prabhu and crew are all excited about the film.
Says the ace director, “I admit there were some problems initially, but all is well now and the schedules have started rolling in the right sequence and in the right direction. We as a team are very certain that the film in its final form will wow the audience and the added attraction will be the fact that this is our Thalai’s 50th outing!”
For Venkat, this is a different experience as he has earlier worked with relatively less-known actors and new-comers in films like Chennai- 6000028, Saroja and Goa. Besides roping in Ajith and Nagarjuna, the film also has Trisha, Manoj Manchu, Ganesh Venkataraman and new comer Mahaat.
So what is cooking? We asked Venkat, the son of director-cum-music-director Gangai Amaran.
“It is a commercial potboiler that is being made on the lines of an action adventure dealing with ‘strategic moves’ of a couple of people who would accept nothing less than a victory in a game of probability while destiny has a surprise in store for them, ” says Venkat, cheerfully.
Thankfully, Venkat has been given a complete go-ahead from his producer Dhayanidhi Azhagiri, the grandson of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Karunanidhi.
“I have told the director to go ahead and shoot the film exactly the way he conceived — regardless of the cost. All the top sequences will be canned abroad,” said Azhagiri.
Expectations have hit the sky for Thalai’s 50 movie, which will be shot around at least 10 top locations.
After Venkat’s film, Ajith will start shooting Billa 2, a sequel to Billa, one of his all-time hits.

With Mankatha creating excitement waves across the Tamil cinema fraternity( ) with the released teaser and rocking stills, fans of Actor Ajith Kumar are eagerly awaiting the release which is expected to be on 29th April 2011. As Thala's birthday May 1 falls on Sunday, release might be two days before his birthday.
First schedule of shooting was completed early this month. Intro song has been shot in Thailand and has come out more than expectations. Even Yuvan has expressed his joy over the intro song in Twitter.
Earlier, news came that the next schedule of Mankatha shooting will be held at Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad. But sources close to Mankatha unit denies that news. They also added up that the next schedule of Mankatha will start during the first week of December 2010 (Dec 3rd or 6th) in Namma Singara Chennai.
STARAJITH confirms that Tollywood Super hero Nagarjuna has been replaced with Action King Arjun due to the former's busy schedule. We at STARAJITH are sure this replacement will add on to the already piled up expectation of Mankatha. Also, actress Sneha has been approached to do a important role in Mankatha and she is yet to be confirmed.
Venkat Prabhu seems to be a busy man even off shoot . The Director is said to be busy monitoring progress of construction of sets of the Mumbai's Dharavi in Chennai. The shooting of the entire film is planned in India except few songs.

Mankatha shoot in Chennai
Ajith's 50th golden jubilee film, Venkat Prabhu directed Mankatha's second schedule is to start in a Chennai studio from today (Dec 6). A huge set has been put up and important scenes are likely to be canned during this schedule. Venkat Prabhu has roped in 'Action King' Arjun to play a pivotal role in the film, which was earlier to be done by Nagarjuna. Mankatha, a mult-starrer has now Ajith, Arjun, Ganesh Venkatram, Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Sneha, Vedhika, Manchu Manoj and Premji Amaran. The first schedule of the film took place last month in Bangkok. The title song of the film composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja "Vilayadu Mankatha" was shot there featuring Ajith , Lakshmi Rai and some foreigners. Mankatha produced by Dhyanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine is likely to be the big summer release on May 1, 2011 which also happens to be Ajith's birthday.

Venkat Prabhu's new interview on Mankatha !!!
More 3D, more fun
Venkat Prabhu is a wanted man. With Tamil star Ajith Kumar’s 50th film — Mankatha, in his kitty, the director is all set to give the actor a new face-lift. And with it, he has also upped his demand.
“Mankatha is simply a game of probability. It is an out-and-out action film that will keep you guessing right till the end. The film not only deals with friendship, love and hope, but also the darker side of life such as betrayal and loss. It is a fresh script and will definitely strike a chord with the audience,” he says.
It’s not just the younger lot on Venkat’s team who are in awe of Ajith, but the director himself is quite upbeat about the casting. “I’ve known Ajith from the time I worked with him in Ji. As a matter of fact, we’ve wanted to work together for a long time now. But, finally things worked out for Mankatha and I’m more than happy to be directing his 50th film,” he says cheerfully.
With several changes in the cast after launching the film in August, the director has finally settled down and started shooting extensively. “Initially, we approached Neetu Chandra for the female lead and Nagarjuna for the second lead. But since they had date issues, we’ve finally zeroed in on Trisha and Arjun Sarja for the respective roles.”
The film, which also stars Premgi Amaren, Vaibhav Reddy and Meenakshi among others, makes one wonder if all of them will have significant roles. “Oh yes, they definitely have. Though a film like Ocean’s Eleven had several actors, everyone had important roles. It is likewise with Mankatha,” he explains
. The action-cum-adventure flick will have its share of comedy, quirky one-liners and an item song! “The music by Yuvan Shankar Raja, will definitely be a crowd-puller,” he vouches.
But here’s what has got him even more excited. “I’m planning to work on a 3D film for kids. Since my last film Goa, originally meant for children, got an ‘A’ certificate, several people complained that kids couldn’t watch it. So, I’m hoping to do a complete kids entertainer after Mankatha,” he signs off.

AJITH FIGHTS, MANKATHA TEAM WATCHES
Mankatha and the crew can never go away from the spotlight. While we were just wondering what they are up to, here comes news about their whereabouts. Industry sources claim that the Mankatha team is very much in Chennai; but busy with shooting. Yes, the team is in action mode and are canning fight sequences in Binny Mills, Chennai.
It is also being told that the shooting will go on for a week and the director plans to wrap all important fight sequences during this time. It can be recalled that the shooting was delayed last week due to incessant rains in the city. Where the team are headed to after Binny Mills?

‘Thala’ at Binny Mills
Binny Mills at Perambur has of late become the preferred destination of Kollywood filmmakers. Since shooting is taking place non-stop there, the premises is being fondly called as Kodambakkam of north Chennai.
Currently, the shooting of Ajith’s 50th film ‘Mankatha’ is going on at Binny Mills and this has become an enough reason to make the destination a hot and happening place.
As soon as they came to know that their ‘Thala’ has come to the area, Ajith fans thronged Binny Mills to have a glimpse of their matinee idol. It is said a stunt sequence is at present being shot there and Ajith has been giving his best to it.

Mankatha is not Dropped - Venkat Prabhu
Published in Times of India dated on 18-12-2010
For all those who were upset about rumours that the shoot for Mankatha had been stalled, here's some good news.
Contrary to what a few media reports had claimed, work on Thala Ajith's 50th film is on in full swing. Rubbishing reports which had claimed that the film's shooting had been stalled due to financial constraints, the director of the film Venkat Prabhu clarifies, "I was really disturbed when I read those reports in a magazine, especially when the shoot for the film is going smoothly. We finished our Bangkok schedule and we are erecting a set in Chennai now, which looks like Dharavi in Mumbai. It's true that rain played spoilsport on one day and we had to cancel shoot. But that does not mean that we have financial constraints! When we have almost completed our talkie portions and the songs are ready, how can one spread rumours like these?"
The director also adds that Action King Arjun will replace Nagarjuna in this film for a pivotal role. "Nagarjuna could not juggle his dates and so we had to rope in Arjun for the role. It's an action subject with an ensemble cast comprising Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Vaibhav and Premgi to name a few. I am also introducing two new actors, both of whom have significant roles in the story. And the best part is that one of Mahakavi Bharathiar's great grandsons, Niranjan Bharathi, has penned lyrics for the album of Mankatha along with Vaali and my father Gangai Amaran. It's actually a great honour to have someone from that family on board," enthuses Venkat Prabhu.
Venkat Prabhu is also upbeat about the music of the album. "Yuvan Shankar has done a fabulous job in the film. I've also plans to include an item number for the film, for which I'll be roping in a big name. The audio launch is likely to be in March and the film is expected to hit the screens in May. Mankatha will be a special summer release," concludes the director.

Hats off to Thala for sporting such looks ... As far as the screenplay is good, the look will add a new dimension ...But the problem doubles if the screenpla is bad !

it looks like ajith is no longer youth hero. Even Rajni sir is more conscious abt his looks at his age, and wants to look youth in his movies and capture more youth audiences...
with this weight, i dono hw ajith is gona do high voltage actions( as vp said )
more & more disappointments from aegan days and, more to come.

Storyline which I came to know about is totally silly and boring. I don't know how it will look on screen as well. Hope it doesn't look as pathetic. Cannot take another disappointment at this stage.

Is Trisha Playing A Slum-Dweller In Mankatha?
Looks like Venkat Prabhu's Mankatha with Ajith is one of the hottest films to be discussed in the film circuit.
After the rumours that the film had been dropped due to financial troubles, the latest one doing the rounds is that Trisha plays a slum-dweller in the film! .
When TOI contacted Venkat Prabhu, he clarified, "Even I read that gossip! But no, Trisha is not playing a slum girl and she is also not learning Madras baashai for the film. She plays a Chennai girl, who is brought up in Mumbai."
That's one down

‘Mankatha’ Updates
IndiaGlitz [Saturday, January 29,
2011]
Here are the latest happenings
from ‘Mankatha’ front. Venkat
Prabhu has finished picturising
three songs for the film. Ajith
Intro Song that was shot in
Bangkok, A kuthu song involving
Ajith with Premji, Vaibhav and
others shot in Chennai and a
duet featuring Ajith and Trisha,
also shot in Chennai. With this
major development ‘Mankatha’
has completed 50 percent of its
talkie portions.
And an important action scene
was also completed. The
highlight of this stunt sequence
is that Ajith performed the
actions with a Body Mount
Camera weighing around 30kg
mounted on his body to capture
the close actions when he runs,
walks and turns.
It’s a known fact that Ajith had
lot of surgeries on his body and
the actor avoids taking risks
while shooting. But when Venkat
Prabhu came up with this unique
idea, Thala readily agreed.
Mankatha‘s Chennai portions will
get over by Monday and then the
unit will move to Mumbai for the
rest of the portions.
The thriller starring Ajith, Arjun,
Trisha, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai,Premji,
Vaibhav, Makath, Jayaprakash
and Subbu Panju is about
gambling mafia at work during
IPL cricket season.
Keep watching this space for
more updates on ‘Mankatha’.

Reports from Kollywood state that Mankatha is all about match-fixing. The film’s director Venkat Prabhu has dealt with the match-fixing and betting that is widely prevalent in the cricket world.
Sources close to the film unit say that severa...l heads in the cricket world will roll when Mankatha hits the screens.
Mankatha, which stars Ajith, Trisha, Arjun, Premji Amaren, Vaibhav and others in lead roles, is expected to release on May Day, coinciding with Ajith’s birthday (source: http://accesskollywood.com/kollywood...kathas-release)

What’s missing in Mankatha?
Feb 02, 2011
Home > More news
It is a trend in Kollywood for
mass heroes to have a song that
speaks highly of their stature or
achievements. Ajith has been
following this trend since his film
Dheena, which released in 2001,
with the song Thalapola Varuma.
After a decade of including such
songs in his films, the star has
requested Venkat Prabhu, the
director of Mankatha, not to go
in for such a song in the film, say
sources.
The talk in Kollywood is that - will
Venkat take note of Ajith’s
request and do away with it or
include such a song for
commercial viability.

Ajith poses stiff competition to SRK in that department! and now mankatha! the stills look syuper stylish, and ajith has a george clooney-type character..super! wishing mankatha team and all ajith fans huge success for the movie!

Mankatha trailer created by fans rock!
Take a look at the new Mankatha online trailer created by Ajith fans, which is making waves on the internet.
The trailer has been etched out of existing stills of Ajith and you can't believe that it is a fan work, as it looks technically slick.
The two minute trailer showcases Ajith and what the fans expectations are for the Venkat Prabhu directed Cloud Nine produced Mankatha.
The trailer has been tightly edited and has tag lines like- "Business is business until it is personal", "A war on survival", "when you change the rules , the game becomes deadly" etc.
The trailer has created the right buzz around the film.
It is a nice teaser to what to expect from Mankatha, Ajith's 50th golden jubilee film.
The curiosity factor around the film is sure to give it an earth shaking opening when it releases on May 1.

Thirumaran, Surya fan..Venkiraj..one who always posts in Tamil....I knw few others too like saurav, thala fan and Shewag fan... ...
I became a big fan of this Hub, coz generally the discussions are not biased unlike orkut communities. for instance Ajith and Vijay fans behave well here... .. And the dissection you guys do to a film after its release is awesome...."raavanan" is a best example..
I dont knw the right place to post this..but thought of sharing it with you guys..as I am a regular visitor to the hub since Last year(2010 IPL)..

I'm yet to find Mr Right: Trisha
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/e...#ixzz1DNkZIbX2
If one were to go by media gossip, Trisha is one actress who has been married the most number of times! A few days ago, a Telugu publication reported about her plans to get married to a business tycoon.
Clearing the air, the actress tells TOI, "How many times can these guys get me married? I get very upset when people publish such inaccurate reports. If I'm getting married, I will announce it to the world as I have nothing to hide. As of today, I'm yet to find Mr Right."
Tell her about the grapevine being abuzz about her seeing a Hyderabad-based business tycoon and investment banker and the actress immediately pooh-poohs it. "It's an example of somebody's fertile imagination running riot," she says dismissively.
According to industry experts, Trisha is still the hottest heroine in Tamil and Telugu films. She is considered by many as the big-budget survivor who has matured over the years to become an actress of substance. In fact, her performance in the Kamal Haasan-Madhavan starrer Manmadhan Ambu received critical acclaim. The actress was also nominated for this year's Filmfare awards for the best debutante for her role in Khatta Meeta.
However, the pick of the roles are coming her way. For instance, Savithri, strongly rumoured to be the Telugu avatar of Rain Man, has her playing a meaty role.
The actress, who has just completed a schedule of her Teen Maar (Love Aaj Kal's Telugu remake) with Pawan Kalyan in Mysore, is now all set to shoot with thala Ajith in Mumbai for Venkat Prabhu's Mankatha. Says Trisha, "I had a blast shooting with Ajith, Venkat Prabhu and rest of the Mankatha team in the previous schedules. The film is going to be a rollicking entertainer. I will be joining the team in Mumbai for the last schedule from February 26." Offers from Kollywood keep coming her way. "Tamil cinema is always my first love and I'd never miss the opportunity if I'm given a good script by a good director. I'm enjoying my work and have no plans for marriage in the near future," she signs off.

http://www.deccanchronicle.com/tablo...rey-shades-910Mankatha’s full of grey shades
Here’s a Kollywood film that’s based on cricket betting. Thala Ajith’s golden jubilee film Mankatha, which directed by Venkat Prabhu, has Trisha playing the daughter of an underworld don from Mumbai’s Dharavi slums, and Ajith’s love interest.
According to sources, the movie is about cricket betting during an IPL season. The interesting part is that all the actors, including Ajith and Action King Arjun, portray roles with negative shades.
Venkat Prabhu says, “Mankatha is about different people trying to make something happen and how everything changes when one particular factor comes into play. So there will be a lot of unexpected twists and turns. This is not a gangster flick. Though it’s a high-voltage action movie with darker shades, there is no violence involved.”
The director continues, “It does have a mature, lively romance, but there are no clichéd dream song sequences.”
He predicts that Trisha will be the surprise package. The movie’s ensemble cast includes Ajith, Trisha, Arjun, Lakshmi Rai, Vedhika, Vaibhav, Anjali, Premgi Amaran, Mahat, Ganesh Venkatram.
Producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri is confident that he can wrap up the film by mid-March and release it on May 1, which happens to be Ajith’s birthday.

Answering this, Venkat has said that the music launch and the film’s release will be announced very soon and fans need to wait patiently for it.
Regarding his next project, Venkat has said he would like to deal with one film at a time and right now Mankatha is his centre of attraction.

Item Number For Mangatha !
Remember the gorgeous girl who wooed and wowed with Akshay Kumar in the song 'Aila Re Aila' from Khatta Meetha?
She donned Dimple Kapadia's look from 'Main Maike Chali Jaaongi' and caught everybody's attention and fantasy. That was Kainaat Arora for you. Though the actress debuted in Bollywood with just an item number, there has been no looking back for her with some of the best offers coming her way. The young lass just finished shooting a song with South superstar Ajith Kumar for his 50 th film Mankatha.
Talking about the song Kainaat reveals, "The film is very special for Ajith as it's his 50 th film and I couldn't have asked for more than an exclusive dance number with the Tamil superstar."
Kainaat is highly excited about the song and is sure it will be a huge hit. She says, "The song is very much like my Hindi song Aila Re Aila and Munni Badnaam Hui. It has a bar setting set in old Mumbai and is very edgy. We shot it in Chennai and it was great fun working with Ajith and the entire Mankatha team."
Confident about impressing the Tamil audience with her latkas-jhatkas, Kainaat says, "Akshay Kumar has been lucky for me and now I did this song with Ajith Kumar. I guess 'Kumar' is my lucky charm. So I am sure this song too will get me recognition from the Tamil audience and film fraternity."
Interestingly, its not just item numbers that Kainaat can boast about. The actress is in final talks with a few big banners where she will exhibit more than just her dancing skills. "I feel fortunate that after working with Akshay in Khatta Meetha, people have noticed me and approached me with some irresistible offers. I can't divulge much right now but the projects offered are really big with A-league directors and actors and I shall spill the beans soon," says Kainaat with dreams in her eyes and 'light a zillion lamps' smile on her face.

Kainaat, who has been shooting with Ajith for four days, reveals that the star is a fitness freak and diet conscious. She adds that he prepares his meals in his caravan and transforms into a wonderful host when fellow cast and crew visit him by offering self-cooked food.

Ajith will be more romantic than Vaali - Venkat Prabhu
Actor Ajith was shooting in north Madras yesterday for his 50th film Mankatha with Venkat Prabhu. The unit will move to Mumbai next week to can a few important sequence. Venkat Prabhu is confident that the audience will see a new Ajith in the film. “This is Thala’s 50th film and I have a huge responsibility towards his fans. In this film, he dances to a kuthu number like he has never done before. He will also be at his romantic best and woo his girl even better than in Vaali. He’s also some got amazing comedy scenes,” he says. And what about punch dialogues? “There are none in this.

Andrea denies Mankatha's rumours
We wouldn't be wrong if we said that Mankatha is one of the most talked about films in Kollywood.
After several rumours that did the rounds, including how Trisha was playing a slum-dweller in the film, it's now all about Andrea. The latest buzz is that this pretty lass, who has sung for Venkat Prabhu's earlier film, Goa, is paired opposite Ajith. However, when contacted, Andrea rubbished the report and said that she was not doing the film and that it was Trisha who was playing the lead.

Ajith's salt & pepper look to go!
Ajith is having a salt and pepper George Clooney style Ocean 11 looks in Venkat Prabhu directed Mankatha.
It is truly an international style, as lot of men who turn 40 prefer this look which makes them age gracefully.
The Mankatha Ajith look is sure going to become a rage, once the film releases.
There has been news that Ajith is playing an old man, like one of his triple roles in Varalaaru.
However, sources close to Mankatha unit said: "He is playing a guy who is in his early 40's; hence Ajith sir himself suggested this look which will click in a big way.
Only for a few songs he is wearing wigs, otherwise the character has the salt & pepper look and is slightly on the plump side."
Meanwhile Ajith is starting his Billa-2 with Chakri Toleti in the first week of May. In that film he has a totally different look as he has to look like a youngster in the age group of 20 to 25.
A source revealed: For Billa-2, Ajith sir is going on a crash diet, as he has to reduce atleast 12 kilos and look youthful as per the storyline which is about the younger of David Billa, before he became the international don."

Mankatha has Bin Laden!
on March 9th, 2011
Share
By seeing the title you might get into your own conclusions that it might be the role of Ajith in a grey haired look, but if you think like that it’s totally a misconception.
Yes! The term ‘Va da…Bin Lada…’ referred in the title is the starting line of a song composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja. Krish and Suchitra have rendered their beautiful and soothing vocals for this outstanding number. It is a romantic song and was shot with Ajith and Trisha recently, which will surely stand as a highlighting factor of the film.
According to the sources close to the unit “Director Venkat Prabhu has wrapped up most of the shooting and is making all necessary arrangements to make sure that the film hits the screen on Thala’s birthday, May 1st. Kollywood’s big banner Cloud Nine Movies Dhayanidhi Alagiri is producing Mankatha.

Mankatha songs ready!
Actor Ajith's Mankatha which has been awaited with lot of expectations seems to be hitting the right note every passing day. Music director Yuvan Shankar Raja is said to have given nine completed tracks to director Venkat Prabhu. The director is extremely happy with Yuvan's work and is excited about it more than ever. Among the nine songs, six of them have been composed and three of them have already been recorded.
The director said that there will be an exclusive promo song, a Mankatha theme music and also one club mix. An elated Venkat Prabhu has gone on to tweet that Yuvan rocks and we cannot help but agree, given his latest hit numbers. This news has surely upped the expectation quotient of Mankatha starring Ajith, Trisha, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai, Premgi Amaran and Vaibav. We cant wait for the songs to be out!

Yuvan's Mankatha audio to rock
Yuvan Shankar Raja and director Venkat Prabhu have always dished out super hit music in films like Chennai-28, Saroja and Goa.
Now the duo is all set to create history with the music of Mankatha, Ajith's 50th film.
Both Yuvan and Venkat have been tweeting and continuously promoting Mankatha music.
Yuvan is said to have given nine completed tracks, which the director feels is going to be chartbusters.
Venkat Prabhu tweeted: "Six songs composed!!! Three songs recorded!!There will be a promo song!!! One club mix and a Mankatha theme music!! 9tracks!! U1 rocks!!"
All this promotion has made Mankatha music hot, and the buzz is that the music company which normally buys all big Yuvan labels has offered Rs One Crore for the music rights!

Ajith's Mankatha Postponed
Here is a breaking news regarding Thala Ajith’s 50th film. So far the team of Mankatha went on saying that the film’s release is scheduled on Ajith’s birthday i.e. May 1st, 2011. But the recent reports claim that the film has been rescheduled due to some reasons. Let’s hear that in director Venkat Prabhu’s words.
Venkat Prabhu has quoted this in a leading newspaper “We have decided to release the film in June as our schedule has been extended. As the film revovlves around cricket and mafia betting it contains lots of action sequences and for this stunts we are moving to Mumbai today (March 16). We will be back only in the seocng week of April and by that time we will be left with two more songs to picturize. So we decided to postpone”.
This can be taken as a clear indication from the team and as the IPL and elections are also nearing this would be the best option for the film to do good at the box office.

'Mankatha' music on May 1
Not ready to disappoint Ajith fans who would not be able to see their Thala on screen in 'Mankatha' as planned on May 1, director Venkat Prabhu and his team are working to release the film's audio on the birthday of the Ultimate Star.
Circles close to Venkat Prabhu told IndiaGlitz that the movie's music album, composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, will be released on May 1 at a grand function in Chennai. "The film will hit the screens within the next few weeks of the audio release," they said.
"A couple of crucial scenes and songs have to be shot. Venkat Prabhu is currently working round the clock on ‘Mankatha’. So the film would sure see the light of the day in a couple of months," they said, adding all the nine songs composed for 'Mankatha' by Yuvan would top the charts.
Produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine movies, 'Mankatha', Ajith 50th film, has Trisha, Arjun, Premji, Vaibhav, Lakshmi Rai and Anjali in lead roles.

Sony acquires Mangaatha audio for a record price
Sony Music has acquired the audio rights of Ajith Kumar's Mangaatha for a record price. The audio company is reportedly releasing it on Thala's birthday (May 1).
According to reports, the Sony Music has bagged it for Rs.1 crore. It faced a tough competition from other audio companies. In the recent times, the company has bagged other much-hyped movies like Engeyum Kadhal and 7 Aum Arivu.
Mangaatha has nine songs, which includes a theme song and one club-mix number. Yuvan Shankar has scored the music for which Vaali, Gangai Amaranand, renowned poet Subramanya Bharathi's grandson, Niranjan Bharathi have penned the lyrics.
The highlight of the album is that, for the first time, Yuvan Shankar Raja and Ilaiyaraaja have crooned a song together. However, Venkat Prabhu directorial film features Ajith Kumar, Trisha Krishnan and Arjun Sarja in the key roles and Lakshmi Rai, Anjali, Premji Amaren, Ganesh Venkatraman, Sona Heiden in supporting cast.

Published in Deccan Chronicle daily paper dated Apr 16, 2011
The unit of Mankatha, Ajith’s golden jubilee flick directed by Venkat Prabhu, has just completed a hectic schedule in Mumbai and returned to the city.
Sources say that a segment of the story takes place in Mumbai’s Dharavi slums and Trisha portrays Sanjana, the daughter of a mafia don from Dharavi, while Ajith plays Vinayak, sporting a salt-and-pepper hairstyle like George Clooney in Ocean’s 11.
Speaking to DC, Venkat Prabhu said, “Like I said earlier, Ajith and I decided to go in for a new styling in terms of his look and it was finally sir who suggested this George Clooney look. Incidentally it goes well with the character Vinayak in the movie. I am confident that his look will click in a very big way once the movie is released.”
He clears the misconception that it is a gangster film, “Mankatha is a traditional card game played in the state by betting sums of money. Similarly, here too, it’s about different people trying to do something and how everything changes at a particular point.” Though he was tightlipped about the theme, sources say that it is about cricket betting during the IPL season.
Meanwhile, Prabhu is simultaneously editing the portions canned so far and Yuvan Shankar Raja has also started his recording work. The director was ecstatic when his producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri was all praise for him after watching the rough cuts of Mankatha. “He is a great fan of Ajith. Soon after watching the clippings, he got so excited that he hugged me and remarked ‘Thala Thala Than’.”

let the celebrations begin. For the past couple of days, it has been a never-ending jubilation amongst ‘Thala’ fans and it’s all because of the 43secs teaser song. ‘Teaserae Ippadina, Appo Padam’ – Ah! It’s an awestricken scenario for everyone, even for the ones, who are following other actors.
Now we hear it from Venkat Prabhu and Yuvan Shankar Raja that the single track album of ‘Mankatha’, the same song ‘Vilayaadu Mankatha’ will be released next week. Sony BMG and the producers are spellbound over the big response for over trailer and have felt that it will keep the fans adhered to the film with same effects.

Attachment 260
Ajith Kumar’s official letter on dissolving fans club
I started my career with ‘Amaravathi’ and now my 50th film ‘Mankatha’ is all set for release. I would like to this opportunity to thank my co-stars, filmmakers, producers, technicians, journalists, fans and public and my family members. I have been over a deep thought making a decision upon an issue and now I felt like announcing it.
I have never used my fans for my personal interests and will never do such things at any point of time. If my films are good, they have the rights to appreciate it and on pars if not done well, they own the rights to criticize and advise me. At the same time, I am clear about the fact that all my fans are not the members of my fans club. I have never differentiated my fans on this ground.
The fans club members haven’t been affirmative towards my requests and there is no unity amongst them. It makes me so distressed to see that some of them have misused the fans club identity in political arenas.
I also believe and want the fans to be involved in social activities without being a heaviness for their family members. Social services need not be carried on only with the support of Fans Club, it’s enough if one has a good motive and thoughts.
Thereby, I would like to make it clear that from my birthday, i.e. from May 1, 2011 onwards I have decided to dissolve my Fans Club.
At this point of time, when the entire globe is going for an abrupt transition in terms of development and advancement, I don’t think ‘Fans Club’ is a real need for situation. An actor needn’t have any connection on any grounds apart from his profession. It’s more than enough if people feel it good, appreciate or criticize his performance and thusly making his career effective.
Live and Let me Live!!!!
Ajith Kumar

Is Ajith playing dual role in Mankatha?
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...dual-roles.jpgHere comes breaking news about Thala Ajith. It is heard that Thala Ajith will be featured in a dual role in his forthcoming film Mankatha. This looks like Thala is going to bring back the magic of Vaali on screens again.
Sources close to the team reveal that Ajith will star in a role which has shades of grey and the other one will be simple and delicate.
Mankatha is an action thriller which is revolves around a Mafia gang gambling during the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket season. Mankatha’s plot is quite appealing which boasts off hair-raising scenes in each and every frame.
Mankatha has an ensemble star cast, which includes Trisha, Arjun, Lakshmi Rai, Anjali, Premji, Ashwin, Vaibhav, Mahat and others.
Mankatha’s Tagline -Yellorum katavanga aana ivan roma ketavan.” (Every one is bad but he is very bad)!

Mankatha in Bangkok from May 10
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...ha-300x199.jpgWay2Online has reported earlier that Mankatha is on the heels of completion and is left with only one fight sequence and a song. Now we hear latest updates from the camp of Mankatha regarding the fight sequence.
This particular stunt scene will be canned in Bangkok from May 10th and only few members from the cast and crew are selected for this abroad schedule. The team is going to leave to Bangkok within a couple of days and the last schedule will be completed in one go. Director Venkat Prabhu though failed to release the film or the audio for Thala’s birthday but was able to make Thala’s fans happy by releasing a teaser song “Vilayadu Mankatha…” on the web.
Ajith plays the role of Vinayak Mahadevan which comes with grey shades while Arjun plays the role of a cop.
Music by Yuvan Shankar Raja is going to be one of the major highlights of Mankatha.

Ajith’s breathtaking stunts for Mankatha
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...ts-300x225.jpg
Almost every top of the day we get to hear some updates about Thala’s 50th film Mankatha. We have heard that the shooting of Mankatha is going to start from May 10th in Bangkok and latest update is that in this schedule Ajith is going to perform awe struck action sequences.
Director Venkat Prabhu and stunt choreographers are planning for an action sequence which runs for 10minutes of duration and will remind us Hollywood-styled stunts. Thala is going to lock horns with Action King Arjun in this stunning action sequence. Some of the foreign stunt members are likely to involve in this action scene. As said earlier only some of the crew members are flying to Bangkok by end of this week.
This action extravaganza is going start from May 10th and it’s the end of shooting.
A grand music launch is awaited by end of May.

Mankatha Official story
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...ne-300x209.jpgThe entire media is on toes on guessing the story of Mankatha, Thala Ajith’s 50th film. Director Venkat Prabhu has come out with a clarification on what Mankatha is all about.
Venkat Prabhu says “Yes, as guessed by the media the basic plot of Mankatha runs on gambling but the entire film doesn’t revolve on cricket betting. In fact the film deals about all sorts of gambling that are taking place”.
On talking about Arjun’s role he said “The sequences of Arjun are going to be the highlight of the film since he is playing a cop who is behind Ajith. In a particular scene Thala would be calling him Action King”.
Currently the unit of Mankatha is in Bangkok for shooting the pending scenes, a lengthy fight sequence and also a song.
The teaser trailer garnered high response, with the song being planned to be released as a single track during this week. The first theatrical trailer is going to be screened during the intermission time of Azhagiri Saamiyin Kudhirai film, which got released today.

Mankatha single CD Special edition
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...on-300x225.jpgMankatha’s audio will be unveiled very soon but meanwhile the filmmakers planned of releasing a single track of the film. So the time has come, the single track CD of Mankatha is releasing shortly.
Mankatha Single CD Special edition is attached with an amazing poster and also with Thala Ajith’s autograph. Is there anything else needed other than this, all the fans will be happy to see Thala’s latest poster along with his autograph, which is a very rare chance they get to have his autograph. In fact the talented director Venkat Prabhu is all set to introduce some innovation in launching his audio through the single track.
It was Ajith’s introduction song in the film which has been released today. The song is sure going to turn as ring tones and caller tunes among all the music lovers. The same intro song which was released as a teaser trailer has created waves on the net during last week.
That single song is sure to create an impact. The entire team of Mankatha is expecting that the intro song is going to rock. Let’s wait guys for our turn to rejoice.

Game of Mankatha Delayed Again
Buzzes and speculations are getting bigger day by day and the ‘Thala’ fans are let loose on their nerves with the teasers raising their expectations. Every day has a news for them with Venkat Prabhu constantly updating them with the stories. Before couple, news about the entire crew flying down to Bangkok for shooting an action sequence was published. But now it has been revealed that the crew is still busy here shooting portions in Binny Mills.
While plans are going onto release the single track preferably by next week, the sources mention that the complete album pack of 9 tracks will be launched only during first week of June.
Well what’s little disappointing for the fans is that the theatrical release may get postponed to last week of June.

Ajith’s Signs 5000 ‘Mankatha’ Posters, Literally!
Ultimate Star Ajith starrer ‘Mankatha’ seems to be the most expected movie so far this year. Recently, the movie’s trailer was launched during ‘Azhagar Samiyin Kudhirai’ in multiplexes and audience roared with joy watching their thala on big screen.
Sony BMG will be launching the audio of ‘Mankatha’ on May 20. The CD will have a single track ‘Vilayadu Mankatha…’ and is priced at Rs 49, and wait, that’s not that. The CDs come with a poster signed by thala Ajith itself! It’s no usual signature where a hero signs one poster and the rest are digitalized, Ajith wanted to please his fans and is using all his breaks in three days and is signing all the 5000 posters by himself! The poster has him donning a look never seen before and is a landscape one. It's a look that will prove the buzz that was making rounds recently about the movie. Now we’re sure fans will be thronging to music stores on May 20 not just for Yuvan's score but to get a glimpse of their thala and bag his autographed poster...
The song is sung by Yuvan Shankar Raja, Ranjith, Premji Amaran, Anita and Sucharitha, a new talent introduced by Yuvan. The song is set in Bangkok in a club – Club Hollywood, and was shot for four consecutive days.
Yuvan was also present during the shoot although he did not come on screen and dancers from Bombay and Bangkok danced for the peppy number. The disco club’s real speaker was utilized that made dancers shake their legs even off screen! We also hear that a lot of the crowd in the song are people who actually visited the club during the shoot, giving it a more ‘reality’ feel.
Paring with a song set in a club, Yuvan has had his lyrics in a mix of Tamil, Hindi and English. While Gangai Amaran penned the Tamil parts, Yuvan worked on the English and Sucharitha on the Hindi lines.
Well, looks like ‘Vilayadu Mankatha’ will make waves in DVD stands, especially with thala’s actually signed signatures! We’ll get back to you shortly with more updates on IndiaGlitz.com…

Venkat bets on Ajith
V Lakshmi
Thala Ajiths 50th film,Mankatha with director Venkat Prabhu,is one of the most talked-about films in Kollywood.And right from the story of the film to Ajiths character and look in it,every aspect of the film seems to be widely discussed by both the media and the audience.
When we asked Venkat Prabhu if Mankatha is about betting,he said,Yes,betting is an important element in the film.However,we havent concentrated only on betting during cricket matches.There are several other forms of betting that will find a prominent place in the film. He added,And Ive bet on Ajith to make a hit out of this film! The highlight of the film is that the second half takes place in just one day.Thats probably why Ajith loves the interval block and the second half. Venkat is all set to shoot the climax of the film near Hyderabad soon.I will finish Ajiths remaining portions first because he wants to start gymming.He has to lose weight for Billa 2 and look very young and dashing! he said.

If it is ‘salt & pepper’ look in ‘Mankatha’, the Thala is going for a young and energetic look in ‘Billa 2’, which will go on floors by the end of June or by the beginning of July this year.
“I am fast completing the shooting of Mankatha. Because Ajith has to hit the gym for Billa 2, for he has decided to reduce weight to get a fresh look,” says Venkat Prabhu, the director of Ajith’s 50th film.
Directed by Chakri Toleti of ‘Unnaipol Oruvan’ fame, ‘Billa 2’ will be a prequel to ‘Billa’, Ajith’s 2007 hit inspired by a blockbuster of the same title starring Superstar Rajinikanth in the lead role.
Says Ajith, “I am eagerly looking forward to do Billa 2. It is an energetic team and the script is so powerful and interesting as well. Both Mankatha and Billa 2 will be important movies in my career.”

