Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya @ VTv, a movie made for lovers and a movie that bought in the real feel of lovers across the globe. We are proud to say that the movie has crossed the 125 days mark, which no other tamil movie in the recent time has done. In a period where, running a movie for 50 days finds to be a hard struggle, VTv has crossed the golden sign with the praise and support from the audience.

We thank each and every one of the Audience, Press, Online portals, Fans, Friends and Lovers for making this happen.

The video presented above was done by Arvin our Creative Moderator. We had little time, so we were not able to make a movie presentation. Fans who are good at it, can make a video presentation with the audio. The audio presentation carries the extreme characterization of the character Karthik in the movie.

It is speculated that our Thalaivan Yss Silambarasan has been signed for two consecutive movies under Dhayanithi Alagiri's Cloud Nine Movies.

As per our sources, Simbu will first complete a movie under Lingusamy, which has Yuvan scoring the music and later Podaa Podi at London. This time it is not gonna be Canada.

And here is the surprise, after completing Podaa Podi under Shananya Tele Films, it is said that our hero Silambarasan will do a movie under Vetrimaaran of Polladhavan fame, which has the music of G.V.Prakash.  This again under Cloud Nine Movies. It is also said the movie is titled Vada Chennai and the story revolves  in and around Chennai, and the hero is portrayed as a son born to a Maarwaadi Father and a Tamil House Maid.

We still have not got the confirmations, but our sources still remain strong and evident. It is said, that Karthik Sivakumar was first approached and that he was later replaced by Simbu.

At the end of Eeram, VTV started and his script book was given to me. While reading it, I found it so interesting and inspiring. It was new and fresh. I had not seen a genre like that in cinema and it was conversational, something he also explained. He wanted a lot to be created visually and there would be great scope for visual and music. Working with him gave me the opportunity to have a lot of interaction with him. On the sets, he does not have the director feel, l have worked with many directors but Gautham is like the CEO of a company, very humble and quiet on the spot. No-one knows shooting is happening. He is so soft and gives freedom to execute something in the script if its justified.

For instance for the title shoot of VTV, we shot 200ft with crane up. When we saw the location I felt it would be good as a concept, he said ok though it was expensive. We had to hire an agela crane, take it to Kerala for just that one complicated shot to reveal the church. He gives a lot of freedom and inspires you a lot while narrating the scene or in the script.

He gave me the opportunity to use a lot of wide angle shots, scope and space for camera movements. This script he said it should be very visual and we made a color palette. Since I had already done this in Eeram, I was very happy to hear it from him and after doing so much dark, he wanted white, this gave me more energy. Usually, a love subject is colorful but he wanted white and first I could not understand. However, once I read the script, the character is Syrian Christian and many things about Jessie are white, the church white for instance. We searched a lot for white, the Thiruvanmiyur house gave us a white backdrop and so did the 450-year old Church where we got permission after a lot of persuasion and donation. Malta is an off white island city and this suited our color palette.

What was your best shot in VTV?

Going by the feedback, the Malta songs and New York were well-appreciated. In the Mannipaaya song, there is a lead scene, a night scene across the backwaters where Simbhu jumps over the wall to see Trisha and then they both sit on a lawn and talk. This is followed by an intense scene where they kiss and the song begins. He goes on the boat after this; we underplayed the moonlight and the place Allepey was new. Many appreciated this. I like this night effect scene.

How is Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa different from other films?

From the Tamil films I have come across, this has a very different screenplay and treatment. Usually, there are a lot of artistes, an action block and even in a love element; there might be vengeance and a lot of negative elements. Suppose they are not there, it would become a family drama. This script breaks all this. There are two characters and the only thing between them is love. The two characters keep talking to each other throughout the film, the supporting cast is very less, the cameraman character is the only major one and worked out well. Parents have a small role. This two character drama was new and interesting and it was wonderful working with artistes who had a lot of experience. I had a high energy level and confidence that I could give good visuals as it had such as structure.


How did you manage to give Simbhu an image makeover?

Many have asked this question. Trisha and Simbu look very good. We have done a lot of things that were not done in his earlier films. Basically, we decided his look. Hrithik Roshan’s hairstylist gave him the haircut. Nalini’s input was a lot and she gave him casual clothes generally middle class. She did not select them like a hero’s costume. Before shooting, his look was set and on my side, I planned and fixed the lighting pattern. The full film would be shot in sunlight and available light, back or direct. Even when scenes were shot at home, we decided to make it look like sunlight streamed in. White would look pure when the sunlight fell on it and shadows cast on it.

