It is understood that the leading actors Vijay and Surya films are getting delayed due to Kajal Agarwal dates. Kajal Agarwal is now struggling to become number one actress in Tamil film industry.
In Tamil, she is pairing with Vijay in Thuppakki and with Surya in Maatran. She is also acting in one Hindi film and two Telugu films which have popular actors in the lead role. She is shuttling between Tamil Nadu, Hyderabad and Mumbai.
Two more songs featuring Vijay and Kajal Agarwal are to be shot for the film Thuppakki. Similarly one more song in Maatran featuring Surya and Kajal Agarwal are remaining to be shot. Kajal Agarwal had given dates earlier but the directors have not used it properly.
Now they have requested fresh dates from her. Kajal has already allocated the dates requested by the directors for other films and because of this, the shooting of Thuppakki and Maatran are stalled.
The release of these films could also be delayed. Director Murugadoss has announced that Thuppakki will hit the screens on Deepavali day but Maatran release dates can be announced only after getting Kajal’s dates. Only the parrot astrologer can predict when Kajal parrot will come to Tamil Nadu.

A small chat with Arya
Arya is currently acting in various Tamil films including Erandam Ulagam and Settai.
In a small chat with him:
Selvaraghavan making is of a different genre. Will it suit you?
Why not? How long will I continue to be like this? That is why I have chosen this. I have never paved my path. All this happened because of my first film director Jeeva. After completing my computer education, I was supposed to go to America but director Jeeva caught hold of me and asked me to act in Ullam Ketkumae. He said, "Do this film well and you will like cinema." I never knew anything. I did what he said. After this I got very much interested in cinema as mentioned by him. Instead of going to America, I became a full time actor. I feel that I should act in good films. Erandam Ulagam will be definitely such a one. I am confident that I will be going to next level after this film. I like the way Selvaraghavan makes this film. I have gained lots of experience. I am fully satisfied with him and his film. This film will be new to Tamil cinema.
At the same time you are acting in Settai. This will give you a different colour. Isn’t it?
Sure. That is a different colour. Our only aim is to make the audience laugh. We cannot bring the exact Hindi Delhi Belly to our place. We have reduced the pungency in it. At the same it is a bold story. The combination of director Kannan, Santhanam and Premgi is a new team. This is also a good experience for me.
You are sharing the screen with Ajith. Why this new trend?
I like Ajith very much. He will speak a lot when I meet him. He will speak also about my films. There will be genuineness in him. Every word he speaks will show the interest he has on us. Ajith is a role model for our kind of actors. There are days when I use to think, that if I go cinema I should be like Ajith. I was very much surprised on seeing Ajith sharing with small actors in the film Mankatha. I saw the film Mankatha with great eagerness. One day while director Vishnuvardhan was speaking with me, he said, "Arya, we will all rock together." Now this has happened. I am waiting for Ajith now.

Shruthi Haasan said that she will not dance for item number called Kuthu songs.
She while speaking said, "Many are asking me about the flop Hindi film Luck in which I debuted as a heroine.
I know that the film did not do well at the box office but when the film was released in the theatres, no one walked half way through the film.
This film did not do well at the box office because of my fate but I was not upset because of this. The cinema doors were always opened to me because I happen to be the daughter of a big star.
I got that rare opportunity. Though I am getting lots of offers, I am selecting the good ones and acting in it. I will ask my father only his opinion. I will not force him to get offers for me at any point of time.
He has also not forced me to act in any films. Many are asking me that whether I will dance for a Kuthu song. I like dancing but I will not dance for a single song and especially for a Kuthu song."

Deepika Padukone says that Rajnikanth is like a child
Deepika Padukone has mentioned that super star Rajnikanth is like a child. Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone is pairing with Rajni in Kochadaiyaan.
Recently when she spoke about her acting with Rajni, she said, "Before the shooting could commence I would be tensed. Once the camera starts to roll I will transform myself as the character.
That is my habit. I was awestruck seeing Rajni’s interest and enthusiasm. I felt like that he was a child. Once the shot is over and when the director says Okay, you can never see the happiness and passion in any other actor’s face than Rajni. He will never forget to appreciate the actors who have acted well. The director of this film is his daughter Soundarya but he will behave with her like how he behaves with other directors.
Once the shot is Okayed he will ask if it has come out well with interest. You can see in the eyes of the stalwarts Amitabh Bachchan and Rajnikanth, their acting and over enthusiasm. Performance technology is the latest. This has been used in Kochadaiyaan. The actors do not need to participate in the shooting fully. Facial expressions and other expressions are captured separately. The digital takes care of the rest. It is almost like an amalgamation of reality and animation. This is a new experience for me."