Thala Ajith is always known for his bold attempts, stunts and more than anything else ‘the speed lover’ in him is admired by his fans internationally.
His forthcoming movie ‘Mankatha’ had required a scene with thala driving fast in a National Highway. Director Venkat Prabhu sent these remarkable videos to IndiaGlitz from the shooting spot itself.
To test the scene’s actual, Ajith with Venkat Prabhu behind him went on a drive and thala dreaded Venkat Prabhu with his speed for he drove at a shocking 180 kmph speed in the highway!
That’s not it. For the second test, Venkat Prabhu preferred not to go along with the Ultimate Star, obviously. And even more shockingly, even without wearing a helmet, thala drove for this second test drive at a shocking 220 kmph speed!
Look at the special video that we have gotten for you, our viewers. The video shows how Ajith, while coming back at the same speed during the second test drive, out beats the cameraman’s speed for he vanishes in a jiffy even before the camera pans!
Shocking isn’t it?
The test drives and the actual were shot in a National Highway in North, where he drove a 1000cc Honda bike. Thala has sure made his fans more than proud through this bold attempt.
Tell us what you feel about this awe-inspiring video that we @ IndiaGlitz have exclusively brought out for you…

மங்காத்தா பாடல்கள் ஏன் வரவில்லை இன்னும்?
பரபரப்பான காரணம்
மங்காத்தா படத்திற்காக 5000 போஸ்டர்களில் தனது கையால் 'சைன்' பண்ணிக் Mankathaகொண்டிருக்கிறார் அஜீத். அதுவும் இடைவிடாமல் மாங்கு மாங்கென்று! இப்படி ஏதாவது மேஜிக் வேலைகள் செய்துதான் படம் பற்றி பேச வைக்க வேண்டியிருக்கிறது. என்ன செய்வது?
ஒரு கையெழுத்து மட்டும் போடுங்க. ரப்பர் ஸ்டாம்ப் செய்து கொள்ளலாம் என்று வெங்கட் பிரபு சொல்லியும், விடுங்க. நானே போடுறேன் என்று கூறிவிட்டாராம் அஜீத். இதற்கிடையில் மே 1 ந் தேதி அவரது பிறந்த நாளில் ஒரு பாடலையாவது வெளியிட்டு விட வேண்டும் என்று போராடினார்களாம். வானம் படத்தில் சிம்பு பாடிய ஒரு பாடலை மட்டும் வெளியிட்டு வித்தியாசமாக ஒரு ஆடியோ ரிலீஸ் பங்ஷன் நடத்தினார்களே நினைவிருக்கிறதா, அதே மாதிரி!
ஆனால் கடைசிவரை அது கைகூடவே இல்லை. ஏன்? யுவனுக்கு போக வேண்டிய பே மெண்ட்டில் ஏதோ சிக்கல். பணம் வந்தால்தான் டிராக் என்று கூறிவிட்டாராம் யுவன். இவ்வளவுக்கு பிறகும் வீட்டில் உட்கார்ந்து ரெண்டு நாட்களாக கையெழுத்து போட்டுக் கொண்டிருக்கிறார் என்றால் அஜீத்... கிரேட்தான்!

Mankatha, the game is on
May 19, 2011
Home > More news
Venkat Prabhu reveals that shooting is proceeding briskly in Mankatha. They have already released a single that has received a good response. The director has plans to release the film by the end of June.
The film being a multistarrer, it has been a little difficult to coordinate dates and schedules with everyone. This has been the cause of the delay, Venkat Prabhu informs. But currently, the project is advancing rapidly with the date hassles satisfactorily sorted out.

OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
English Press Release
http://i56.tinypic.com/8xsgzn.jpg
“Vilayadu Mankatha” is going to be the youth anthem for the year 2011!!
Yuvan Shankar Raja is at his best for Ajith’s 50th film Mankatha!!!
This is my forth film with Yuvan, and I am pretty sure that the magic has been recreated. My father Gangai Amaren pens Vilayadu Mankatha, choreographed by Kalyan. The song was shot at a club in Bangkok, with two hundred and fifty extras and fifty dancers from Mumbai, Chennai and Bangkok. The album contains 9 tracks all together, which includes a re-mix, theme music and a promo song. We are very confident Mankatha will be the best album of this year.
Mankatha is in its final stage of shoot in Hyderabad, where we are shooting a massive action sequence. This action sequence will be the most talked about sequence in Tamil cinema. Ajith sir has taken lot of risks by doing the stunts by him, which is choreographed by Selva. The producers have spent lavishly for the sequence, which is captured by cinematographer Shakthi Saravanan. Art Director Videsh is erecting a very huge set in the highways for another action sequence between Ajith and Action King Arjun, says Venkat Prabhu. This is the first track I’ve composed for Mankatha. This is what we do, and we do it the best!! Hip hop u know we don’t stop!! Here comes the single ‘Vilayadu Mankatha’ enjoy!!! It is a great privilege to compose music for Ajith’s 50th film. Says the ace composer Yuvan Shankar Raja. I’m happy to be working with Yuvan once again! The song albums of our earlier films “Dheena” and “Billa” were very well received. Hoping that Mankatha’s album to lives unto its expectations. I have enjoyed every single day of filming Mankatha; Venkat Prabhu is a very sensible and dedicated director. He is definitely one of the finest directors that I have worked with. Producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri has been extremely supportive. This being my 50th film I take this opportunity to thank all my producers, directors, co-stars, music directors, technicians, distributors, exhibitors, pros, media, critics, the moviegoers, my fans, and my family for making this journey possible and nothing without the support of my genuine fans. Live and let live, love you all, Ajith Kumar. I’m very happy and proud to produce Ajith sir’s prestigious 50th film.
This is my 2nd direct production under my company, and the biggest project we have ever handled. I have a huge team working for me to make sure that the film is promoted in the best way possible. I have always been a fan of Ajith sir; he’s a fantastic person I have ever known. He has been a huge support in making this film. Yuvan as always has done a terrific job with the entire album. It will be a treat for movie lovers in all categories; I have always wanted to produce a film with Venkat, been a long wish of mine, and the wish was granted in a big way called “Mankatha” he’s the nicest guy I have ever known in this industry. The technicians and co- stars involved in the film have given their best for this film. I have seen how hard they have worked to deliver the best of their talents. In short ” Mankatha” is my dream!!!!!

Mankatha in July
http://static.sify.com/cms/image/le4ueNbaced.jpg
Ajith's eagerly awaited Mankatha, directed by Venkat Prabhu and produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine, will complete its shoot by May 31.
After that, Venkat plans to do some graphics and post production work which will take a month. As of now the producers are looking at a July second week release.
Mankatha is Ajith's 50th film and the star cast includes Arjun, Trisha, Mahat, Vaibhav Reddy, Lakshmi Rai, Andrea Jeremiah, Premji Amaren and Anjali. It has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja.
The film is said to revolve around a Mafia gang gambling during the cricket season. Ajith plays the kingpin behind the gambling, though there are rumours that he is a police officer in decoy. Arjun plays a CBI officer, while Trisha is a gangster's daughter.

முத்தமிட மறுத்த அஜீத்!
http://cinema.vikatan.com/images/art...es/10ajith.jpgநடிகர் அஜீத் தான் நடிக்கும் படங்களில் முத்தக்காட்சியில் நடிக்க மாட்டேன் என்பதை குறிக்கோளாக கொண்டு இருப்பவர்.
மங்காத்தா படத்தில் த்ரிஷாவுக்கு முத்தம் கொடுப்பது மாதிரி ஒரு காட்சியை எடுக்க நினைத்தாராம் வெங்கட்பிரபு. அதற்கு த்ரிஷாவும் சம்மதம் தெரிவித்து இருக்கிறார்.
ஆனால் அஜீத் முத்தக் காட்சியில் நான் நடிக்க மாட்டேன் என்று கூறிவிட்டாராம். இது வரை எனது படங்களில் வரும் முத்தக் காட்சிகள் அனைத்து ட்ரிக் ஷாட் தான். அதைப் போலவே இதிலும் பயன்படுத்தி கொள்ளுங்கள் என்று கூறிவிட்டாராம்.
தற்போது க்ளைமாக்ஸ் காட்சிகளை எடுத்து வருகிறது 'மங்காத்தா' படக்குழு. அதன் பிறகு முடிந்தவுடன் டப்பிங், கிராபிக்ஸ் என இதர பணிகளை முடித்து ஜுலையில் படத்தை வெளியிட இருக்கிறார்கள்.
அஜீத்திற்கு மங்காத்தா 50வது படம். நாயகி த்ரிஷாவிற்கு 40வது படமாம்.

நெருங்கி, நெருங்கி...ஏமாந்த திரிஷா!
http://thatstamil.oneindia.in/img/20...angatha300.jpg
உதடு வரை வந்த அஜீத் முத்தமிடாமல் விலகிச் சென்றதால் பெரும் ஏமாற்றமடைந்தாராம் திரிஷா.
இது நிஜத்தில் அல்ல, சினிமாவுக்கா. அஜீத்தும், திரிஷாவும் இணைந்து நடிக்கும் படம் மங்காத்தா. இது திரிஷாவுக்கு 40வது படம் என்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.
இப்படத்தின் ஒரே ஒரு பாடல் வெளியாகி ரசிகர்களை துள்ள வைத்து வருகிறது. அதேசமயம், படத்தில் இடம் பெறும் ஒரு ரொமான்ஸ் காட்சியும் ரசிகர்களை துடிக்க வைக்குமாம்.
காட்சிப்படி ஒரு சீனில் அஜீத்தும், திரிஷாவும் சற்றே நெருக்கமான முறையில் நடித்துள்ளனர். இதில் அஜீத், திரிஷாவுக்கு உதட்டில் பச்சக்கென ஒரு இச் தருவதாக முதலில் திட்டமிட்டிருந்தனர். இந்தக் காட்சிக்கு திரிஷாவும் ஓ.கே சொல்லியிருந்தார். அஜீத்தும் தயக்கத்திற்குப் பின்னர் சரி என்று கூறியிருந்தார்.
இதையடுத்து காட்சிக்குப் போனார்கள். அஜீத்தும் திட்டமிட்டபடி திரிஷாவின் உதடு வரை வந்தாராம். வந்தவர் உதட்டை டச் பண்ணாமல் அப்படி ஒரு யூ டர்ன் போட்டு விட்டு வந்த வழியே திரும்ப போய் விட்டாராம்.
இதை இயக்குநர், திரிஷா உள்பட யாரும் எதிர்பார்க்கவில்லை. ஆனால் அந்தக் காட்சிக்குத் தேவையான எபக்ட் கிடைத்து விட்டதாம். லிப் டூ லிப் கொடுப்பதில் அஜீத்துக்கு நிறைய தயக்கம் இருந்ததால்தான் இந்த அளவோடு நிறுத்திக் கொண்டு விட்டாராம் தல.
உதடு கிடைத்தால் குண்டக்க மண்டக்க விளையாட எத்தனையோ ஹீரோக்கள் காத்திருக்கும் நிலையில் படு டீசன்ட்டாக நடந்து கொண்ட அஜீத்தை பாராட்டலாம்தானே.
ஆனால் திரிஷாவுக்குத்தான் நிறைய ஏமாற்றமாம். அடடா, தலைக்கு வந்தது இப்படி தலைப்பாகையோடு போய் விட்டதே என்று லைட்டாக அப்செட் ஆகி விட்டாராம்.
விண்ணைத் தாண்டி வருவாயாவில் சிம்புவின் உதடுடன் முத்த மோதல் பூண்ட திரிஷாவுக்கு ஏமாற்றம் இருக்கத்தான் செய்யும்!

http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...th-300x199.jpg
On one side July is going to be a most celebrated month as two movies from two bigwigs of Kollywood are hitting the screens but on the other side its going to be a battle between the fans of both the stars.
The month July is gong to witness the much awaited movies of the year Suriya’s 7am Arivu and Ajith’s Mankatha.

Ajith wraps up 'Mankatha' shoot
IndiaGlitz [Tuesday, June 07, 2011
Here we have more news for all Ajith fans out there from the sets of 'Mankatha!' today happens to be the last official day if shooting for Ajith Kumar for 'Mankatha.' He did his last day of shoot from Hyderabad today. The film, as we have informed you many times now, is about a gambling taking place with its backdrop as the IPL matches.
The film has been shot extensively from Chennai, Mumbai (particularly Dharavi), Hydrabad, Bangkok, and Macau. 'Thala' who will be seen opposite Trisha in this film has worked really hard for his character, Vinayak Mahadevan. Ajith has also performed some dare-devil automobile stunts in the film racing against time, which will prove a crowd puller once the film hits theatres.
Ajith who has truly enjoyed each day of filming for 'Mankatha' is sure to miss this young and hardworking team as well as the sets, now that his dates are through. He had committed for a 90-day shooting schedule, but the actor has truly gone beyond just being a part of the film and become one with the project. This truly will be one project which will add yet another feather in thala's cap.
Be sure to visit us tomorrow because who have something really exclusive coming your way...

அஜீத் அறிக்கை விடுவாரா?
http://cinema.vikatan.com/images/art...es/10ajith.jpg
அஜீத் நடித்து வெளிவர இருக்கும் 50வது திரைப்படம் 'மங்காத்தா'. இப்படத்தின் இசை வெளியீடு ஜுலை மாதத்திலும் படம் ஆகஸ்ட் மாதத்திலும் வெளியிட இருக்கிறார்கள்.
இந்நிலையில் ஒரு மிகப்பெரிய கேள்வி தற்போது கோடம்பாக்கத்தை வலம் வர ஆரம்பித்து இருக்கிறது. அஜீத் தனது ரசிகர் மன்றத்தை கலைத்து விட்ட நிலையில் 'மங்காத்தா' படம் வெளியாக இருப்பதால், படத்திற்கு எதிர்பார்த்த கூட்டம் இருக்குமா என்ற தயக்கத்தில் விநியோகஸ்தர்களும், திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்களும் இருக்கிறார்களாம்.
அஜீத் நடித்து வெளிவந்த படங்கள் எப்போதுமே ஒப்பினங் கலெக்ஷன் என்பது பிரம்மாண்டமாக இருக்கும் என்பது திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்கள் கணக்கு. ஆனால் தற்போது ரசிகர் மன்றங்களை கலைத்து விட்டதால் அந்த கூட்டம் தற்போதும் அதுபோல இருக்குமா என்ற கலக்கத்தில் இருக்கிறார்களாம் திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்கள.
அதுமட்டுமல்ல, அஜீத் படம் ரிலீஸ் ஆகும் போது முதல் நான்கு ஷோவையாவது முழு பணம் கட்டி ரிசர்வ் செய்துவிடுவார்கள் அவரது ரசிகர்கள். அதற்கும் இப்போது உத்தரவாதமில்லையே என்பதுதான் தியேட்டர்காரர்களின் கவலை. தமிழ் சினிமாவில் இருக்கும் முக்கிய நாயகர்கள் தங்களது சம்பளத்தை உயர்த்துவதே, அவர்களுக்கு இருக்கும் ஒப்பனிங் கலெக்ஷன் தான். இன்றும் கோடிகளில் சம்பளம் வாங்கும் அஜீத் தங்களை பற்றி யோசிக்காமல் போய்விட்டார் என்று புலம்பி வருகிறார்கள்.
இவர்களது அச்சத்தை போக்க, ரசிகர்களுக்கு ஒரு அறிக்கை கொடுத்து நிறைவேற்றுவரா அஜீத் என எதிர்பார்ப்புடன் காத்திருக்கிறார்கள்.

August Attack- Thala v/s Thalapathy
http://static.sify.com/cms/image/lgjneojfiji.jpg
Tamil cinema is gearing up for a classic Vijay versus Ajith battle as their films, Velayudham and Mankatha respectively, are getting ready for an August release.
Velayudham director M Raja, has said in an interview that his film is slated for an August release. Mankatha producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri had recently, through a tweet, confirmed that his film would be released in August.
Dhananjayan of UTV and leading producer has tweeted-"They may release in the same month (August) but not same day."
It looks like there will be a two weeks gap between both the films.
As per industry sources it has also created an unnecessary tug of war between the fans of Ajith and Vijay. Remember recently the stars themselves had met and buried the hatchet.
On the trade front also it has created tension, as both the films are looking for buyers. The trade is abuzz on how to accommodate the two biggies.
This will have a bearing on the price factor and MG (Minimum Guarantee) being offered by the exhibitors. The buzz is that both the films are looking for a single party buyer to market the film worldwide.

எந்தப் படத்தின் தழுவலும் இல்லை : 'மங்காத்தா' வெங்கட் பிரபு
http://cinema.vikatan.com/images/art...es/14ajith.jpg
அஜீத் நடித்து வரும் 50வது படம் 'மங்காத்தா'. இப்படத்தில் அர்ஜுன், த்ரிஷா, லட்சுமிராய், பிரேம்ஜி என பலரும் நடித்து வருகிறார்கள். இப்படத்தை வெங்கட் பிரபு இயக்கி வருகிறார். தயாநிதி அழகிரி தனது க்ளைவுட் நைன் நிறுவனம் மூலம் தயாரித்து வருகிறார்.
'மங்காத்தா' படம் ஒரு வெளிநாட்டு படத்தின் தழுவல் என செய்திகள் பரவ ஆரம்பித்தன. இச்செய்தியை தயாரிப்பாளர் தயாநிதி அழகிரி மறுத்தார்.
தற்போது 'மங்காத்தா' படம் குறித்து இயக்குனர் வெங்கட் பிரபு தனது டிவிட்டர் இணையத்தில் கூறியுள்ளது " மங்காத்தா படம் எந்த படத்தின் ரீமேக்கும் அல்ல.
ஒவ்வொரு படமும் ஏதாவது ஒரு படத்தில் வரும் காட்சியையோ அல்லது கதையின் தாக்கத்தினாலோ தான் படைக்கிறோம். ஆனால் அதை நாம் எவ்வாறு படைக்கிறோம் என்பது தான் முக்கியம்.
நிஜ வாழ்க்கையின் கதாபாத்திரங்களை மையமாக கொண்டு உருவாக்கிய படம் 'சென்னை -28', நிறைய த்ரில்லர் படங்கள் பார்த்த தாக்கத்தினால் உருவான படம் 'சரோஜா', ரொமாண்டிக் காமெடி கதைகளின் தாக்கத்தில் உருவான படம் 'கோவா'. 'மங்காத்தா' படம் எதன் தாக்கத்தில் உருவானது என்பதை நீங்கள் தான் முடிவு செய்ய வேண்டும்
நடிகர் அஜீத்தின் படப்பிடிப்பு முடிந்துவிட்டது. எடிட்டிங் பணிகள் முடிந்தவுடன் தேவைப்பட்டால் அவரை வைத்து ஒரு நாள் படப்பிடிப்பு நடத்துவோம்.
ஜுலை மாதம் இறுதியில் மங்காத்தா படத்தின் இசை வெளியாக இருக்கிறது. ஆனால் தேதி இன்னும் முடிவாகவில்லை." என்று கூறியுள்ளார்.

Mankatha attracts Bollywood film makers
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...rs-300x208.jpgUndoubtedly Mankatha has hit the bull’s eye by topping the headlines almost every two days. Mankatha is the most awaited and most wanted project as it marks the 50th film of Ajith and more over the actor is looking forward for a hit as his last release Asal is a disaster at the box office.
Mankatha shoot has been completed and the currently the team is busy with the post productions works of the film. The trend of remaking Tamil films in Hindi has turned as the latest style and Mankatha too joins the list. Even before its release some Bollywood producers are eyeing ‘Mankatha,’ to remake it in to Hindi. But the film’s director has not yet confirmed anything regarding the Hindi remake. Some close sources to the team have confirmed this and Venkat Prabhu seems to be taking some time to decide on the Hindi-speaking crowd.
In fact the director first wants to release the film for Tamil audiences and then will be thinking of the remake. Mankatha is scheduled for its release in August and the audio is expected to release in mid July.

மங்காத்தா - புதிய சர்ச்சை
வெங்கட்பிரபுவின் சரோஜா படத்துக்கும் பேபல் படத்துக்கும் எந்த சம்பந்தமும் இல்லை. என்றாலும் பேபல் படத்தின் ஸ்கி**ரீன்ப்ளேயின் பாதிப்பிலேயே சரோஜா திரைக்கதையை அமைத்ததாக படப்பிடிப்புக்கு கிளம்பும் முன்பே மீடியாவிடம் தெ*ரிவித்தார். அப்படிப்பட்டவ*ரின் மங்காத்தா படம் இந்திப் படத்தின் தழுவல் என்று புதிய பூதத்தை கிளப்பிவிட்டிருக்கிறார்கள் சிலர்.
இந்தியில் இம்ரான் ஹஸ்மி நடித்த ஜான்னெட் படத்தின் கதை மேட்ச் பிக்சிங்கை மையப்படுத்தியது. மங்காத்தாவின் கதையும் மேட்ச் பிக்சிங்கை மையப்படுத்தியதே. இதன் காரணமாகவே மங்காத்தா இந்திப் படத்தின் தழுவல் என்று பேசி வருகிறார்கள் சிலர்.
ஆனால் இதனை படத்தின் தயா*ரிப்பாளர் தயாநிதி அழகி*ரி மறுத்துள்ளார். இரண்டு படங்களுக்கும் எந்த சம்பந்தமும் இல்லை என்று கூறியிருப்பவர், படம் வெளிவந்தால் ரசிகர்களுக்கே இது தெ*ரிந்துவிடும் என்று சர்ச்சைக்கு முற்றுப் புள்ளி வைத்துள்ளார்.

Mankatha delayed?
http://static.sify.com/cms/image/lbvumoaajfa.jpg
Every day there is some news on Ajith`s Venkat Prabhu directed Mankatha.
The Cloud Nine produced film was supposed to be completed in the last week of May. However, there still is some news of the shooting going on in Hyderabad.
Meanwhile, Yuvan Shankar Raja the music director of the film has said that the songs will be recorded from Thursday (June 16). A single track from the film, "Vilayadu Mankatha" was released a few days ago.
So now it looks like more songs have to be recorded and then shot, which means it, will take more time. The audio launch of the film will be delayed along with the release.
Earlier it was said Mankatha will release in August, now it looks like it will be further delayed.

ஒரே நாளில் விஜய் - அஜீத் பட ரிலீஸ் ?
http://cinema.vikatan.com/images/art...8mankathaa.jpg
அஜீத் நடித்து வரும் 50வது படம் 'மங்காத்தா'. இப்படத்தை அஜீத்தின் பிறந்தநாள் வெளியீடு என்று ஆரம்பிக்கப்பட்டு, தற்போது ஆகஸ்ட் 15 வெளியிட முனைப்புடன் பணியாற்றி வருகிறார்கள்.
விஜய் நடித்து வரும் 52வது படம் 'வேலாயுதம்'. விஜய், ஜெயம் ராஜா கூட்டணியில் உருவாகி இருக்கும் பிரம்மாண்ட திரைப்படம் என்பதால் இப்படத்திற்கு பெரும் எதிர்ப்பார்ப்பு இருக்கிறது. இப்படத்தையும் ஆகஸ்ட் 15 அன்று வெளியிட பணியாற்றி வருகிறார்களாம்.
அஜீத், விஜய் இருவரின் படங்களுமே ஒரே தினத்தில் வெளிவந்தால் விநியோகஸ்தர்களுக்கு கொண்டாட்டம் தான் ஆனால் மங்காத்தா, வேலாயுதம் இரண்டுமே பெரிய பட்ஜெட் படங்கள் என்பதால் இரண்டு படங்கள் ஒரே தினத்தில் வெளியாக வாய்ப்பில்லை என்று கூறுகிறார்கள் கோடம்பாக்கத்தில்.
இது குறித்து வேலாயுதம் படக்குழுவினரிடம் விசாரித்த போது " வேலாயுதம் படத்தின் இசை வெளியீடு ஜுலை இரண்டாம் வாரத்தில் வெளியாகலாம். இப்படத்தில் எல்லா பாடல்களும் விஜய்க்கு பிடித்த மாதிரி அமைந்து உள்ளது.
விஜய்யும் இசை வெளீயிட்டு விழாவை ஆர்வத்தோடு எதிர் நோக்கியுள்ளார். ஆகஸ்ட் 15ம் தேதி இப்படம் வெளிவருவதில் எந்த சந்தேகமும் இல்லை.
'மங்காத்தா' படமும் அதே தினத்தில் வாய்ப்பில்லை. விஜய், அஜீத் இரண்டு பேருமே நெருங்கிய நண்பர்கள் என்பதால் இருவருமே பேசி வைத்து 'மங்காத்தா' படத்தை வெளியிடுவதை தள்ளிப் போடலாம். வேலாயுதம் தள்ளி போக வாய்ப்பு இல்லை" என்று நம்பிக்கையுடன் கூறுகிறார்கள்.
எப்படியோ இரண்டு படங்களுமே அவர்களது ரசிகர்களுக்கு விருந்தாக அமைந்தால் சரிதான்!

'மங்காத்தா'வின் ஹைலைட்ஸ் இதோ உங்களுக்காக: கோலிவுட்டில் இப்போது மோஸ்ட் வான்டட் லிஸ்ட்டில் இருக்கும் படம் 'மங்காத்தா'. சில ஆண்டுகளாகவே சீரியஸ் தொனி படங்களில் நடித்து வரும் அஜித், வேண்டி விரும்பி வெங்கட் பிரபுவின் காமெடி ட்ரீட்மெண்ட் திரைக்கதையைத் தேர்ந்தெடுத்து நடித்துக் கொண்டிருக்கிறார். தல ஹீரோ, வாலு டைரக்டர் என்ற வித்தியாச காம்பினேஷன் நிச்சயம் அஜித் ரசிகர்களை உற்சாகமூட்டும். 'எல்லோரும் கெட்டவன்னா நான் ரொம்ப கெட்டவன்' இதுதான் படத்தில் அஜித்துக்கான பஞ்ச் லைன். ரஜினியின் ஹிட்டான 'ராமன் ஆண்டாலும் ராவணன் ஆண்டாலும் எனக்கொரு கவலை இல்லை' பாடலின் சில வரிகள் ரீ-மிக்ஸில் துவங்குகிறது. 'ஒரு அம்பானி பரம்பரை... அஞ்சாவது தலைமுறை.. ஆனந்தம் ஒரு முறைதான்'! என்று அஜித் பாணிக்கு மாறுகிறது பாடல். படத்தில் அஜித்தின் கேரக்டர் பெயர் வெங்கட் பிரபுவுக்கே தெரியாததாக இருந்ததாம். 'என்ன பெயர் வைக்கப் போறே'ன்னு அஜித் கேட்டுக் கொண்டே இருந்தாராம், இப்போது கேரக்டருக்கு பெயர் வைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. ஆனால் அது மட்டும் சஸ்பென்ஸ்.

'மங்காத்தா' எப்போ தான் ரீலீஸ் ?! : ரசிகர்கள் ஆவல்
http://cinema.vikatan.com/images/art...es/20ajith.jpg
அஜீத்தின் பிறந்த நாளன்று 'மங்காத்தா' படம் வெளியாகும் என்று பூஜை போடப்பட்ட அன்றே கூறி படத்தை தொடங்கினார் வெங்கட் பிரபு.
வெங்கட்பிரபு தனது பேஸ்ஃபுக் மற்றும் டிவிட்டர் இணையத்தில் 'மங்காத்தா' குறித்து பல்வேறு தகவல்களை கூறி வந்தார். அவரது பேஸ்ஃபுக் இணையத்தில் அஜீத்தின் ரசிகர்கள் எப்போது இசை வெளியீடு? எப்போது படம் வெளியீடு என்று கேட்டு வந்தாலும் படத்தின் இசை மற்றும் பட வெளியீடு தேதி எதுவும் கூறவில்லை.
இந்நிலையில் இன்று காலை 'மங்காத்தா' படம் குறித்து வெங்கட்பிரபு தனது டிவிட்டர் இணையத்தில் கூறியிருப்பது " மங்காத்தா படம் ஒரு ஆக்ஷன் த்ரில்லர் கதையாகும். ஆனால் அக்கதையிலும் சிறு சிறு காமெடி சீன்கள் இருக்கும். ஆனால் படம் கண்டிப்பாக வெகு சீரியஸான த்ரில்லர் படமாகும்.
அஜீத் இப்படத்தில் வித்தியசமாக இருப்பார். படத்தின் இரண்டரை மணி நேரமும் பரபரவென்று இருக்கும்.. இது இதுவரை வந்த 'தல' படங்களை விட இது வித்யாசமான படமாக இருக்கும்.. தயாராக் இருங்கள் ! " என்று கூறி இருக்கிறார்.
முதலில் ஆகஸ்ட் 15ம் தேதி வெளியீட பணிகள் நடைபெற்று வருகின்றன என்று கூறி வந்தவர் இன்று, "ஆகஸ்ட் 12 அல்லது 19 'மங்காத்தா' ஆட்டம் துவங்கும் ' என கூறி இருக்கிறார்.
'மங்காத்தா' பாடல் மற்றும் படம் வெளியாகும் நாள் எது என்று அஜீத் ரசிகர்கள் ஆவலோடு காத்துக் கொண்டிருக்கிறார்கள்.

Ajith talks about his role in Mankatha
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...ha-300x200.jpg
From the time the shooting of Mankatha started there is lot of excitement and eagerness among Thala’s fans to know what character he plays in Mankatha but the team has maintained a complete secrecy about his character. Ajith knowing this has revealed the tit bits of his role in Mankatha in an interview to a popular daily.
Ajith said “There are five bad men in Mankatha and I play the nastiest among them. It is neither a hero nor a villain character I played in Mankatha. Venkat Prabhu is one of the best directors I have worked so far and he has extracted the correct output from me. The film has shaped up very well as each and every member of the cast and crew was supportive and dedicated”.
Speaking about the music Ajith added “Yuvan has given many best songs for my films earlier like Dheena and Billa. All the songs of Mankatha have come out very well and they got the potential to turn as chartbusters. I am also eagerly waiting for the audio release along with my fans”.

Yuvan Shankar Raja Explains Mankatha Delay
http://600024.com/files/2011/07/yuvan.jpg
Mankatha’s audio should have released some couple of days ago. The audience and fans of Ajith keep getting disappointed. After the single track release of Vilayadu Mankatha, everyone had wondered when the audio would release.
The release date of the whole album was supposed to be day before yesterday but then no announcements were made by the crew. The audio launch too did not happen. Now, Yuvan Shankar Raja has come out in the open explaining why the audio of Mankatha did not release yet.
He said that the crew did not like one of the songs tuned by him. So, he would have to rework on the song and compose a new tune for the song. He has to start composing and recording the song once again.
Yuvan Shankar Raja says that composing and recording a song again will take a lot of time now. Since it is an Ajith film, he would not hesitate to record the songs again. If he completes the album soon, the audio of Mankatha will release by August 2011.

FIR on 'Mankatha' music
Here it comes, for all the 'Mankatha' fans out there, the first information report about the music album of 'Mankatha!' Apart from the popular single 'Vilayadu Mankatha...' that released to a wonderful response from the public there are five more music tracks which will release in the near future.
Yuvan has given his fans a beautiful m�lange of techno, melody, a couple of duets and a mass song which is sure to rip the music charts post the album�s release. There is a duet,that has been sung by S.P.B. Charan and Bhavatharini, which is simple yet melodious. Then there is a funky techno duet by Krish and Suchitra which is sure to ring out loud in parties. This song will be a present day version of the original song 'Sorgame yendralum...'
Mano, Premji, Haricharan, Tippu and Naveen have come together to belt out a mass song which goes like 'Machi open the bottle...' This is sure to be a hit among the youth circles for its mass appeal and youthfulness. There is yet another duet by Madhushree and Yuvan which many feel will be the best pick of the album. By the way it sounds, this might end up being the pick of young girls reveal insiders!
There is one more song which has been crooned by Karthick, Vijay Yesudas and Anusha Durai Dayanidhi. Well this song introduces 'Mankatha' producer Dayanidhi Alagiri's wife Anusha debuting as a singer with this song! Apart from these songs there is the gangster hip-hop theme music which fades in and out every now and then throughout the film; and there is also the remix version of the 'Vilayadu Mankatha...' which will also become available with this pack.
It is noteworthy that Premji Amaran did the orchestration for 'Vilayadu Mankatha - remix' and 'Machi open the bottle...'
We will get back with more updates on this in the coming days. Keep watching this space for more!

Kerala distributors announce Mankatha & Velayudham release!

Divya Pictures in Kozhikode are taking booking from theatres in Kerala for Ajith's Mankatha which according to them is slated for August 19 release.
The theatres are showing great interest, as they are looking for movie content three weeks before Onam.
Meanwhile Shibu of Thameens, Kerala's leading distributor of Tamil films has clearly told the trade that Velayudham will release on August 31, Ramzan day in nearly 100 screens in Kerala.
Both the Ajith and Vijay starrer distribution rights for Kerala have been sold for high prices.

Mankatha latest pop-up!
http://way2online.com/wp-content/upl...7/Mankatha.jpg
Thala’s most talked about film till date Mankatha comes up with more info your way. According to the close sources, Mankatha is a fast-paced story with a stiff script.
Thala plays the role of a stylish and urbane thief who plans his moves in a fail-safe way. Arjun plays the role of a cop who unravels any case which he tackles. He once gets a chance to unravel the plan chalked out by Ajith and the situation gets serious. The chase starts between Ajith and Arjun with many twists and twirls which forms an interesting climax. One of the highlight of the film is the interval bang. Just ten minutes before the interval the episode is shot in a mind blowing way where it will be remembered for many years.
Well with all these interesting and outstanding aspects Mankatha surely deserves a pat to from the audience.

மங்காத்தா படத்திற்கு சிக்கல்!
http://www.tamilcnn.com/upload-files...a/mankatha.png
மிகுந்த எதிர்பார்ப்பை ஏற்படுத்தியிருக்கும் அஜீத்தின் 50வது படமான "மங்காத்தா" படத்தை வாங்குவதற்கு விநியோகஸ்தர்களும், தியேட்டர் அதிபர்களும் தயங்கி வருகின்றனர். இதனால் மங்காத்தா படத்திற்கு புதிய சிக்கல் உருவாகியுள்ளது. க்ளவுடு நைன் மூவிஸ் சார்பில், துரை தயாநிதி அழகிரி தயாரிப்பில், வெங்கட் பிரபு இயக்கத்தில், அஜீத், அர்ஜூன், த்ரிஷா, லட்சுமி ராய், அஞ்சலி, வைபவ், பிரேம்ஜி அமரன் என்று ஒரு பெரிய நட்சத்திர பட்டாளமே நடித்திருக்கும் படம் "மங்காத்தா".
இதுவரை அஜீத்தை பார்த்திராத வித்யாசமான கேரக்டருடனும், வித்யாசமான கதைகளத்துடன் உருவாகி இருக்கும் இப்படம், மிகுந்த எதிர்பார்ப்பை ஏற்படுத்தியிருக்கிறது.
மேலும் அஜீத்திற்கு இது 50வது படமும் கூட. இதனால் அவரது ரசிகர்கள் மத்தியில் மிகுந்த உற்சாகமும், எதிர்பார்ப்பும் இருக்கிறது.
ஆகஸ்ட் மாதம் மங்காத்தா படம் ரிலீஸ் செய்யப்பட உள்ளது என்று அறிவிக்கப்பட்டு உள்ள நிலையில், மங்காத்தா படத்தை ரிலீஸ் செய்வதில் சிக்கல் ஏற்பட்டுள்ளது.
படத்தின் சூட்டிங் *எல்லாம் முடிந்து ரிலீஸ் செய்வதற்கான வேலை நடந்து வருகிறது. ஆந்திரா, கேரளா உள்ளிட்ட மாநிலங்களில் நல்ல விலைக்கு இப்படம் விற்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.
ஆனால் தமிழகத்தில் மட்டும் இப்படத்தை வாங்க இன்னும் யாரும் முன்வரவில்லை. இதற்கு காரணம், இப்படத்தினை தயாரித்து இருக்கும் துரை தயாநிதியின் தயாரி்ப்பு தான். இவர் மத்திய அமைச்சர் அழகிரியின் மகன் ஆவார்.
விநியோகஸ்தர்கள், தியேட்டர் உரிமையாளர்கள் என அனைவருக்குமே நம்பிக்கை தரும் வகையில் இப்படம் அமைந்திருந்தாலும், தமிழகத்தில் ஆட்சி மாற்றம் ஏற்பட்டு உள்ள நிலையில், தயாநிதி அழகிரி பேனரில் படத்தை வாங்குவதற்கும், அதனை ரிலீஸ் செய்வதற்கும் விநியோகஸ்தர்களும், தியேட்டர் அதிபர்களும் தயங்கி வருவதாக கூறப்படுகிறது.
இதனால் என்ன செய்வது என்று தெரியாமல் மங்காத்தா படக்குழு முழித்து கொண்டு இருக்கிறது.
இது ஒருபுறம் இருக்க, மற்றொரு புறம் அஜீத்தே தனது சொந்தப் பொறுப்பில் இந்த படத்தை வெளியிட வேண்டும் என்றும், ஒரு முறை முதல்வர் ஜெயலலிதாவை போய் பார்த்து விட்டு வர* வேண்டும் என்றும் பலரும் கோரிக்கை விடுத்து வருகின்றனர்.
ஆனால் அஜீத்தோ, நான் அப்படி போய் பார்த்தால் அது சுயநலத்துக்காக செய்த மாதிரி ஆகிவிடும். படத்தை தைரியமாக வெளியிடுங்கள், ஒன்றும் ஆகாது என்று கூறி வருகிறாராம்.

