From the Archives, comes 'Thaalatta Varuvaala' 

Nightmare time for Ajith     02/11/03
For along time, Ajith himself would have forgotten a film called 'Thalatta Varuvala'. It is now back to haunt him.

After the success of 'Kadhal Kottai' Tamil cinema became obsessed with love stories. Before 'Amarkalam', even Ajith was concentrating on such films only. 'Thalatta Varuvala' began in that season.

Due to financial crisis, the film was canned. But, each year, with sincere dedication, ads popped up everywhere announcing that the film will be released that year. Nothing happened.

 This time, it is believed that nobody's joking. They are making frantic attempts to release the film this year to cash in on Ajith's popularity.

It is usual for filmmakers to dig up some old films or another language film done by a popular star, to cash in on his popularity. They normally release these films as if they were brand new films. Ajith is now the victim.

It has been more than 4 years now since the film was made. The Ajith in this film and the Afjith that we see these days are poles apart. Ajith is worried that this film will unleash innumerable witticisms about him appearance.

His heroine in this film, Reshma, is someone who barely made an impact on the Tamil cine industry. Everybody's already sure that the film is a flop.

Short is Sweet     02/10/03

'Dhil', 'Run', 'Dhool'…ever since these films became massive hits, Tamil cine industry is now witnessing the latest sentiment- Short Names.

Actors like Vikram, Vijay, Ajith, Prashanth and Silambarasan have movies with names like 'Saami', 'Geethai', 'Mahaa', 'Janaa', 'Jai' and 'Dhum'. Ajith's two latest films ('Mahaa' and 'Janaa') fall under this category. Meera Jasmine's case is more worth observing. Both her films ('Run' and 'Bala') have short names!