Unlike normal commercial films, we never gave Simbu special lighting but used a lot of available light, the reason for success of the makeover. In many places the duo were talking and the camera placed at a distance. In fact, many felt that it looked like two lovers who were captured on screen without their knowledge and this was appreciated. The reason is good planning without disturbing them with too much light and working in available light, maybe this looked fresh and new. Generally, for a hero, a lot of glow is used or he is given a backlight, both of which we avoided. Same goes for Trisha, her main scenes were done in available light. Only in the song sequences we have tried the glow because in his imagination we wanted her to look ravishing.

We selected good lighting conditions. I got enough co-operations from all three, Simbhu, Gautham and Trisha. When shooting in available light, when the sun’s direction changes, the continuity will change, usually, the sun will stay in a single angle only one or two hours but they completed the scene within that time frame. Generally other directors would take a lot of time and lot of shots, track movement and complicate it before finishing the scene. However, Gautham understood that would be good in available light and within one hour finished even big scenes. No rehearsals or retakes and many shots were okayed in a single take and this was good for the continuity and realism of the film.

Podaa Podi, a quite familiar tamil word and a expected word for the fans of Style Icon, Yss Thalaivan Silambarasan. It was announced years back on 2008 that the movie would be shot at Canada and would be released by February 14th of 2009.

But the time was not aspire at that season and the movie, was thrown at shelves for almost a year now. After the successful presentation of Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya, Simbu now joins with the newbie Vignesh Shiva, who is also a childhood friend of his.

The music is said to be from the boards of Dharan an key master when it comes to peppy and romantic numbers.

The Producers Shananya Tele films have confirmed the news that Podaa Podi is officially starting today with pooja and other corporate level work. It is said they are planning to shoot a month from now.

The place where the shoot will start has not been mentioned, but the sources say it will be at Canada. London was first preferred but later it was said it was avoided as the climate is hot at the moment there.

Varalakshmi the daughter of Supreme Star Sarath Kumar is back at Podaa Podi and this denies her leaving off from Podaa Podi by media and as said at Simbucentral.

We will post more updates on the movie and its locations as soon as possible. Have a great weekend. Cheers.

VTV is one nice movie which I've seen in the recent days. Good movies are in dearth as mass heroism has taken the front seat in Kollywood. Even Bharath like actors who did great movies like Boys, Kadhal have taken the boat and falling flat, quite regularly.

In this era of such heroes, Gautham has converted Silambarasan who used to be a mass hero who usually has

- 5 fight scenes where he uproots the lamp post and smacks the villains

- 4 songs with a heroine running around a tree

- 3 Heroism scenes where he speaks 1000 punch dialogues

- 2 overacts to the minimum

- 1 love making scene where he bites heroine's lip like a Pitta bread.

to a 'real hero'. Thanks to Gautham for that! Silambarasan you were wonderful in both acting and dance! You'll go places if you continue this.

Gautham has made good use of the genius called Rahman to the core. Be it Hosanna the popular song to 'Omana penne, VTV is heaven in my ears Amazing picturisation to complement the. songs made it an absolute delight to watch. Hey Guys, those who went their ciggie breaks, you missed good songs

One line comedy was the order of the day in VTV. Gautham even takes the micky out of himself where he says 'Yaaru antha tamil padathula english pesa vachu padam edupaare avara?' Appreciate your courage and humour!

This column can't be finished without mentioning Trisha. What a beauty! I You were truly, really, marvellously amazing.

But the movie has it's own weaknesses as well. I wouldn't say dragging second-half as many people have been saying or the repetitive dialogues or the inconsistent Trisha character. It’s the same old love story and a guy desperately trying to come good in Kollywood. The pace at which Karthik gets introduced to director and gets up the ladder is a bit unreal, as it doesn’t happen in Kollywood.

But Gautham has well hidden all these defects if I can say and has given us a real gem and potentially blockbuster.

Thanks,
Swami

It seems Simbu is keeping his next movie in back light. Some say it is Pooda Poodi and some say it will be his own Vaaliban. But in a recent article that was published in a leading online portal, it states it would a Lingusamy’s flm that Simbu will star in. It is also stated that it will be produced by Tirupati Brothers. Notedly it also ends up saying that Brinda Sarathy would Pen the dialogues for the movie.