Trisha Exclusive Interview About Mankatha to Chennai Times
This News Was Published at Times of India dated on 30-7-2011
Mankatha is ready for release and she’s shooting non-stop for the Telugu version of Bodyguard, but actress Trisha has more than just films to contend with. Rumours keep surfacing about her marriage, lack of new projects and fading popularity. Currently shooting in Hyderabad, Trisha talks to CT and sets the record straight.
• How was it working with Ajith?
This is my third film with Ajith; his combination with Venkat in Mankatha is great. Mankatha’s a boys’ film completely, but I have got a small but sweet role. I just wanted to work with Venkat because of the way he makes films. I hope people accept it because it’s made very stylishly.
• Are you playing a glam doll in the film?
Not really. It’s a nice, innocent role. It’s a bit of a love track between me and Ajith. I can’t say too much but I play an important role where Ajith is concerned.

‘மங்காத்தா’வில் ரஜினியின் ‘பல்லேலக்கா’ பாடல்!
http://tamilcnn.com/upload-files/aug...h_mankatha.jpg
அஜித் குமார் நடிக்கும் 50-வது படமான ‘மங்காத்தா’வின் பாடல் வெளியீடு, வரும் ஆகஸ்ட் 10 அன்று நடைபெற இருக்கிறது. அதற்கு முன்னதாக இப்படத்தின் பாடல்கள் குறித்த தகவல்களை இயக்குனர் தரப்பு கசியவிட்டு வருகிறது. அப்படி வந்த தகவலில் ஒன்றுதான் சிவாஜி படத்தில் இடம்பெறும் ‘பல்லேலக்கா’ பாடல் இப்படத்தில் இடம்பெற்றிருக்கிறதாம்.
இதுகுறித்து இப்படத்தின் இயக்குனரான வெங்கட் பிரபுவிடம் கேட்டதற்கு; “ஆமாம், மங்காத்தாவில் பல்லேலக்கா படல் இடம்பெறுகிறது. ஆனால் நீங்கள் நினைப்பது போல் ரஜினியின் பாடலாக அல்ல. இப்படத்தில் வரும் பாடலின் முதல் வரி பல்லேலக்கா என்று துவங்கும் ஆனால், அதன் பிறகு வரும் வரிகளும் சரி, அதற்கு இசைமைத்துள்ள யுவனும் சரி, அனைத்தையும் வித்தியாசமாக கொடுத்து அசத்தியிருக்கிறார்கள். இப்பாடல் நிச்சயம் ரசிகர்களைக் கவரும்” என்றார்.
இதில் சுவாரசியம் என்னவென்றால் இப்பாடலை விஜய் யேசுதாஸும், இப்படத்தின் தயாரிப்பாளரான தயாநிதி அழகிரியின் மனைவி அனுஷாவும் இணைந்து பாடியிருக்கிறார்களாம்.

Story Behind 'Mankatha' Songs
Ajith's 50th offering in Tamil cinema - 'Mankatha' is much-expected by those at the film industry and fans eagerly, due to reasons known. Fans have acted journalists and posed innumerable questions to the cast of 'Mankatha' who are there in networking sites to know the details of the audio launch and the release date of the film.
And finally, as Yuvan says in this interview, the wait is indeed over for 'Mankatha', as the tracks will hit DVD stands tomorrow!
IG caught up with director Venkat Prabhu and music composer Yuvan Shankar Raja, and no we didn't interview them, watch as Venkat quizzes Yuvan on each song and the latter gives a report on each of the track. The film will see an audio launch on August 10

Nanbane - never heard anything like this from Tamil films, wow what a smashing prelude. This song didn't really require a bass line but nevertheless it flows. It's driving me insane. The bass and the choral backdrop of this song make me want to go on a long drive some where in the hilly countryside during sunset.

now the fast paced theme sounds good along with the video..
overall.. average trailer, if u r not a fan(atic)...
Ajith looks fat in police dress.. best look is in white blazer.. (when he says 500 crores)
my guess on how screenplay would go: it may not be a roller coaster action ride.. in the name of comedy there will be few mokkais.. & songs will be speed breakers.. i hope Ajith takes care to overcome these -ves..
spoilsport / beware of : premG amaran

Mankatha audio does whopping business!
The audio launch for Ajith's highly awaited film, Mankatha took place only yesterday but already it is doing stupendous business as the album is selling like hot cakes. Fans have been booking their Cds in advance and so the sales figures have gone right through the roof. Ajith's sheer star power has never been more evident and industry pundits are already saying that such a response from the fans is usually seen only for Rajini films.
The marketing for Mankatha seems to have been very effective especially the concept of releasing a single months before the actual audio launch. This move whetted the appetite of the fans and sent them into a frenzy of excited anticipation. Yuvan Shankar Raja has his own legion of fans since he has become something of a youth icon and the Ajith - Yuvan combo has turned out to be a winning one.

Record Breaking Sales Of Mankatha Film Album
Thala Ajith fans across Tamilnadu are so thrilled with the music launch of the much awaited blockbuster ‘Mankatha’ that they have collectively decided to kill piracy! Sony Music along with Could Nine premiered the songs of the movie from 10 am onwards on August 10 on Chennai’s leading radio station. The premiere had over 7 lakh listeners tuned in across Chennai, Coimbatore and Madurai, a never before phenomenon.
Additionally, Sony Music had a record breaking pre booking of 60% for the movie. Being superstar Ajith’s 50th movie, the exponentially number of pre bookings that took place was something that was totally unexpected by Sony Music. Commenting on the successful launch of the audio, Ashok Parwani, Associate Director Sony Music India South said, “We are overwhelmed with the response that we have received and we would like to thank all the fans for their encouragement and support. We hope we give all our customers great music to look forward to through the year”
Sony Music also leveraged its digital delivery infrastructure to ensure that all music lovers can access the Mankatha songs legitimately. Sony Music is also leveraging its partnership with mobile operators to ensure that songs are available to the music lovers and fans as callberback ringtones and through other streaming avenues on the mobile platform.
The music rights acquisition of Mankatha is part of Sony Music’s overall strategy to become a dominant player in the Tamil music industry. Sony Music launched its first Tamil catalogue in 2008 and within the last three years has amassed a leadership position. As part of its growth plans, it will focus on high-revenue big-banner acquisitions in the market.

Promising trailer.

From: HonestRaj on 11th August 2011 10:38 PM [Full View]
listened to all the songs.. continuously for past 2 days..
my pick..
1. Mankatha remix
2. Mankatha theme
3. machi open the bottle & ballelakka ... <with the help of google images saw how Anusha dhayanidhi looks like
>
4. mankatha single
5. Nee naan..
album is better than Asal...
Yuvan songs look like a rehash of ch-28 & saroja
saroja saman nikalo... has Annathai aadurar oththikko oththikko
machi open the bottle.. has Raman aandalum raavanan aandalum <spb fans.. listen how Mano sings these lines >
surprised to see Mano coming back for Ajith .. & till now my most fav Ajith's mass song remains.. "thala pola varuma" from Attagasam
--------
is there a double role for Ajith.. police & smuggler.. just like Billa (with few alterations)

Trailer is okay. But much better than his previous 2 film trailers. Don't get your hopes skyup. Money, money... sequence is good. Evvalavu naal than nallavanave nadikaradhu sounds good but still not in the range of Billa's "ethanai perai venalum kollalam"My eff game sounds like, well not like how it has to sound. I am happy that at-least he has a decent star cast and crew.

FICUS bags MANKATHA Release in USA
Much awaited Ultimate Star Ajith, Arjun and Venkat Prabhu’s “MANKATHA” – Let’s play the game with Thala", is releasing in USA by GK Media in association with FICUS. "Evalavu Naalu thaan Naanum Nallavana Nadikarathu", a punch line from the trailer has created more curiousity about the movie, Ajith's role which portraits anti-hero and now the expectation is sky high!
Mankatha (Tamil: மங்காத்தா) is an upcoming Tamil action thriller film written and directed by Venkat Prabhu. It will feature Ajith Kumar in the lead role, starring in his 50th film, along with an ensemble cast including Arjun, Trisha Krishnan, Vaibhav Reddy, Lakshmi Rai, Andrea Jeremiah, Premji Amaren and Anjali. It is produced and distributed by Dhayanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine Movies, while Yuvan Shankar Raja composes the musical score and soundtrack, with Sakthi Saravanan working as the cinematographer and the duo Praveen K. L. and N. B. Srikanth as editors.
Mankatha's story is said to revolve around a Mafia gang gambling during the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket season. The film was formally launched in August 2010, with its principal photography beginning on October 25, 2010. Filming was held for more than eight months and took place primarily across Chennai, the Dharavi slum in Mumbai and Bangkok, Thailand. The film's release is scheduled for August or early September 2011.
Story and screenplay by Venkat Prabhu (Chennai 28 and Saroja fame)
Music By Yuvan Shankar Raja, songs are already chartbusters.
Cloud nine which is producing the movie is leaving no stones in the making of MANKATHA to be a Visual Extravaganza.
For more information about the movie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mankatha
LET THE GAME BEGIN &
You want to be part of MANKATHA team and play with Thala in your city.

VP says that the script was written without Thala and later when Ajith expressed interest to do a Joker kind of role, VP told that Mankatha actually has one. Ajith simply nodded at the very moment and Mankatha happened.

Vaada BIn lada rocks.. my fav. in mankatha... Suchitra done a good job, Krish is ok..he tried different style which is worked well.. Mano would have been another good choice....
lyrics are most hilarious part.. Vaali done it again.. and yuvan's mixing of classical ..
வாடா பின்லேடா
ஒளியாதே அச்சோடா
என்னை ட்வின் டவர்
என்று இடிடா
ஜப்பானின் ஹைக்கூவா
ரஷ்யாவின் வோட்காவா
நீ என்னுள் என்ன
கண்டு பிடிடா
நூலாடை நிக்காத இடுப்பு
நீ வந்து சோறாக்கும் அடுப்பு
என்னைத் தொடாமலே
செம்ம சூடேத்துற
நானா நானா
வந்து மோதுறேன்
மத்து கடைவது தயிரைத் தான்
மையல் கடைவது
உயிரைத் தான்
என்று அது ஏதோ
அது ஏதோ
என்னை வாட்டுதே
பன்றி காய்ச்சல் மாதிரி
பருவ காய்ச்சல் தானடி
உதட்டு ஒத்தடம்
உடம்பு மொத்தமும் கேக்கும்
படுக்கை சுத்துது ராத்திரி
புரண்டு கத்துது பூங்கிளி
நிலவு சுட்டது நரம்பில் பட்டது
தீப்பொறி
ஒதுங்கி நின்னது காளை தான்
உரசி வந்தது கரவை தானி
மனசு கெட்டது மயங்கி விட்டது
எம்மா எம்மா என்ன சும்மா சும்மா
நின்ன தாக்குவே
கிரிக்கெட் என்பது ஃபிக்ஸிங் தான்
காதல் என்பது மிக்ஸிங் தான்
இங்கு பெட் மேல பெட் கட்டி
தினம் ஆடலாம்
பந்தக் கண்டதும் கேட்சு தான்
புடிச்சு ஜெயிப்ப மேட்சு தான்
விடியும் மட்டிலும்
வெளுத்து கட்டுவ பேட்டில்
எனக்கு வாச்சது
பிட்சு தான்
உனக்கு வைக்கணும்
இச்சு தான்
இளமை ஃபீவரு
ட்வென்டி ஓவரு போதுமா
அடிச்சு ஆடுற தோனிதான்
அதுக்கு ஏங்குற மேனிதான்
விரகம் என்பதும் நரகம் என்பதும் ஒன்னு ஒன்னு
சின்ன பொண்ணு பொண்ணு
உன்னை கூடுதே
ஒன்னா ஒன்னொன்னா
நான் சொன்ன சும்மா சொன்னா
அத செய்வது உன் ட்யூட்டியடி
ஏய் எம்மா எம்மம்மா
சும்மா நீ சும்மா உன் இஷ்டம்

Mankatha snapped up by Studio Green
Sify.com was the first to point out that if Ajith’s Mankatha has to release, it cannot be under the Cloud Nine banner.
It has been proved correct with Gnanavel Raja and his Studio Green grabbing the rights for the film.
Now Mankatha will be a Studio Green production and will be presented by Gnanavel Raja. The film has been purchased “lock stock and barrel” by Raja, who will now have Indian domestic theatre and the Television rights of the film. Raja has purchased the film at a record amount for a Ajith film.
Speaking to sify.com, Gnanavel Raja said: “ Mankatha theatrical and other rights have been purchased by Studio Green. The film is getting censored tomorrow (Aug 23) and we are trying our best to release it on Aug 31 worldwide.”
Mankatha changing hands is a major happening in Kollywood. It is a win, win situation for Ajith and director Venkat Prabhu.

சூரியாவின் கையில் சிக்கிய மங்காத்தா!
சினிமாவிலும் கோடி கட்டிப் பறந்தது.
தமிழகத்தில் திமுக ஆட்சி இருந்தவரை கருணாநிதி பேரன்களின் ராஜ்யம்தான்
முக அழகிரியின் மகன், தற்போது தன் மீது வழக்குகள் பாயலாம் என்று பயந்து லண்டனில் வாழ்ந்துவருவதாகச் சொல்லபடும் துரை.
அழகியின் க்ளவுட் நைன் தயாரித்த முந்தைய படங்களான வ- குவார்ட்டர் கட்டிங், அழகர்சாமியின் குதிரை ஆகிய படங்களை திரையிட்டு பெரும் நஷ்டத்தை சந்தித்திருக்கிறார்களாம் தியேட்டர் உரிமையாளர்கள்.
ஆனால் திமுக ஆட்சியின்போது இந்த நஷ்டத்தை தரவில்லையாம் துரை. தயாநிதி. இதனால் இவர் தற்போது தயாரித்திருக்கும் மங்காத்தா படத்தை வெளியிட விடக்கூடாது என்று அந்தபடத்தை வாங்க மறுத்ததோடு அதற்கு முன் தங்களுக்கு ஏற்பட்ட நஷ்டத்தை ஈடுகட்ட வேண்டும் என்றும் கோரிக்கை வைத்தார்கள்.
இதனால் ஆகஸ்ட் 30-ஆம் தேதி அல்லது அடுத்த மாதம் 1 ஆம் தேதி மங்காத்தாவை வெளிக் கொண்டு வரும் முயற்சியில் ஈடுபட்ட க்ளவுட் நைன்னுக்கு, திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்களின் பழைய நஷ்டத்தை மங்காத்தாவில் ஈடுகட்ட வேண்டும் என்றதும் ஆடிப்போய்விட்டார்களாம். இதுவே நம்ம ஆட்சியா இருந்தா வாயத் திறந்து கேட்பார்களா என்று கேட்டாராம் அழகிரி.
இனி நமது பேனரில் வராது என்று தெரிந்ததும் தற்போது சூரியாவின் படநிறுவனமான கிரீன் ஸ்டூடியோவிடம் மொத்த உரிமையையும் அவுட் ரேட்டுக்கு விற்று விட்டார்களாம். தற்போது சூரியாவின் பட நிறுவனம்தான் மங்காத்தாவை வெளியிட இருக்கிறது.
அஜித் தற்போது பில்லா இரண்டில் பிஸியாகி விட்டாலும் சூரியாவின் கைகளுக்கு தனது படம் போனதை விரும்பவில்லையாம் அஜித்!

Ajith's Mankatha gets censored!
http://static.sify.com/cms/image/lixqDJabhbe.jpg
On the Mankatha front, everything is moving at rapid pace.
The film changed hands from its original producers Cloud Nine on Monday, with Studio Green purchasing it. On Tuesday Ajith’s 50th film has got censored with an U/A certificate!
Gnanvel Raja who is the new negative rights holder of the film said: “I’m very happy that Mankatha has been censored, and now we are starting promotions for the film which will release on August 31.”
Venkat Prabhu has tweeted- “Yes, U/A certificate for Mankatha! Censor Board loved it! So you guys get to see everything from the film!"

மறுபடியும் பிரச்னையில் மங்காத்தா?
http://cinema.vikatan.com/images/art...8mankathaa.jpg
அஜீத்தின் 50வது படமான 'மங்காத்தா'விற்கு இந்த அளவிற்கு சிக்கல் இருக்கும் என்று நினைத்து கூட பார்த்து இருக்க மாட்டார் அஜீத்.
முதலில் தயாநிதி அழகிரி தனது க்ளவுட் நைன் மூவிஸ் நிறுவனம் மூலம் வெளியிடப்படும் என்று அறிவித்தார். வெளிநாட்டு உரிமையை மட்டும் ஐங்கரன் நிறுவனத்திடம் ஒப்படைத்து இருந்தார்.
நேற்று (ஆகஸ்ட் 23) காலை வந்த பேப்பர் விளம்பரங்களில் ஸ்டூடியோ 'க்ரீன் பெருமையுடன் வழங்கும் மங்காத்தா' என்று விளம்பரப்படுத்தினர். இதனால் 'மங்காத்தா' பிரச்னை முடிந்துவிட்டது என்றும் இனிமேல் படத்திற்கு எந்த ஒரு பிரச்னையும் இல்லை என்றும் பேச்சுகள் நிலவின.
இன்று (ஆகஸ்ட் 24) ஒரு சில நாளேடுகளைத் தவிர வேறு எதிலும் விளம்பரம் வரவில்லை. மறுபடியும் பிரச்னையா என்று கேள்வி எழுந்துள்ளது.
படத்தின் தயாரிப்பாளரான தயாநிதி அழகிரி தனது டிவிட்டர் இணையத்தில் " மங்காத்தா திரைப்படம் ஸ்டூடியோ க்ரீன் பேனரின் கீழ் வராது. இன்று அதிகாலை நாங்கள் சொல்வதற்குள் பேப்பரில் விளம்பரத்தை நீக்கும் நேரம் தாண்டிவிட்டது. ஆனால் கண்டிப்பாக எதிர்ப்பார்த்தபடி மங்காத்தா படம் ஆகஸ்ட் 31ம் தேதி வெளியாகும் " என்று தெரிவித்துள்ளார்.
ஸ்டூடியோ க்ரீன் ஞானவேல் ராஜாவும் இனிமே தனது நிறுவனத்திற்கும் 'மங்காத்தா' படத்திற்கும் எந்தவித சம்பந்தமும் இல்லை என்று தெரிவித்து இருக்கிறார்.
இந்நிலையில் படத்தை பிரம்மாண்டமாக வெளியிட முடிவு செய்துள்ள தயாநிதி அழகிரி, படத்தை சன் டி.வி நிறுவனத்திடம் கொடுக்க இருப்பதாக தகவல்கள் வெளியாகியுள்ளன. அதற்கான பேச்சுவார்த்தைகள் தற்போது நடைபெற்று வருகின்றன.
இன்னும் ஓரிரு மணி நேரங்களில் இதற்கான அதிகாரப்பூர்வ தகவல்கள் வெளியாகலாம்.

Breaking News : Sun Pictures Bags Mankatha Finally
It seems Mankatha is having twists not only in silver screen but in reality too.
On monday, it was officially announced that K.E.Gnanavel Raja of "Studio Green" bagged the Indian theatrical & satellite rights of Mankatha from Cloud Nine Movies Dhayanidhi Alagiri. Today's Dinakaran paper too carried an ad stating that Mankatha will be released by Studio Green and in that ads there was no Cloud nine Movies logo or name.
Yesterday, Mankatha was sent to censor board and it got a clean U/A certificate with no cuts. Director Venkat Prabhu tweeted that the censor board officials enjoyed the movie. After censoring, Gnanavel Raja express his happiness about the outcome of the film and announced that the film will hit the screens on Aug 31st. Slated for Aug 31st release, the above said infos created more expectation among Ajith fans and Tamil cinema fans too.
Now arrives yet another interesting twist. Due to some reasons, Studio Green Gnanavel Raja moved out of the deal. and now, Sun Pictures Kalanidhi Maran today bagged the rights of Mankatha from Cloud Nine Movies for a whopping amount. Yes, the Indian theatrical & satellite rights are now finally in the hands of Sun Pictures Kalanidhi Maran. This is the first time ever, Sun Pictures is releasing a Ajith film, that too his 50th
Surprisingly, Red Giant Movies Udayanidhi Stalin also join hands with them to release Mankatha. This is the first time ever Sun Pictures, Cloud Nine Movies & Red Giant are jointly releasing a film.
STARAJITH confirms that Mankatha will be released on Aug 31, 2011 as scheduled in all parts of the world except Kerala. And in Kerala, Mankatha hits the screens on Sep 9th.
Rocking promos are to be aired in Sun Network channels very shortly.

அமெரிக்காவில் மங்காத்தா... 70 திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியாகிறது!
அஜீத்தின் 50 வது படமான மங்காத்தா அமெரிக்காவில் மட்டும் 70 திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியாகிறது.
அஜீத்தின் படம் ஒன்று அமெரிக்காவில் இத்தனை திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியாவது இதுவே முதல்முறை.
வெங்கட் பிரபு இயக்கத்தில் உருவாகியுள்ள மங்காத்தாவில் அர்ஜூன், த்ரிஷா, லட்சுமிராய், அஞ்சலி, ஆண்ட்ரியா, ப்ரேம்ஜி என பெரும் நட்சத்திரப் பட்டாளமே நடித்துள்ளது. நீண்ட இடைவெளிக்குப் பிறகு வெளியாகும் 'மல்டி ஸ்டாரர்' படம் இது என வெங்கட் பிரபு கூறி வருகிறார்.
இதனால் ரசிகர்கள் மத்தியில் இந்தப் படத்துக்கு பெரும் எதிர்ப்பார்ப்பு எழுந்துள்ளது.
இடையில் படம் வெளியிடுவதில் ஸ்டுடியோ கிரீன், சன் பிக்சர்ஸ், க்ளவுட் நைன் என தயாரிப்பு நிறுவனங்களுக்கிடையே ஒரு 'மங்காத்தாவே' நடந்து வந்த நிலையில், இப்போது புதிதாக ராதிகாவின் ராடான் நிறுவனமும் மங்காத்தா வெளியீட்டில் களமிறங்கியுள்ளது.
படம் ஆகஸ்ட் 31-ம் தேதி வெளியாவது உறுதி என தயாரிப்பாளர் தயாநிதி அழகிரி திரும்ப திரும்ப உறுதி கூறினாலும், இன்னும் நிச்சயமற்ற நிலைதான் நிலவுகிறது.

When Prakash Raj felt the heat?
Director Venkat Prabhu has recently thrown a special screening of Mankatha to Prakash Raj. The veteran actor is completely floored by Ajith’s performance in the film. Expressing his views on the film, Prakash Raj told Venkat Prabhu that Ajith’s performance in the film is exceptional. Infact Ajith has outdone all the villains in the industry, added Prakash Raj!
As we reported earlier, Mankatha is hitting the screens on 31st August. The promotion of the movie will be done by Sun Pictures in association with Cloud Nine Movies. The distribution part is taken care by Sun Pictures.
This is the first Star reaction on Mankatha. Watch out this space for more on the film.

Where will Ajith be on August 31st?
The entire Mankatha team, including Ajith, will travel down to Tirupati for a darshan of Lord Balaji on the day Mankatha hitting the screens (August 31st, 2011). The film’s release is so important to the entire team, particularly Ajith, as it happens to be his 50th film.
Interestingly, Mankatha’s music director Yuvan Shankar Raja will also tie the nuptial knot with Dr. Shilpa in Tirupati the very next day, September 1st.
Director Venkat Prabhu, who happens to be Yuvan’s cousin, and his other cousins including Premji Amaren, who has donned an important role in Mankatha, will also be in Tirupati along with the others

http://www.starajith.com/2663-dont-m...th-50-mankatha
This is a festive week; It is ramzan, Ganesh Chathurthi and yes.. Mankatha. It is going to be Worship, Food and Good entertainment. With Just one more day left for open the bottle, Expectations are soaring Sky high for Mankatha; Trailers rocking in Sun Channels every ten minutes , the General public is busy scouting tickets for the first festival opening week end. Mankatha is clearly the talk of the town.
Kollywood is astonished on how thala could manage such a grand opening of Mankatha in spite of dissolving the fan clubs. With almost all tickets sold out for the first opening Long week end, thala has proved the point that his fans will adore him even without fan clubs
What we are to remind you now, will only raise it even more among Ajith's fans, for director Venkat Prabhu has a different kind of surprise to fans through Ajith's 50th offering to Tamil cinema .Venkat Prabhu is popular to keep audience glued to the screens till the very end of the movie, including the end credits where he showcases some interesting and funny happenings from the sets of his movie.
Venkat Prabhu will broadcast his stars funny bloopers at the sets in the end credits of 'Mankatha' as well! This will be the first time ever that fans will get to see Ajith's bloopers in his film! Venkat Prabhu expressed to his tweet pals saying, "End credits of Mankatha will be extraordinary (extraordinary) than my previous movies!!! U guys can catch Thala`s bloopers for the very 1st time”
A blooper is a short sequence of a film or video production, usually a deleted scene, containing a mistake made by a member of the cast or crew. It is usual to what we used to see at the end of any Jackie Chan’s Movie .Please don’t miss to watch the 4 minute End credits after the movie is complete. The End Credits will showcase how jovial Thala is.
Mankatha is a long but interesting Movie. The film will run for 2.45 hours (Usually Tamil movies are 2.10 minutes to 2.30 minutes).
Get ready folks, Mankatha is going to be Evil and Sexy.

http://heyandhra.in/2011/08/ajith-tr...ler-tollywood/Hero Ajith and Trisha starrer Mankatha is getting released in Telugu as Gambler. Directed by Venkat Prabhu, this golden jubilee film of Ajith is to hit the theatres on September 9. Multi-dimension Entertainment bought the dubbing rights of the flick and releasing it across the state. Yuvan Shankar Raja is the music director. The plot has the gambling that took place during IPL cricket season as its backdrop. Multi-dimension Entertainment recently produced Varun Sandesh’s Brahmigadi Katha. Also, it is presenting Nitin and Nitya Menon’s Ishq, which is in the making.

http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/t...cle/70330.htmlNews about 'Mankatha' hitting theatres in just a couple of days has created frenzy among the film lovers and Ajith fans, who are poised to beeline at the ticket counters. As the much-hyped 'Mankatha' will be hitting theatres on August 31, the entire team of 'Mankatha,' inclusive of director Venkat Prabhu and lead star Ajith Kumar will be present at Tirumala Tirupati to invoke the blessings of the divine will.
Contrary to the usual style of new releases hitting theatres during weekend, 'Mankatha' is releasing just a day prior to Vinayaka Chathurthi (September 1, Wednesday), a state holiday in Tamil Nadu. The entire team is positive that Vinayak Mahadevan (Ajith's character) of 'Mankatha' will leave an ever-lasting imprint in the hearts of film fanatics of Tamil Nadu.
Yet another happy tiding for team 'Mankatha' is that its music director Yuvan Shankar Raja will be exchanging marital vows with Dr Shilpa on September 1. This is also a time for the 'Mankatha' team to celebrate because of Yuvan being Venkat Prabhu's cousin.
With an excited audience who have been waiting since long for 'Mankatha's release on one side, and an anxious 'Mankatha' team who are eager to see the film's box-office reports, 'Mankatha' will prove to be one grand milestone in Ajith's and Venkat Prabhu's career graph, let's hope!
Here is wishing the 'Mankatha' team a roaring victory in its innings at the box-office

MANKATHA MOVIE PREVIEW
http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...e-preview.htmlBeing Ajith’s 50th film, the expectations for Mankatha have gone straight through the stratosphere. Few flicks barring of course Superstar Rajinikanth’s films have generated this kind of feverish excitement in recent times. Every miniscule detail about the film that has leaked out has been devoured by the fans who have consequently worked themselves up into a raging frenzy. Ajith’s brand new look for the film is believed to have been inspired by Hollywood star George Clooney, voted by People magazine as the sexiest man in the world. Of course in these parts, people swear that Ajith has rocked this look and looks way better than the Hollywood heartthrob.
Venkat Prabhu, the director of super hits like Chennai 600028 and Saroja has promised hardcore Ajith fans a treat they will never forget. He proudly claimed that he himself is a huge Ajith fan and therefore knows exactly what his admirers expect from him and has made the film accordingly.
The music by Yuvan Shankar Raja has enjoyed record sales from day one. The Yuvan – Venkat Prabhu combo has been an extremely successful one in the past and Mankatha has proved again that the cousins make a winning team where music is concerned. The songs are being played everywhere and are really setting the mood for the film which stands on the brink of release.
The makers have been careful not to let too many plot details slip, but the buzz is that Ajith’s character has shades of grey and will be involved in a cat and mouse game with Arjun’s cop character. The film has a starry cast with the likes of Premji Amaren, Vaibhav, Aravind Akash and some fresh talent. Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Andrea and Anjali are the lovely ladies who are going to add sizzle to the proceedings.
The stage is set and the curtains are ready to go up on this spectacular project. The fans are waiting with bated breath for the latest offering from their favorite hero. And not just the fans, Tamil cinema lovers everywhere are also anxious for a helping of Ajith Kumar.

Mankatha: the biggest opening ever!
Mankatha is getting the biggest opening ever; but then it is no surprise because the film stars Ajith. The online bookings are full for the weekend and so are the advance bookings at the theatres.
Interestingly, all the theatres and multiplexes that are screening this film are running special shows from morning to night and still there is dearth of tickets. This proves that the film is going to have the biggest and grandest opening ever!
Mankatha is a directorial venture from Venkat Prabhu and the film stars Ajith, Arjun, Trisha, Lakshmi Rai and several others.

Big booking for 'Mankatha'
Ajith fans have proved it again. Right from the moment the booking for 'Mankatha', the 50th of film of their Thala, began, they started thronging to cinema halls where the movie will be screened, to get tickets for first day.
Theatre sources say the response is so huge and they are so happy. Even online booking is witnessing a history of sorts, it is said. "Ajith is always referred to as king of opening. It has been proved once again," they add.
Sun Pictures, which is distributing 'Mankatha' in association with Radhika Sarathkumar's Radaan Media, is releasing the film in over 300 theatres in Tamil Nadu. "Since there are two holidays this week (Ramzan and Vinayaka Chathurthi), no doubt that the movie would see a gala opening," according to trade circles.
Produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine Movies and directed by Venkat Prabhu, 'Mankatha' is actually a multi-starrer, with the most powerful role played by the Thala. Others in the cast are Arjun, Trisha, Andrea Jeremiah, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai, Premgi Amaran and Vaibhav.

to me.. it looks like VP has clear plan for this movie... i am just looking back from the first teaser made.. the background score for it.. think the tone, songs, music chosen based on a theme what VP has.. it looks the team has put their effort to bring out the best looks.. from where they started : teaser video and teaser picture..VP tried a different look... like what Shankar does to his movies.

Open Letter to Venkat Prabhu
Opening fight & opening song are tradmarks of saraku illaadha directors, not something I would expect from you.
Heck, there is opening sequences for Arjun and Premji
And characters refering to "Action King", "Thala" simply means that you are not taking cinema seriously, esp in serious scenes.
Quite obvious you have not done your homework. The movie meanders aimlessly - where is the #$@* screenplay?
Only when the "twist" comes nearly 2 hours into the movie, is there some semblance of attempt.
Even the predictable ending is unimaginative.
Recycled "jokes" means you don't have anything new to offer. You may find "EKSI", "evlO pannittOm..." funny, but not when you repeat that in every movie of yours.
Vaanam dialogue, Endhiran dialogue..... pudhusaa, sondhamaa yOsinga VP - I thot you excelled in comedy?
Granted that you have a Top Star, but does that mean that you have to stinge in other aspects of movie making? What kind of film did you use? Cheap!
For the song "Vada Bin Lada" you could use rich colors, why not for the whole movie?
After all its a landmark movie for Ajith.
And what is with the juvenile usage of CGI?
Venkat Prabhu, I am sorry to say this: you have not taken Thamizh movies forward with this movie.
My sympathies to Ajith for having faith in you. Surely, he deserves better.
And making him mouth obscenities takes Thamizh movies to a new low.
And for his sake, I hope this movie makes it at the BO.
You most certainly, don't deserve it.
- your ex-fan, with utmost disappointment
p/s: Let me say something positive at least: The making clips at the end was fun - at least I found them natural and spontaneous.

pathuten...
first half was a bit dragging but once the movie enters the plot then it picks up..the build up towards the interval sets up for the second half which is rocking..not a dull moment..very racy with unexpected twists..surely a thorough entertainer for the general audience..
premji,vaibav,ashwin,mahat all have done well..heroines ellam waste no role for any one..Arjun has lesser screen space but he rocks in his action sequences and the confrontation with Ajith is saravedi...music is ok..vilayadu mankatha and MOTB rocks to the core thanks to amazing choreography..it makes us dance surely..
and the major highlight obviously the 50 man..great screen presence..wow he looks deadly as a bad man..not one scene where you cannot clap and whistle for him..he seems to have enjoyed doing this film and it shows..hopefully in the result too..super mass movie for Ajith..probably his best mass film..
and VP--has done everything to show Ajith in the best possible way and has many dialouges for Ajith..shankare seyyumbodhu for Rajini why not for Ajith and he has a interesting screenplay with good elements..idhula logic ellam pakka kudadhu..it is a kaviyam in masala commercial circle with a King Maker riding on it..

A review from my frind- neutral guy
1st half is OK. Brilliant at times and testing ur patience at times. 2nd half is lightening fast. Lakshmi rai has a bigger role than trisha. Bad language has been used more than required. Ajith looks great. Overall, it is a feast for Ajith fans. For others, it will be a very good entertainment. More than the film, i enjoyed the FDFS xperience.

twist in the climax ellaam stuff really .. Ajith has done well ..his dancing looks good too .. bread and butter role for Arjun .. Premji rocks in the 2nd half .. ithu enga ballelakka song is cool .. too many fights and gun shots .. and lots of "i-will-make-you-act" scenes .. it cud have been better .. but not bad ..[B] its a decent entertainer .. will be a hit seeing the response .. [/B ] but not family audience types.. this is where Ajith is throwing away the opening advantage to the likes of Vijay, Surya etc ..
btw, the editing in the first half was irritating .. Venkat Prabhu dint entertain here as much as a C-28, Saroja or Goa (1st half esp.. simply best ) .. Ajith has more to do than in a Billa.. Billa was more "neat" though ..

Mankatha is everything one would expect (or want?) it to be: A complete masala entertainer with doses of slickness, comedy and riveting dishoom-dishoom.
...And one unique element added to this? The unabashed portrayal of negative shades of characters and lack of forced moral correctness! Yes. In this movie, it's not always that the good guys defeating the bad guys; just as the bad guys are fun enough that you'd want them to win!
The entertainment in the movie is not so much the storyline itself - which is a dirty-cops-and-heist-gone-wrong thriller - but the zippy screenplay, big doses of humour and Ajith's grandeur and "coolth".
Simple story:
The latest white-collar crime with blue-collar shades? Illegal betting on cricket matches by Indian and international communities like on the IPL matches. Who are the main characters?
Jayaprakash is the Chettiar who owns Golden Theatres in Mumbai, which forms the front for all his illegal businesses, like money laundering, gambling, etc. Also he isthe father of Sanjana, played by Trisha. There's suspended cop Vinayak Mahadevan (Ajith), tainted S.I. Ganesh (Ashwin), Chettiar's cronies Faizal (Arvind Akash) and Sumanth (Vaibhav), their friend Mahat (Mahat Raghavendra) and his geeky friend Prem (Premgi Amaren), supercop Asst. Commissioner Prithviraj (Arjun) and his loyal aide Kamal Ekambaram (Subbu). The ladies in the movie are Sanjana, Sona (Lakshmi Rai) and Suchitra (Anjali). Andreah plays a small role as Prithviraj's wife.
Big pluses:
First: I personally liked the fact that Venkat Prabhu chose to thumb his nose at fake morals-upholding business one sees in Tamil films. So what if the bad guys are good to look at or fun enough that we as the audience would cheer for them. So what if the supposed "hero" is a cad. So what if every character has big swathes of grey in it! It's an entertainer, not a moral studies lecture and our job is to sit back, relax and enjoy the hours of entertainment.
Then: This is an out-and-out Ajith film. He's greying around the temples, sports a scruffy stubble, doesn't have a hero's lightning-fast reflexes anymore and isn't skinny or rippling with muscle. But boy, he's got charisma and style. Pizzazz and panache. Looks and personality. Cool lines peppered with bleeped-out cuss words. The look, the role, the character and the mood suits him perfectly. You go, bro!
Next: Just because it's an Ajith film doesn't mean everyone else in the movie is simply chopped liver. Every single other character has weight and strength. The boys Premgi, Vaibhav, Arvind Akash, Ashwin and Mahat have done a superb job. Ashwin is especially impressive - tall, good-looking and a promising actor. Vaibhav is superb. Premgi is adorable. Mahat is one of those cute guys with a mean streak - perfect.

