Looks like it’s final. Shreya will be Rajini’s paethi…sorry…sorry pair for the next flick Sivaji. Seems like even this time, Aishwarya couldn’t make it. I’m happy, for Rajini.
Is Shankar searching for a good actress or a cutie ??

From Roja to Ah Aha and Beyond…
[Click Image for a bigger version. Via Radha]This superbly constructed montage has ARR’s face super imposed on the CD covers of all his movies. This montage was presented to AR Rahman during the Bangalore show by his fans. The image says it’s been created by ARR dB but the site seems to be under cosntruction.
Trivias about the collage –
– They presented a 3′ X 2.5′ poster of this montage
– It has all of ARR’s 94 – Originals/Remade/Reused albums
– It was designed by vinit
– ARR liked this gift from his fans, has agreed to keep this in his studio & tell people about it.
– The fans had taken 40 prints of this montage- postcard sized , he signed in all 40 of them.BTW, try to spot Kizhakku Cheemayiley out there. Can you ?

Kaadhal goes to London
Kaadhal was one of the few movies that I enjoyed last year. Except for the quick not-so-realistic ending, the movie had wonderful sequences and a worthy cast. Now Balaji Shakthivel’s Love (Kaadhal) goes to Times-London Film Festival in the World Cinema category. This is a non-competitive category and they don’t give Oscars here, which is a relief. It’s only for such film festivals we should be sending our ‘good’ films. Even if we were to send atleast one film a year, like this, its an achievement.
Rediff India writes on Kaadhal –
The latest achievement for this little film is its selection to the non-competitive, ‘World Cinema’ section of the prestigious Times-London Film Festival which starts on October 19. The London film festival’s official book says, ‘Director Balaji Shaktivel has deftly adapted the formulae of Tamil commercial cinema to combine with graphic realism, unadulterated joy and seismic action sequences, spun together with some wildcard editing and sparkling photography.’

@Vantage Bloggers !!
When I read Gaurav‘s note on the law suit, few days back, I was thinking, thats just an email and what could it ever do to him. I wasn’t sure that this would be more worse than Mediaah !! closure on acount of lawsuit from the famous news corporation(!!).
With the Indian Blogosphere heading to a war with the false claimants, I feel sorry for Gaurav who resigned from his job. At the same time, how much ever Nilu’s note makes sense to me, it’s a brave decision by Gaurav to stand by his post and not take them down. Many of us, put in that situation would have not reacted in the same way. And that’s a hard truth.
With the bloggers figting back to justify their stands, one would expect that THEY GIVE UP !!
– Following the Dilip D’Souza way, No links or even a mention of THEM(!) . I am not giving away free advertisements on my account. They already have enough.
– Nilu has been writing hilarious posts on this issue. I am ROTFL since morning.
– Instead of releasing your anger gas here, please leave comments on Desi Pundit post which serves as a repository for this issue. I am closing comments, on this post, for this specific purpose.

Mirrors on the ceiling, The
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said “We are all just prisoners here of our own device”
And in the masters chambers They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can’t kill the beastLast thing I remember I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
“Relax,” said the night man, “We are programmed to receive
You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave”