Richa explains that why she has not acted in Tamil films after acting in Dhanush and Simbhu film
Richa gives an explanation that why she has not acted in Tamil films after acting in Dhanush and Simbhu films.
She said, "While I was acting in Mayakkam Enna and Osthi, I got the offer to act in Mankatha directed by Venkat Prabhu. I was in a situation that I could not accept it. Venkat Prabhu who understood this said that we can join hands in another film.
In between I was busy acting in other language films and because of this I was not able to accept Tamil films. Venkat Prabhu recently approached me to act in his film Biryani. I did not want to lose this opportunity. I immediately gave my nod.
Normally there will be importance for heroes in Venkat Prabhu’s films but in this film there is importance for the heroine. The shooting of this film will be commencing by end of this month. Young actors are very talented these days. In that way Karthi is in the first place. I am very happy that I am pairing with him in Biryani. Similarly I am also interested to act with Surya. I have reduced my weight to act in this film."

What is the story of Samar?
Samar is a film which has Vishal, Trisha, Sunaina, Manoj Bajpai and J D Chakravarthy in the cast. This film is directed by Thiru. The director while speaking about this film said, " Some believe that what happens in our life are determined by God.
Some are of the impression that we are the one who determines. Above there is some matter. We have narrated in this film what is that matter and how it guides us. How the hero approaches and overcomes the problems because of this is the story of Samar.
This is an action oriented psycho thriller film. Vishal dons the role of a druggist while Trisha is domiciled in Thailand. Sunaina is from Ooty. I have earlier directed Vishal in the film Theeratha Vilayattu Pillai. There is no connection between this film and Samar because this has a different kind of action. Vishal and Trisha chemistry has worked out well in this film. "

K V Anand speaks about Maatran
K V Anand while speaking about Maatran said, "Surya is donning the role of conjoined twins in this film. Both of them have opposite characteristics. This is a technically challenging story. Graphics should be perfect.
Many are asking me that how I got this idea. Shankar and I were going abroad for shooting of the song sequence ‘Oru Koodai Sunlight’ for Rajni starrer Sivaji. I happened to read the National Geographic Magazine.
There was a story about the birth of conjoined twins in Thailand in that magazine. There was a flash in my mind. When I came back to India, I started searching for such kind of twins. I got surprising information about these twins. With this I wove the story of Maatran. One of them has positive thoughts while the other one has crooked thoughts.
In real life also, there are twins like these. There are two minds in a body. Surya has done a fantastic job in this film. He has put all his efforts in this film which he has supposed to do in three films. I told him the story during the Ayan days itself. He listened to the story. Once I completed Ko, he asked me whether we can take the twins story in the hands.
We immediately started after doing a lot of homework. The names of the twins Surya are Akilan and Vimalan. Vimalan is a good boy. He will write poems. He helps others and eats vadais. He will not tell lies. Akilan is direct opposite to him. He will speak English, Pizza party and dating youngster. If Vimalan is a good boy, Akilan is a play boy. Surya has wonderful performance can be seen in this film. There is no separate comedian in this film. Surya is responsible for this."

Director Vijay tells that whether he has purchased a house for Amala Paul
Director Vijay is back after completing the shooting of Thandavam which has Vikram and Anushka in the lead role. When asked him about the rumours being spread about him, he said, "I am also irritated.
I am fed up answering these questions. Like moving with others I was friendly with Amala Paul. Is it wrong that if a director smiles at her heroine. They made it serious. They are going on spreading rumours as they wish.
I made up mind not to speak about these things but they are not allowing me. The reason for all of these things is that I am a bachelor. The media people are trying to get me forcibly married. I will soon get married to a good girl so give me some time.
There was news that I have bought a house in Kadhar Nawaz Road and purchased a BMW car for the use of Amala Paul. It is true that I have purchased a house and a car but those were not for Amala Paul. My parents are only living in that house. Why should I give my hard earned money to Amala Paul? It is better to avoid this subject."

Will Samantha pair with Surya at least?
Samantha who had quit big directors film Kadal and I has now got another opportunity. After Maatran, Surya will be donning the lead role in Singam 2. After completing this, he will be joining hands with Lingusamy.
The heroine selection has already begun. Lingusamy is very firm that Samantha should pair with Surya. In the recent times, Samantha has been avoiding offers because of her skin problems. Samantha who had earlier quit I and Kadal has now got the third opportunity. In case Samantha refuses this film, the offer might go to Parineeti Chopra who is the sister of the Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra.