Finally, one of the most expected films of 2011 is here. 'Mankatha' starring Ajith has made headlines practically everyday and fans are enthralled about this film. Watch this video to see the mass openings the 'King Of Openings', Ajith has received, what his fans have to say about their thala, the buzz before the film and a lot more!
As they say, one wonders after watching this video, 'thala pola varuma...'?

மணிரத்னம்-அஜீத் சந்திப்பு புதுப்பட பேச்சு வார்த்தையா?
மங்காத்தா ஆட்டம் எப்படியிருக்கும் என்பதை இன்னும் சில மணி நேரங்களில் தெரிந்து கொள்ளப்போகிறோம். இதற்கிடையில் சென்னையில் முகாமிட்டிருந்த அஜீத் அடிக்கடி ஐதரபாத்துக்கும் சென்னைக்கும் பறந்து கொண்டிருக்கிறார். காரணம் ராமோஜிராவ் பிலிம் சிட்டியில் பில்லா-2 படப்பிடிப்பு நடந்து கொண்டிருக்கிறது.
கடந்த சில தினங்களுக்கு முன் நடந்த ஒரு விஷயத்தை பற்றிதான் இன்டஸ்ட்ரியே பேசிக் கொண்டிருக்கிறது. வேறொன்றுமில்லை, மணிரத்னமும், அஜீத்தும் சந்தித்து சுமார் அரை மணி நேரம் பேசியிருக்கிறார்கள். பொதுவாக மணிரத்னம் எந்த ஹீரோவையும் இதுவரை தேடிப் போனதில்லை என்கிறார்கள். கமல்ஹாசனிடம் மட்டும்தான் எவ்வித ஈகோவும் இல்லாமல் அவரது வீட்டுக்கே போய் பேசிக் கொண்டிருப்பாராம்.
அஜீத்தை சந்திக்க அவரே வந்ததுதான் ஆச்சர்யம் ஸ்கொயர் ஆகியிருக்கிறது. இந்த சந்திப்புக்கு பின்னணியில் இருக்கிற மர்மத்தை ஆராய்ந்து ஒரு முடிவுக்கு வந்திருக்கும் சினிமாக்காரர்கள் விரைவில் இருவரும் இணைந்து ஒரு படத்தை உருவாக்கக் கூடும் என்கிறார்கள்.

மங்காத்தா ரிலீஸ்.. அதிரடி வெற்றி!
அஜீத்தின் மங்காத்தா படம ரசிகர்களின் ஏகோபித்த வரவேற்பைப் பெற்றுள்ளது. பல தடைகளைக் கடந்து பெரும் எதிர்ப்பார்ப்புகிடையில் வெளியான அஜீத்தின் பொன்விழாப் படமான மங்காத்தாவை அஜீத்தின் ரசிகர்கள் கொண்டாடி வருகின்றனர்.
பில்லா படத்துக்குப் பிறகு சொல்லிக் கொள்ளும்படி அஜீத்துக்கு படமே அமையாத நிலையில், இந்த மங்காத்தா படத்தை அவர் ஒப்புக் கொண்டார்.
வெங்கட் பிரபு இயக்கத்தில் தயாநிதி அழகிரியின் தயாரிப்பில் கடந்த ஓராண்டாக இந்தப் படம் தயாராகி வந்தது. ஆனால் வெளியாகும்போது பல்வேறு சிக்கல்களை இப்படம் சந்தித்தது. படம் வெளியாகும் தேதியை கூட அறுதியிட்டு கூறமுடியாத நிலை.
ஆனால் கடைசி நேரத்தில் ரெட்ஜெயன்ட் உதயநிதி ஸ்டாலின் தலையிட்டு, படத்தை சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் மூலம் வெளியிட வைத்தார். உடன் ராதிகாவின் சரத்குமாரின் ராடான் மீடியாவும் படத்தை இணைந்து வெளியிட்டது.
இன்று காலை படத்தின் முதல்காட்சிக்கு அனைத்து இடங்களிலும் கூட்டம் அலைமோதியது. சிறப்புக் காட்சிகள் காலை 4 மணியிலிருந்தே ஆரம்பித்துவிட்டன. படம் பார்த்த அத்தனை பேரும் மீண்டும் படத்தைக் காண டிக்கெட்டுகளுக்காக அலைய ஆரம்பித்துள்ளனர்.

Posters paathuthaan pOnen, but full house. So correct'aana calculation panrathu kashtam. Venumna neenga pannungalen (appaada thappichaachi ).

Venkat Prabhu directed the prestigious 50th film of Ultimate Star Ajit, with the title 'Mankatha'. There was a gossip that Nagarjuna was asked to play cameo in the film, but he could not adjust the dates due to his pre-occupation with other projects. Arjun replaced Nagarjuna in the role. Trisha paired up with the hero.
The Tamil version was produced by Dayanidhi Azhagiri on the banner of Cloud Nine Movies. As Ajit is a known face in Telugu with films like 'Prema Lekha' and other such films, Multi- Dimension Films bought the dubbing rights of the prestigious film and started the dubbing and other post-production works in Telugu.
Though earlier it was planned to release the film simultaneously in Telugu and Tamil, the Tamil version of the film had hit the screens on August 31.
Surprisingly, the film was proved a biggest hit and reportedly had the highest openings in Tamil which surpassed the records of Tamil Super Star Rajanikanth's 'Robot'.
Let us hope Ajit would repeat the same magic in Telugu, as dubbed films are ruling the roost in Telugu these days.

watched Mankatha.. Thala acting and twist make us to think always what next?
There are some dull moments.. and VPs film.. expected!.. but should appreciate he have improved.. have to improve a lot when he directs big stars.. kudos to his thought for making plot..which makes audience guessing..
Salute to Thala for his guts.. will any other actor would take this kind of role? I sincerely wish GOOD directors to utilize Thala to make a complete near to flawless movie. todate.. only Shankar can do that.!
Can guess Thala enjoyed acting in this movie with this fun filled team.. nevertheless the fun is passed on to you while seeing it..
come on.. when ever we watch english movie, how many times we would have thought, why not this kind of theme doesnt been explored in our cinema.. this is one such... just enjoy as it is... never fails to entertain you! and Thala's performance will make you watch more than once!
you will enjoy more, if you can feel yourself a bad and mad man !!

btw, the editing in the first half was irritating .. Venkat Prabhu dint entertain here as much as a C-28, Saroja or Goa (1st half esp.. simply best ) .. Ajith has more to do than in a Billa.. Billa was more "neat" though ..

மங்காத்தா - சினிமா விமர்சனம்
பெரும் எதிர்ப்பார்ப்புக்கிடையே வந்துள்ள அஜீத்தின் பொன்விழாப் படம் மங்காத்தா. அஜீத்துக்காக இந்த ஆட்டத்தில் வென்றிருக்கிறார் இயக்குநர் வெங்கட் பிரபு என்பதுதான் சரியாக இருக்கும். உள்ளூர் சமாச்சாரத்தை கொஞ்சம் ஹாலிவுட் சாயத்தில் முக்கியெடுத்திருக்கிறார். களைகட்டுகிறது ஆட்டம்!
இந்தியாவின் நிஜ சூதாட்டமான ஐபிஎல் கிரிக்கெட்டில், பெட்டிங் பணமாக கட்டப்படும் ரூ 500 கோடியை அப்படியே தனதாக்கிக் கொள்ள திட்டமிடுகிறார் ஜெயப்பிரகாஷ். இவர்தான் கிரிக்கெட் சூதாட்டத்தின் முக்கியப் புள்ளி.
இந்தப்பணத்தை அவரிடமிருந்து பறிக்கத் திட்டமிடுகின்றனர், ஜெயப்பிரகாஷிடம் வேலைப் பார்க்கும் வைபவ் உள்ளிட்ட நால்வர் கோஷ்டி. இன்னொரு பக்கம், இந்த சூதாட்டத் தொகை பற்றி கேள்விப்படும் போலீஸ் உஷாராகி, அர்ஜுன் தலைமையில் ஒரு போலீஸ் படையை மும்பையில் களமிறக்குகிறது. விஷயம் புரிந்து உஷாராகிறது வைபவ் கோஷ்டி. அப்போதுதான் இந்த நால் அணியை மோப்பம் பிடித்து, அவர்கள் மூலமே விஷயத்தைக் கறந்துவிடுகிறார் அஜீத். சஸ்பென்ட் செய்யப்பட்ட போலீஸ் அதிகாரி இவர்.
இப்போது இவரும் அந்த ரூ 500 கோடியை தானே திட்டமிட்டுக் கொள்ளையடிக்கிறார் அஜீத். அந்தப் பணத்துக்காக அஜீத், ஜெயப்பிரகாஷ், போலீஸ் அதிகாரி அர்ஜூன் மற்றும் அஜீத்தின் உடனிருக்கும் நால்வரும் பெரும் சேஸிங்கை நடத்துகின்றனர். இதில் யார் ஜெயிக்கிறார்கள் என்பதுதான் மங்காத்தா ஆட்டத்தின் க்ளைமாக்ஸ்.
தனது 50 வது படத்தை முன்னணி கலைஞர்களுடன் இணைந்து பங்குபோட்டுக் கொண்ட அஜீத்தின் பக்குவத்தைப் பாராட்டத்தான் வேண்டும்.
கிட்டத்தட்ட சரிபாதி வெளுத்த நரை, ஐந்தாறு நாள் தாடி, அசத்தலான கறுப்புக் கண்ணாடி கெட்டப்பில் மனதை அள்ளுகிறார் அஜீத். இதற்கு முன் முன்னெப்போதும் பார்த்திராத ஒரு அசத்தல் தோற்றம் இந்தப் படத்தில். எதிர்மறை நாயகன் வேடம் என்றாலே பலவித நடிப்பையும் பரீட்சித்துப் பார்க்கும் ஒரு சுதந்திரமும் தைரியமும் வந்துவிடுகிறது போலும். நடிப்பில் ரசிகர்களுக்கு நல்ல விருந்தே படைத்துவிடுகிறார் அஜீத். சண்டை, நடனம், ரொமான்ஸ் என கிடைத்த இடைவெளிகளிலெல்லாம் பவுண்டரி, சிக்ஸர் என வெளுத்திருக்கிறார் அஜீத்.
பல ஆண்டுகளுக்கு தனது 50வது படம் இது என தைரியமாக அவர் சொல்லிக் கொள்ளலாம்.
அஜீத்துக்கு இணையான வேடத்தில் ஆக்ஷன் கிங்காக ஜொலிப்பவர் அர்ஜூன். நடிக்க வந்து இத்தனை ஆண்டுகள் கழித்தும் சண்டைக் காட்சிகள், சேஸிங்குகளில் அர்ஜுன் காட்டும் வேகம் அசாத்தியமானது. ஆங்கிலத்தில் Show stealer என்பார்களே, அது சாட்சாத் அர்ஜூன்தான்!
ஹீரோயின் த்ரிஷாவுக்கு பெரிய ரோல் இல்லைதான். ஆனால் கிடைத்த வாய்ப்பை அழகாகப் பயன்படுத்தி மனதை கவர்கிறார். குறிப்பாக, ரொம்ப அழகாக இருக்கிறார், இதற்கு முந்தைய படங்களில் பார்த்ததை விட!
பிரேம்ஜி வழக்கம்போல. ஆனால் கடி கொஞ்சம் ஓவர். கத்தரி போட்டிருக்கலாம் சில காட்சிகளுக்கு. அஞ்சலியை வீணடித்திருக்கிறார்கள்.
மங்காத்தா பாடலில் லட்சுமிராய் அசத்தல். ஆண்ட்ரியா, வைபவ், ஜெயப்பிரகாஷ் என அனைவரிடமிருந்தும் ஒரு ஆக்ஷன் படத்துக்குத் தேவையானதை பெற்றுக் கொண்டுள்ளார் இயக்குநர்.
மைனஸ் என்று பார்த்தால் படத்தில் வரும் கெட்ட வார்த்தைகள். சென்ஸார் ஊமையாக்கிய பகுதிகளில் இடம்பெறும் வசனங்களை பாத்திரங்களின் வாயசைவை வைத்தே ரசிகர்கள் கண்டுபிடித்து கத்துகிறார்கள். இதை பெண்களால் ரசிக்க முடியுமா (வெளிப்படையாக!) என்பதை யோசித்திருக்க வேண்டும்.
ஆரம்ப காட்சிகள் கொஞ்சம் இழுவைதான். பாத்திரங்களை அறிமுகப்படுத்தவே அரைமணிநேரத்துக்கும் மேல் இயக்குநர் எடுத்துக் கொண்டது சலிப்பை தருகிறது. அஜீத், அர்ஜூன் நன்றாக சண்டை போடுவார்கள் என்பதற்காக எவ்வளவு நேரம்தான் அதையே பார்த்துக் கொண்டிருப்பது என்ற கேள்வி எழுவதை தவிர்க்க முடியவில்லை.
டெக்னிக்கலாகப் பார்த்தால், இந்தப் படம் சின்ன பட்ஜெட்டில் ஹாலிவுட் ஸ்டைலில் எடுக்கப்பட்ட படம் எனலாம். ஒளிப்பதிவில் ஜாலம் காட்டியிருக்கிறார் சக்தி சரவணன்.
யுவன் சங்கர் ராஜாவை இன்னொரு ஹீரோ எனலாம். பாடல்கள் எல்லாமே அட்டகாசம். ரசிகர்கள் ஆடித் தீர்க்கிறார்கள் அரங்கில். பின்னணி இசையும் விறுவிறுப்பு கூட்டுகிறது படத்துக்கு.
இந்தப் படத்தின் விளம்பரங்களில் எ வெங்கட் பிரபு கேம் என விளம்பரப்படுத்துகிறார்கள். அது உண்மைதான். அஜீத்துக்காக வெங்கட் ஆடிய இந்த ஆட்டத்தில் 'தல' டாப் கியரில் எகியிருக்கிறார்!

From: BM on 1st September 2011 10:20 AM [Full View]
Don't know whether VP made 1st half like that intentionally. I couldnt gel with it though it had few good moments. During interval lot of thoughts were running "Is it going to be an another Paramasivan's, Asal's.. 1 n half year kazhichi oru padam, athuvum ipdi poguthe.. Entha director vanthaalum yen namakku mattum ipdi aaguthu..".
During 2nd half intha mind set la irunthu veliya varathuke more than 15 mins aagidchi, machi open the bottle song kooda enjoy panna mudiyala. But once it picks up, i forgot everything. It has become Thala Thala Thala. I'm not good enough to watch a scene where my mind thinks about what will happen next and pat itself on the back if it guesses correctly. All i need from a movie is the moment of excitement, be it VTV's, Angadi Theru's, Dasa's, Enthiran's. Mankatha excited me more than any Ajith's movie.
VP plays this Mankatha game in 1st gear for 40 mins, in 2nd gear till interval, 3rd gear for 15 mins post interval, top gear till the climax and in climax he slaps me hard and says "This is my -deleted- game and i know how to play my Thala's 50". I love that slap.

the first half is getting some criticism .. but for such a movie, you need build up scenes .. but one scene that really tests the patience is the chess-board.. its one scene kept to give scope for Ajith to act .. i felt that VP stretched him out of his "under-playing" acting style in that scene .. i dint feel anything really draggy with other scenes ..

he takes time to introduce all the characters in the first half..and once they plan for the heist,it takes off,but the formula is steady,underplayed first half and a powerful second half with all the best elements..all successfull commercial movies have this and mankaatha is no different.. that interval block was an indication of what Vinayak is headed for..actually there i got hope..and the second half,where many thought it would be more plot oriented which is about betting money..it was full of action..was tough to guess who is on whose side..and the climax was heart beating..no strong story..but a racy entertainer with Thala in full form is a milestone in his career..this kind of a commercial film pathu romba naal achu..i remember the days where i didnt like his decision of opting for VP and leaving GVM..now happy that i am proved wrong.there is no better joy than seeing Ajith in his full avatar.

Same complaint made to VP in his page. He replied something like " vera vazhi illa.. First half'a fill panni aaganum". So i think his script is 2nd half, first half is for building up and introducing charecters ect ect where he can take little liberty. Originally Posted by Siv.S

Ennathu Mankatha=Italianjob oru heist scene.. Athuvum intha mathri heist scene antha oorlaye 2-3 padathula paatha nyabagam.. ocean's 11 yen vituttenga.. athaiyum sethukkalame ? the movie is not at all copy.. Venkat prabhu done his own Tamil movie,infact the heist scene should have been better than this...
Venkat prabhu tried a noir film in Mankatha, where he mixed the mass flavour... the movie has interesting moments some dull moments too.. How many will agree with me that this is Ajith's Best performance ?

Numbers ellam neraya kammiya solli irukaanga. Anyhow lets have this info for reference.Mankatha takes best opening of 2011
Ajith’s 50th golden jubilee film Mankatha, has taken the best ever opening for a film in 2011. In Tamil Nadu, Ajith’s core area the film has done 93 % opening in 350 plus screens.
In Chennai and suburbs (Chengalpet area), the film was screened in nearly 85 screens. The opening astounded the trade, as Ajith had disbanded his fan clubs three months back.
Still loyal fans of the actor came out early in the morning to do “Paalabishekam” on cut-outs of the actor outside theatres like Albert in Egmore, Rocky in Ambattur and many other single screens in TN.
It was fan frenzy everywhere as morning shows which started as early as 5am (Kasi) and multiplexes 8am (Sathyam) got full houses. In fact Sathyam Cinemas screened Mankatha as morning show in all their six screens and got 100 % collections, something that last happened only for Rajinikanth’s Endhiran!
At Mayajaal multiplex on ECR, all the 14 screens showed Mankatha on Ramzan day (Aug 31), and all 70 shows were houseful! The figures are yet to be tabulated, but Mankatha will be Ajith’s best ever opening day collections.

Mankatha - (Box Office) King Maker
One of the best movies this year. I like the racy screenplay and the twists in the story that makes you wonder what happens next, and the end surprised me a lot.
Ajith is terrific in the movie, this role is like tailormade for him, each dialogue and face expression is exceptional. I have been fan of Arjun and watched most of his movies in 90's and pact decade, he succeeds in acting and fighting as usual. Heroines havent got much scope in the movie, but all did fairly well.
Vaibhav, Mahath, Ashwin, Premji needs also to be mentioned they play vital roles in movies. All did well, premji manages to make me laugh during 2nd half, even his last dialogue given the circumstances is funny. Jayaprakash and Arvind Akash as baddies did neat job too, hats off to both.
Editing and Photography is superb, made the movie look slick and stylish.
Yuvan Shankaraja did really good on BGM, songs are already hits, and some of them are picturized well (vaada bin ladaa, vilayadu mankatha)
Venkat Prabhu, managed to pass on the test about whether he is able to dliver a proper movie directing a star, according to me.,
I personally hope Mankatha will be a huge hit, and earn all who contributed to Makatha good names.

Genuine question : Why Ajith Looks so old in this movie? I mean he is around what 38/39 now ?? I mean they could have dyed his hair at least, and he needs to loose weight. Apart from that his acting is very good compared to "other" actors these days.
Arjun is almost 50 and he looks around 30
Trisha as usual looks stunning
One more genuine question : Why in the name of "attracting the younger audience" swearing ( I mean the "F" word) is being used in movies these days ?

Mankatha
Precisely, one must have been clear about what the film is all about right from the time the teasers were released. Yes, it’s about the criminals, bookies and a ‘Big Master Mind’ controlling them with an unpredictable climax that lets you go on top of excitements. Yes, the last 40minutes of the film moves you to the edge of seats and somehow diminishes the sluggish moments during the first half.
A special new word of synonym – Mankatha and Ajith Kumar... Even years later, the fans of Thala would have their minds striking between any of these terms when one of them is spotted. Yes, over the years Ajith Kumar didn’t have such a different and unique role in his career. It’s a special surprise to see him in a full-fledged ‘Negative Role’. During the teasers, we had it straight from the character of Vinayak ‘Naanum Evvalavu Naalthan Nallavanaave Nadikirathu’. He has modulated a lot with his dialogue deliveries, his body language, style and moreover the sense of humour. Courtesy to Venkat Prabhu for making sure that he makes us of the great opportunity of wielding megaphone for Ajith Kumar’s 50th film.
There are four special scenes that deserve special praises for Ajith Kumar’s performance.
1. Scene before intermission, where he narrates the plan of bumping off everyone in the team.
2. The conversation between him and Arjun while Vaibhav is held as approver.
3. His reaction towards Vaibhav and Ganesh.
4. Obviously the climax portion.
Action King Arjun storms with his marvellous performance. In fact, he overshadows Ajith Kumar during climax portions and that’s for his characterization. The combination between Ajith Kumar and Arjun is awesome, which can witness during the bloopers of final credits.
The only problem with the film is that the first half doesn’t have a substantiality over the screenplay until Ajith Kumar breaks open the actual plan during intermission. However, the roller coaster ride during second half is surpassing as it keeps audiences to wonder what’s gonna happen next and naturally they start pondering about the end when Ajith Kumar [spoiler]is shot dead by Arjun[spoiler].
On the whole, first half of ‘Mankatha’ is meant for Ajith Kumar fans while the second half manages to draw the attention of universal audiences. With no big releases scheduled for next few weeks and the jet-speed promotions by Sun Pictures, the film can expect good results in box office.
What works: Ajith Kumar, second half, climax, star-casts, Music, Technical department, more twists in screenplay
What doesn’t work: First half has some light and sluggish moments,
Verdict: Go watch it... Worth doing so

Mankatha review
On the whole, 'Mankatha' has some slow moments during first half, but as the story proceeds during second half, it has gripping moments with an unexpected climax.
With Sun Pictures vigorously promoting the film and no big contenders ahead, the film will go successfully.
Verdict: A Brilliant Mankatha Game

AlEk lifting from hubbers lounge:
Iyyam also Mangatha da. First day, noon show at a local, single screen theatre. Crazy crowd that needed cops controlling them. Big cut-outs (one with a guy tearing his heart revealing thala inside, with the tagline - I am psycho fan of thala), banners, garlands made of playing cards. Glad that I saw the movie in this sorta setup, kinda enjoyed the experience (more of jodhiyila iykiyam). Not really an Ajith fan, but this is the best of what I've seen of him. Arjun, totally ROTFL worthy ("i want some informations"). Vengit Fraffu.. one of the biggest thillalangadees around... Spencer-plaza version of KSR, Perarasu...
Quick guide to make a VP film:
Keyword to remember: Chennai youth.. the ‘hey machi’ gang. Treat them as God and they will in-turn make you one.
1) throw in a handful of ‘namma pasanga’… every guy wants to see himself on screen. Someone like him also will do.
2) now, have loads of gang scenes… no, not the gangster type nor the gang-ra** type, but the ones where ‘youths’ hang-out, mostly jobless, whiling away their time merrily.
3) ladies… cute, sexy, hot, sensual, in short… gummm. The more the better. Not to forget, even the co-dancers in the songs gotta be of the same kind.
4) ‘lathering the hind side’ dance step - absolutely critical.
5) Premji… doesn’t matter how serious or comical the story is, it’s gotta have him repeatedly mouthing a catch-line. And, it doesn’t really matter if he’s funny.
6) grab a set of catchy tunes from Yuvan - catchy I said, catch-phrases, dappanguththu, hip-hop, nursery rhymes… oh yeah, one ‘friendship’ song, musht.
7) Now, slip in a one-liner story. Don’t go thinking too much, feller. Take from whatever was showing on HBO last night, alright? Nay, don’t worry about it… no one’s gonna notice the story if there isn’t gonna be one actually.
8) There you go, now tweet about it for a couple of months and go in for the kill. Release the film machi! Rake in the moolah machi!

மங்காத்தா - புதிய சரித்திரம்
இந்த வருடம் வெளியான அனைத்துப் படங்களின் ஓபனிங்கையும் அடித்து நொறுக்கியிருக்கிறது மங்காதா. அஜீத்தின் சினிமா கேரியரில் இதுதான் மகத்தான வெற்றி, சந்தேகமில்லை.
பண்டிகை தினத்தில் மங்காத்தா வெளியானது. அடுத்தடுத்த தினங்களும் பண்டிகை. கூடுதலாக வார இறுதி. திரையரங்கில் கூட்டம் அம்முகிறது. எந்திரன் திரைப்படத்துக்குப் பிறகு இப்படியொரு கூட்டத்தை திரையரங்கு இப்போதுதான் அனுபவப்படுகிறது.
இந்த வருடம் வெளியான கோ, அவன் இவன் படங்கள் வெளியான முதல் மூன்று தினங்களில் 89 லட்சங்கள் சென்னை மாநக*ரில் வசூலித்தன. இதுவே அதிகபட்ச ஓபனிங். இதனை மங்காத்தா முந்தியிருக்கிறது. சென்னையில் மட்டும் இப்படம் எட்டு கோடிவரை வசூலிக்கும் என்கிறார்கள்.
ஏபிசி என்ற பார்டர்களைத் தாண்டி எல்லா சென்டர்களிலும் மங்காத்தா பிய்த்துக் கொண்டு செல்கிறது. உண்மையில் இதுதான் திரையுலகின் பிரமாண்ட உற்சவம். வேலாயுதம் இந்த பிரமாண்டத்தை தாண்டிச் செல்லுமா என்பதே இப்போது அனைவ*ரின் எதிர்பார்ப்பாகவும் உள்ளது.

Venkat Prabhu, the Mottai Boss
Venkat Prabhu is a very happy man. His film with Ajith Mankath has taken a record opening and looks all set to smash a few box office records atleast. The director went to Tirupati, walked up the hill and had his head tonsured as an offering to Lord Venkateshwara. He is an ardent devotee and prays there regularly. Prior to the release of the film he had prayed for its success there.
Now that Mankatha has done well, Venkat Prabhu felt that thanks were due to the deity. He is now the new Motta Boss! And as a director, Venkat Prabhu has had 3 out of 4 films deemed super successful and that is an enviable track record indeed. So he really is the boss!

Audience response to the movie was overwhelming..... I would say lots of college going girls, working girls, family audience came in at 3rd day itself....one lady's response after watching the movie was this is an "unusual" ajith movie...thala padam nichyam blockbuster...
was very happy to hear these words...
my verdict in one word is it is a KICKASS movie..well done THALA...and thanks to VenkaPrabhu....and not to forget Yuvan's BGM score...simply superb...Thala Pola Varumaa...

Saw the film today ... My review ...
+++
1) i found the screenplay to be good, gradually progressing in first establishing the characters and then the twists in the second and third acts, although the first act dragged a bit. .
2) background score : the scene where Ajith and inspector Ganesh, vaibhav fight over the money - the synth used is amazing .
3) The scene where Vinayak thinks about his plans with chess board as a paradigm : good visualisation , mixed with humor - something unique of VP
4) camera angles : Overall it was ok - certain scenes were too good - like the one when vaibhav gets drunk and comes o his anjali . Nice one .
5) Songs picturisation ; Vada Binleda's juvenile in finish and yet innovative in approach of picturisation, kannadi naan montage are fantastic .
6) N o unnecessary foreign locations for songs or fight scenes . good one . Lot of them seem to be taken in real locations .
7) Bold use of cuss words : yes , its abad trend for teens , but adds weigtage for the character. Whast is the last time you see somebody say Th****** *** and you get a applause !
8) Lady character selection and no unnecessary scenes just to make justice of their remuneration.
9) Supporting characters fit to a T - esp Arjun : what a voice , majestic gait !
----ves
1) Such a dumb intro for thala and the cliched heroine introduction
2) Humor cliches of venkat prabhu
3) repeating same set of actors - beyond a point , u get the ennui of patterns !
4) Dragging first 1 hr
5) PremG : Second half of second half good,. But remaining ? Yawn !
6) In some scenes , VP should have demanded subtle acting from Thala .
If you feel i left Ajith in both these, its because MANGATHA is AJITH and AJITH is MANGATHA . They are inseparable . What Surya did to Singham , AJITH has done better for MANGATHA . Cant imagine , who could have done better !

Mankatha: Ajith sparkles in his 50th film
http://www.deccanchronicle.com/chann...-50th-film-069Mankatha is an Ajith film with other characters revolving around ‘Thala’.
Ajith’s screen presence and aura is such the inconsistencies in screenplay are forgiven. His impeccable style with a salt and pepper look a la George Clooney is a treat to watch.
The actor who gets a chance to don a negative character after a long gap shines and sweeps you off your feet.
Arjun lives up to his reputation of ‘Action King’ tag. A pretty looking Trisha appears in a few scenes and a song and vanishes. For that matter all the female leads – Anjaili, Lakshmi Rai and Andrea are reduced to mere cameos. The second half of the film travels at jet speed with several unexpected twists and turns.
The background score of Yuvan Shankar Raja is good while two of the songs are peppy and hummable. Sakthi Saravanan’s new tone is not very pleasing but is tolerable.
Watch out for the behind-the –scene end title cards which are superb! A mass masala entertainer strictly for Ajith fans!

Good entertaining movie.. with Rubbish ending, NOTa superlative movie interms of content ! Its an one Man Show !
As usual VP and his special effects comedies dude pl give up
Step 1 : Get a Mug filled with water
Step 2 : Throw that mug at mr. ajith face
Step 3 : Run the slow motion capture cameras..
End of special effect
Loop the same first 3 steps , replace Mug of water with Plate, Glass wall etc etc.. EKSwami I
Climax fight .. ajith's best acting till date for me. Indian versan of soker pola chumma dhool !
Must watch atelast twice (highly recommended just for mr.ajith) will try to go for another round over the long weekend.

Simbu aka STR, a self-proclaimed fan of Thala Ajith, who’d always said he wanted to watch the latter’s landmark film Mankatha ‘first day first show’, kept his word and drove all the way from Mysore where he was shooting for his Osthi to a multiplex in the city.
Theatre sources say that he watched both shows (morning and noon) back-to-back at the theatre. Though he couldn’t get tickets for the noon show, he persuaded the theatre management to let him stand on the stairs and watch the entire film again.
STR, who’s back at work, said to this newspaper from Mysore.
“I was waiting for Mankatha’s release. Every day I used to talk to my friends and get updates from Mysore. I was not able to get tickets for the noon show. I saw Murugadoss, Gautham Menon and lots of other filmmakers passing me and going in. Finally, I stood on the stairs and watched the film for the second time!”
He adds, “I watched the film as a layman and an ardent fan of Ajith. I enjoyed every move made by Ajith sir. He is irresistible and has rocked in the film. I was whistling and jumping at each of Ajith’s punchlines. I couldn’t control my emotions. I have behaved like this right from the time I was much younger, whenever I watched Thala’s flicks.”

18 கோடியே 95 லட்சம்!
மங்காத்தாவின் தமிழக உரிமை?
Last Updated 2:50 Hrs [IST], September 03, 2011
மங்காத்தா படத்திற்கு வந்த முதல் நாள் கூட்டம், ஒட்டுமொத்த தமிழகத்தையும் Mankathaபிரமிக்க வைத்திருக்கிறது. ரஜினி படங்களுக்கு வருகிற அதே கூட்டம் அஜீத் படத்திற்கும் வந்தது. இதையடுத்து அடுத்த சூப்பர் ஸ்டார் நாற்காலி யாருக்கு என்ற கேள்வியும், அது குறித்த விமர்சனங்களும் எழ ஆரம்பித்திருக்கிறது கோடம்பாக்கத்தில்.
அஜீத் பட வெற்றியை அவரேதான் முறியடிக்க வேண்டும் என்பது போல இதுவரை இல்லாத அளவுக்கு இந்த படத்தின் தமிழ்நாடு வெளியீட்டு உரிமை விற்கப்பட்டுள்ளதாம். இதன் மதிப்பு மொத்தம் 18 கோடியே 95 லட்சம் என்கிறார்கள் கோடம்பாக்கத்தில்.
பந்தின் வடக்கு பக்கம் காற்றடித்தால் தெற்கு பக்கமும் வீங்கும் என்பது போல, இந்த படத்தின் விலையை கருத்தில் கொண்டு டிக்கெட் விலையை பன் மடங்கு உயர்த்தி விற்க சொல்கிறார்களாம் விநியோகஸ்தர்கள். இதற்கு அநேக தியேட்டர்கள் சம்மதித்தாலும், சென்னையில் இயங்கி வரும் கார்ப்பரேட் தியேட்டர்கள் மட்டும் கைகட்டி வாய் பொத்தி நிற்கிறதாம். அரசு நிர்ணயித்த விலையை தாண்டி விற்க முடியாது என்று இவர்கள் கூறி வருவதால் செய்வதறியாது திகைக்கிறார்களாம் விநியோகஸ்தர்கள்.
இது ஒருபுறம் இருக்க, படம் ஹிட் என்றால் திருப்பதியில் மொட்டை என்று வேண்டியிருந்த டைரக்டர் வெங்கட்பிரபு தனது பிரார்த்தனையை நிறைவேற்றிவிட்டு வந்திருக்கிறார். தயாரிப்பாளர்களுக்கு மொட்டை போட்டே பழகிய சில இயக்குனர்கள் வெங்கட் பிரபுவை பார்த்தாவது மாறுவார்களா?

Trisha has deleted all tweets related to Mankatha.. pavam pullaiya yaro bayamurithitaanga pola...http://www.top10cinema.com/news/1262...aises-mankatha
Exceeding everyone’s expectations – not very often we do have such verdicts marked on films. But Ajith Kumar’s ‘Mankatha’ gains the earnest favours of film critics and box office collections as well. It went onto make a stupendous opening in both multiplexes and single screens across Tamil Nadu. The celebrities in Tamil film industry had even called off a day from shooting to watch the film. Silambarasan, Ashwin Shekar, Bharath and other few actors were in raging excitements to watch film with their fans.
Trisha has tweeted saying, “Ajith Kumar has proved that he is in the hearts of fans. In spite of disbanding his fans club, going with a natural look and choosing a really different role, he has endeavoured with his mission.”
Producer Dhananjayan of UTV Motion Pictures has said, “Ajith Kumar has proved that a film’s success doesn’t go with the fans club.”
Kudoses to the entire team of ‘Mankatha’ as everyone has done a tremendous job.

Thala Ajith has proved many a points here....I can list out some of them...
1. Dirs. ARM, GVM (and who else? and have turned up to watch Mankatha) who don't consider Thala to be in their good books (my opinion and this is due to the ego by these dir or think thala is egoistic) have come on the FD show as reported by Simbu... to see Thala's performance....and his fan base...
2. Many thought that Thala after disbanding the fan clubs, the fans would disband Thala.....but it never happened or will ever happen... Thala Pola Varumaa....
3. Sun Pictures would have been astounded, shocked and surprised by the pre-release hype and hoopla around Thala and Mankatha and never would have thought this much extraordinary business around Mankatha....ultimately they had to buy Thala's 50th film Mankatha when they were avoiding, abusing, and neglecting Thala...
infact there are many...but these are the ones that come to my mind immediately....

Saw the movie today.... Good entertainer from Ajith after a long time... I didn't like Billa but this one is nice... First half is little bit slow and draggy but still has its moments.... Second half moves like a super fast express with lot of twists and the climax is totally surprising... Even trisha looks good on the screen, which I never expected... Arjun is as usual fit as a fiddle... Most of the jokes of premji worked for me... But the movie belongs to one and only Ajith...Looks like he had a lot of fun while acting in the movie... Totally, summa ranagalam panitaar... VP has done a very neat job...

