After the lukewarm response of Kaalai, Silambarasan has started working in his next project Silambattam with Sneha. After this he will be seen in a film to be produced by Gemini Film Circuit titled Poda Podee which will be directed by his friend Vikki who apprenticed with Prabhu Solomon. Heroine for this film has not been finalized and the unit is scouting for the same. While inside sources aver that the title may attract some kind of negative publicity some others feel that it may be lapped by youth.

Meanwhile Silambarasan’s another project Kettavan appears to have been put in back burner for now. Its status will be known soon.

Rajini offers explanations

Script of Kuselan, the Tamil remake of Malayalam Katha Parayumbol is being revised to suit Tamil audience. Srinivasan, the renowned Malayalam actor who had written the story for Katha Parayumbol and essayed Pasupathy’s role in the film happens to be a good friend of super star from his film institute days. While talking about the changes in Kuselan, he says, “In Malayalam, role of Mammooty was very minimal while the film’s focus is on my character. However few scenes are added in Tamil to highlight Rajini’s character”. While heaping praise on super star, Srinivasan states that for every change that is being made in Kuselan, Rajini personally calls him and seeks his opinion and approval on the same. He is also quick to point out that he had written the script of Katha Parayumbol keeping in mind the Malayalam audience and feels that appropriate changes are needed while targeting Tamil audience.
