Hi folks…….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

‘Subramaniyapuram’ has been running to packed cinema houses ever since it was released in July 2008. It is the story of friendship and its ultimate consequences has run to full houses, beating even bigger productions that boasted of bigger stars.

‘Subramaniyapuram’, set in small-town Madurai of the early 1980s, enthralled adults who came of age in the era of bell-bottoms, big beards and clashing colors. It was released in a small number of theatres initially but seeing the reception it got distributors and theatre owners alike decided to bring in more number of prints and squeeze in more shows.
 
The film has indeed tasted stupendous success throughout Tamil Nadu, all without much of the big budget publicity that marks extravagant productions. Following all this unexpected success, the overwhelmed cast and crew of Subramaniyapuram celebrated its 100 days function at Sathyam Cinemas. One of the main highlights of the evening was when Belly Raj and Deepa Mariam crooned the ever green lovesong “Kangal Irandal…” from the movie.

Hi friends……….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ullaga Nayagan Kamal Haasan, who heralded many novel makeup techniques to Kollywood through ‘Dasavathaaram’, is introducing spray-makeup technique through ‘Marmayogi’.

In this technique, the makeup to be applied is sprayed using a special pump instead of being dabbed on using an applicator or sponge or mask. This technique’s advantage over the conventional technique is that it ensures uniformity of the makeup applied and is not too obvious. So it’s possible to see a nice film with this technique soon at theatres.

Director Shankar’s mega movie ‘Robot’, starring Superstar Rajnikanth, has been renamed as ‘Enthiram’. However, Shankar has retained the original title as the sub-title. The movie, following the style of ‘Sivaji: The Boss’, has been rechristened as ‘Enthiram: the Robot’.
The film, which is arguably the first full fledged sci-fi film in Tamil, is said to be based on two novels written by late Sujatha.
Rajnikanth had earlier announced that the film, produced by London-based Aingaran Films International (P) Ltd., would get a Tamil title soon. The Tamil title was not intended to get the tax-exemption, but to honour the State Government’s commitment to patronize films with Tamil titles.  ‘Eyanthira’ and ‘Eyanthiran’ were earlier considered and the final choice fell on the title ‘Enthiram – The Robot’.
Three photo-shoots have been held to promote the film, including one that was shot in Hollywood in U.S. last week.  The shooting is expected to kick off in Brazil from September 6 onwards.
Shankar’s team is already in Brazil to oversee the arrangements made.  Shankar, Rajnikanth and other actors and crew members are expected to leave for Brazil on 5th while Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan is expected to land in Brazil on 7th.
Produced at a whopping budget of Rs.140 crore, the film is said to be the most expensive film made in India in any language till date.