From: Ilayathalapathy Fan on 4th September 2011 08:11 AM [Full View]
Just saw the amazing mankatha The film is completely dominated by ajith the whole way and thala has given a fantastic performance in every single scene... this movie is completely carried on thala's shoulders and at the end arjun is also... given some scope. Premji tries some comedy and makes us laugh a bit but the rest of the cast except were totally wasted In my opinion. Overall VP has given an very entertaining film and is the only director who has used thala to his best potential. Hats of To VP, Thala and last but not least yuvan for giving the perfect background score in every scene. Future directors who want to cast thala in their film should learn from VP on how to utilize thala properly in their movie.
Verdict: Thala hits the bull's eye with a grand 50th... Mangaatha Da

Ajith’sMankatha is smashing box-office records at will. Trade sources say the opening collections are next only to Rajini’s Robot
If Salman Khan’s Bodyguard is rewriting box-office records in Bollywood, then Ajith’s Mankatha is doing the same in Kollywood. According to trade sources, Thalai’s 50th film has taken the biggest opening of the year. Unconfirmed reports also say the film has grossed the second biggest opening ever in Tamil, only after Rajinikanth’s Robot.
Industry watchers say the Venkat Prabhu-directed flick has collected at least Rs 8 crore on the opening day, having had a 93 % opening in over 350-plus screens.
Some theatres in Tamil Nadu had screened shows as early as 5:00 am with 100% attendance, something that has happened only for Rajnikanth’s Endhiran in the
recent past.
Sathyam Cinemas in Chennai had Mankatha as morning show in all their six screens and got 100 per cent collection — again the previous such instance being Robot. At the Mayajaal multiplex on the East Coast Road, all 14 screens showed Mankatha on Ramzan day, with 70 shows a day. All shows were houseful.Though it is too early to tabulate the figures, but Mankatha, in all probability, will be Ajith’s biggest ever hit.
Industry watchers say the film has brought back “the missing crowd that had gone to pursue the other modes of entertainment” to theatres. Like in the old days, Thalai fans had turned up in huge numbers at theatres, indulging in palabhishekam.
When contacted, Ajith said, “Probably, the ‘game’ was felt to be good enough by the audience.”
“It is all because of our Thalai and all of us are his hardcore fans,” says director Venkat Prabhu is excited.
Sun Pictures, however, has been tight-lipped so far when it comes to revealing the collection figures.

. Hope Billa 2 has little stronger storyline.
Man Mr. Ajith just wow simbly one of the best Uncle Hero performance.. ! Its a much needed change for Ajith ! Now I am definetely interested to see what he has in stock for Bill 2
All out gangster movie.. !

Kootti kalichhu paatha kanakku sariya varum
I dare to say here that THALA has surpassed Superstar when it comes to opening.

VP did not compromise anything for Thala 50..his stamp is all over..from the first half which has a lot of strategy,heist,technology,brilliance..it changes into a total action in the second half..lot of chases,gun fights..full action..
the 4 guys were good..enjoyed Premji after a long time,his best surely..Yuvan rocked in bgm..seriya gavanichen this time..super build up in all the high voltage scenes..Arjun was too cool..never had that huge screen space to make his presence felt,and he does that in style with his charm..he is a very important lead of the movie..wonder how did Ajith manage to get all the focus when there are so many leads in the film..only he can i guess...superb performance..every scene..from the smile to the action sequences..awesome..that monologue scene is great..heard its one take..in the end credits..mahat's first scene that is..he will ask Ajith "na dum??..Ajith will kalaichify him by saying "innuru dhaba sollen"...money money money!!!!!!!!!!!!! . super padam pa

Ajith’s Gambler releasing big in AP
Ajith, Arjun, Trisha starrer Gambler is going to have a wide release in Andhra Pradesh. The film’s original version, Mankatha was recently released in Tamil Nadu and it got off to a flying start at box office. Early estimates suggest that the film will be the biggest hit in Ajith’s career. Venkat Prabhu has directed the film and Dayanidhi Alagiri had produced it on Cloud Nine Movies banner and Sun Pictures distributed it. Buoyed by the success of the Tamil version, the Telugu producers who bought the film have decided to release the film with 225 prints in Andhra Pradesh. Bellamkonda Suresh is producing the Telugu version on his Sri Sai Ganesh Productions Pvt Ltd along with Multidimension Entertainments banner. The film is all set to hit the screens on September 9 and interestingly, the producers have decided to release the film’s audio two days after the film’s release.
Yuvan Shankar Raja has composed the music. Andrea, Lakshmi Rai, Premgi, Mahat and Vaibhav play important roles in the film. Gambler is said to be an action entertainer with a backdrop of IPL betting.

Enthiran was very wide release big budget film. But may be (only) opening can be slightly rubbing with enthiran collections. Note that Ajith is said to have a opening(given films like Makatha which is his 50th film and songs are hit). As the movie has got positive results, hopefully collections will continue in coming weekends. Originally Posted by Munsamy

Hi All,
This is chinna, old forum member..I would like to share my Mankatha viewing experience in Bangalore.
Till now i have seen mankatha three times in Bangalore..
1st time on 31st August 4PM show in Innovotive multiplex,Marthahalli with my wife ,theater was houseful and very good experience.
2 nd time on 3rd September,1.30 PM show in Anjan Magadi Road with my Brother in law ,theater was 75% and i enjoyed it very much..But they haven't shown the blooper,
3 rd time on 4th September,4.30 PM Show in Anjan Magadi Road with my wife,daughter(2 year old),Mother in-law,my cousin brother and his wife.But this time surprisingly we couldn't get the ticket in the counter.It was houseful but we managed to get the ticket in block per 100 RS (60 RS, second class ticket). Everybody enjoyed the movie..Theater full of fans sound & claps.My 2 year kid enjoyed the movie,she enjoyed & did dance for vilayadu mankatha and machi open the bottle.This time also they haven't shown the blooper but enjoyed the movie100% with my family.
Note: I could see more kanadigas watching our Thala movie.The theater full of crowds ,passerby looking at the theaters crowd.
Proud of Thala fan.In my past 3 years i haven't seen this much crowd for Thala movie( After 4 days of release)

i loved "Without Ajith, this will be another heist movie. Good movie, but not as entertaining thanks to Ajith’s performance. So, Ajith, you don’t want to be the next Superstar. That chair is still warmed by the 60 year old grandpa’s bum. You don’t want to be the next Kamal. Nobody can. You just be who you are as we saw in this film, a character actor in a leading role, and to quote one of Rajini’s famous lines, be in your own “Tani Vazhi”.
great lines about my icon..its like i am getting all the praises
he is no rajini, he definitely cant be a Kamal ...he is different..lets hope who is the next Ajith question comes up..ok i am trying to pull words from ur mouth..do u agree after M.G.R--SIVAJI..RAJNI-KAMAL...ITS AJITH?

Yeah, it can be more superficial, glamourous and "slick", rather than gritty like this one. It has an original to lean on, so I don't think the success of this film will put much pressure on Billa II.
-
From: raghavendran on 5th September 2011 08:20 AM [Full View]
yes..but kind of get a insecure feel about Chakri..matching the previous film's success is very though..and Ajith is known for his inconsistency..hopefully it turns out to be good..we have seen other actors of his gen give a string of hits..dying to see Ajith do that..just imagine the position he will reach then..

Ajith glowers at us audience and does something that would make Spielberg proud during his Jaws days.
That would have been awsome.In the middle of the film, he goes into a long monologue on plotting certain “deaths” - a one man act that not many of his generation actors can pull off - and he snaps at you. If it was in 3D, it would have given me a stroke. It was that effective. The evilness in him looked real. Ajith the actor has finally found his calling.
I dont know when, where and how Ajith did homework for that scene, that too he did it in Single take seems.Venkatprabhu tweet
We shot the interval block today!!! So when u see the interval scene in the Theater!!! Remember this was the scene Thala cooked biriyani for us
Kudos to Venkat Prabhu in bringing out the best in Ajith. I dismissed the Billa prequel idea whereby the second Ajith was the best in the first Billa. But after seeing this, I really look forward to the badass dude’s formative years in the prequel. Just don’t give me the near heartattack like you did here, dude.

groucho nice review..
Avaru adicha kings-la enakku 1 full pocket izhuthuttu throat dry aana feeling...Lifelong smoking has put gravel in his voice, and it was most effective in Mankatha. In this film, he is not a lover boy, not a mute desperado, neither is he a stylish anti hero. He is a tubby, greasy, smoking, boozing, cheating swindling, devious suspended cop who is only eyeing after money. To quote George Thorogood, he was bad to the bone.
Ajith is no different. More often than not, he was not sure what kind of actor he is going to become. While others opted to become Rajini’s chair dusters or six-packed bipedal, Ajith often just relied on the directors to pull him to this direction and that, and occasionally making personal statements on things affecting his career (and intertwined personal) life.He, in my opinion, is going to fulfil the need for more three dimensional, shady characters played by leading stars that has been lacking in the industry. Thanks to Venkat Prabhu, the director who also wrote this film, and what appears to be early success of this film, in future we can see Ajith fulfilling that need.
.Only difference is, you find yourself rooting for a sleazebag. You find yourself biting your nails figuring out what the unkempt, gray haired, cigarette chomping slob is up to next. Yes, the same scumbag played by Ajith. It was a brave effort, to push the gear, nay as the pilots say, “balls to the wall”, attempt in acting and yet still not showing the limitation he already had

In a defining moment before the interval of Venkat Prabhu directed Mankatha, Ajith glowers at us audience and does something that would make Spielberg proud during his Jaws days. I jumped in my seat, never thinking that this actor that I once dismissed as pretty boy would move me, literally.
It has been a long journey for him appearing as, yes, a pretty boy with buggy eyes in Amaravathi, which I must have watched and dismissed as another pallid romance movie, for actor Ajith Kumar, now appearing in his fiftieth film, Mankatha, an event which was visibly celebrated during the title sequence.
Funny though, in the earlier days, actors would wait until their 100th films before celebrating it. Times are much slower, prolific actors are not heroes or leading stars, they are usually comedians. The generation X actors had to settle for lesser films per year, sometimes per two years, and mull about their box office charm before deciding their next venture.
Ajith is no different. More often than not, he was not sure what kind of actor he is going to become. While others opted to become Rajini’s chair dusters or six-packed bipedal, Ajith often just relied on the directors to pull him to this direction and that, and occasionally making personal statements on things affecting his career (and intertwined personal) life.
His weakness has always been his voice, that childish drawl that often killed many important dialogues, if at all those existed in his films. Heck, in his first film he was dubbed by another artist. Subsequently, it was when he is quieter, like the mute character in Valee, or films where he has minimal dialogue like Billa or Aasal (yeah, I liked this film, sue me), where he was effective. But all that is gone now.
Lifelong smoking has put gravel in his voice, and it was most effective in Mankatha. In this film, he is not a lover boy, not a mute desperado, neither is he a stylish anti hero. He is a tubby, greasy, smoking, boozing, cheating swindling, devious suspended cop who is only eyeing after money. To quote George Thorogood, he was bad to the bone.

He, in my opinion, is going to fulfil the need for more three dimensional, shady characters played by leading stars that has been lacking in the industry. Thanks to Venkat Prabhu, the director who also wrote this film, and what appears to be early success of this film, in future we can see Ajith fulfilling that need.
The film itself is a neatly packaged retelling of chaos. Or heist went wrong and the chaos ensued. Chaos first orchestrated by Ajith’s Vinayak character, and what ensues when he lost control of it. It is not a brilliant script, but it warranted enough scenes to keep us, as the cliché goes, edge of the seat. Or in my case, corner of my seat as I was seated at extreme right (not bad crowd at a sleepy neighbourhood cinema).
Besides setbacks like poor comedy from Premgi, unnecessary songs and dances, too many shootouts (who’s shooting at whom is a secret only Venkat Prabhu knows), choppy fight scenes and a poor leading actress who gives tough competition to the timber industry, the film is as engaging as the recent KO that I enjoyed immensely.
Only difference is, you find yourself rooting for a sleazebag. You find yourself biting your nails figuring out what the unkempt, gray haired, cigarette chomping slob is up to next. Yes, the same scumbag played by Ajith. It was a brave effort, to push the gear, nay as the pilots say, “balls to the wall”, attempt in acting and yet still not showing the limitation he already had.
Other cast members gave a considerably wonderful input, especially Arjun, who knew that we are going to see him as the same, good, disciplined heroic cop that he played hundreds of time. That what made the twist in the climax more surprising and entertaining.
Without Ajith, this will be another heist movie. Good movie, but not as entertaining thanks to Ajith’s performance. So, Ajith, you don’t want to be the next Superstar. That chair is still warmed by the 60 year old grandpa’s bum. You don’t want to be the next Kamal. Nobody can. You just be who you are as we saw in this film, a character actor in a leading role, and to quote one of Rajini’s famous lines, be in your own “Tani Vazhi”.

Mankatha - 30C+ budget + YSR + Ajith + Trisha + VP.

Ajith’s super hit Mankatha has been dubbed into Telugu as Gambler and will be releasing on September 9.
Mankatha will be the first Ajith film to be dubbed into Telugu!
The recent success of Tamil films dubbed into Telugu like Ko, Kanchana,Naan Mahaan Alla and Mynaa in Andhra Pradesh made producer Telugu producer Bellamkonda Suresh to take gamble with Mankatha.
Gambler will hit 225 screens across AP on September 9, the biggest number of screens ever for a film dubbed from Tamil to Telugu

Enthiran screen is more than double of Mankatha, right?
even if it cross.. Rajini will be happy for Ajith... they share good rapport..
it is obvious that Ajith has good friends circle in cine industry.. most of them will be happy for him..

I had a day off on Friday, so I thought I will give it a go (despite my hesitation to watch non Rajni films in Cinema) . I am neither a Ajith fan or VJ fan.
The film was OK, the most thing I liked about the Movie was YSR's BGM ! followed by Arjun's stunts and Ajith Acting towards the end, the drawback of the films were
1) too Long
2) Ajith should avoid comedy scenes, he is really not funny is such scenes
3) Trisha and Ajith combo was a disaster, she looked more like his sister than girlfriend
Apart from that you can watch it once.

I have some cons. after watching the move 2nd time...
1. Why an intro song right after the intro credits?
2. Heroines have been wasted, they could have saved huge amounts by not using them at all in movie.
3. Silly dance moves.. in Ballelakka song... (same thing happened in Chennai 600000000000000028 "Jalsa Pannungada", Saroja " Kodana Kodi", Goa "Vaalibaa Vaa")
4. Premji as a hacker ...not believable... do you automatically become a hacker by wearing glasses??
5. calling nick names in the movie.... "thala"... "action king"... why not just be Vinayak and Prithviraj...

Satisfied with Ajith movie after long time. Fantastic and entertaining.
Only Ajith can do this.Interval block was too good and climax was a surprise.
Thanks for VP ..he didn't make Ajith as good guy at the end.
Intro is not impressive and songs are waste which is the case for all Ajith movies.
Ajith should force MD's to give blockbuster songs.

Watched it, finally. Weekday ku semma crowd. Script was not all that engaging but didn't mind the first half that people have been complaining about, thanks to Ajith. The writing of Ajith's character itself is inconsistent and VP's trademark of merging the funny into the narrative comes in the way of the plot here also (got to admit that the "meh" moment worked, though )
Songs - disappointing, speed-breakers. BGM was not bad (WTF was that piece when the Aravind character is shot?? Didn't expect this from Yuvan/VP)

I've said this before, I'm not a fan of Ajith's acting but he kind of breezed through the first half. To pull of this kind of magic at the BO (usually opening next only to Superstar but looks like the scale of this one is up several notches, going by the posts here and media) after disbanding fan clubs, sharing screen space, playing a grey haired 40 year old "negative" character!!

Mankatha- Strictly No Rules.
http://rshiromi.tumblr.com/post/9835210696
That’s exactly what the movie follows.
Last night I watched Mankatha and this is my review on it. I promise not to ruin anything for anyone who still hasn’t seen it yet.
This film has recieved so much publication and so much hype because its Ajith’s 50th film. Also, this film is directed by Venkat Prabhu, who has given many humourous entertainers already (Chennai 600028, Saroja, Goa). To be honest, I was a little “iffy” about how the Venkat Prabhu team and Ajith would collaborate…but this is how I felt after seeing the film.
This review is not influenced by my love for Thala; infact, I was a little disappointed with the films he was dishing out lately (Asal, Aegan). Since this was his 50th film, I was hoping he would do something daring, do something extreme, do something different…and HE DID.
Right from Ajith’s entry into the film, this film is non-stop action. My mom isn’t one to love action movies, so from the first fight in the movie (plus Arjun’s role) I thought my mom would hate the movie (that didn’t happen, in fact she loved it). The movie is full of thrills, it keeps you on the edge of your seat, and it’s badass. I seriously feel the word badass was made up to define this movie.
So let’s get to the movie. Ajith has done something completely different in this film- he dons the role of a villain. In this film, he isn’t the hero. He smokes a lot, he drinks a lot, and he will go to any length for money. As Ajith says in the film, it’s all about the “money, money, money” and -deleted- After seeing films like Billa, Asal, and Aegan, I thought Ajith was beginning to follow some of the other actors in the industry who do the same role multiple times. I’m glad he did something like this. His performance as the devious, dark sided Vinayak Mahadevan, a suspended police officer, needs to be praised. His villianous laughter, right before the interval, gave me the shivers.
I’ve been hearing fantastic reviews about this film and then again there are the odd ones who disagree. To be honest, I don’t understand why people complain that Ajith does the same role over and over again, and then when he does something different like this, they complain that they don’t like his role and that they don’t like the movie.
This first half of the film is light-hearted and has that typical Venkat Prabhu touch. The second half of the film, Ajith dominates. It’s fast-paced, exciting, thrilling, and keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Other than Ajith, the other hero of this film is Venkat Prabhu, the director. After making films, such as Chennai 600028, Saroja, and Goa, that were light-hearted, funny entertainers, he has stepped up his game, BIG TIME. I was hyped up about the film because 1. I’m an Ajith fan and 2. all the publicity it recieved. However, I didn’t expect something this great. Awesome job Venkat Prabhu!
This film recieved so much publicity because it’s a multi-starrer. The other star in this film was “Action King” Arjun (BTW, I loved the pun used in the film!). As the “action king”, Arjun does his part well. He plays a sophisticated, suave cop who is hell-bent on getting rid of illegal gambling activities. I definitely think he was the right person to play this role.
The other actors in this film, Premgi Amaren, Vaibhav Reddy, Mahat Raghavendra, and Ashwin Kakumanu, did their roles well. Premgi and Vaibhav are already common faces to most Tamil Cinema watchers; they’ve been apart of the Venkat Prabhu team from Chennai 600028 (Vaibhav from Saroja). Ashwin played a minor role in Gautham Menon’s Nadunisi Naygal but the film almost went unnoticed. Mahat was the only fresh face, making Mankatha his cinema debut. And I must say, what a way to enter the industry. Premgi did his role well, his comedy had the entire theatre cheering, whistling, and clapping (so Premgi, ignore those haters). Mahat, Ashwin, and Vaibhav essayed their roles naturally and effortlessly.
The actresses in this film, Trisha, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai, and Andrea Jeremiah, didn’t really have a role to play. They had minor roles, and mostly were just used to help the action plot. It was a little disappointing, but I think that if they had major roles, the storyline would’ve gotten complicated and lost.
You would think that in a film that contains as much action as this, it would be almost impossible to have comedy. But Venkat Prabhu seems to always find a way. I love that he never brings in comedians to do their bits on the side; he uses the actors and the characters he already has and provides us with comedy through them. This film contains many puns, if you’re an avid movie-goer like me, you’ll be sure to get them all. Venkat Prabhu weaved the comedy into his script effortlessly. Nothing was unnecessary, everything came at the right time.
This was the first time I sat in a theatre where people whistled, screamed, clapped, and cheered. Overall, a job very well done. A must watch film. Mankatha da!
AND WATCH OUT FOR THE TWIST ENDING.

MANKATHA - strictly No Rules...
watched for one & only ........ "King of Opening" Ajith ..
- Ajith does a one man show ... in performance wise, one of his recent best..
- few Ajith fans here say it is better than "Valee" Ajith.. vinayak does a lot of talking, & improved dialogue delivery - he fights - dances - some mokkai comedies.. lots of hardwork.. but valee is a silent performer.. i'll give 50-50
- stylish, Mass & whatever.. liked his screen presence & cool performance..
- the bad word for Laxmi Rai .. i suggest censor board not to mute in these type of scenes.. it is clearly visible.. or they can add black mark to cover the mouth too

About the film...
- If u take out Ajith from the film.. it is like a game of chess without King.. i.e., Nothing.. few pawns & a Bishop (Arjun)
- 1st half was slow & not engaging much.. lot of discontinuities & the main source for this is.. Venkat Prabhu wants to sell this film as Ajith film.. still wanted to have mini intro's - equal screen space to allakai characters like Arjun & the boys.. i would agree if he shared the screen with Arjun alone
- right from Ch-28, i hate Premgi & his f*kng <mangatha effect > korangu sestai's.. he has opening song "murattukaalai song" but i laughed for a couple of his scenes..
- of late.. my fav songs before watching the film were "nanbane" & "ballelakka" .. songs are chopped ..
- Ajith's looks incosistent.. sometimes he looks like Aegan.. sometimes his looks were dashing.. but the one in last scene
- Arjun.. okay.. but stereotyped acting like his template.. "hEy.. everybody" (in Mudhalvan).. for this type of allakai police, Sarath would be the first choice.. Nats might be busy before election
- Anjali in the song.. Trisha.. not bad.. Andrea .. & Latchumi Rai.. VP tries to have a big star cast.. adding a lot of ingredients alone will not make a food good
- good that vaada binleda doesn't turn out another "kudhiraikku theriyum" from Aasal.. CG work was nice
- in one scene more Ajith will be showed in a continuous sequence.. nice idea
- lot of shootouts in 2nd half.. got tired after a point... & the twists.. who is with whom.. first I thought in a more positive way..
- when shootout was going on VP was interested in showing Ajith.. who doesn't care bullets flying across him
- expected Mankatha remix in some chase sequence, as shown in trailer.. doesn't happen
- Interval block was good.. again spoiled by Premgi in the end..
- since it's a film by Fan for other Fans.. I have to take.. Thala - nalla bike Otturar - Action King - isaignani paattu.. & usage of their old dialogues.. like Anjali's nejamathan solriya - but, periya vasanth & co to the owner was LOL
- I always believe Ajith can be both Mass + Class + Style + Act... he proves here.. VP could have done much better
MANKATHA - Strictly No Rules & Strictly Only Once... just for the MAN - Ajith...
Ajith, please don't join hands with directors like venkat prabhu who doesn't come out of their team & can't think something new without them in the script
I wish to see Ajith team up with SJ Surya, the forgotten director.. even he might have forgotten his directorial skills..

Mankatha (Tam) – 'Thala' Reigns Supreme!
Ajith's 50th movie could very well be the biggest blockbuster of them all says Mukesh Venu
http://www.yentha.com/news/view/4/13839The birth of the silver screen also gave birth to an argument, especially in a nation like ours – what defines a good movie, the artistic heights featured or the entertainment values offered? But when these two divergent features outshine their own definitions to bring to life a movie that gets embraced by the masses, all the notes, points, rules and norms get thrown out of the window as the viewer just sits back watching in awe the reel unroll its pictures onto the big screen, to give the people a film that is worth the time, exertion and every penny that has been spent. And of course not forgetting the hunger to be fed with a full fledged mass entertainer. 'Mankatha' is clearly hands down a winner at the box office
The much hyped movie ranks 50th in the list on the celebrated decade and a half long career of the ultimate superstar Ajith aka Thala. Directed by Ventkat Prabhu, who, after doing remarkable films like 'Chennai 600028', 'Saroja', and 'Goa', still needed that one monumental film to thrust his position forward to be among the frontline directors in Tamil moviedom. And ‘Mankatha’ has done exactly that for him. Those who have been keenly waiting for the storyline, turn back right now, because with 'Mankatha' the story does not take the centre stage. To put it briefly: Ajith plays the bad cop, and 'Action King' Arjun plays the good cop, and in between them is Rs.500 crores of betting money. That being said, don't ever underestimate the ability of Venkat Prabhu who has penned down the script for the film, while sitting in the director's chair.
It takes an immense amount of focus and contemporary wisdom regarding the pulse of the fans to make a big budget movie ‘click’. Neither is it effortless as it might seem to script a story tailor-made to fit a superstar in the lead role.
But the movie is all about Ajith and Arjun and of course, about the fans who ardently cheer for their idols all through the movie. While Arjun has a far less screen time compared to Ajith, his mere charisma, and screen presence elevates him to a position bigger than a superstar. Background score by Yuvan Shankar Raja befits the pace of the story and the technology used to portray the film on canvas stands on par with the latest in terms of excellence. The confidence Ajith shows with the film, appearing before the masses true to his age, with greying hair and beard, has just brought him tons of respect and love from his diehard fans.
'I turn 40 next May', he replies to an onscreen enquiry made by Jayaprakash (as 'Arumugha Chettiyar' in the film); and in turn is met with the remark – 'life begins at forty for men'. The impact that 'Mankatha' is going to make on Ajith's film career couldn't be described better.
Trisha and Leskshmi Rai play eye candy roles in the film, portraying the characters of lead heroine and second heroine respectively. Vaibhav Reddy, Premji Amaren, Mahat Raghavendra and Ashwin Kakumanu also play major roles in the film. But after spending 150 minutes on 'Mankatha' at the theatre, going through the stylish picturisations, flashy augmentation of all the lead characters and a stupendous climax, the only names you are going to hear while exiting the theatre is the fans' chant of 'Thala' Ajith, and 'Action King' Arjun. The film is definitely made for the fans, who find it hard to contain themselves on their seats while their idols set the screen on fire.
It is rare that the term 'classic' is attached to mass entertainers, but 'Mankatha' can be referred to as an 'entertainment classic' and is going to be remembered for a very long time. It will prove to do for Ajith what 'Padayappa' did for Rajnikanth 'Shehenshah' for Amitabh Bachaan and 'Aram Thampuran' for Mohanlal. It wouldn't stand justified if 'Mankatha' is rated in this review, because 'Mankatha' has already been rated, signed, sealed and shouldered by fans all across the globe.
You wouldn’t want to miss this game of 'Mankatha'!

now its from ajith and people(Mostly fans) started enjoying this. really good that fans are toatally satisfied.

Watched Mankatha @ Inox last Saturday... Mostly family audience and the atmosphere was electrifying. Watching a film with 100% occupancy is a different experience altogether.
I liked the first half more than the second. VP did a commendable job in the first half. Even the thinking gone behind 'Thala 50' logo stood out. But I personally feel the same fizz was not there in the second half. However Ajith carried the film on his shoulders and that made all the difference. This should be Ajith's best performance only next to Vaali. VP should have allowed Ajith with more screenspace than showing his usual gang. It was bit annoying to see the likes of Mahat and Premji dancing in the Pool with Lakshmi Rai. Esp Mahat.. Over scene,,,
U1's bgm was gr8 with the theme music being the pick. I didnt like the songs though. Such movies dont even require them.

UK BOX OFFICE -The Asian battle
With religious holiday Eid this year falling on a Wednesday (Orange Wednesday, in cinema speak), several distributors chose to release major films on the date, notably Bodyguard. Recently a film of the same name in the southern Indian Malayalam language, and again in Tamil, it's now a full-on Hindi action romantic comedy musical, toplined by Bollywood megastar Salman Khan. The opening five-day weekend of £840,000 is the second biggest ever for a Bollywood film, behind only Shah Rukh Khan starrer My Name Is Khan, which debuted with £936,000 (also including previews) back in February 2010.
Also out for Eid were Tamil film Mankatha and Pakistan's Bol, grossing £110,000 and £93,000 respectively, including previews. All three titles posted healthy averages thanks to relatively low screen counts, and Bodyguard at Birmingham Vue Star City was the top engagement of the whole market, followed by the same film at Cineworld Ilford. The Inbetweeners Movie at Showcase Bluewater came third, followed by Bodyguard at Cineworld Feltham.

‘Mankatha’ roars in the UK, Malaysia, Singapore :
The Ajith starrer has been received very well abroad. Will it break the record set by Rajinikanth in Robot and Salman Khan in Bodyguard?
Thala Ajith’s 50th film Mankatha has received rave reviews and it has translated into good collections at the box office, not only in India, but also in the UK, Malaysia and Singapore. The actor has been highly appreciated for his first-time negative role in a major film, and his fans are delighted to see him in a new avatar. If reports are to be believed, Mankatha has broken all opening day records and falls behind only Rajinikanth’s Robot.On the day of release, the UK collections stood at £110,000. In Chennai, too, five days after release, the average theatre occupancy was 95 percent and collections stood at Rs. 1,79,35,278 from 774 shows. Well, looks like the Eid release has been lucky for Ajith, just like for Salman Khan’s Bodyguard in Bollywood!

Watched this weekend. A good entertainment. I didn't feel bored, but at the same time it was not that gripping. But I liked that twist at the end.
I have watched only few Ajith movies starting from Aasai, Kadhal Kottai (I still could not come out of that terror), Kandu konden Kandu konden (my favorite), Vaali and few others (in theatres). To be honest, I was quite dismissive about his earlier movies, so didn't have much interest to watch his other movies too. Even I went with that frame of mind into this movie. But he has put all my speculation to dust, shame and rest. Through this movie, Ajith has shown tremendous character and maturity. Definitely has grown tall and matured. It seems he has come a long and hard way Hope he continues his journey in this fashion.
I totally agree with what grouch posted in his blog. Wonderful and brilliant article grouch! Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Another ambiguous rather amusing thing was that particular steel chain Ajith sports throughout the movie. Looks like a single profile, but splits into two exactly similar profiles. Like the same card which is drawn in the beginning and that brings victory in the end distinguished only by different symbols.

I liked the first half more than the second. VP did a commendable job in the first half. Even the thinking gone behind 'Thala 50' logo stood out. But I personally feel the same fizz was not there in the second half. However Ajith carried the film on his shoulders and that made all the difference. This should be Ajith's best performance only next to Vaali. VP should have allowed Ajith with more screenspace than showing his usual gang. It was bit annoying to see the likes of Mahat and Premji dancing in the Pool with Lakshmi Rai. Esp Mahat.. Over scene,,,
U1's bgm was gr8 with the theme music being the pick. I didnt like the songs though. Such movies dont even require them.

Technology is to blame for this piracy, says Venkat Prabhu
http://www.deccanchronicle.com/tablo...kat-prabhu-919Monday was a disastrous day for the entire Mankatha team — including its hero Ajith and Radhika Sarath Kumar, who distributed the film in Tamil Nadu.
The film, produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri and released through Sun Pictures in the festival holiday weekend, witnessed an unprecedented opening at all centres. A multiplex owner even said that it crossed the collection of Enthiran — the biggest budget film to be produced in Tamil cinema.
Till Sunday, the going was so smooth that everyone was happy and in celebratory mode! Then came the rude shock — when all of a sudden, Mankatha was up and running in — hold your breath — almost 1300 websites and some of the pirated versions were of crystal-clear quality.
This is not the first time that Radikaa Sarath Kumar is facing this problem. Last year, her film Jagghubhai, which had Sarath in the lead, was released on internet even before its theatre release. Radhika and director KS Ravikumar literally broke down as they wondered whether piracy could ever be controlled.
The entire film industry, including Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan, came out in support.
“Jagghubhai was a different case — we found out later that the film was leaked from the place where it was edited. But Mankatha’s leakage is unimaginable! 1,300 websites! We have approached the cyber crime department and lodged a complaint. But I wonder how this menace can be curbed!” rued Radikaa to DC.
An upset director Venkat Prabhu when contacted said, “I am speechless! Where is our technology leading us? My producers have acted swiftly and are taking the necessary steps”.
A close source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, informed DC that pirated copies could be taken only when the print was sent for FMS. The tech savvy Tamils all over the globe indulge in such activities, hopping from one international server to another to avoid identification.

Guys, did you see any other references to other stars than these:
Kamal: Wardrobe poster, the romAns
Rajini: Wardrobe poster, Raman Andalum (tribute to Raja too), any goddamn thing Premgi supposed to be spoofing.
Vijay: Movie playing in the theater
Surya: Sanjay Ramasami reference
Of course, lots of Hindi movie posters, but those are props.
Anything else?

BODYGUARD has fetched an electrifying start in the international markets as well. In fact, the film has already overtaken DABANGG's international gross of US$ 5 million to become Salman's biggest grossing film ever in Overseas. BODYGUARD stood at US$ 5.3 million in the international markets, till Sunday … BOL got affected due to the BODYGUARD wave internationally, but despite the absence of big names, the film has recorded better collections than several biggies released earlier this year … Tamil film MANKATHA has fared exceptionally well … 3 IDIOTS is superb in South Korea.
Weekend: September 2 - 4, 2011.
U.K. BOX-OFFICE
BODYGUARD: In its opening weekend, the film has collected £ 8,39,833 [approx. Rs. 6.21 crores] on 51 screens, with the per screen average working out to £ 16,467. Note:- 6-day weekend. Addendum:- BODYGUARD is nearing Salman's biggest hit in U.K. - HUM AAPKE HAIN KOUN [UK Pounds 1.05 million] set in 1994. HUM AAPKE HAIN KOUN was one of the first Hindi films to hit the 1 million Pound mark in U.K. Salman will break his own record after 17 years in U.K.
MANKATHA [Tamil]: In its opening weekend, the film has collected £ 1,10,383 [approx. Rs. 81.72 lacs] on 16 screens, with the per screen average working out to £ 6,899.
BOL: In its opening weekend, the film has collected £ 93,290 [approx. Rs. 69.07 lacs] on 22 screens, with the per screen average working out to £ 4,240. Note:- 6-day weekend.

Mankatha: Close game
http://www.thehindu.com/arts/cinema/article2431938.eceMankatha”, Venkat Prabhu's game, is not a battle between the good and the bad. It is rather a battle between the bad and the worst. Fair play goes for a toss as the tagline “Strictly no rules” promises. You have got to hand it to Ajith; no other hero of his time might have accepted this role, let alone a golden jubilee venture.
Plot
“Mankatha” starts of with four youngsters who want to make a quick buck. When they come to know about the whereabouts of a huge amount of money involved in IPL betting, they sketch a plan to get away with the money. Little do they know that they are not the only people behind this money.
Enters Vinayak Mahadhevan (Ajith), a suspended police officer offering to help them, in return for a share in the loot. The heist is planned and executed to perfection. All is well until now when people start showing their true colours. A cat and mouse game ensues between all those involved which leads to a stunning climax that works big time and also breaks all preconceived notions in Tamil cinema.
Ajith as Vinayak Mahadhevan spews venom on screen. It is sheer delight to see him play the bad man to the core. He has had a blast shooting this one. Watch out for the bloopers as the credits roll to understand this.
Arjun is the perfect foil and looks refreshing on screen unlike his recent releases. Premgi's antics are becoming a bit repetitive. Vaibhav, Mahath and the guy who plays the young cop are adequate. The four lead female actror — Trisha, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai and Andrea — don't have much to do in this guy flick.
Technicalities
The Venkat-Yuvan combo rarely disappoints and “Mankatha” is no exception. But the songs do hamper the pace of this action thriller. Venkat could have easily done away with the two duets in the first half. But the theme music is a scream. The superbly choreographed stunt sequences have been captured well by Sakthi Saravanan's lens.
Mankatha has its drawbacks. While it will work with its target audience of youngsters (Ajith fans in particular), it virtually has nothing for the family and women.
Nothing about the modus operandi of betting is shown. Logical loopholes are many, masked only by Ajith's screen presence.
Venkat Prabhu in his first movie outside his comfort zone hasn't disappointed.
Bottomline: “Mankatha” is definitely not the cracker of a movie one expected from the trailers. But it is definitely a decent one-time watch for the regular audience and a treat for thala fans. Going by the initial euphoria and the absence of other biggies, “Mankatha” should be one of the highest grossers of the year.

http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...-07-09-11.htmlTrisha is fed up of people quizzing her about her tiny role in Mankatha. The actress said that she has absolutely no regrets about doing the film as she chose to do it as a fan and not a typical actress. It was Ajith's 50th film and she has always been an Ajith fan so it was great fun being a part of this project.
Trisha applauded Ajith's decision to play a proper negative character and said that it was gutsy move that deserved respect and this is the mark of a true Superstar and hence it was an honor to work with him on this undertaking.

