Sujatha is on the hot seat. With AVM announcing Rajini’s next flick Sivaji, the media is already going ga-ga over even a trivia about the movie. Shankar has found an ideal script/dialogue writer with Sujatha to suit his endeavors. It’s truly a favor for Shankar than for Sujatha.
This is Sujatha’s 25th year in writing for cinema. Sujatha was shying away from the invitation to write for cinema until Kamal Hassan and K Balachander forced him in Ninaithaale Inikkum. In his interview to Kunguman on on the account of the silver jubliee year at cinema, Sujatha details on the scripting of Sivaji and concludes that the premise is new, both for Rajini and Shankar. Not just that but he also discloses how scripting is usually done by the kollywood biggies like Mani Ratnam and Kamalhassan. Pretty interesting interview and Sujatha is just too good in adding hype to the already hyped Sivaji.
If you didn’t get to read the offline interview, I’ve uploaded it here, Page 1 & Page 2. Thanks Karthi for passing it across.
It’s becoming colder in Seattle. Its raining, windy and pleasantly cold. The kind of iira nilam that one would love to live. They have been telling me that as winter coses it, you would be terrible out of mood, blame it on the absence of sun. But for me it’s becoming the other way. I do enjoy the sun but the cold weather combined with semi-frequent coming of the rains. This evening it was so windy with rain drizzles that I had my spirits uplifted. A different kind of feeling, that for a moment, makes you forget projects, go-lives, status reports, MOMs and what not.
