Ajith's Veeram Shoot Completed

Ajith Kumar's forthcoming movie Veeram shooting has come to an end. With this development, the movie has moved a step further towards its release for Pongal.

 Veeram shooting has been completed at a rapid pace. The makers of the movie shot the flick as per their plans and this helped the film to wrap up on time. It was also said that the team did not mess up with dates due to Ajith Kumar's impending leg surgery.

The film is an action thriller directed by Siva, who had earlier made Siruthai with Karthi. It is said to be a masala entertainer with all the ingredients of success - love, romance, action and comedy. The forthcoming movie is produced by Bharathi Reddy under the banner Vijaya Productions.

Meanwhile, the movie bosses are planning about the audio release of Veeram. Sources say that the music would hit the stores on December 18. Devi Sri Prasad has composed the music for the flick.

Veeram, which features Tamanna Bhatia in the female lead role, will hit the screens for Pongal. According to reports, the movie bosses have decided to release the film on January 10. It will be clashing with Vijay's Jilla.

Ajith defies death!

Ajith is someone who doesn't mind taking risks for his films. Be it performing daring stunts on moving vehicles, trying out the salt-and-pepper look, or playing the hero with a baddie image, he has always been sporting. And many are aware of the injuries he has sustained and the surgeries he has undergone while shooting for stunt scenes in his films. But looks like this hasn't stopped the actor from performing intense action sequences for his film; especially the ones that involve him hanging!

Even in his latest Veeram, we hear Ajith fought the baddies atop a moving train. A source reveals, "This sequence was shot in Orissa, and has Ajith fighting inside a train, and on top of it! There's a particular sequence in which he is pushed out of a moving train; he hangs from a bar as the train crosses a bridge. This is one of the several scenes that have been shot using helicams."

Mankatha

This sequence in which Ajith does a wheelie with Mahath in the pillion, leaps on to a moving van from his superbike and hangs from under the van, received the loudest claps in the theatres. The fact that the actor is a biker in real life seems to have helped him perfect this scene.

Billa II

Move over bikes and vans, the makers have chosen a chopper for Ajith this time. With two drool-worthy actors, Ajith and Vidyut, fighting it out in a flying helicopter and namma Thala hanging for his dear life, quite literally, had us on the edge of our seats.

Arrambam

There's a lot of action in Ajith's latest film. But we dig this scene in which the actor forces the door of the police van open and jumps out in full speed, stunning every cop, the crew, and us.

Ajith makes the first move

While Ajith's Veeram has been confirmed for a Pongal release on January 10., the film has already started to make business with Rama Narayanan's 'Thenandal Films' acquiring NSC and Chennai area distribution rights of 'Veeram' for a whopping amount. The shoot of the film is almost over and post-production work has started in full swing.

Veeram starring Ajith and Tamanna in the lead roles is directed by Siruthai Siva. The shooting of the film is progressing at a brisk pace and is expected to be wrapped soon. The producers want the first copy ready by December end, so that censor can take place in the first week of the New Year.

Produced by Vijaya Productions, Veeram also includes Santhanam, Ramesh Khanna, Vidharth, Bala, Munish, Devadarshini, Vidyullekha Raman, Suhail Chandhok and Pradeep Rawat in key roles. With Vijay's Jilla also touted to hit the screens for Pongal, it is more or less confirmed that it will be a Vijay (Jilla) versus Ajith (Veeram) clash for Pongal of 2014.

Ajith Raises The Bar Again

It was an helicopter scene in Billa and a car chasing scene in Arrambam that showed Ajith Kumar's desire to perform action sequences on his own without using body double. Now, he seems to have raised the bar as in his latest movie Veeram, he has done a stunt sequence on a train.

Director Siruthai Siva has spilled the beans over the action sequence in forthcoming Arrambam. The filmmaker himself was tensed when Ajith Kumar performed the stunt sequence. Even though he knew that Thala was pushing his limits, the director couldn't stop because the actor was eager on doing the action scene on his own.

It was a two-minute scene where Ajith Kumar was flirting with danger. Ajith Kumar also told Siva not to change his concept of filming the scene just because he was performing. Siruthai Siva says that such scenes would give shivers to action directors too, but the Mankatha actor confidently performed it.

On the other end, Ajith Kumar, who injured his right leg during the shooting of his last release Arrambam, will be undergoing a surgery soon.

Veeram also features Tamanna Bhatia, Santhanam and others in the cast. It will hit the screens in January and the audio of the flick will hit the stores in December.

Kochadaiiyaan Out Of Pongal Race, Veeram-Jilla To Clash?