Link - http://chennaionline.com/movies/cine...-super-hit.colAjith’s ‘Mankatha’ all set to become a super-hit
Actor Ajith’s latest film ‘Mankatha’ has opened to a tremendous response from his fans and the general public. The film is the landmark 50th film in his career spanning close to two decades. Ajith’s last couple of films in ‘Aegan’ and ‘Asal’ didn’t do as well as his fans would have expected and as such, the clamour among his fans in anticipation of the release of ‘Mankatha’ was something that was seen to be believed.
The rates of the few tickets which were sold in ‘black’ on the opening two days were almost equal to that of superstar Rajini’s ‘Enthiran: The Robot’. Reports say that fans and the public didn’t think twice in dishing out money to the tune of Rs.300 to Rs.500 for a single ticket to watch the film on the first two days. The fact that Ajith is playing a full-time ‘negative’ role for the first time has only upped the craze of his fans.
[b]Trade circles point out that the collections in the first two days was a whopping Rs.2.8 crores, which augurs well for the film’s run at least for the next couple of weeks. Everything points out to the film becoming a super-duper hit in the coming weeks. The moment Sun Pictures entered the fray and made it clear that ‘Mankatha’ would be released on 31st August, at least 2-3 films which were lined up for release on 2nd September have now been postponed by a fortnight to escape the ‘onslaught’ of Mankatha.[b]

Link - http://chennaionline.com/movies/movi...--Mankatha.colMovie Review : 'Mankatha'
Cast: Ajith Kumar, Arjun, Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Anjali, Andrea Jermaiah, Premgi Amaren, Vaibhav Reddy, Jayaprakash, Kainaat Arora and others
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja
Cinematography: Sakthi Saravanan
Direction: Venkatprahu
Producer: Dayanidhi Azhagiri & Vivek Rathnavel
Ajith has dared to experiment with a negative character in his landmark 50th film. He has the guts to appear on screen with gray hair and grayer shades in his character. He has done it with grace and inimitable style.
Director Venkatprabhu presents a story related to his beloved game cricket. He has chosen not to present the game as a show piece but as a means to launder lot of money in illegal ways. Prabhu touches upon the dirty games played off the field in the name of betting, which is not legal in the country. However, the director hasn’t bothered to look into the root-cause of the menace. Instead he concentrates on the war between various groups to grab the betting money being transferred during IPL final.
Mankatha (meaning a sort of gamble), set in Mumbai talks about the underworld groups operating in betting market. The movie opens with Mumbai police attempting to kill a person (Arvind) accused of a crime. Vinayak Madhavan (Ajith) enters and saves the accused by killing the police.
Sanjana (Trisha), daughter of Arumugam Chettiar (Jayaprakash), falls for Vinayak and introduces him to her father. Sanjana doesn’t know that her father is an underworld gang leader involved in betting and gambling on cricket matches.
Saving Arvind gets Ajit a period of suspension from performing his cop duties but ends up in earning the goodwill of Chettiar as Arvind is working for him.
Chettiyar finds himself in a tight spot as he has to drum up funds to the tune of Rs. 500 crores to be kept as betting money during the IPL finals. A special police squad headed by ‘action king’ Arjun whose mission is to curb betting and claim the money watches him closely. Vaibhav, a faithful man in Chettiar’s gang, turns a black sheep to grab huge money and settle in a foreign land with his wife Anjali. He gets help from a tainted police officer and a brainy IIT graduate (Premji Amaran). Later Vinayak joins them and the game gets hotter.
Vinayak’s team outsmarts Chettiar’s plan to land the money in a safe place. The team loots the money successfully and keeps it in a secret place. Chettiyar desperately searches for the culprits and so does the special squad. Things get worse when Premji decides to take all the money with the help of another gang member and a call girl Sona (Lakshmi Rai). Now Vinayak and the police officer hunt for Premji and co while the police and Chettiar’s gang hunt for all the looters. Finally it boils down a bloddy clash between Vonayak and Arjun. What transpires at the end forms the rest of the story.
Ajith looks stylish and enacts his negative role with ease. His portrayal of greediness and love for money is worth watching. He also scores well in romantic and comic sequences. Playing a police officer is a cakewalk for Arjun and he proves his worth in such a role. Trisha shines in a small part. She looks beautiful in Vaada Bin Leda song. Lakshmi Rai, sizzles in a small but negative character. Anjali and Andrea are thoroughly wasted.
Jayaprakash shows his caliber and Premji provides some comic relief. Vaibhav and Aravind are quite effective.
Sakthi Saravanan’s cinematography is one of the highlights of the film. Yuvan Shankar Raja has provides some peppy numbers (Vilaiyaadu Mankatha) and a couple of melodies. His background score makes the proceedings livelier.
Director Venkatprabhu presents the movie in an interesting manner making use of the strengths of his lead characters. Though the first half moves slowly, the second half compensates. The climax is surprising. The looting operation looks unconvincing but the twists within the script are okay.
The tagline says “Strictly no rules”. Venkatprabhu justifies this statement perfectly but he has also thrown away all the values involving public money, smuggling, greediness, and brutal killings for money. Venkatprabhu’s portrayal celebrates the victory of the protagonist and his close associate, who are nothing but hard core criminals. There is no wrong in portraying negative characters in the lead but the director must maintain a distance from his characters. You can make anti social elements as your central characters but you can’t celebrate their triumph. Venkat doesn’t even bother to show why they behave in such a manner.
Moreover, he doesn’t care to look into the intricacies of betting network. You talk about betting but you don’t show what is betting and how it takes place successfully. Strange but what can you expect from a Tamil movie, which is not known for meticulous homework?
Despite these flaws Mankatha turns out to be a decent entertainer thanks to the fast paced second half, unexpected climax, and Ajith.

Ajith is emperor of opening!
Ajith’s 50th golden jubilee film Mankatha has broken many myths. The Venkat Prabhu directed entertainer has taken an earth shaking opening worldwide.
Mankatha is said to have garnered an estimated whopping Rs 25.2 Crore net, from 370 odd screens in Tamil Nadu during the Ramzan-Vinayaga Chathurthi big five day weekend (August 31 to September 4).
The film as per trade pundits is likely to net (after deducting entertainment tax) an awesome Rs 30 Crore in its first week! Mankatha will become the second highest opener in history of Tamil cinema after Superstar Rajinikanth’s Enthiran which netted Rs 39.5 Crore in its first week from Tamil Nadu.
The main reason for this phenomenal opening is Ajith. Remember, three months back he disbanded his fan club, still he could manage such a gigantic opening riding on the goodwill of his silent fan base. There was a sympathy wave across Tamil Nadu for Ajith, a star who never tried to build his fan clubs for making future political moves or use the media to create an aura around him.
The loyalty and devotion of his fans across the world has made Mankatha take such a huge opening. There is something in Thala as Ajith is affectionately called by his fans, which attracts all sections of the audiences and it worked perfectly as the film was marketed as a solo release during a five-day festival weekend.
Added to that in a state where politics and cinema go hand- in- hand, the ruling Jayalalithaa government did not interfere in the release of Mankatha produced by her arch-rival and former Chief Minister Karunanidhi’s grandson Dhyanidhi Alagiri and marketed by Kalanithi Maran
Ajith, has proved with Mankatha that he commands the biggest opening of the season. That's star power for you. Method acting be damned. People love to come and watch the actor on screen and does not mind whether he plays the bad guy who is mean and malevolent, takes girls for a ride or smokes and drinks on screen!
He has reinvented the Tamil film mass hero image with Mankatha and the audiences simply loved it, as proved by the box-office.
The critics can eat crow, because bad reviews or lack of pre-release publicity hardly matters at the box-office if it is a Thala film. He keeps aloof and is never seen at public functions, not even at the audio launch of his films!
The star has also kept away from the lucrative ad world and does not endorse any product, nor can you see him giving television bytes! Ajith is the only star in the country who refuses to promote or endorse his films, as he has said in many interviews- “My film will do the talking”!
Today, Ajith is the clear number two at the Tamil Nadu box-office, thanks to his gargantuan opening. Trade pundits say today Ajith power at the Tamil Nadu box-office is second only to superstar Rajinikanth. Why? The money invested in an Ajith film comes back to the investors at a faster rate than any other star.
Vinayak Mahadevan the character the actor plays in Mankatha echoes similar sentiments - “It’s money,money, money”.

naettthu total disappointment...
pannaadai pasanga kaal vaasi padattha cut pannittaanga...
the movie ran only for around 2 hrs 10 min here... they showed none of the stunts... all cut...
veettukku vandhu online'la check pannaa, oru cut panna block mattum 8 min odudhu... like ajith calls arjun... next scene this guy was shot... could not understand who killed, why he was killed etc.,
so i did not want to write anything unless i see the complete movie... benefit of doubt to the batsman...
but paattha varai...
1. ajith looked awesome... though every said he played a bad ass, i never felt i was watching a villain there... and never felt he was doing anything bad..
2. BGM was awesome... except a few places which BK mentioned... lol
3. songs were super waste
4. ajith rocked in the machi open the bottle song... he was not comfortable in the first sequence when they pull him to dance... but near the end he really was dancing awesome... semma moves and was looking very smart for his looks... (actually avaroda personality'ku matthavanga ellaam aadra maadhiri kutthu dance ellaam aaduna paakka nallave irukkadhu... )
5. hammers to vp for his bloody <beeping> crew... bringing kids from kanaa kaanum kaalangal to act as SI and another as bar owner... dhaadi vechaa rugged look vandhudumaa?? ivanunga varra scene ellaame too much... dhanush thulluvadho ilamai first scene'la military major'a varra maadhiri... porambokkunga... i would say, evlo periya chance to direct ajith 50th movie, sariya use pannikkalai... if not for ajiths loyal fanbase, he would hav got egg in his face with this imo... chinna pasangala vechu comedy pannikittu... indha maaruveda poattila arvind'ku muslim vesam... Madhu-Cheenu drama group maadhiri panikittu irukkaanga...
6. lakshmi rai was gummm.... and anjali too was good initially... trisha... uvvae... no match for ajith... idha vida asingama kaatta mudiyaadhu... avalum ava dressum... dochu...
7. twist predict pannitaen... almost the hangover from saroja...
idha solliyae aaganum... to ajith fans... padattha semma oattu oattaraanga pola... one weekls 30 crores'aam... with all the fan bases recently disbanded... ajith kudutthu vechirukkanum... billa timela kooda tv interviews neraya vandhadhu... aana ippo andha maadhiri endha promotion'um illaamalae grand opening...

I was praying that VP and Thala should give a decent hit.. but now this had become block buster.. i know there are many many silent fans for thala.

And he is one man show.. he always played pivotal role in movies.. his movie doesn't depend on big comedian, villan, kuthu pattu etc.. and not even good heroines (expect few.. like vaali!!),and sometimes.. songs kooda sathi pannum!
what i wish to say here is, he steals the show in all his movies.. if director had good script and screen play.. and if luckily had a good heroine and good songs....sure it is going to be massive massive hit.! Directors should use him, instead saying,,.. "we dont know which movie will become hit and what will audience like"
Ajith is self made person..No jaalra, straight forward guy, i always look up to him as a role model..

softu.. perfect review about the podiyans... & about Aravind aakash
& my view matches all the Ajith well wishers views..
& whoever asks me the feedback, I'm saying "watch it for Ajith.. he has done very well"
hope most of u had seen the film..
when the podiyans get killed one by one.. u all have seen who dies last among those 4.. i said to my friend.. "aaha.. ivanthan padathula 3rd hero'va.. venkat prabhu oru mudivodathan irukkan"
no one is giving chance to premg.. other than his bro.. this shows his capability..

Hi all ,
After a long time am posting in the hub..though am a silent follower of the hub ( almost 3 years) .. I post very rarely... now Mangatha made me to post !!
My Review
------------------
Watched the movie on 30 th August in Boston . As an ardent thala fan, Just loved it ! blown away by thala's mannerisms and performance in the movie. flabbergasted is the word . I would rate 4/5 as a thala fan..
As a movie critic
--------------------------
-> The Plot is good but not out of the world. If the screenplay is tight, it would have boosted the whole plot and took the movie to a whole new level. Unwanted songs and comedy sequences in many place hampered the narration.
for example : There is one scene, when Thala, Ashwin and Vaibhav confronts each other while the money was looted by prem and mahat. That particular scene will take off with a good speed increasing the curiosity of the viewer to guess who mite have taken the money and Ajith would have complemented that scene is a superb way.. his way of saying "i am the f***ing king maker da" and threatening both with the gun... All of sudden vaibhav's phone will ring and this scene is abruptly ended and it moves to show Mahat and premji dancing for chennai super kings song in a lame manner. It kind of reduces the whole tempo the previous scene had for us. This is just an example. I found this in lot of places. VP should concentrate on his screenplay.
-> BGM was top notch from Yuvan. After IR, it is YSR in re-recording ! No doubt. Mangatha is just a proof for it. Especially the BGM which comes during the heist scenes.
-> Songs are good but seemed unwanted for this genre. Except Vilayadu Mangatha and Machi open the Bottle, rest all are misplaced.
-> Ashwin need to be mentioned. After Ajith and Arjun, its him who grabbed my attention. Neat acting by him
-> Vaibhav, Anjali, Laks rai, Trisha all did their role . Nothing to rave or nuthing to complain abt their performances as their scope is limited.
-> Mahat and Premji are in the flip side. very bad casting in my opinion. Mahat looks very young and he seemed to be nervous throughout. Artificial ! . Premji ought to change his style.
-> Arjun Sir gave his best. Tailor made role for him. Cakewalk I should say. And the way he delivered the Climax dialogues are awesome. "Swissu konjam risku izla ?!" with a sarcastic smirk oh his face !! chancey izla.. Nice to see him in this role. !
-> Editing could have been better. Not upto the trailer standards. Camerman Shakti sirvanan did wot the film needs. Simple and neat.
-> Now coming back to the "KING MAKER" . He stole the whole movie.. Multi starer multi starrer nu solli.. Thala alleka full movielayum applause vaangitu poitaru. He is the man. Waata a performance.. After a long time. I saw Ajith cracking jokes, smiling, romancing, dancing, even abusing .. haha...but he did everything in his own charm . . Best from him after a long time .
On the Whole Mangatha is one mass masala entertainer from Thala ! Its thala and only thala which took the movie to this level. Its like how Vettaiyan elevated "Chandramukhi" !!

Billa 2 team in Goa
Ajith has upped the ante with Mankatha. Following the colossal success of his 50th film, the expectations are higher than ever as Mankatha is a tough act to follow. However, the makers of Billa 2 are confident that their product will deliver the goods. Chakri Toleti, the director is pleased with the way the script has panned out and so is Ajith.
A fine technical team has also been assembled for Billa 2. Cinematographer Rajasekar revealed that he is using the same equipment that was used in Avatar that made it such a visual marvel. Currently, the filming is going on in Goa. The introductory portions and a few crucial scenes have been filmed and the team is kicked about the way their project is shaping up.

Saw the film on Monday itself. Dint quite like it. Ajith was spectacular in the first half. He was at ease and seemed very natural up until the interval. His best since varalaaru effeminate role.
In the second half he was made to overact and felt was annoying beyond a point. There were quite a few brilliant scenes in the film but those scenes were stretched. Bad editing. Like the chessboard scene, which was really good the first 2 mins but was stretched to 5 mins and I was waiting for it to get over. And way too many amateurish, videogame-ish fight scenes in the 2nd half which were so meh. And mixing comedy/PremG in serious scenes dint work at all. I liked the first half better in fact. Liked PremG's enthiran imitations but apart from those he was bloody annoying. And the songs, mudiyalai, except machi open the bottle, thanks only to Ajith.
Liked the way Ajith's character was written. Audacious indeed. Particularly liked the way he kicks Jayaprakash in front of Trisha Another thing worth mentioning is his English delivery ('precisely the point') Ajith sir take a bow.
Could have been a good film but VP dint know where to stop, that killed it.

Agree with nerd and soft ..
Container changing scene started well .. But ending worst .. Especially mahat in that scene .. Also 'mangatha da ' by premji was kodumai ..
"Precisely the point " was awesome
.. But the best was " yes yes yes .... "
That western classical mad man gun fight scene was too much .. The mistake was making vinayak a "mad" bad man .. He just needed to be a bad man ..

V.Prabu was inspired by "Ransom" when he wrote "Saroja" , and it looks like he was 'inspired' by Jason Statham & Wesley Snipes starrer "Chaos"(2006) - when he wrote "Mangaatha"!
Also, Ajith has tried to usurp some of the body language/expressions and dialogue delivery of John Travolta!
Atleast - it was good to see that they did not end up showing the protagonist as the all-weather good guy!

Regarding Ajith , whom i hardly gel with the hype and praises he has been getting , definitely this one is much much better .
Seems he has taken the criticism seriously and worked it out ..Ajith
Very average film making from Venkat prabhu .. Just because he kept the main character as bad guy , he can't be a great director .. Most of his mokkais which seems working with many of the hubbers , never hit me ,how hard i try
Ajith , I started liking you , but long way to go ..All the best .

Gambler: Ajith Steal The Showhttp://krishnakarthik.tumblr.com/pos...steal-the-showMovie: Gambler(Telugu Dubbed Version Of “Mankatha”Tamil).
Cast: “Thala”Ajith,Arjun,Vaibhav,Trisha,Lakshmi Rai,Premji Amaren…
Director: Venkat Prabhu
Genre: Action,Thriller,Comedy.
Watched At: Sunil,10:00pm,9/9/2011.
My Rating: 4/5.
Story And What’s The Film Is All About :
ACP Vinayak Mahadev(Thala Ajith) A Over Desired ,Greedy,Self Contentious,prehensile And Much More Ill Minded But Well Styled Get Suspended For 6 Months For Helping In The Eviction of a Bookie.He Gets Closer To A Betting Kingpin Reddy Gaaru Through His Daughter “Trisha”.Reddy Gaaru Plans For Major Betting Event In His Club Of Worth 500 Crore,Which Has The Stakes Of Famous Politicians,Celebrities.TheClose Associates Of Reddy Gaaru Suman(vaibhav),Sp Rajesh Kumar,Mahat And IIT Gradute Prem Plans To The Steal That Money From The Boss Itself.Later Vinayak Threats Them And Join With Them To Steal.
Mean While Betting business and illegal money laundering become rampant in india, pressures from the betting business people leads to the death of a Police.This Leads for The Establishment of Special Police Team To Tackle Betting Headed By Prudhvi raj(Arjun).This Police Team Plans For The Raid On The Club Of Reddy Gaaru And Plans To Get Hold Of 500 Crore Black Money.
And The Remaining Story Is All About
How The Team OF Ajith Steal The Money And Whether They Could Able To Get Equal Share Of The Money?
Whether The Police Get To The scene And Capture The Money Or Not?
Finally,What Led Ajith To Steal The Money And Help The Bookie In Eviction Without The Concern For His Job?
Analysis:-
Ajith:
Ajith Simply followed The Style And Attitude Of George Clooney From Oceans’ Eleven Which Suits Him Very Well.Since This Is His 50th Film He Took Much Care In His Looks And Styling .Though The Character is Not A positive One Kudos To Him For Selecting Such Character For His Land Mark Film And Excelling In It The Core.
His Expressions And Body Language Are Super And Can Be Remembered For A Long Time.In The Pre-Interval Scene He Simply Rocked With His Narration In How To Tackle The Situation In Distributing The money.
The Whole Second Half Credit Belongs To Ajith.His Action Reminded Me Of Al Pacino in Scarface .Though The Climax Is Predictable His Dialogues And face Expressions Makes The Scenes Intense And Drags The Attention.
NO Complaints.Truly Fascinating Performance From Ajith .All Accolades Goes To Thala Ajith.
Direction and Screenplay:
Venkat Prabhu is One Of The Few Directors I Like The Most.His Films Are Simple with no Much Dragging Scenes And Lengthy Dialogues.His Comic Touch I Almost Very Scenes In This Movie Is Super ,But In Some Scenes It Lacks The Freshness.
He Publicized This Film As”Venkat Prabhu’s Game”.Really This Is Film IS Game But The Film Of This Genre Are Old In Hollywood.But What Makes This Different Is The Humor In The Serious Scenes And Some Good Action.
Music And Other Departments:
The Back Ground Music By Yuvan Is Good But I Some Scenes It Is Loud.Especially The Slow Paced Violin BGM When Ajith Hits The People is Truly Intelligent It Marks and Brings The Feel The Legacy And Royale Which Truly Depicts The Protagonist.
Cinematography By Shakti Is Good.Art By Saboo Cyril Makes Mark In One OF The Songs With Trisha.
Comedy By Prem Ji Amaren Is Asusual Good As His Previous Films.He Makes The Spoof Of Tamil Heros’ Very Good.
FINAL VERDICT:Watch It Though You Have Watched Lot Of Such Films.Sense Of Some Difference Is Present In this Film And That Is Simply Ajith.

Ajith is the box office king

The Ultimate Star has proved that he is indeed the King of the Kollywood Box Office! Ajith, whose 50th film has met with resounding success at the BO, should be on cloud nine.
While his last release, more than a year and a half back, Asal, did not drive audiences to the theatre in droves, Mankatha has had audiences coming back for seconds and thirds.
He has always remained elusive to the media and never taken part in the marketing promotions and publicity that most stars do. In fact, the audio for Mankatha was released by the director, Venkat Prabhu and the music director, Yuvan Shankar Raja. Despite Ajith staying away from any promotional activities, the hype and buzz around this movie was extraordinary. And being his 50th film, the curiosity factor was really high for his fans and others. The movie has grossed more than Rs 35 crores and its songs continue to reign in the music charts.
What had the women swooning over, once the film released, was definitely his salt-and-pepper look. Tell him that women loved it and the star humbly says, ""Thank you.""

Mankatha scores again
http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...-10-09-11.htmlAjith's 50th film, Mankatha has been released in Telugu as Gambler and the film is doing whopping business. Tickets are selling like hot cakes and the makers could not be happier. Ajith's turn as the bad guy has come in for a lot of praise and admiration and he has won himself even more fans.
Mankatha continues the winning trend of Tamil films clicking in Andhra Pradesh. Earlier this year Ko released as Rangam did fantastic business and Karthi's Naan Mahan Alla released as Naa Peru Siva also did an exceptional job at the box office. There is a huge market for Tamil films in AP and this is great news for our Tamil film industry.

Watched it.
# The film was engaging, but was not fully satisfying after it was over.
# Ajith exudes pure evil in few scenes, which I wished to see more. But he went over the top in the second half and it didn't work for me.
# Venkat Prabhu still haven't learnt anything about treatment. He needs to realise that his offhanded directing style will not click everytime.
# Action sequences could have been more crisp (esp the shootouts. Meh!!)
# Yuvan did a good job in BGM as usual, but the songs were
# Premji and his spoofs He did raise a few laughs, though.
A good watch, overall.

Ajith’s Gambler Movie Review
What is the film about?
The film is about planning and pulling off a heist and it’s after effects.
Interesting, so how is the film?
While the premise is interesting the execution leaves a lot to be desired. The whole set up for the heist drags and also it takes up the entire first half of the movie. Not only that the heist itself looked pretty silly and was done in an almost childlike manner.
So it’s not good after all?
Well not really the second half of the film has few moments that are bound to attract the viewers depending on their exposure of films of this genre from the west. If one isn’t familiar with films of these genres the second half would be pretty satisfactory barring the songs which seem forced. For those who have even a small idea of this genre everything is predictable till the end, including the twist.
I am aware of the genre clichés so why should I watch it?
Then that leaves one with only one option and reason to watch the film, the hero or rather here the villain of the film Ajith. He is the only reason one would want to watch the film as he delivers a terrific performance. Again he comes into his own from the scene before interval of the film and just takes off from there till the end. If one is forced to watch the film it’s just for him.
What about the others?
Among the rest none have full fledged characters with Arjun being restricted to few scenes only. Trisha too has very little to do and is irritating in some of the scenes. Others are the usual gang that is present in A Venkat Prabhu film and they are just about passable. Lakshmi Rai gets a character that’s more interesting than Trisha and she does ok.
How is the direction?
The director seems to be an ardent fan of hero Ajith and designs a film just o showcase his favorite actor in a new light. He succeeds in doing that but as a director he has filed with the film in that the screenplay is pretty poor. Also there are lots of scenes that are lifted form various movies of the west. Over all not his best film and the direction could have been a lot better.
What is the film technically?
The film is inconsistent as far as the look of the film goes with some scenes looking very cheap. The DI could have been better in places it spoils the frame as its overdone. Music by Yuvan Shankar Raja is good but the placement of the songs is wrong and therefore lacks the impact. Background music is superb.
Bottom-line:
1. It’s a good watch if you are unfamiliar with the genre.
2. A decent watch if you are familiar with the genre and like the actor.
Rating: 3/5

Movie Review Gambler 2011 Telugu : Hit
The story begins with Vinayak (ajith) a cop who is on suspension. He lives life in his own way and has got a lover in the form of Sanjana (trisha) who is the daughter of a don Reddy (jayaprakash). Then there is the tough cop ACP Prithvi (arjun) who is roped in to investigate the suicide of a cop involving the betting mafia of IPL. The story takes a turn when Reddy discovers that about Rs 500 crores is coming to Mumbai for the IPL finals. However, his protégé Sumanth (vaibhav) hatches a plan with his group (mahant, premgi amaran ashwin) to steal the money. This is discovered by Vinayak and he joins the group. What happens after that forms the rest of the story.
Presentation : The director has come up with a thoughtful storyline and while the presentation was classy, the narrative was strong. The dialogues were too good, the script was written well and the screenplay was intense. Background score was good and two songs were hummable. Cinematography was the best. Editing was topnotch. Costumes were stylish and trendy while the art department was rich. The film belongs to Ajith who has shouldered it right from start to end, his three different forms is a highlight. Trisha is there for songs and romance part but she looks stunning. Arjun was elegant and he is the best bet for the role. Jayaprakash was apt. Vaibhav made his presence felt. Ashwin, Mahant, Premgi Amaran were good. Lakshmi Rai was sexy and provides the required visual relief while Anjali was brief but sensuous. The others did their bit as required and added value.
Conclusion : The film runs on the backdrop of cricket betting and though there are those slight traces of the Hindi movie Jannat, this has been packaged in a more entertaining way. While the first half goes about with the layering of the plot and the various characters, the second half belongs to the protagonist who was menacing. At the box office, the film will survive.
Bharatstudent verdict : Will Work out..

Fab 50
What to sayAjit Kumar is heaving a sigh of relief — his 50th film Mankatha's been declared a hit and has also brought him laurels from all quarters. “Now, I am committed to doing Billa 2 and I have to look younger because it is a prequel to Billa. This will probably be the last one where I do so (younger role). I prefer to do roles that suit my age. I'm sure there are many scripts out there for older actors such as me, and hopefully it will set a trend,” says Ajith.

Ajith: Just want a happy ending
Even with 50 films under his belt, actor Ajith remains down to earth, eschewing the trappings of stardom.
Ajith's unflagging enthusiasm, backed by persistence, has seen him through all the lows in life, so when success comes calling in the form of Mankatha, his 50th film, he is not duly affected as he has put in the same effort for all his projects.
The Hyderabad-born actor is confident that Gambler, the dubbed version, which released this Friday will equally entertain movie lovers in Andhra Pradesh. In Gambler, he plays an anti-hero. One has seen him either as a cop or a don numerous times but Ajith says he has experimented with various genres all along. “All my cop/gangster dramas have been spaced out but somewhere the films in which I played the bad guy were extremely successful, so people are under the impression that I play only such roles. I call it selective amnesia.”
Script is the hero
Not many top heroes would agree to go grey, Ajith's salt and pepper look and his willingness to submit to the script unconditionally has won him encomiums; yet he isn't willing to take the credit.
The modest actor says that the script is the hero. “Any artiste in my place, be it in Mumbai or Andhra Pradesh would have grabbed it, it's that exciting. I had an uncanny feeling that it would work big time while it was being made and even before the release I mentioned this to my director Venkat Prabhu and my wife. It was an emotional roller coaster ride but all's well that ends well. Arjun was very magnanimous, he agreed to do the role at the last minute, Nagarjuna was supposed to do it but he had date problems. The boys and the heroines, all of them have carried me on their shoulders.”
Ajith's Billa 2, a prequel to Billa is currently in progress. He explains the latest version shows the rise of the underworld don. He adds, “It shows how David became Billa, it was a collective idea and when Billa was released, critics and others panned it as a fashion show. Right now the negotiations are on with my next project, in three weeks it will be made official.”
The actor has a huge fan base but it surprised many when he disbanded his fan club. He cites the reasons,
“Just as they wish well for me I too want them to think and live well and prioritise their lives. Let them fend for roti, kapda and makaan first, we don't need fan clubs. I'm aware of their unconditional love and they need not prove it to the world. I want them to just take the good things from my cinema. There is also an unholy nexus between cinema and politics. All fans need is a good cinema, I don't want fans taking a stance and using my name, they have a free hand to support a political party and I too don't make my preferences public. About fans running films for 100 days - even God can't save a bad film, I'm happy they were with me through my worst crisis.”
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.
The actor has it all and is full of gratitude.
When he isn't doing films, Ajith is a race driver and his wife Shalini turned a badminton player at the state level. So ask him if his daughter Anoushka is showing an interest in sport or drama and he remarks;
“I wish she grows up to be a simple and a sensible woman. I don't want 100 films, I just want a happy ending.”

Backfrom Mankatha, Watched it at packed Concord Colombo. Some people who couldn't manage to get tickets opted for stools which were placed in the isle area.
Coming to the movie - it was a complete Ajith show from start to end aptly supported by Arjun and most of the support casts including Premji. Have to really appreciate Ajith for his guts to take up a negative role in his milestone venture. One of his best performances. The chess board scene was awesome and the final shot in that particular scene was chilling. He was truly amazing and without him VP would have maNNa kavvufied. I can confidently say other than Ajith none of the contremperary heros can shoulder such a role with so much elegance. IT was Ajith, Ajith and Ajith. Idha ippadiyae maintain paNNunga Sir.
I have no complaints about the first half. It is properly structured and sets the tone well for the second half. VP has been a bit careful not to let Premji go overboard. Some of Premji's scenes were mokkai (as usual) but he made me laugh in a couple of places (he is better than Santhanam). Few comedy dialogues of Ajith were padu mokkai and it was aptly credited to Santhanam
Premji and friend avvaLavu periya thogaiya eduthuttu - kaNkaaNaatha dhoorathukku pOgaama, Mumbai'la ellaarOda kaNla paduRa maathiri Lakshmi Rai'kooda suththurathu periya nerudal. Arjun's intro was superb and better than Ajith's. VP could have thought something different for Ajith's intro. Ajith intro paathathum pOchuda'nu thOnuchu but nalla vaela bayappadura maathiri ethuvum nadakkala.
4 lead ladies. I remember someone here saying that Anjali looked koLLai azhagu Ammani vegu seekiram serial'la kudumba thalaivi role paNRa aLavukku gundaa irukkaanga. Trisha as usual looked elegent and beautiful with some lovely costumes. No chances for acting though.
Songs were the biggest minus in this movie.They were cheap, crap and low class by all means ( I dont mean the picturisation). Ithukku DSP'yE parvalla. The quality of the movie would have got enhanced if there were no songs or with a couple of good quality songs. The songs really tested my patience. I could see many people walking out for a break and there were cat calls too when ever a song started. I also I heard some guys shouting "paatta nippaattungada".
A tailor made role for Arjun and his role commanded respect as always with his wonderful voice modulation.
The bloopers at the end were funny !
Overall it was a very good racy entertainer with Ajith's stunning performance. However padam mudinju veLiya varumpOthu "ennavO missing" maathiri oru feel irunthuthu. intha maathiri oru kathaikku, with Ajith and Arjun - sleek and style kammi'nu thOnuthu. Anyway it was much more than what I expected from Venkat Prabhu but Ajith for sure makes you forget all negatives and we should appreciate VP for bringing out such a brilliant performance from Ajith.

As i said before in CC, I knew I wouldn't like this film. So there you go padam enaku pudikala.
First half was tolerable and passable but 2nd half ruined it. Ajith has been made to overact or he was overacting in many scenes in the latter half. The foul words, and all those "Money money dialogs" looked so amateurish on screen. Padam eppo mudiyum ngra rangela irunduchu. Enna periya full length villain role. Vaali was miles better. Looks like everybody were super kind (even the neutrals and the Non - Fans is what is shocking) in giving their opinions about this film. If this movie is a hit then VP has got away with Murder.
The best part of the entire film was bloopers.
P.S: My apologies to fellow fans for a disappointing review.

On gambling and gunfirehttp://www.thehindu.com/arts/cinema/article2442175.eceVenkat Prabhu gives his take on the violence and anti-social themes his films depict
Chennai 600028, Saroja and Goa all of them have been dubbed and released in Andhra Pradesh. Director Venkat feels if he had his way he would have made them into bilinguals but now onwards he wishes to shoot a larger portion in Hyderabad, Vishakapatanam and other areas as well to bring a semblance of nativity to his stories.
A little tired from speaking to the media incessantly after the success of Mankatha (Gambler in Telugu), the director describes this film as his big ticket and for Ajith a landmark movie, the 50th in the actor's career. Was it easy roping in so many stars and artistes? “It was hard, looking back I wonder how I pulled it off. Getting Arjun, Trisha's dates weren't easy. Nagarjuna did not have dates, he wanted to work from April and we wanted to begin it right away. Finally, Arjun has suited the role very well as a cop. The twist in the end worked very well for him because he has this patriotic image. Vaibhav came in because Manchu Manoj had a shoulder injury and went for a surgery. Vaibhav was surprised when I asked him if he could join the shoot immediately. My boys trust me very much, I don't narrate the story to them.”
Venkat Prabhu thinks the film worked because there hasn't been a heist film in Tamil for a long time and most robberies in the movie are shown towards the climax. This time around, he showed it in the midst of the drama, and that seems to have worked.
He adds. “Mankatha is the game of cards. Stealing diamonds or burglary in a bank would have been clichéd and I struck upon the idea of routing the money in an alternate method. A cop gets info about huge money being transferred through an owner of a theatre, to his local theatre which is being used as a gambling parlour. People say it's a remake of the Hindi film Jannat; match fixing etc but that isn't true. I would have insisted on a bilingual if Nagarjuna were to be a part of it.” The director is often accused of glorifying anti-social themes but he has an answer for that too. He quips, “I don't pretend that anti-social things are not happening, I show it but there are no explicit sex scenes, violence is moderate and there is no gore. This is my first action film, and there is some gunfire. I even want my daughter to watch my films and make sure people aren't embarrassed, they are entertained. There is no point if they come to the theatre and close their eyes, turn their head away at certain scenes.”
What made him choose Ajith? He remarks, “Ajith chose me…I made the script without him and …it all happened over a phone call. I know his pluses and minus well, in 2003 I even acted in a film with him, he's very supportive.”

Gambler - The big betting heist
Bottomline: An Ajith bonanzaGambler is a regular two-and-half-hour thrill ride but for some reason it appears a lengthy watch. Venkat Prabhu crams the romantic scenes in the first half hour and keeps the adrenaline pumping with gun fights and the anti-hero's bleeped cuss words in the last one hour.
This isn't the first time that Ajith had played a baddie and the plot also isn't something off beat but the heist which involves Rs 500 crores pulls in a number of interesting characters in a story line that has been cleverly woven by the director. Gambler is worth checking out if you've been missing action movies for sometime, it has an interesting start, an engaging middle and a thrilling finish. Ajith drinks like a fish, womanises, feigns love, backstabs and takes pride in calling himself a mad man.
Suspended cop Vinayak (Ajith) is dating Sanjana (Trisha), daughter of Sambasiva Reddy (Jaya Prakash), who allows the betting dons to collect and distribute the booty from IPL matches in his theatre that has been converted into a gambling den. Reddy's men divert a gigantic amount that is supposed to reach the former and plan to divide it amongst themselves. Vinayak joins them and as the money is stolen, misunderstandings between them crop up and each one seeks to own the money.
The plot thickens as Prithviraj (Arjun), an Assistant Commisioner of Police is assigned the job of nabbing the bookies and all those involved in betting, he is out to get Vinayak and the rest.
There is a lot of glamour in the form of Trisha, Andrea, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai but Lakshmi Rai outshines all of them. Trisha's drunken scene is totally unnecessary, except for her colourful costumes, there isn't much substance to her role. Telugu actor Vaibhav hasn't clicked here big time in lead roles but is making himself noticeable in Tamil movies and is strangely not averse to playing supporting characters there. Ajith looks awesome as a man in his forties, as the ruthless and self-centred burglar. The film goes slow initially but picks up pace post interval. Yet ten minutes of the run time could have still been chopped for a slick look. A song shot indoors on Trisha and Ajith has been picturised in an interesting manner, the sets change in seconds as the tunes change track. Finally, Arjun's no-nonsense and blunt attitude pulls the film through the second half of the film and gives it an element of credibility

2011-09-11 12:28:58
Kollywood is abuzz with rumours that Ajith has given priority dates to his Mankatha director Venkat Prabhu and producer AM Ratnam!
Ajith is currently working on Chakri Toleti directed Billa 2. After the stupendous success of Mankatha the team of Ajith and Venkat wants to cash in on it and AM Ratnam will be the line producer.
The buzz is that the film will be marketed by a Mumbai based corporate.
Venkat Prabhu and AM Ratnam refuse to confirm or deny the rumour. Meanwhile a Singapore based NRI has also thrown in his hat for Ajith’s dates through his favourite director Vishnuvardhan.

