அஜீத்தின் மங்காத்தா படத்திற்கு சிக்கல்!

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 அழகி பேனரில் படத்தை வாங்குவதற்கும், அதனை ரிலீஸ் செய்வதற்கும் விநியோகஸ்தர்களும், தியேட்டர் அதிபர்களும் தயங்கி வருவதாக கூறப்படுகிறது. இதனால் என்ன செய்வது என்று தெரியாமல் மங்காத்தா படக்குழு முழித்து கொண்டு இருக்கிறது.

இதுஒருபுறம் இருக்க, மற்றொரு புறம் அஜீத்தே தனது சொந்தப் பொறுப்பில் இந்தபடத்தை 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.

Mankatha for Independence Day

With the entire town curiously looking out for Ajith Kumar’s Mankatha, Venkat Prabhu has revealed that they’re planning to release the film on August 15, 2011 for Independence Day.  It has been a long run for the team members of Mankatha as they’ve been relentlessly involved in shooting without taking any breaks.

Much prior to the commencement of this project, Venkat Prabhu was marked by excessive confidence on releasing the film for Ajith’s birthday. However, he later confessed his miscalculation saying that it wasn’t easy managing a bevy of big star-cast.

The post production works have already started while Yuvan Shankar Raja is working on final output of the remaining tracks.

Mankatha to be remade in Hindi

Director Venkat Prabhu has said that Mankatha will be remade in Hindi soon. Though he did not disclose any further details, the director has said that it will soon be taken to Bollywood as some filmmakers have shown keen interest. To yet another question on if the film will be dubbed in Telugu, Venkat Prabhu has said that it is up to the producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri to decide.
Mankatha is a high budget film that stars Ajith, Arjun and Trisha. Incidentally it happens to be Ajith’s 50th film. Mankatha shooting is complete and the audio launch date is due to be announced soon.

Yuvan on Mankatha song recording

Yuvan Shankar Raja has said that the songs in Mankatha will be recorded from today, June 16th, 2011. The music director has said that he had met director Venkat Prabhu and decided to begin work on this front.
A single track from Mankatha, “Vilayadu Mankatha” was released a few days ago and it is already a huge hit among the masses. With news that the other songs in the album are to be recorded, there is anticipation that the audio release may be announced soon.
Mankatha’s shooting has been wrapped up recently and the post production work is going on in full swing.

Mankatha is not a remake

Director Venkat Prabhu tells Coimbatore Times that his Ajith-starrer Mankatha is not a remake

Denying rumours that Mankatha is a remake, Venkat Prabhu, director of Ajith’s Mankatha says, “This movie is an original; it is not a remake of Jannat. I haven’t even seen Jannat till date.”
Since Ajith’s character has negative shades, the director has given the actor a salt-and-pepper look. Will fans accept it? Says Venkat, “We debated a lot about Ajith’s look before we decided on this look, using George Clooney as reference. Ajith’s the only star who can pull it off. Even Trisha thought it was awesome the first time she saw him. Being gray is cool and today most people in their 30s are greying. I’m 35 and I’m greying!”
While the director is confident that fans will love the look, he says, “We have to wait and watch. In Goa, I thought the gay portion of the film would work. But people didn’t accept it.”
Venkat clearly says it’s a guy film but that all the female characters have scenes where they will definitely make a mark. “Andrea is paired with Arjun and she has a guest role in the film,” he adds.
With the movie slated for an August release, there’s likely to be competition from Vijay’s Velayudham and Suriya’s 7aum Arivu. Says the filmmaker, “I’m not too worried; this is all part of the game. I think it’s a treat for the audience if all the films release around the same time.”
K-town is also buzzing with rumours that the title song of Mankatha is lifted from a popular masala jingle. Venkat Prabu says, “The genre of the song is hip-hop and a lot of hip-hop songs have a similar template. Our title song is pure gangster-rap style. When Yuvan and I heard the jingle, we realized it did sound similar. We both laughed about it.” He adds that since the jingle is popular, the song will be a hit with the audience.
When CT asked music composer Yuvan about the song being similar to the jingle, he messaged, “There’s nothing to react to this.”

Mankatha Shooting Pics



Ajith wraps up Mankatha Shooting

Here we have more news for all Ajith fans out there from the sets of 'Mankatha!' today(june 7) 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), Hyderabad, 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.

Last Schedule Payment Not Made to Mankatha Team

Ajith rides a Honda 1000 CC Motorbike on a highway at a speed of 180-220 KMPH for Mankatha. He puts his signature on 5000 posters instead of signing only once to have it copied to the others. Venkat Prabhu keeps sharing photos and news on his social networking pages.

All these may be happening but the crew of Mankatha isn’t the happiest in regard to their scheduled payments. Mankatha is produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri for Cloud Nine Movies. The production house had already told the cast, crew and technicians that payment for the last schedule would be made after the elections results.

The elections results were out last week which did not go well at all for the DMK. The Party won only 23 seats out of 234, which has changed the fortunes of the Mankatha team. The payment for the last schedule is not made yet and the first to not cooperate in the making is Yuvan Shankar Raja.

According to sources, Yuvan has declared that he would not work until the payment was made which results in the delay of the audio launch. Cloud Nine Movies may be expected to make the payment before others stop working on the project as a mark of protest!