Kochadaiiyaan's release news left the traders unsettled last week. It made the traders to imagine the chaotic situation in Kollywood for Pongal with the Rajinikanth's movie competing with other biggies like Ajith Kumar's Veeram and Vijay's Jilla.

The producers of Veeram and Jilla, which had been billed as the Pongal treat a long ago, were unhappy with the latest development as they wanted good number of screens for their movies. The sudden entry of Rajini's movie was not welcomed by them.

But without showing any sign of fear over Kochadaiiyaan release, they decided to reconfirm their releases for Pongal by giving ads on papers. As traders and audience started anticipating the clash, here comes a surprising news again.

The buzz says that Kochadaiiyaan has backed out of the Pongal race. Reading the situation, the makers of the Rajinikanth film have now decided to postpone the release of the forthcoming mega-budget movie. Indeed, it has now cleared the way for the clash of  Veeram and Jilla at Tamil Box Office for pongal.

Sources say that the makers of Kochadaiiyaan wanted to avoid the clash of three big movies. They know that it will not help any movie even though the Rajinikanth's movie would get maximum screens for its release. Hence, the release date of the Tamil flick has been pushed.

Director's Fear, Ajith's Dare

Most often, directors conceive a concept which they convince the actor to take up and perform. But it is very rare to find an actor who is understanding of the director's requirements and volunteers to perform; and that too, when the director himself is wary of. We are talking about director Siva's Ajith starrer upcoming 'Veeram'. As reported earlier, the train fight sequence is a head turner in the movie, and is highly risky. Shot in Andhra Pradesh-Odisha border, the film involved very high levels of risk and the Siva claims that this was the only scene in his entire career, which he hesitated to shoot, owing to the lack of precautions, given the location of shoot.

Speaking on the episode, Siva says "It is one of the most daring stunts I have ever shot. It was so risky that I was not prepared to go for the shoot. But Ajith insisted that he will take the scene forward perform the stunt. He is certainly one of the most daring and dedicated actors. But he seldom believes in heroism and follows the script and goes to any extent that it demands."

Ajith in a romantic mood

The last two releases of Ajith may not have had much of romance it, courtesy the star's bad boy role, but it looks like Veeram will come as a whiff of fresh air for his fans. The last time the actor actually shook a leg was for Mankatha in which he had a few duet numbers with Trisha.

In Veeram, the actor has a duet with Tamannaah and if a recent poster is to go by, the song was shot in Switzerland. So, it looks like Ajith's fans might have a reason to look forward to this Pongal, to see their Thala in a romantic mood.

Aamir Khan Should Pave Way For Ajith Kumar In Dhoom 4

Bollywood star Aamir Khan's stylish movie Dhoom 3 is heading towards a massive release worldwide in December. With the third instalment from the Dhoom franchise getting ready to hit the screens, speculations and talks have already begun on its next movie in the series. Well, the buzz in the Tollywood has put Ajith Kumar to step into the shoes of Aamir Khan in Dhoom 4.

Kollywood, like every other industry, is awaiting the release of Dhoom 3, has started a debate on Dhoom 4. Many in the industry have started discussing about the next instalment even before the Aamir Khan's latest film hit the screens. The industry believes that Tamil star Ajith Kumar could be the ideal candidate to carry forward the Dhoom franchise.

There are many reasons for them to suggest Ajith Kumar's name. The actor is a passionate biker and avid car racer. Thala has participated in Formula One and also he has a pilot license. All these factors make him a favourite name for the Dhoom 4, which is about style, race and action.

Not to forget, the lead star will be projected in grey shades in Dhoom franchise and Ajith Kumar has delivered a couple of hits in negative role.

Shahrukh Khan loves Ajith's Arrambam

Bollywood Baadshah Shahrukh Khan who is currently shooting for his upcoming flick 'Happy New Year' caught up with director Vishnuvardhan who was the associate of Santosh Sivan while Shahrukh was doing 'Ashoka' in 2001 which also had Ajith doing a small role in the film. The Bollywood star spent some time with the director remebering the 'Asoka' days and also mentioned that he had loved the trailer of Ajith starrer 'Arrambam' though he hasnt watched the film yet.

Director Vishnuvardhan tweeted after meeting the star "Met up with SRK, loved catching up and remembering 'Asoka' days. He loved the 'Arrambam' trailer. Cheers guys."

While a lot of ' Arrambam' was shot in Mumbai, the director was often seen in Mumbai. With the movie released and running successfully in the theatres, one wonders why Vishnuvardhan is still visiting Mumbai often. Is the director's next a bollywood flick with a top star?

Ajith-Gautham Menon's Film to Commence on 15 February

Director Gautham Vasudev Menon has confirmed that his new film with Ajith is all set to go on floors on 15 February. Gautham is currently working with Silambarasan (aka STR) for an untitled flick that is expected to get wrapped up in three months. He will commence his project with Ajith in February.

