Maatraan releasing in June?

SURIYA Doing Twins Role in 'Maatraan'

Earlier there were reports that Suriya's Maatraan is likely to grace theatres for Tamil New Year but the latest buzz is that the film's release has been postponed to June. For the first time, Kajal Aggarwal will team up with Suriya while Sachin Khedekar, who was last seen in Deiva Thiirumagal, will play the main villain in Maatraan.

Ace comedian Vivek will also play a prominent role in this film produced by Kalpathi S. Aghoram under AGS Entertainment banner. The technical team comprises Harris Jayaraj (music), S. Sounder Rajan (camera) and Anthony (editing).

The ‘Ayan’ duo is at it again. Suriya has started his next project with K V Anand, titled ‘Maatraan’. Produced by Kalpathi S Aghoram’s AGS Entertainment, the film is expected to be an action entertainer.

‘Sometimes the end is just the beginning’ is the tagline of the film, which will have music by Harris Jayaraj and script by Subha, the two quintessential names in all films directed by Anand.

While Anand is currently busy with the release of ‘Ko’, a Udhayanidhi Stalin venture which has Jiiva in the lead, Suriya is shooting for ‘7am Arivu’, again a Red Giant production, directed by A R Murugadoss.

“The shoot of Maatran will start soon. Both Suriya and Anand are happy to work together again for they shared a great rapport in Ayan, one of the biggest blockbusters of 2009,” sources in the know say.

If reports are to be believed, Suriya will play a dual role in Maatran. The film is to be directed by KV Anand and an official announcement regarding this project was made a couple of weeks ago. So, what is new about a dual role, one might ask. Being an actor who has tried out different things in his career and a brilliant director like KV Anand, who also has immense knowledge in cinematography, handling the megaphone, there is bound to some be fresh ideas that will have the movie buffs in awe.

Enquiries in Kollywood reveal that Suriya’s dual role is that of a Siamese Twins, which means a pair of identical twins born with conjoined body parts. Now, that is going to be a whole new experience for Suriya’s fans and challenging one for Suriya and KV Anand.

Vijay gives away relief materials ‘Thane’ Victims

Last week, actor Vijay visited the localities and people badly affected by the recent ‘Thane’ storm which hit the coastal belt of Tamil Nadu damaging properties worth crores of rupees in the U.T. of Puducherry. Storms are a rare phenomenon in Tamil Nadu but the change appears to be changing of late.

The State Government’s relief and rehabilitation and disaster management departments are working overtime to ensure that the relief material including food, clothing and shelter provided by the Government are reached to the affected people in Cuddalore. However, there are some who criticize the government for not doing ‘enough’ relief work to mitigate the sufferings of the poor. 

Vijay visited Cuddalore recently with the office-bearers of his fans’ club in the U.T. He distributed rice, utensils for domestic use and cement sheets to serve as roof for the houses to be made to thousands of people who were greatly touched by the actor’s gesture. He also announced that he was ready to distribute more relief material when the need arose.

He also undertook a tour of the affected localities and spoke to the people there. All those who received the relief material thanked Vijay and dispersed.