There is a difference between Vaali and this one. Vaali had a 'good' (albeit wimpy) Ajith character to balance things. In this film, Vinayak is pure evil. Accepting such a role in this stage of his career, that too in a landmark film is certainly audacious and deserves applause. But he was portrayed 'cool' which is unavoidable. Originally Posted by ajithfederer
And w.r.to non-fans being kind, I can only speak for myself. I was appreciating his guts to do such a character more than his performance. And he was quite good in the 1st half. Movie is sumaar, but much better than Goa. No offense to Plum's wife, Goa was like, to quote the great George Carlin, watching flies buck.

Would like to see if VP will be able to make a movie without these guys Premgi, Vaibhav etc. Too boring to see the same set of guys on screen every year (just like how boring it was to see the same set of subject teachers every year even though we get promoted, during school days )

Mankatha scores in Telugu
After setting records at the Kollywood box office, the Venkat Prabhu-directed Ajith-starrer Mankatha is doing roaring business in Andhra Pradesh as well.
The film, which was dubbed into Telugu and released as Gambler has been a hit with the audiences there.
The film is the latest in a series of Tamil films to have tasted success at the AP box office. Earlier this year, dubbed Tamil flicks big and small like Jiiva's Ko (Rangam in Telugu), Naan Mahaan Mynaa (Naa Peru Shiva) and Mynaa (Prema Khiladi) became success stories at the box office and now, K-Town filmmakers have grown so confident of their film's chances in Telugu that they are shooting Telugu versions of their films as well.

Brisk opening for Gambler (Mankatha) at Andhra Pradesh Box Office
The Telugu film industry may be fuming over the success of Tamil films over mainstream Telugu films. But they can do nothing to stop it. They may try to increase the entertainment tax levied on Tamil films but it looks like even that may not stop Tamil films from making a mark.
The audiences prefer dubbed Tamil films over most of the Telugu films. Most of the films released recently did huge business there at the box office in Andhra Pradesh. Ko took a bumper from Andhra Pradesh when it was released as Rangam.
Naan Mahaan Alla followed suit with huge collections, since both Suriya and Karthi have a huge fan following in Andhra Pradesh. Now, Ultimate Star Thala Ajith has also made a mark there and has started setting the box office on fire.
He is mass not only in Tamil Nadu but Andhra Pradesh too has started to see him as a Superstar. Mankatha was released as Gambler in Telugu and the business only looks up north. Thala has set the Telugu box office on fire and looks like he will continue to do so in future.

Poor Ajith fans, they were longing for a hit and finally a movie directed by VP became a super hit. But they are thrashing VP though he has delivered a biggest hit for Thala. Padam mattum floppnu ennavellam pesuveengappa But Thala is not like you (those who are beating VP left and right) .
Sila peru inga solluratha (VP is waste but mankatha is best appadinu) paartha, master sariyilla anna saappadu super-nu sollura maathiri irukku. Alteast give some credits dudes.
For me, VP is a good director ada appadi illaimalaa 3 (out of 4) super hits koduthu irukkiraar and he definitely knows what he did, is doing, need to do. (romba overa poyiteeno)

Mankatha Creating New Records In Telugu Too As Gambler
http://www.starajith.com/2741-thala-...t-record-breakAfter setting records at the Kollywood box office, the Venkat Prabhu-directed Ajith-starrer Mankatha is doing roaring business in Andhra Pradesh as well.
The film, which was dubbed into Telugu and released as Gambler has been a hit with the audiences there.
Gambler’s success should be another eye opener for Telugu film industry. The film dubbed from Tamil is doing brisk business across Andhra Pradesh. Last Sunday, in Cinemax the movie had two shows and was running house full for both. Incidentally there were three other Telugu movies in the same multiplex which had tickets to spare. The Ajith-Trisha starrer is actually a slick rehash of many commecial potboilers that we have seen. But the difference is in the fast paced editing and treatment of the subject.
Gambler is currently at No.1 position according to the BO reports for the first week and had a huge opening at all centres, followed by Kandireega starring Ram. Gambler team is so happy about the opening in Telugu. Producer Bellamkonda Suresh happily says that the movie is creating new records in AP Box office

"An Ajith Bonanza" : Gambler Review By HINDU
Gambler is a regular two-and-half-hour thrill ride but for some reason it appears a lengthy watch. Venkat Prabhu crams the romantic scenes in the first half hour and keeps the adrenaline pumping with gun fights and the anti-hero's bleeped cuss words in the last one hour. This isn't the first time that Ajith had played a baddie and the plot also isn't something off beat but the heist which involves Rs. 500 crores pulls in a number of interesting characters in a story line that has been cleverly woven by the director. Gambler is worth checking out if you've been missing action movies for sometime, it has an interesting start, an engaging middle and a thrilling finish. Ajith drinks like a fish, womanises, feigns love, backstabs and takes pride in calling himself a mad man.
Suspended cop Vinayak (Ajith) is dating Sanjana (Trisha), daughter of Sambasiva Reddy (Jaya Prakash), who allows the betting dons to collect and distribute the booty from IPL matches in his theatre that has been converted into a gambling den. Reddy's men divert a gigantic amount that is supposed to reach the former and plan to divide it amongst themselves. Vinayak joins them and as the money is stolen, misunderstandings between them crop up and each one seeks to own the money.
The plot thickens as Prithviraj (Arjun), an Assistant Commisioner of Police is assigned the job of nabbing the bookies and all those involved in betting, he is out to get Vinayak and the rest.
There is a lot of glamour in the form of Trisha, Andrea, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai but Lakshmi Rai outshines all of them. Trisha's drunken scene is totally unnecessary, except for her colourful costumes, there isn't much substance to her role. Telugu actor Vaibhav hasn't clicked here big time in lead roles but is making himself noticeable in Tamil movies and is strangely not averse to playing supporting characters there. Ajith looks awesome as a man in his forties, as the ruthless and self-centred burglar. The film goes slow initially but picks up pace post interval. Yet ten minutes of the run time could have still been chopped for a slick look. A song shot indoors on Trisha and Ajith has been picturised in an interesting manner, the sets change in seconds as the tunes change track. Finally, Arjun's no-nonsense and blunt attitude pulls the film through the second half of the film and gives it an element of credibility.

The festival season Ramzan- Onam Box-Office has been a bit of a dampener for Malayalam film industry.
All the four new releases Teja Bhai & Family(Aug 30), Pranayam(Aug 31), Sevenes (Sep8), Dr Love (Sep 9) and Ulagam Chuttum Valiban (Sep 9) has received only lukewarm reception at the Kerala box-office.
The surprise hit if you take ROI (Return On Investment) is the Tamil film Mankatha. Ajith, the hero does not have a big reach in Kerala, but the Venkat Prabhu film which had Arjun is a super hit. Mankatha initially released only in Thiruvananthapuram and Palakkad districts on Aug 31, and went all Kerala only on September 9. The film brought for Rs 60 lakhs in Kerala is expected to get distributors a share of Rs 1.30 to 1.40 Crore. In Thiruvananthapuram, Palakkad and Ernakulam the film took a better opening than Malayalam films and is the clear number one.
At number two is the re-released 3D digital My Dear Kuttichathan. Though it released only in 14 screens, it took an amazing opening and is steady with family audiences.
In the third place is Blessy`s Pranayam, which is getting only balcony audiences in major towns. At number four is Teja Bhai & Family which opened well on day one but subsequently fell due to bad content. In the fifth place is Salt & Pepper which continues to do extraordinary business.

கேரளாவில் எந்திரனுக்குப் பின் மங்காத்தா சாதனை!
கேரளாவில் ரஜினியின் எந்திரன் செய்த வசூல் சாதனையை இதுவரை ஒரு ஒரிஜினல் மலையாளப்படம் கூட செய்ததில்லை.
நேரடி தமிழ்ப் படமாக கேரளத்தில் வெளியான எந்திரன் 9 வாரங்களில் 9 கோடியை குவித்தது. மாநிலத்தின் பல இடங்களில் நூறாவது நாளைக் கொண்டாடிய எந்திரன், மொத்தமாக ரூ 14 கோடி வரை வசூலித்தது. இந்தப் படத்தை செவன் ஆர்ட்ஸ் விஜயகுமார் (குசேலன் தயாரிப்பாளர்) வெளியிட்டு அசாதாரண லாபம் கண்டார்.
அதன் பிறகு வேறு எந்தத் தமிழ்ப் படமும் எந்திரனில் 10 சதவீதத்தைக் கூட கேரளாவில் எட்டிப்பிடிக்கவில்லை, வெற்றிப்படம் என அறிவிக்கப்பட்ட கோ உள்பட!
ஆனால் கேரளாவில் பெரிதாக ரசிகர்கள் இல்லாதவர் எனப்பட்ட அஜீத்தின் மங்காத்தா வசூலில் கலக்க ஆரம்பித்துள்ளது.
கேரளாவில் திரையிட்ட முதல் ஒரு வாரத்தில் இந்தப் படம் 1 கோடி வசூலைத் தொட்டுவிட்டதாக கேரள விநியோகஸ்தர்கள் கூறியுள்ளனர்.
எந்திரனுக்குப் பிறகு, கேரளத்தில் ஒரு படத்தின் வசூல் கோடியைத் தொட்டிருப்பது இதுவே முதல்முறையாம்.
ஆந்திராவிலும் மங்காத்தா நல்ல வசூலைக்குவித்து வருவதாக செய்திகள் வெளியாகியுள்ளன. பாக்ஸ் ஆபிஸில் இந்தப் படம் முதலிடம் பிடித்துள்ளது. எந்திரனுக்குப் பிறகு தமிழ்ப் படம் ஒன்று வெளிமாநிலங்களில் இந்த அளவு ஓடுகிறதென்றால் அது மங்காத்தாதான் என்கிறார்கள்

Mankatha – Super Hit in Kerala After Endhiran
Mankatha is a hit not only in Tamil Nadu but also in Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. In Kerala, Ajith does not have a huge fan following like Rajinikanth or many other actors. Yet, Mankatha has been termed a super hit and is the numero uno at the box office.
Within the first week, Mankatha had collections of about Rs. 1 crore in Kerala. Mankatha is next only to Endhiran in the opening weekend collections in both Chennai and Kerala. Endhiran had collections of about Rs. 9 crore in nine weeks after which the collections were Rs. 14 crore in about 100 days.
Not even a Malayalam film has surpassed this record. No other Tamil film, including Ko, had such collections. But when Mankatha entered the box offices of both Andhra Pradesh and Kerala, it took them in its control by a storm.
Looks like Ajith’s magic has also begun working in Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. When Tamil movies are making their presence felt outside the state, actors like Karthi, Vishal and Suriya had done their best to keep hold of the box office there. Now, Ajith too has joined them and will soon be a Superstar in all the South Indian regional film industries.

AJITH'S 50TH - DOES THALA RULE? YOU BET HE DOES!
I've never been a big fan of Ajith as an actor. But, as a human being, it’s a totally different issue. He is an individual I look up to in real life. Why? He's everything I want to be and more. He's a self made man, a successful actor, someone who will stand to politics and politicians even when he has everything to lose, and ... and ... get this ... he drives Formula 3 cars in Europe! Talk about jet - setter. This guy is probably India's suavest multitasker, and judging by what his comrades say, he's not even a Casanova. What a perfect guy, but as an actor?
Well, I had my doubts till Mankatha came along, but watching it last night, those washed away too. All I have to say now is ... what a perfect guy!
I'll do a detailed analysis of this movie later, because I have some strong feelings about it and want to use it as an example about where I think contemporary Tamil cinema is headed. But right now, this one is for Ajith and his gazillion fanatics (of whom I'm admittedly one). So, an ode to the Ultimate Star... a eulogy to the Thala...
There's a distinct vibe about this guy ... he polarizes opinion. you either love him or you hate him, and there's hardly any middle ground. There's no other actor you can really cross your heart and say that about. Nobody ever hates Rajni. Some like his acting, others die for his style and charm, and yet others will stand by hi his spiritualism. With Kamal, his only detractors are those who take offense at his social and religious mores; but even they cannot deny his thespian prowess. No matter what you say about Vijay, the ultimate formula - man, he's really got his boy next door appeal. There's nary a soul in this world that dislikes Surya, and much as Vikram can grate on your senses sometimes, none will say that he doesn't put his life and soul into everything he does.
So, we come back to Ajith. The things that polarize people about him are the same things that feed all these other demigods. Sure, he's stylish, but you'd have to be as elitist as he is to imitate him ... nope sorry, that cigarette trick just doesn't cut it, pal. As far as acting goes, admit it... he's no Kamal ... no one is. Yes, he's handsome, but is he someone you can see standing at the street corner chatting it up with you, like Vijay? Surya is about as likely to sport a paunch as Ajith is to baring a six pack. Finally, even though he's diversified his portfolio as an actor of late, there's no way in hell he's put himself through so many different experiences as Vikram has.
So, there you go. This guy's stylish, but not gimmicky, he's trying his best, but the game's a hard one to play, he's suave, but a cut above you and me (not Navy cut, which he's too sophisticated to smoke anyway), he's fit, but not in an I-want-to-kill-myself-when-I look-at-you kind of way, and he's versatile but not wed to that philosophy. What he is ... what he is is REAL. He's a human being with goodness in his heart, down to earth and someone who knows his limitations and can make the best use of what he's got.
For instance, he can drive ... boy, can he drive! And so he does those handbrake turns and drifts himself. He's got style, so he makes sure that all his movies have the oomph quotient. He's understated, so he makes sure he gets roles akin to Eastwood and Brando, rather than deNiro and Carry. And above all, its clear that he has a deep empathy for his fellow human beings (which is why he's one actor who enquires about the day - to - day affairs of everyone in his cast and crew), and a great zest for life. His fan base is not only the most vocal in the state (after that one guy ... superstar or something), but also the most giving. His fans love him more for his off-screen persona than for the things he does on it. They do good deeds in his name, and when they go over the top, he keeps them grounded. And they adore him for it.
All this brings me back to the role he essayed in Mankatha. Director Venkat Prabhu said that Ajith wanted a Heath Ledger's Jokeresque part to play. And he delivered with aplomb (or as much aplomb as is possible for a non - Nolan director). You see, to do a Ledgeresque Joker, you either have to be a real life psychopath, or be so confident in your inherent humanity that you can pull off pure evil without it scarring you forever. Ledger (rest his soul), literally gave his life for that performance, and while Ajith is no psycho, is badass enough to realize that his innate goodness can save him from a similar fate. He did a fantastic job ... bottom line.
And this choice of role brings me to my second point. Rajni did Sri Raghavendra for his 100th. Vijay did Sura for his 50th. And more power to them (I'd give my left ball to spend a day with either of them). Rajni did that role to say thanks for his charmed existence. And Vijay portrayed his to acknowledge his fans. Ajith, on the other hand, constructed sixteen titanium inlaid carbon fiber balls to do what he did in Mankatha. High risk and on the edge is clearly what this man thrives on.
That is why he'll do a baddie to end all baddies in hi s 50th, that is why he'll invest his life savings on 200mph deathtraps when he's 40+, that is why he's stand up to the CM, and that too in his own appreciation ceremony (of which there were admittedly many). That's wh6y, as I say ... what a perfect guy! Ajith’s 50th - Does Thala rule? You bet he does!
I've never been a big fan of Ajith as an actor. But, as a human being, its a totally different issue. He is an individual I look up to in real life. Why? He's everything I want to be and more. He's a self made man, a successful actor, someone who will stand to politics and politicians even when he has everything to lose, and ... and ... get this ... he drives Formula 3 cars in Europe! Talk about jet - setter. This guy is probably India's suavest multitasker, and judging by what his comrades say, he's not even a Casanova. What a perfect guy, but as an actor?

I don't think anyone would hate Ajith, the way they do, well, you-know-who and you-know-who. I'd imagine it is easier to find a Rajini hater than a Ajith hater.
Numerous (presumably) non-fans have written in this very thread that mankathai is, well, crap but happy for Ajith that it is a BO successs for his sake.
Then there are the others who think he is the only good looking Tamil hero so although not a fan, don't mind even crap movies from him. Here's how my wife explained going to mankatha to her Mumbai and Hyd friends(tamil nominally but for all practical purposes, snobbish)
My wife: hey you know I am going to watch Mankatha
Friends: (snigger) what was that dudette? So you've started watching that sort of stuff after moving to Chennai (uvvek)
MW: hey you know its not all that bad. Its just the name, you know. It's got Ajith, FFS.
Friends: oh, Ajith? That explains it, then. The movie title made us think the worst of it you know. If it's Ajith, we can understand. You haven't gone all tamil-y insane then.

Bimmer, that is SO not the point. The point is Ajith has huge amount of good will even among non-fans. Perhaps, more so than any other mass hero in Tamil. The pockets of influence include constituencies traditonally not inclined to patronise tamil mass cinema.
That claim about Ajith being polarizing is so off the mark.
If anything, Vijay is a polarizing figure. You either have people absolutely loving his antics or ones who simply ridicule/hate him. There is no in-between w.r.t him.

I had never associated "writing credibility" or "directorial vision" with Venkat Prabhu. He's just another mainstream commercial director who watched too many Hollywood films like Gautam Menon. Ambuduthen.This movie is not a classic E-type Jaguar. It's a star-driven pimped up local car used for joyride. And a fun ride too.

Mankatha garners Rs 1.24 cr at UK Box Office
Ajith Kumar's golden jubilee film Mankatha has continued to rock at the UK Box Office (BO). The movie, which was released on August 31, has managed to garner Rs 1.24 crore (£11,587) at the BO despite facing a huge competition from other language films.
Sources have confirmed that Mankatha is doing good business not only in the UK Box Office but in other countries like Singapore, Malayasia, US, etc. The last week release Vandhan Vendran has collected Rs 8.65 cr in its first weekend at the UK Box Office.
Mankatha was at 15th place at the UK Box Office in its first weekend. The only other Indian movie featured in the list was Bollywood film Bodyguard in the first week after the release.
Ajith Kumar, Trisha Krishnan and Arjun Sarja starrer Mankatha is reportedly nearing Rs 40 crore mark at the overall Box Office collections.

Siva,
I never said 'Mankatha' was a hit only because of the fans marketing it. The word of mouth for the movie was so good that it got the success it deserved. Compared to his previous blockbusters like Billa or Varalaaru, FB/Twitter updates on Mankatha was on a large scale.

Kamal in his career has done more than enough.
I am not a Rajni enthusiast and I don't see his films in theatres(since like mid 90's).
Market expansion has already occured when Tamil diaspora has scattered all over the world.
None of the above is an issue wrt to the topic because this film is bad. IMO. A passable first half is ruined by a silly second half. Venumna ninga thalaila thooki vechu kondadunga. I am not ready to join the bandwagon.

Mankatha – a game with symphony
A lot said and reviewed about Thala's Mankatha. Firstly, I was not an Ajith fan. But now, yes I am. Ajith is well known for speaking his mind but I really looked up to him when he had the audacity to disband his fan club... KUDOS!!! Well, I want to write about Mankatha’s music. The first time I heard Mankatha songs after its music release, I felt Yuvan could have done a better job. But after watching the movie, I loved all the songs and BGM. I’m not sure if it was ‘Ajith factor’ that gave life to Mankatha’s music.
1) Vilayadu Mankatha – This peppy song is the first song of the movie. Premji Amaren with Yuvan, Ranjith and Sucharita has enlightened the song brining out the substance of the movie. Of course Lakshmi Rai was smoking hot. As the chorus says, it is “Mankatha Da’
2) Nee.. Naan – I could feel that SPB Charan has got his dad’s base voice. No words to explain Bhavatharani’s mellifluous voice. The mood of the song perfectly syncs with the CG. And it was a good thought to use the same CG effect when character Sumanth dies.
3) Vaada Bin Ladaa- I felt this song is the ground rule for a movie MUST have a duet of lead pair. But I was carried away by Ajith’s suave style of dancing with ease. CG needs a special mention. Krish and Suchitra are always my favorite singers. Well done Yuvan for handshaking the song with different music style. It is a feast to hear.
4) Machi open the Bottill (Bottle)- Wowww…. This peppy song is vivacious.. makes one to dance. Should I mention about Padmasree Vaali’s casual lyric writing style. Befitting lyrics to affluence of the movie.
5) Nanbane- Again it is Padmasree Vaali. Unpretentious lyrics!!! The way Yuvan scored and sung is simply awesome. Madhusree, this lady’s voice has got temperament. Her voice is the best fit for the song to bring out the agony. The music of the song depicted the friendship between a boy and a girl. When Madhusree’s voice ends with agony, Yuvan's voice comes out fresh consoling his girl.
6) Balle lakka- Somehow I feel that is song is unnecessary for the script. Yet nice attempt. Singers Karthik, Vijay and Anusha have done justice.

Only in Devi,not in Devi paradise... no Abhirami 7 star only in Swarna shakthi,Only in Kamala 1 not 2... PVR only 3 shows... still Manktha having more shows than EE, Mankatha had good 4th weekend except sunday night shows almost all the multiplexes shows had packed shows.Overall week collection for Mankatha would be higher than EE,but EE might beat us in weekend collection.. let see...

30 நாட்களில் 80 கோடியை அள்ளிய 'மங்காத்தா'!
(Mankatha Box Office Collection: 80 crore in 30 days)
அல்டிமேட் ஸ்டார் அஜித்தின் 50-வது படம் 'மங்காத்தா'. இப்படத்தை வெங்கட் பிரபு இயக்கியிருந்தார். அஜித்துடன் ஆக்ஷன் கிங் அர்ஜுன், த்ரிஷா, ஆண்ட்ரியா, லட்சுமிராய், அஞ்சலி, பிரேம்ஜி அமரன் என ஒரு நட்சத்திரப்பட்டாளமே நடித்திருந்தது. கடந்த ஆகஸ்ட் 31-ம் தேதி திரைக்கு வந்த இப்படம், இந்த ஒரு மாதத்திற்குள் 80 கோடி ரூபாயினை வசூல் செய்து சாதனை படைத்துள்ளது. தமிழ் படத்திற்கு வசூலான தொகை இது. இதே படம் தெலுங்கில் 'கேம்ப்ளர்' என்ற பெயரிலும், மலையாளத்தில் இதே பெயரிலும் டப் செய்து வெளியிட்டிருக்கிறார்கள். அதனுடைய வசூல் தொகைகளையும் சேர்த்தால் 110 கோடியை தாண்டும் எனத் தெரிகிறது. இந்த சீட்டுக்கட்டுல விட்டதெல்லாம் பிடிச்சிட்டாங்க போலயே....

Why should one watch mankatha? - by a vijay fan
Ajith Vs Vijay, an evergreen topic for discussion among staunch believers for the last 15 years and still going strong. Wouldn't it be interesting for Ajith fans to know what do (rational) Vijay fan feel about the movie.
Now why should one watch Mankatha?
4. Neo-noir genre: Second Tamil film in a year to adopt this genre (first was Aaranya Kaandam). First time with a star in the movie. Neo-noir style of filmmaking involves anti heroes as protagonists, unconventional screenplay, lot of twists and turns, concealment of certain important information during the course.
3. Character visualization: The characterization is like a pack of cards where you have Jokers (2) Mahath & Prem who change the course of the game, Queens(4) indirectly responsible for change in the game, Jack(4) Kamal, Faizal, Sumanth & Ganesh who are mere executors, King(2) Prithvi (apparently he is the only guy with a king's name), Arumuga Chettiar the losing king and finally there is a King maker or the Ace of spades.
2. Story & BGM: The film is a not a rip-off from any unpopular English film (at least till now). Though there would be instances where you will have a déjà vu experience if you have seen movies like Shade, usual suspects, The Italian job, Ocean's 11,12,13 etc. But the film is a clean Ulle-veliye (another name for 'Mankatha'). Yuvan proves his class in choosing the right BGM for the movie, definitely addictive.
1. Vinayak Mahadevan: Yes it is Vinayak after Sakthivel (of Kireedom), Deva (of Vaali), Shiva (of Kadhal Mannan) who remains in our mind. Portrayal of Vinayak as a money obsessed, drunkard police officer with absolutely merciless is classic. At no point Vinayak loses his focus on money, moves every other character to get his work done. Ajith has used most of the negatives like his grey hair, age, tummy to show the maturity of Vinayak. This is one of the finest portrayals of a negative shade by Ajith.
0. Bloopers: Never enjoyed the bloopers so much, Ajith's expression in the bloopers (“innoru dabha sollen”) is sufficient enough to say that none of his directors have extracted the natural humor out of this guy.
All said and done 'Mankatha' is not a milestone in Tamil cinema, but it is definitely for Ajith's career. I still go back to bed as a Vijay fan expecting Ilaya Thalapathy to deliver a bigger, better film than Ajith and even if he doesn't we still love Ilaya Thalapathy for what he is.

A brief review from pov of a neutral. It was a surprise when we decided to watch a "non rajni-kamal" tamil movie in theatre...
Choice which I did not regret...because,
The first impression I had always carried about ajith is "attagasam" as unfortunately that happened to be my first watch of him on big screen. I never was impressed, rightfully so, and hence carried no big impression of either ajith or his movies except for creamy few.
This movie "mangatha" speeded up to take a place in my top 5 favourite of ajith's works. why?
I prefer to "list" out the reasons.
1. almost on top of the list comes "venkatprabhu" with his brilliant face pace screen play and catchy story. congrats dude. His place is almost next to ajith in the victory of this movie.
2. Thinking "out of the box" for a tamil movie. (oh forget the discredits like "italian job" and the like which always people try hard and harder to shatter victory's face. Saddists I say)
3. No beating around the bush, no crap comedy track to hang lose, no itchy witchy sentiments, no tears, I came out of the theatre fresh as a flower without worrying about how to hide weeping eyes or blown nose.
4. Music, if not super hit, definitely foot tapping. ATleast most songs are.
5. Needless to say, one of the top reason is, ajith! Young handsome man at 40. "So what If i am forty, I still am good looking and presentable" அப்டீங்கற அழகான திமிர் தன் வயதை ஒப்புக்கொள்வதில் தெரிகிறது. :P Good show and good work.
now a neutral point to argue or debate upon
**ok... no message...but who wants one eh? we aren't preachers, we just show
a bit of raw, spoilt underworld society, take it! face it! This is what world around
you or India around you is all about.... ** Definitely a bitter pill, society needs a change
and none of these movies bring about any, infact, they "ADAPT" you to the pathetic
situation. So tomm, a common man will be immune to all these..................** oh crap, who said, it also throws light on what exactly happens around you and makes the "educated lot"
more aware............. ** 'beep beep' aware, thats all we can do, just be aware. (AND the debate can go on and on)
cons
1. தாய்குலங்களே தந்தைகுலங்களே, if ur children are below 13 its fine, above 20 its fine,
too vulnerable for teens.
2. Toooo much skin show, it gets disgusting. ( யாரங்கே, காஞ்சி பட்டு புடவைய

thought sharing..
Ajith muzhukka muzhukka -ve role eduthu nadichirukkuradha ellorum solranga.. enakku appadi theriyalai.. matra nadigargal yerkka thayangura character'nu sonna oththukkalam...
Vinayak (Ajith)'s character eppadi pattadhu... he is a typical human being who wants to be a billionaire without much hard work..
idhu ellorum sadharanama yosikkiradhuthan.. idhula vazhakkamana thamiz cinema herovoda uzhaithidu-uyarndhidu ilakkanam illaiye thavira moththama onnum villain'ah nadikkalai..
thamiz cinemala hero kettavana nadicha makkaL oththukka mattanga.. atleast oru chinna flash back aavadhu venum.. nyayapadutha.. (sigappu rojakkal)
so, vinayak is just a normal man.. still a good person
reasons:
i) Ajith koLLai adikka ninaikkiradhu black money.. adhuve oru kadinamana uzhaippali - thina kooli.. ippadi yarkittayavadhu 5 - 10 thatti parikkira madhiri / pitchaikarankittaye thirudura madhiri scene irundha kettavannu oththukkalam
ii) trisha evvalavu nerungi vandhalum oru kiss kooda illama kanniyama nadandhukkira madhirithan scenes irukkum.. iththanaikkum oru scenela bodhaila irukkura trisha'va samayam payanpaduthi merppadi samaacharangal edhvum illama avanga veetukku uLavu parkka andha neratha payan paduthi iruppar.. idhuthan oru villainukku azhaga..
iii) kadhaiyai poruthavarai trisha kudumpa ponnu - lakshmi rai padi thaandiyaval... yarukkitta eppadi irukkanumo appadi nadandhuruppar
iv) eppavum kudi + cigarette..... idhellam irundha avan kettavan kidayadhunnu namma hubbers'eh solluvanga
v) foul language.. esp. the f word.. innaikku 4th std 5th std pasangale ippadithan pesikkiranga... maththadhellam english'la pesunalum, ketta varthai mattum thella theliva thamizlla pesuranga.. idhai ellam vechu eppadi kettavarnu solradhu..
so, back to the start.. Ajith muzhukka muzhukka -ve role eduthu nadichirukkuradha ellorum solranga.. enakku appadi theriyalai.. matra nadigargal yerkka thayangura character'nu sonna oththukkalam... adhukkaga Ajith
venkat prabhu'than ellarayum yemathikittu irukkan..
nan parthadhula most -ve character by a hero: Sigappu RojakkaL Dileep..
endha vidha nyayapaduthudhalum illama appadi oru characterla.... yaaralayum.. endha "hero" aalayum panna mudiyadhu.. image'i udaikkanumnu ninaichalum thavaraana example aagidakoodadhunnu ninaippanga..

Good one though!!!
MANKATHA COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER!
Home > Visitor Column
By Behindwoods Visitor Suresh N
While the movie has already been declared a super hit and an umpteen number of reviews done about Mankatha, it’s a fact that the movie managed to emerge a winner ONLY because of Ajith and even the reviews that focused on his panache and élan, thrashed the sloppy screenplay. This article is about some suggestions that could have made Mankatha a near perfect heist-thriller. Since this article contains spoilers, I am using the character names, not the actor names to camouflage a little.
********* CONTAINS SPOILERS *********
The Role:
Coming to the characterizations of the boys, there is no defined role for each of them, which makes one wonder why too many characters. When the director has made up his mind to get inspired from Hollywood, why should it be half-baked? Well, here we go with the modification. Vinayak, the Thala, is the master planner; Prem, the hacker, (not of the traffic signals) and Ganesh, the inspector, we will come to what their roles are later in the article. Suman knows, and so gives the whereabouts of the money and how Chettiyar plans to move the money. Mahat, the bar owner, funds the operation. A montage can be shown the team discussing and a dialogue can be added, “Okay boys, ellarkum avangavunga plan gnabagam irukkilla?”
Moving the Money
Chettiyar, being an experienced Don of Bombay, cannot be dumb to move the money in such a truck with least security. Since he is aware of the police raids, he plans to keep it simple and stupid. The truck of Sanjana Chit Funds has 2 crores of INR WITH PROPER PAPERS. So, during police check it would be let off easily when shown the proper records. But, it has a secret chamber (imagine an iron case of size the length and breadth of the truck, just like a drawer in a table) that has a security system with password combination and can be opened only with Chettiyar’s fingerprints. There comes Prem to hack the password combination and Suman brings Chettiyar’s fingerprints. (Prem’s scene in the traffic control room can be deleted and a short flashback cut can be shown Chettiyar patting on Suman’s shoulder and he brings that shirt for the fingerprints)
The Heist
Though the bike stunt drives the fans bonkers, again it’s because of Ajith. The role of Ganesh, the cop, comes here, he is the one who stops the truck and checks and helps to remove the secret chamber, not the whole container (Come on now, it cannot be done in a National Highway without anyone noticing) and transfers to another van, which is driven by Ganesh to dodge other police checks. Prem opens it later with his hacking skills.
The Double Cross
The chess board scene is really new to Tamil Cinema, but again, if you take Ajith out of the equation, the plan is a slam-dunk. Vinayak, being a dirty cop and master planner, should analyze all possibilities. Just as Vinayak plans to double cross others, he should also permute the possibility of Ganesh and Suman double-crossing him. We will come to Prem and Mahat later.
Here comes the best use of the chessboard, the place where the King should stand and the best possible angle to draw and aim the gun at others.
Plan A: He shoots them all, of course, shooting Ganesh first.
Plan B: Possibility of Ganesh shooting Vinayak and others.
Plan C: Possibility of Suman double-crossing.
Plan D: Possibility of both Ganesh and Suman double-crossing.
As he describes, Prem and Mahat are mokka pasanga, so him shooting them can be left as it is in the movie. Why so? Will be explained in the following paragraph.
The interval block, a small change there to keep the audience guessing for whom the money is stolen. After Vinayak says, “Appo meedhi panam?” and laughs, a shot showing clips of the characters (aka square blocks in Karka Karka song in VV and scene when Rajini calls all black-marketers in Sivaji). First square block shows Chettiyar (to create an impression that Vinayak steals the money for Chettiyar and Sanjana), second one Ganesh (cop plus cop), third Prem (his recent closeness with Vinayak in the bar scene) and Suman (since he has a family) and of course, Sona. And now the blocks break as glass with Strictly No Rules tag and the interval!
The Mokka Pasanga
Well, any well-thought plan should have a hiccup, even for a master planner. It shouldn’t be always a one-sided game, should it be? Prem and Mahat get away with money cheating everyone else. Their motives are not understood by Vinayak and he underestimates them. A dialogue can be added once they see the money gone, “Chinna pasanga nu thappa eda pottuten.”
Climax – The Kicker
Right from the beginning of the second half one keeps guessing who is going to get away with the money and thinks the chase is after the money in the first place. Well, it is not. In the last scene, it should be revealed that during the heist night, Prithvi goes to the warehouse where the money is stored, replaces 490 crores with fake notes. (Yep, did you really think that a wicked brain like Vinayak would be ready to share 100 crores with petty thieves and wait and sit on a heap of currency?) Why replace rather than just take the 490 crores? A safety measure. Even if someone manages to take all the money, it should be of no use to them, and by the time they realize, Vinayak would have fled already.
Why 490 crores? Because Vinayak plans show the police that only 10 crores was stolen (And that explains how Mahat and Prem managed to exchange the currency. Those are real notes)
So, why to chase the fake currency? No, the chase is not after the money, it’s after the lives of the conspirators. Vinayak and Prithvi plan to kill everyone involved in the heist so that no one comes after them. While Vaibav is well planned and executed during the interrogation and Ganesh is saved for the fake death scene, Prem and Mahat get away (Velila poi pottu kuduthruvanga). So the chase; and Sona is collateral damage and what is burnt in the final scene is fake notes. Prithvi and Vinayak get away with 490 crores. Game Over!

Choice which I did not regret...because,
The first impression I had always carried about ajith is "attagasam" as unfortunately that happened to be my first watch of him on big screen. I never was impressed, rightfully so, and hence carried no big impression of either ajith or his movies except for creamy few.
This movie "mangatha" speeded up to take a place in my top 5 favourite of ajith's works. why?
I prefer to "list" out the reasons.
1. almost on top of the list comes "venkatprabhu" with his brilliant face pace screen play and catchy story. congrats dude. His place is almost next to ajith in the victory of this movie.
2. Thinking "out of the box" for a tamil movie. (oh forget the discredits like "italian job" and the like which always people try hard and harder to shatter victory's face. Saddists I say)
3. No beating around the bush, no crap comedy track to hang lose, no itchy witchy sentiments, no tears, I came out of the theatre fresh as a flower without worrying about how to hide weeping eyes or blown nose.
4. Music, if not super hit, definitely foot tapping. ATleast most songs are.
5. Needless to say, one of the top reason is, ajith! Young handsome man at 40. "So what If i am forty, I still am good looking and presentable" அப்டீங்கற அழகான திமிர் தன் வயதை ஒப்புக்கொள்வதில் தெரிகிறது. :P Good show and good work.
now a neutral point to argue or debate upon
**ok... no message...but who wants one eh? we aren't preachers, we just show
a bit of raw, spoilt underworld society, take it! face it! This is what world around
you or India around you is all about.... ** Definitely a bitter pill, society needs a change
and none of these movies bring about any, infact, they "ADAPT" you to the pathetic
situation. So tomm, a common man will be immune to all these..................** oh crap, who said, it also throws light on what exactly happens around you and makes the "educated lot"
more aware............. ** 'beep beep' aware, thats all we can do, just be aware. (AND the debate can go on and on)
cons
1. தாய்குலங்களே தந்தைகுலங்களே, if ur children are below 13 its fine, above 20 its fine,
too vulnerable for teens.
2. Toooo much skin show, it gets disgusting. ( யாரங்கே, காஞ்சி பட்டு புடவைய
வாங்கி அப்பப்பவானும் கட்டி விடுங்கப்பா) அப்பா அம்மா அக்கா தங்கச்சி கூட்டிட்டு
போய் தொலையாதீங்க. (நல்ல வேளை things get beeped..lol)
3. Few illogical, lose threads hanging un attended and nobody bothers to inject sanity into it.
**
Lakshmi rai is really beautiful, trisha ? hmm... ok ok. Trisha's role was just a "decor".
verdict: நிச்சயமா ஒரு முறை பார்க்கலாம்.