Confirming the news, Gautham tweeted, "Very happy to be back at shoot after almost a year of waiting. STR now (day and night) and looking forward to AJITH sir from february 15th."

Last month, it was confirmed that Ajith and Gautham will team up for a film in 2014. The director has now finally come out with a fixed date (15 November) to begin the film.

Ajith is currently busy with his upcoming film "Veeram", which is confirmed for a Pongal release. A small portion of the film is yet to be shot, but post-production work has already begun in full swing. The film will release in January, following which Ajith will commence shooting for the yet-to-be-titled flick with Gautham.

This is the first time that the actor-director duo is teaming up for a film. They had planned to work together a few years ago, but their plans did not materialise.Gautham was supposed to do a film with Suriya this year. The duo had announced the project, but it did not take off as Suriya opted out of the film saying he did not get the complete script of the subject despite waiting for over a year. The actor had signed up for two films - one with Lingusamy and the other with Gautham. Since he walked out of Gautham's film, he now has only Lingu's project in hand.

Ajith's 'Veeram' Officially Confirmed for Pongal Release, Set to Clash with 'Jilla' and 'Kochadaiiyaan'

The makers of Ajith's "Veeram" have confirmed that the film will hit screens during the Pongal festival. However, an exact release date has not yet been revealed. It is likely to release on 10th October, a few days ahead of the harvest festival.

Vijaya Productions, producers of the film, have assured that the Ajith starrer will be a real treat for fans. Ajith will don a rusty look in the film, which audiences haven't seen in the past few years. "Thala" (Ajith is fondly referred by this name) has been doing stylish roles since "Billa" released in 2007. His traditional attire combined with his trademark salt and pepper hair gives him the typical mass hero look in "Veeram".

Ajith is reportedly playing a lively character in "Veeram" that is sure to impress his fans. The film's shooting is expected to be completed in a few days. The makers have already begun the post-production work, in order to release the film on the scheduled date.

Directed by "Siruthai" Siva, "Veeram" has an ensemble star cast including Tamannah, Santhanam, Bala, Vidharth, Munish, Suhail, Ramesh Khanna, Appukutty, Nadodigal Abhinaya, Devadharshini, Vidhyulekha Raman and Pradeep Rawat among others. The film's technical crew includes Vetry (Cinematographer), Milan (Art director), Kasi Viswanathan (Editor), Selva (Stunt master), Dinesh (Choreographer) and Devi Sri Prasad (Music).

Expectations for "Veeram" are sky high thanks to Ajith's star power and the film's mass teaser . His recently-released film "Arrambam" has been doing fantastic business at the box office. The film gave Ajith his best ever opening. This has raised the expectations for "Veeram". It remains to be seen if the Siva directorial will turn to be another hit in Ajith's career.

The action entertainer will not have a solo release and is likely to face strong competition from other biggies. Vijay's "Jilla" is expected to release during the Pongal festival period. A few days ago, "Kochadaiiyaan" co-producer confirmed that the Rajinikanth starrer is gearing up for a 10 January release. With three big releases, there will be a huge battle for screens. But it will be a real treat for cinema lovers to see their favourite stars taking on each other at the box office.

Ajith Sports Rustic Look In Veeram

Happy days for Ajith Kumar fans seems to be continuing as his next movie will appear before them in a gap of just 50 days!

The production house press release claims that Ajith Kumar has played a very lively character, which would capture the imagination of his fans. The shooting of the movie will be concluded in the next few days.

Veeram is jointly produced by Venkatrama Reddy and Bharathi Reddy under the banner Vijaya Productions. Bhoopathi Raja has penned the story and Bharathan has written the dialogues for the Siva directorial flick.

Tamanna Bhatia has played the female lead role and Santhanam, Vidharth, Bala and others are in the cast. Vetri is the cinematographer, Milan is the art director, Kasi Vishwanathan is the editor, Selva is the stunt master and Dinesh has choreographed the songs.

While Thala Ajith's 'Veeram' and  Ilayathalapathy Vijay's 'Jilla'  have been confirmed to lock horns at the box office during Pongal 2014, looks like Kamal Haasan's magnum opus 'Vishwaroopam 2' and Rajinikanth long awaited 'Kochadaiiyaan' will clash with the junior stars.

Both Kamal and Rajinikanth's film were supposed to hit the screen in November and December this year respectively, but have now been pushed to 2014. Both the legendary actor would like to cache in on the festive season of Pongal and take on Ajith and Vijay, or perhaps opt to give them a breather and clash against each other with a Republic Day release.
