Ajit and Nayan in a Romantic number

For all you Ajit and Nayanthara fans out there, there are some nice romantic scenes in Aegan which they missed in Billa.

Currently the lovely pair is shooting a romantic number at AVM studio choreographed by director Raju Sundaram.

A total of 10 sets were erected at the studio and it is a sort of a college cultural which will break out into a dream song with Ajit and Nayanthara.

The film which is inspired from Main Hoon Na, is set in a college where Nayan plays a college lecturer for whom Ajit falls hook-line-sinker.

A major portion of this film produced by Ayngaran International was shot in Yercaud at a Public school when it was closed down for summer vacation. The cast also has Suhasini, Suman, Navdeep and a new Mumbai model Piya in important roles and music is by Yuvan Shankar Raja.

The shoot of Aegan is almost 75 percent complete. The unit is now planning to shoot a song abroad in the first week of July. The entire shoot will be over by July end, though release dates are yet to be confirmed

'Ajith is my godfather' - Jai

Jai, son of music composer Deva's elder brother Sampath, is fast climbing the ladder of success. Though he acted in the Vijay starrer ‘Bhagawathy’ as the younger brother, Jai is a huge fan of Ajith. Jai made an impact with ‘Chennai 600028’.

'I thank Ajith sir for the all his advice and guidance that has helped me make a career out of acting. He was very friendly and advised me on various things with regard to the industry', Jai says.

The young and aspiring actor is eagerly awaiting the release of his next film ‘Subramaniapuram’, directed by debutant and former associate of director Ameer, Sasi Kumar.

Awaiting the release of ‘Subramaniapuram’, Jai says, “ ‘Chennai 600028’ was a fun-filled film shot entirely in Chennai, whereas ‘Subramaniapuram’ was made in rural areas of Madurai. It is a serious film. I play an ordinary youth Azhagar, who falls in love with a college student.”

My forthcoming films include ‘Rakozhi’, ‘Aval Peyar Thamizharasi’, ‘Rettai Suzhi’ and another movie to be directed by Venkat Prabhu.

Says Jai, ' I wanted to become a music director and started playing key-board initially. However director Venkatesh took me to acting. After four years of my entry, I am placed comfortably in the industry'.

Superstar @ No.1 and Ultimate Star @ No.2

Rs.3 crores, Rs.5 crores, Rs.10 crores. There is no end to the meteoric rise in star prices today. In the past, even the biggest stars in the Tamil film industry made sure they were available to film producers at reasonable prices. But things have changed today with the entry of corporates on the film scene.

They are not only signing up stars for astronomical amounts, they are signing multiple film deals as well. This leaves the individual producers in the dark, and very soon both will begin competing on a large scale to get hold of stars.

Says M. Saravanan of AVM, “Because of the entry of corporates into the industry, stars have started demanding a lot of money. For my current project with Suriya, we have paid him what he has asked for, but I cannot mention the amount. We felt it is viable and so went ahead with the payment…”

The highest paid actor is Rajinikanth, and his figure touches Rs. 17 crores for a venture. This seems reasonable because his films have a very big market today, as his business has reached Rs.100 crores.

Right behind him is Ajith, whose remuneration is Rs.10 crores after the stupendous success of ‘Billa.’ The actor has signed up for ‘Billa 2’ under the banner of Warner Bros. India for the mentioned amount.

‘Aascar’ Ravichandran is all too willing to discuss figures with the media. He claims, “I have paid Rs.7 crores to Kamal for ‘Dasavathaaram,’ and I have no regrets about it. My film has been sold to distributors and I have recovered the production cost.”

Says Krishnakanth of Indian Theatre Productions, “I have worked with big stars such as Vikram, Dhanush and Simbu. I do not mind paying them a lot if the story demands it. Till now no one has demanded any sort of payment from me, and I will be working with these three actors again.

Ajit to play a cop in Gautam's movie

Sivaji Productions, one of the prestigious banners in the south, is back three years after the stupendous success of Chandramukhi. Ram Kumar and his actor brother Prabhu have signed up 'ultimate' star Ajit to do a film with Gautham Menon. It will be Ajit's next film after he completes Raju Sundaram's film for Ayngaran International. The news of Gautham coming together with Ajit has raised hopes in fans who expect the movie to be a smash hit. It will be a stylish, actionpacked entertainer which is likely to have music by Harris Jayaraj and camera by a top cinematographer. The heroine is likely to be Sameera Reddy and other details are being worked out. Gautham is hoping to complete the post production work on his ambitious Vaaranam Aayiram, wrap up the shoot of Chennayil Oru Mazhaikalam and start work on this film by December. The buzz is that Ajit and Gautham plan to make it another cop story.Sivaji Productions, one of the prestigious banners in the south, is back three years after the stupendous success of Chandramukhi.

Billa rocked at China!!!

Only very few tamil films are released in China. Recently Pyramid Saimira has relesed Billa in china with chinese sub titles. The opening of the film was marvellous and it has been done well in all the theatres. The main success of the Billa in china was Ajit's style and car chasing scene. Because of Billa Ajit is now having a lot of fans in China. Will they open a fan club for Ajit? We need to wait and watch.

A.R.Rehman for Ajit???

There is a speculation around the Kollywood that A.R.Rehman is scoring a music for his next film that directing by Gautam. We want to confirm you that Harris Jeyaraj is only going to score a music for this film. When we tried to contact a Gautam, one of his associate is confirmed that Harris Jeyaraj is the one who is going to score a music for this film. When we contacted Harris, he too confirmed it. Gautam is informed that we are all going to see a different Ajit on this film. Whatever we have a reason to celebrate as Ajit is doing the Billa sequel after this Gautam menon's film.
