Ajith's Citizen: A Movie To Talk About
Ajith has this Kamalhassan fixation that he decides to be on equal terms or one up with his role model. He has got his benami producer Chakravarthy to produce yet another dream film for him and in Citizen he is planning to out do Sivaji's Navarathri and Kamalhassan's Indian by doning all possible getups.According to inside sources the film is a remake of Day of the Jackal and in the film he dons various getups to fool the people on his trail. He has cast Vasundhara Das as heroine instead of Sameera Reddy who was not willing to give bulk dates and be at the disposal of Ajith. Ajith's newly released photos of him as a old man and also a man with drooping mustache has got him the attention that he needed and ironically his next film Deena is round the corner for release but the hero has nothing much to say about it and instead chose Citizen as the film to talk about. The film has music by Deva, cinematography by Ravi K Chandran , the cast includes Meena and Naghma.