Among the earlier releases, Mankatha and Engeyum Eppothum will be strengthened with more screens and shows.
The pre-Diwali season has started at the box-office, which means collections are going to take a nosedive.
People will be more interested in Diwali shopping than any form of entertainment. Still some of the backlog of earlier releases will be making it to the theatres.
The two small Tamil films of the week mainly in single screens are Uyirin Yedai 21 Ayiri and Keezhe Theru Kicha. Among the earlier releases, Mankatha and Engeyum Eppothum will be strengthened with more screens and shows.
Three dubbed films are also releasing this week.
The biggest among them is The Three Musketeers and its Tamil version Moonu Maaveerarukal.
The other dubbed attractions are Anbulla Kamal from Malayalam film 4 Friends and the Hindi action movie Azaan and its Tamil version called Asan!

Mankatha celebrates 50 days
2011-10-19 10:25:21
Last Updated: 2011-10-19 11:13:46
Today (Oct 19) Ajith’s Venkat Prabhu directed Cloud Nine’s Mankatha, distributed by Sun Pictures is celebrating 50 days run all over.
The film is 2011’s biggest hit so far at the box-office.
Mankatha is also Ajith’s biggest hit in his career. The film is a universal hit and has also changed the way Tamil film business is done.
It has brought in the new trade practice of going for a saturation release in maximum screens.
Commenting on the films stupendous success, producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri said: “ I’m proud to be the producer of Mankatha. Hats off to Ajith sir and my production team, without you guys this success would not have been possible.”

i think Vijay is the senior most..then Ajith in 92..Surya came only in 1996...movies also he has done only half of AJith and Vijay...but avar apadi solradhila thappu onnum theriyala...in BO he is up there with them..but mass kuraivu..want to see whether Surya carries the same craze if he gives couple of flops together..

Whenever there is an interview with Ajith or Vijay, U can find at least one question about their opinion/progress of other one. This has happened from the days from which they were projected as the next duo. Never they've boarded the bus wantedly. Originally Posted by Munsamy

Surya is having his own fanbase, hits, BO pull ect ect. My best wishes for him to continue this in future too. But why trying desperately like "Thalainagaram" Vadivelu to get into the Police Jeep. I couldn't understand.

If not for Mankatha Thala would have conceded too much ground to Surya. I dont think he can keep up the momentum with Billa 2. Thala is still not there when it comes to right choices.
For Vijay his last genuie hit was Pokiri which came nearly 5 years back.

When asked about his rivalry with Jiiva, Simbu answered "There is a difference between a star and an actor. People turn out to watch a star's film even if the film is a crap and watch an actor's film only when the film is good". Even when Vijay worked with SP Rajkumar, that Vettaikaran director, the films got a mass opening which the other wannabes can only dream of. Leave all, just imagine Vijay's film in ARM direction and Surya's film in Jeyam Raja's direction releasing this Diwali. That is the difference.

I know its hard to digest for thala and vijay fans, but the fact is that Surya has grown into a bankable STAR with good mass following, strong neutral fans support and a string of genuine hits at BO.
He has never been the subject of ridicule or hate except for a few frustrated rival fans.

Wait a nimit. It is not about Surya vs Vijay vs Ajith for me.
It is this non-sticky concept called "mass star" and the surefire formula of mass masala, that is guaranteed to succeed. Evne for top "mass stars", these movies seem to succeed in a pathetic ration. Yet, there is a lot of clamour for these and a inverse-snobbishness about "art films". In the end, what is the success ratio of such mass movies.(even after excluding mass masala formula movies from the lower rung stars like Bharath(which will have zero success ratio), this ratio is likely to be pathetic)
So, what are you proud about?

True and in TN and specially in TFI when everone calls some other person Anna, Maama. Appa, Amma, Periyappa, Chittappa etc.. this is not a big deal at all. Besides, from what ever I have seen, Surya talks about his brother Karthi only when reporters, anchors et al pose questions to him comparing him with Karthi. It's fine at least he doesnt go around and compare himself with any other actors or talk about his fan base or number 1, number 2 etc. And I also have not seen him overly appreciating fans and getting emotional about fans. Most of the time if not all the time he talks about his movies, his performance and his work and he has all the thaguthis to talk about it. What's wrong in that? He is one actor who speaks well and commands respect when ever he opens his mouth to speak. Even if he talks about his family it's fine - he surely has got a family which he can be proud of.

Read in a recent article, about Salman Khan's massive hits in the BO recently. He/She concluded the article with "Is Salman Khan the real King of Bollywood or is he just a passing cloud following the trend in the hyper-grown market of Bollywood?" Sensible people can figure out similarly how Singam, touted to be such a BO benchmark which it really is not.

Venkki, the question is with such mass power your mass stars give hits once in n movies. Appuram enna perumai ungalukku? What are you proud about? I am not a fan of Surya and the brand of "different" cinema he promotes (I.e) the murukkudoss types. But at the least, he has a few movies to be proud about.If mass pwoer is your source of pride about certain stars, the ratio of success should be atleast 75 percent as opposed to the current pathtic ration your mass stars show.Even that is empty pride.The thing is even with this mass power, kambiya pudikkama jeyikka mudiyala. Appuram enna perumai, garvam. Ellaam?

As Ajith would say , " naan cm aagavaa aasai paduren .. " ..
Mass power is something that can be highly valued only in politics ..
In Cinema , its much much better to have 20 " just fans " than 10 " hardcore fans " .. Surya might lack in hardcore fans category , but more than makes up for it with a terrific family crowd support ..

Gajini was offered to Ajith and later Surya did it - you know what happened.
Gemini was offered to Ajith and then to Vikram - it became a super duper hit.
I agree that some roles would fit some actors but those Actors force the directors to come up with something that would suit them and their limitaions. But still from the above examples we can very well say that even those "some roles" can be played successfully by some others too.
Whether you accept it or not - Surya literally shocked everybody with his performance in KK. Not a single soul expected him to deliver such a stunning performance. But he did. Though Nandha gave him a good break, it was KK that made him take off as a Star and rest is history.

Now if Ajith really wants to be in this situation he will have to really do a good story selection which not only the MASS likes but makes sure it runs for atleast 50-75 days where the family people can come and watch....
Has any Surya's movie, okay lets take surya's latest movie Singam, which is a blockbuster and compare with the collections of Ajith's latest movies Mankatha?
Siva/BM, can you post it?

haha Ayan, Singam = Mankatha, Billa, Dheena (the biggest hits of Ajith). Collection ellaam irukkattum but content wise Surya's mediocre stuff, which were even ridiculed by some Surya fans are equal to Ajith's flicks that are raved by his hardcore fans as his career bests. But I am sure no Surya fan would call Singam or Ayan as his career bests. This equation proves that Surya is not only a crowd puller but also when it comes to content he is far ahead of Ajith (and Vijay).

Cycle gap-la inga ellaarum Vijay-a Thala-ku equala pesuranga.
Vijay has never ever matched the opening of Thala....opening proves who has a bigger mass.
Even recent results points to much better returns for Thala.
But when it comes to results, Surya is way ahead of anyone.
Many of the posters mention here that Surya cannot sustain his position if he gives a few flops.
But I can bet that he will never give continuous flops....he is way too smart with his choices.....so for anyone who is hoping for his downfall.....better be prepared with some gelusil.

could 7am arivu change the figures or not, lets see after it happened. As of now, Originally Posted by leosimha
With such a great combo, extreme promos from 2 months back, with almost just half the show numbers of Mankatha, tickets are available for 7am arivu inside chennai multiplexes from 2nd day itself (already declared record breaking advance booking in ads, can expect many like this after release too).
No need to talk about M's multiplexes advance booking status.
just for example, Casino theatre added to the list very last minute (like this many theatres added). Casino name not included in any magazines adv,wall posters, even in the theatre itslef there was not even a single poster or flex about mankatha playing there even on the released date. Still all shows house full.
Ithukku thaan hardcore fans venum. This will happen irrespective of Venkat's, Vishnu's, KSR's, Chella's, Saran's. Its director's job to utilize it like how Venkat, Vishnu and KSR used.

IMO , hardcore fans are mostly youngsters and married and under 35 . Apart from them .. come to family .. Kids and Thaaikulam play a big part in bringing the whole family to theaters ..As far as i know ..Thaaikulam have soft corner for Surya and kids mostly like Vijay .. Ajith enjoyes less support here . That is why you see after a huge opening by HC fans , the momentum won't continue with family audience for Ajith .. Pasangalukko allathu veettukara ammakko pidichiruntha men are forced to go with family ..But if only man interested , mostly he will go alone considering ticket price .. I think surya has a edge in covering all 3 category moderately instead of covering only one category vigorously .
There is no doubt that Ajith is king of opening because of his huge no of hardcore fans ..but he is still weak in rest of the circle.

Siva,
Here I am not talking about any star. Now-a-days, the so-called family audiences prefer to watch the movies on hometheatres(DVD/through net) than theatres. When the movies are neat entertainers(5 to 10% of the movies in a year), then only the family audiences prefer those movies irrespective of the star value. But for the opening it requires HC Fans which is an added advantage for the so called stars. If the fan base is big and the movie is good, then it is easy to make the movie as a blockbuster. Else, the movie would've been a hit than blockbusters.

my point ----if an ajith film and a surya film releases together.ajith film will take a far better opening..and ippo trend saturation release....so it plays a big part...assume that both films are good...family will definitely go for both movies....ajith movie will be the winner because of the repeat audience(na oru 4 vaatti parpen),opening..simple...if both movies are bad appovum opening will help...

Source - http://ibnlive.in.com/news/7am-arivu...6042-8-66.htmlAjith turned 50 films old with 'Mankatha,' made with about 40 crores that reportedly raked in about 80 crores at the box-office. The film still manages a run at a few screens and in the meanwhile many others like Muran, Vaagai Sooda vaa and vandaan vendran released and vanished without so much as a mention.

i think radhika is a distbutor of the movie not a producer. If that is the case, she could divulge only distributor share......could be possible that the movie fetched 45C for distributors. In filmi business, it is distributor share which is more important. Mostly, a movie is termed hit/miss, based on distributor's profit.

Overall Surya >> Ajith >> Vijay (Here too I would say Vijay was leading Ajith before, but good opinion about Ajith off screen and ever charming look makes soft corner for most of the general people)
BTW, with Mankatha's Success before and after, Ajith was not part of any celebration Sun TV is doing and maintains his principles.. He is always going one step higher to me w.r.t off screen Image. Way ahead of any hero of Tamilnadu. Hats off

Speaking out of turn, I find this question ridiculously stupid.
Everywhere actors(should) team with good dir/prod/screen writers to give good memorable films. That's the basic of a good homework and shows an actor's interest in his project. What's the point in doing a film for any Tom/Dick/harry from the street?. The movie will be just a trash item in the huge pile of crap that's already existing in TFI.
P.S: I am not saying just by a good team the film will be good and if not the film will be bad.

Many of us expect satisfaction/comfortableness/principles in life for each and everything.... but, based on opportunity and survival, people adjust to things that come on their way... but very few stick to their satisfaction/comfortableness/principles, and live their life as they like....one such soul is Ajith, who wants to live his life/career within his comfort zone, for his satisfaction, without compromising with his principles. This is one more reason for my liking'ness towards Ajith. Originally Posted by ajithfederer

for instant take bala-Ajith incident ?
but a guy with good character can become good director, if the actor believes him.... thats what Ajith is doing... there are chances of for both hits and misses.... for Ajith satisfaction/comfortableness/principles , he is missing certain things.... nothing wrong in that.

தமிழ் சினிமாவின் உண்மை முகம்!
முன்பெல்லாம் தீபாவளி, பொங்கல் பண்டிகைகள் வந்தாலே சினிமா ரசிகர்களுக்கும் திரையுலகினருக்கும் ஒரே கொண்டாட்டமாக இருக்கும். பண்டிகை நாள்களில் பெரிய பட்ஜெட், சிறிய பட்ஜெட் என குறைந்தது 10 படங்களாவது ரிலீஸ் ஆகும். ஆனால் இப்போதோ நிலைமை மாறிவிட்டது. அதிலும் இந்தத் தீபாவளிக்கு "ஏழாம் அறிவு', "வேலாயுதம்', "ரா ஒன்' என மூன்று படங்கள்தான் வெளியாகின்றன. பல படங்களுக்குத் தியேட்டர்களே கிடைக்கவில்லை. சில ஸ்டார் நடிகர்களின் படங்கள் கூட "ஏழாம் அறிவு' ஃபோபியா காரணமாக போட்டியிலிருந்து விலகிக்கொண்டன.
சினிமாத் தொழில் நசிந்து வருவதற்கும் தியேட்டர்களில் முன்பு போல் கூட்டம் கூடாததற்கும் அங்கு வசூலிக்கப்படும் அடாவடியான டிக்கெட் கட்டணமே காரணம் என்பதுதான் ரசிகர்கள் மற்றும் பொதுமக்கள் பார்வையில் பிரதானமாக இருக்கிறது.
மல்டிபிளக்ஸ் காம்ப்ளக்ஸ்களில் வசதி படைத்தவர்கள்தான் செல்ல முடியும் என்ற நிலை. சரி... சாதாரண, நடுத்தர வசதியுள்ள திரையரங்குகளுக்கோ, புறநகர்ப் பகுதிகளில் உள்ள திரையரங்குகளுக்கோ செல்லலாம் என்றால் அங்கு நடக்கும் கூத்து இதை விட பயங்கரமாகவுள்ளது.
ரூ.10, ரூ.15-க்கு டிக்கெட் கொடுப்பார்கள்; ஆனால் நம்மிடம் ரூ.50 முதல் ரூ.80 வரை வசூலித்துவிடுகிறார்கள். அதிலும் நட்சத்திர நடிகர்களின் படங்கள் என்றால் சொல்லவே வேண்டாம்; குறைந்த பட்சம் ரூ.100 முதல் ரூ.500 வரை கறந்துவிடுகிறார்கள். ஆனால் நமக்குத் தருவது ஒரு ரிசர்வேஷன் ஸ்லிப்பையோ அல்லது ரூ.15, ரூ.20 என அச்சிடப்பட்ட டிக்கெட்டையோதான்.
நமக்குத் தரும் அந்த ரூ.15, ரூ.20 டிக்கெட் கட்டணத்தின் அடிப்படையில்தான் அரசுக்கு செலுத்த வேண்டிய வரியை அளிக்கிறார்கள். அதைத்தான் டி.சி.ஆர் எனப்படும் டெய்லி கலெக்ஷன் ரிப்போர்ட்டிலும் குறிப்பிடுகிறார்கள்.
அதிகமாக வசூலிக்கும் தொகையை தியேட்டர்காரர்கள் எடுத்துக்கொள்கிறார்களா? விநியோகஸ்தர்கள் எடுத்துக்கொள்கிறார்களா? அதில் தயாரிப்பாளர்களுக்குப் பங்கு இருக்கிறதா என்பதெல்லாம் சம்பந்தப்பட்டவர்களுக்குத்தான் வெளிச்சம்.
இப்படி திரையரங்குகளில் கொள்ளை நடக்கும்போது நடுத்தர மக்கள் திருட்டு வி.சி.டி. பக்கம்தான் செல்வார்கள்!
ஊரறிந்த இந்த ரகசியம் அரசுக்குத் தெரியாதா? சம்பந்தப்பட்ட துறை சார்ந்த அதிகாரிகளுக்குத் தெரியாதா? என்பதுதான் பலருடைய கருத்து.
அஜித் நடித்து வெளியான "மங்காத்தா' படம் வசூலில் வெற்றி பெற்றதாகத்தான் சினிமாத்துறையில் பேச்சு. செங்கல்பட்டு, காஞ்சிபுரம், திருவண்ணாமலை, திருவள்ளூர் மாவட்டத் திரைப்பட விநியோகப் பகுதிகளில் முதல் 14 நாள்களில் "மங்காத்தா' படத்தைப் பார்த்தவர்களின் எண்ணிக்கை 10 லட்சத்து 52 ஆயிரத்து 763. மொத்த வசூல் ரூ.9 கோடியே 24 லட்சத்து 37 ஆயிரத்து 571.
வெளிப்படையாகப் பார்த்தால் "அட' என ஆச்சரியம் அடையலாம். ஆனால் இந்த வசூல் சாத்தியம்தானா? சத்தியமாக இல்லை! அதாவது அரசு நிர்ணயித்த டிக்கெட் கட்டணத்தின் படி வசூல் செய்திருந்தால் இந்தத் தொகை வசூலாகியிருக்க முடியாது. மேற்கூறப்பட்ட திரையரங்குகளில் 14 நாள்களில் இத்தனை லட்சம் பார்வையாளர்கள் படத்தைப் பார்த்திருக்கவே முடியாது. அப்படியானால்... திரையரங்குகளில் அரசு அனுமதித்த பார்வையாளர்களை விட கூடுதலாகப் பலர் படத்தைப் பார்த்துள்ளனர். வசூலான தொகையையும் பார்வையாளர்கள் செலுத்திய கட்டணத்தையும் கணக்கிட்டுப் பார்த்தால் ஒரு டிக்கெட் சராசரியாக ரூ.87.80-க்கு விற்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. ஆனால், இந்தப் பகுதிகளில் எந்த ஒரு திரையரங்கிலும் (அரசு நிர்ணயத்தபடி) ரூ.50-க்கு மேல் டிக்கெட் கட்டணம் கிடையாது என்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது. இங்கு இரண்டு விதி மீறல்கள் நடந்துள்ளன.
ஒன்று... அரசு நிர்ணயித்த கட்டணத்தை விட அதிக கட்டணத்தில் டிக்கெட்டுகள் விற்கப்பட்டுள்ளன. "மங்காத்தா' படத்துக்காக அஜித் ரூ.10 கோடி சம்பளம் பெற்றார். அதற்கு முறையாக வரியும் செலுத்தப்பட்டுவிட்டது. சினிமாவில் சம்பளத்தை கறுப்புப் பணமாகப் பெறாத மிகச் சிலருள் அஜித்தும் ஒருவர். ஆனாலும் அவர் நடித்த படத்தின் வசூல் முறைகேடான வழியில் ஈட்டப்பட்டிருக்கிறதே, இதற்கு என்ன சொல்லுவது? யார் மீது நடவடிக்கை எடுப்பது?
இரண்டு... அனுமதித்த பார்வையாளர்களை விட அதிக நபர்களைத் திரையரங்கினுள் அனுமதித்தது. அவர்களிடமிருந்து வசூலான டிக்கெட் கட்டணம் கணக்கில் வந்திருக்குமா என்ற கேள்வியும் எழாமல் இல்லை.
ஏனென்றால் திரைப்படங்கள் மூலம் பெறப்படும் கேளிக்கை வரியை அந்தந்தப் பகுதிகளில் உள்ள உள்ளாட்சி அமைப்புகளின் வளர்ச்சிக்குப் பயன்படுத்த முடியும் என்பதுதான் உண்மை. ஆக, சினிமா மூலம் கிடைக்கும் கேளிக்கை வரி மக்களைச் சென்றடைய இது ஒரு வழி. அது அடைக்கப்பட்டு விடுகிறது.
அளவுக்கு அதிகமான பார்வையாளர்களை அரங்கத்தில் அடைத்து வைப்பதன் மூலம் விபத்துக்கும் வழிகோலுகின்றனர் திரையரங்க உரிமையாளர்கள். ஏதாவது அசம்பாவிதம் நடந்தால் யார் பொறுப்பேற்பது?
இனி, இந்தத் தீபாவளிப் படங்கள் பற்றி ஒரு சிறு அலசல். மிகப் பெரிய எதிர்பார்ப்பை ஏற்படுத்தியுள்ள "ஏழாம் அறிவு' படத்தின் பட்ஜெட் சுமார் ரூ.65 கோடி. சுமார் 350-க்கும் மேற்பட்ட திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியாகும் இந்தப் படம், தமிழகத்தில் மட்டும் ரூ.65 கோடிக்கு மேல் விற்பனையாகியுள்ளது. எஃப்.எம்.எஸ்., இதர உரிமைகளோடு சேர்த்து சுமார் ரூ.85 கோடி வரை விற்பனையாகியுள்ளது. அரசு நிர்ணயித்த தொகையின்படி டிக்கெட் கட்டணம் விற்கப்பட்டு போட்ட முதல் தொகையை எடுக்க வேண்டுமானால் (கேளிக்கை வரி, எக்ஸிபிட்டர்ஸ் ஷேர் ஆகியவற்றை உள்ளடக்கி) இந்தப் படம் தமிழகத்தில் சுமார் ரூ.78 கோடி வரை வசூலாக வேண்டும்.
"வேலாயுதம்' படத்தின் பட்ஜெட் சுமார் ரூ.40 கோடி. சுமார் 300 திரையரங்குகளில் வெளியாகும் இந்தப் படம், தமிழகத்தில் ரூ.45 கோடி வரை விற்பனையாகியுள்ளது. இந்தப் படத்தின் அசலை எடுக்க வேண்டுமானால் சுமார் ரூ.55 கோடிக்கு மேல் (கேளிக்கை வரி, எக்ஸிபிட்டர் ஷேர் உள்ளடக்கி) வசூலாக வேண்டும்.
அரசு நிர்ணயித்த கட்டணத்தின்படி டிக்கெட் கட்டணம் விற்கப்பட்டால் ஒன்றரை ஆண்டுகளுக்கு மேல் திரையரங்குகளில் அரங்கு நிறைந்த காட்சிகளாக ஓடினால்தான் இந்தப் படங்களால் மேலே குறிப்பிட்ட வசூலை எட்ட முடியும். இது சாத்தியமாகுமா? பிறகு எப்படி 20, 30 நாள்களில் பணத்தை எடுக்க முடிகிறது?
அதிக கட்டணத்தில் டிக்கெட்டுகளை விற்பதால்தான் என்கிறார் தமிழ்த் திரைப்படங்களின் வியாபார ஆய்வாளரும் தமிழ்நாடு எண்டர்டெயின்மெண்ட் இதழின் ஆசிரியருமான ஆர்.ராமானுஜம்.
இது குறித்து திரையரங்கு உரிமையாளர்கள் தரப்பில் கேட்டபோது...
""படத்தின் தயாரிப்பு செலவு அதாவது பட்ஜெட் அதிகரிப்பதற்கு முக்கியக் காரணம், அதில் பெரும் தொகை நடிகர்களின் சம்பளத்துக்கே சென்றுவிடுகிறது. இது தயாரிப்பாளர்களுக்கு நெருக்கடியை அளிக்க அவர் திரையரங்கு உரிமையாளர்களிடம் அதிக எம்.ஜி. (மினிமம் கியாரண்ட்டி) கேட்கிறார். திரையரங்கு உரிமையாளர் என்ன செய்வார்? அதிக விலை கொடுத்து வாங்கிய படத்துக்கு நிர்ணயித்ததை விட அதிக கட்டணத்தைத்தான் வாங்குவார். மல்டிபிளக்ஸ் தவிர்த்த தியேட்டர்களில் அதிகக் கட்டணம் வசூலிக்கப்படுவதற்கு தயாரிப்பாளர்களும் அதிக சம்பளம் வாங்கும் நடிகர்களும்தான் காரணமே தவிர, விநியோகஸ்தர்களும் தியேட்டர்காரர்களும் கிடையாது'' என்கிறார்கள்.
இதற்கு என்ன தீர்வு? கடந்த சில ஆண்டுகளாக உயர்த்தப்படாமல் இருக்கும் தியேட்டர் டிக்கெட் கட்டணத்தை நியாயமான அளவுக்கு உயர்த்த வேண்டும். அரசு நிர்ணயித்த கட்டணத்தைதான் வசூலிக்க வேண்டும் என கடுமையான உத்தரவு பிறப்பிக்க வேண்டும். அதை மீறும் திரையரங்குகளின் மீது உடனடியாக நடவடிக்கை எடுக்க வேண்டும்.
மின்சார வாரியம், மாநகராட்சி உள்ளிட்ட பல அரசு அலுவலகங்களில் பொதுமக்களுக்கு ஏதேனும் குறை இருந்தால் உடனே முறையிடலாம் என அதிகாரிகளின் பெயர், தொலைபேசி எண், அலுவலக முகவரி போன்றவற்றை வைத்திருப்பது போல ஒவ்வொரு திரையரங்கிலும் அரசு நிர்ணயித்த கட்டணத் தொகை, அனுமதிக்கப்பட்ட பார்வையாளர்கள் எண்ணிக்கை ஆகியவற்றைக் குறிப்பிட்டு அதைப் பின்பற்றாமல் மீறுவோர் மீது புகார் அளிக்க தொடர்பு கொள்ள வேண்டிய அதிகாரிகள், அவர்களது தொலைபேசி எண்கள் உள்ளிட்டவற்றைக் குறிப்பிட்டு ஒரு வினைல் போர்டு வைக்கலாம்.
இப்படிச் செய்தால் முறையான டிக்கெட் கட்டணம் வசூலிக்கப்படும். அப்போது திரையரங்கு உரிமையாளர்கள் அதிக எம்.ஜி. கொடுத்து படத்தை வாங்க மாட்டார்கள். இதன் விளைவாக தயாரிப்பாளர்கள், நடிகர்களுக்கு அதிக சம்பளம் தர மாட்டார்கள். அதனால் படங்களின் தயாரிப்புச் செலவு குறையும். அனைத்தும் ஒருங்கே அமையும்போது ரசிகர்கள் தாமாகவே தியேட்டர்களுக்கு வருவர். சிறிய பட்ஜெட், பெரிய பட்ஜெட் என அனைத்துத் தரப்பு படங்களும் நன்றாக ஓடும். சாதனை பாதி; வேதனை பாதி என இரட்டைக் குதிரைகளில் கடிவாளமில்லாமல் பயணித்துக்கொண்டிருக்கும் தமிழ்த் திரையுலகம் தழைத்தோங்குவதற்கான அறிகுறிகள் தெரியத் தொடங்கும்.

Ajith turned 50 films old with 'Mankatha,' made with about 40 crores that reportedly raked in about 80 crores at the box-office. The film still manages a run at a few screens and in the meanwhile many others like Muran, Vaagai Sooda vaa and vandaan vendran released and vanished without so much as a mention.

I joined the hub today and hence my late review.
I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and Ajith was simply superb. Re-recording was excellent. This was the only Ajith movie I watched twice in theater. Venkat Prabhu's comic moments was here and there but it was Ajith who carried the movie completely on his shoulders.

அஜீத் வந்தா கொண்டாட்டம் !
http://cinema.vikatan.com/images/art...8mankathaa.jpg
அஜீத் நடிப்பில் வெளிவந்த 50வது படம் ' மங்காத்தா' . அர்ஜுன், த்ரிஷா, லட்சுமிராய், பிரேம்ஜி என ஒரு நட்சத்திர பட்டாளமே நடித்த படம். வெங்கட்பிரபு இயக்க, யுவன் சங்கர் ராஜா இசையமைத்து இருந்தார். தயாநிதி அழகிரி தயாரிக்க, சன் பிக்சர்ஸ் வெளியிட்டது.
அஜீத்தின் வித்தியாசமான நடிப்பால் இப்படம் தமிழகத்தில் பெரும் வரவேற்பை பெற்றது.
அஜீத்தைப் பொருத்தவரை அவர் எந்த ஒரு பொது நிகழ்ச்சிகளிலும் கலந்து கொள்வதில்லை. ' மங்காத்தா ' படத்தின் இசை வெளியீட்டு விழா கூட ஒரு எஃப்.எம் ஸ்டேஷனில் சிம்பிளாக நடைபெற்றது. பட வெளியீட்டிற்கு பிரச்னை எழுந்த போது கூட அஜீத் எந்த ஒரு அறிக்கையும் தரவில்லை.
படம் வெளியாகி வரவேற்பை பெற்ற இந்த வேளையில் தயாரிப்பாளர் தயாநிதி 'மங்காத்தா' படத்தின் 100வது விழாவை கொண்டாட திட்டமிட்டு இருக்கிறார்.
இது குறித்து தயாநிதி அழகிரி தனது டிவிட்டர் இணையத்தில் " அஜீத் எந்த ஒரு பொது நிகழ்ச்சியிலும் கலந்து கொள்வது இல்லை. படத்தின் நாயகன் இல்லாமல் 'மங்காத்தா' படத்தின் 100வது நாள் விழாவை கொண்டாடுவதில் அர்த்தம் இல்லை.
அஜீத் சார் நடித்து வெளிவந்த படங்களில் ' மங்காத்தா ' படம் தான் அதிகமாக வசூல் செய்து இருக்கிறது. அப்படத்தினை எனது நிறுவனம் தயாரித்ததில் பெருமை கொள்கிறேன்.
தல ரசிகர்கள் அவரை 'மங்காத்தா' படத்தின் 100வது நாள் விழாவிற்கு அழைத்து வருவதாக இருந்தால், 100வது நாள் விழாவை பிரம்மாண்டமாக ஏற்பாடு செய்ய காத்திருக்கிறோம் " என்று தெரிவித்துள்ளார்.

No doubt, it is one of the biggest hits.. But did it run 100 days in any theaters? I don't think Sun TV is interested in such records and make movie run 100 days in one or two theaters for just the sake of it like how UN Stalin or DN Azhagiri does.. Or is it just people mentioning from the release date it is 100 days ?

From: selvakumar on 24th December 2011 09:28 PM [Full View]
Beg to differ.
Fan clubs whether organized or unorganized provide the vital opening required for the star to survive the initial few weeks and keep his star power alive.
It is required to sustain his market as well. If it is not present, he will become a normal actor (10 oda 11nnu). Over time, he will have to step down and play roles like a character artist.
So, fan clubs are essential for a STAR or mass hero. What Thala had proved is that he doesn't need organized official fan clubs to succeed at the box office. He can get the same opening with the help of his fans. Credit goes to Ajith fans who made it happen

2011: A bleak streak for Tamil film industry
Link - http://ibnlive.in.com/news/2011-a-bl...5343-8-68.html
2011: A bleak streak for Tamil film industry
Chennai: The Tamil film industry, true to its prolific image, has churned out as many as 135 films this year. But the disappointing news: despite the spiralling numbers, box office success has been hitting rock bottom. According to trade pundits, while total investment has been about Rs.600 crore, filmmakers failed to recover even half the investment.
"Jiiva's 'Ko', Karthi's 'Siruthai', Ajith's 'Mankatha' and Surya's '7aum Arivu' have made good collections," says R. Ramanujan, editor of Tamil Nadu Entertainment Trade Magazine.
" '7aum Arivu', a science fiction thriller written and directed by A. R. Murugadoss, hasn't fetched profit for the distributors, while actioner 'Mankatha' was a loss making venture for its producers despite it collecting around Rs.50 crore at the box office," he added.
Vijay's two releases - 'Kavalan', a remake of Malayalam hit 'Bodyguard', which was also screened at the Shanghai Film Festival, and masala movie 'Velayudham' were reported to be hits, but insiders in the trade circle informed that while both movies collected more profit than the actor's recent films at the box office, they haven't seen any profit.
"So is the case with Vikram-Anushka starrer 'Deiva Thirumagal," added the source.
"The problem with big stars' films is that the budget shoots up, hence the ROI (return on investment) becomes difficult. Any film that features a leading star like Vijay or Surya or Ajith costs a minimum Rs.15 crore. Sometimes the budget touches even the Rs.30-crore mark. So they have to be blockbusters to get back the money back," said Ramanujam.
The advantage with these films is that they enjoy good opening, hence distributors readily cough up more money to procure the rights. It helps producers to recover the cost. However, if the films fail to click, distributors have to put up with losses.
It happened with '7aum Arivu', which was reportedly made at a budget of Rs. 80 crore and sold for approximately Rs.90 crore, but when it came to box office, it failed to collect even Rs.40 crore, according to the sources.
The worldwide collection of the film is said to be about Rs.82 crore and it has been a loss-making business prospect for distributors and exhibitors.
R.S. Anthanan, a senior film journalist, says that disturbing trend is 'over budget'.
"Many directors exceed the initial budget, which is beyond the marketability of the stars involved in the films. It happens with directors like Bala and Vasantha Balan, who get critical acclaim, but their producers suffer loss because of over expenditure," he added.
This shows that the films with good content cannot recover money if the budget inflates beyond a point.
Recently, producer Ascor Ravichandran reportedly decided to drop a project starring young actor Nakul after the director spent Rs.5 crore even before completing a quarter of the film because the actor is not worth Rs.10 crore.
Sathyaraj, a senior actor, sums up by saying: "Producers should at any cost avoid accepting a budget more than the established business for the stars involved. If they stick to this rule, the losses would be very less."
Sathyaraj has been saying this at public gatherings, but the influence of the big stars and directors is so telling that the producers cannot hold any control over them.

2011 - முதலிடம் மங்காத்தா
சனி, 31 டிசம்பர் 2011( 17:10 ist )
எந்திரன், சிவா*ஜிக்குப் பிறகு நாங்கதான் என்று வேலாயுதமும், 7 ஆம் அறிவும் அடித்துக் கொண்டாலும் உண்மையில் இந்த வருடத்தின் மாஸ் கலெக்சன் மங்காத்தாதானாம்.
அ*ஜீத்தின் இந்த கடத்தல் கதை சுமார் 130 கோடிகளை வசூலித்துள்ளது. வேலாயுதம், 7 ஆம் அறிவு படங்களைவிட குறைவான பட்ஜெட்டில் தயாரான படம் என்பதால் லாப சதவீதமும் அதிகம். அனைத்துத் தரப்பினரும் இந்தப் படத்தால் அதிக லாபம் சம்பாதித்துள்ளனர். இதற்கு ஒரேயொரு புள்ளிவிவரக் கணக்கே போதுமானது.
தென் தமிழகத்திலுள்ள ஒரு திரையரங்கு பத்து லட்சத்திற்கு மங்காத்தாவை வாங்கியது. இத்திரையரங்கின் முதல்நாள் கலெக்சன் மட்டும் எட்டரை லட்சங்கள். முப்பது நாட்கள் மங்காத்தா அந்தத் திரையரங்கில் ஓடியது. எனில் லாபத்தை நீங்களே கணக்கிட்டுக் கொள்ளுங்கள்.

Mankatha re-released in Tamilnadu
2011’s blockbuster, Ajith’s Mankatha directed by Venkat Prabhu has been re-released in select towns in Tamil Nadu from January 3.
The failure of some recent big Tamil movies has forced the exhibitors to bring back Mankatha.
The theatre owners were looking for content till Pongal films Vijay’s Nanban and UTV’s Vettai releases.
Mankatha is proving to be a good “re-run gap padam” as they call it in the trade.
Says a prominent single screen theatre owner in Coimbatore : “ Mankatha has been declared the number one hit of 2011 by the trade and the media. And since it has not been shown on TV there is a repeat audience for it.”

Yuvan too deserved credit. Neatly complemented by all. Highlight is, this film didn't even complete 70 days in chennai/didn't have 50th day posters in chennai, where Ajith could have easily influenced (being 50th film) and made it to run for 200 days. Ajith for not doing anything like that and maintained his/our esteem, still made all media to declare it as the highest grosser of 2011.

படத்தில் 2 காட்சிகளில் மட்டுமே தியேட்டரே கை தட்டலால் அதிர்ந்தது.2-வதாக மங்காத்தா படத்தின் காட்சியில் அஜீத் தோன்றும்போதும் தியேட்டரே ஆடிப் போனது. ரஜினிக்கு பின்பு ஸ்டைல் என்றால் அது அஜீத்துதான் என்றாகிவிட்டது.. அனைத்துவகை ரசிகர்களுக்கும் பிடித்துவிட்டது.. இதனையே அஜீத் தொடர்ந்தால் அவருக்கும் நல்லது..!

I saw the movie at Satyam theatre in Hyderabad. 80% full and needless say none of the regular telugu film lovers found it comfortable. They were shocked to see the hero playing a role like this and couldn't digest it towards the end. To me the dubbing voice looked like Mano

shabba....I am tired of Mankaatha. Unlike other Ajith movies this movie got over exposed in media, at least in internet. Arambaththula santhoshma irunthathu poga poga too much ayiduchi.....

Hats of to VP to have made many such scenes in the movie understanding the pulse of the viewers. In my opinion, he maintained a steady graph by alimenting each and every scene with different ingredients. Thats why the movie was catchy (memorable or not - I don't know) eventhough there was nothing new in it. This is a good exemple of "naration in accord with the audience" Originally Posted by raghavendran
