According to director Sashikumar, erstwhile Assistant Director to Bala and Ameer, Subramanyapuram is a period film – if you call can a movie set in the backdrop of 1980s, that is. The story is set in Madurai and we have managed our best to get the feel of the Eighties”, says Sashi. He also states that people who watched the previews were impressed at the details that went into the making of movie – especially the intricacies of each frame.
Subramaniyapuram spins around friendship and love, but then “no cinema is stranger than life in itself” declares Sashi as a matter of fact.

MGR Life Line


Date of Birth
17 January 1917, Kandy, Ceylonn
Date of Death
29 December 1987, Madras, Tamil Nadu, India
Birth Name
Marudur Gopalamenon Ramachandran
Nickname
MGR
Mini Biography
M.G. Ramachandran (1917-1987), popularly known as MGR, dominated like no other, the films and politics of India's Tamil Nadu state. A charismatic actor and philanthropist, he commanded the idolatrous adulation of millions of Tamilians and became Tamil Nadu's chief minister. His achievements in 3 fields, namely films, philanthropy and politics were remarkable considering his humble origins in Sri Lanka. Raised in poverty by a widowed single mother, he had nothing more than his good looks when he got his first break in "Sati Lilavati", a Tamil film of the late 1930s. In the 1940s and 50s, the Tamil film industry was being transformed by screenwriters like Annadurai, Karunanidhi and others belonging to the Dravidian movement. MGR starred in many of the movies they helped make. Annadurai became his mentor and MGR joined the DMK, Annadurai's new Dravidian party. His films made MGR a matinee idol among Tamilians. He also started monetarily helping people in need, sowing the seeds for his reputation as a philanthropist. When Annadurai died as Tamil Nadu's chief minister, MGR's rival Karunanidhi assumed office. MGR accused him of defalcation and was kicked out of the DMK. In 1977, MGR's ADMK (later renamed AIADMK) party was swept into power. In his first term, MGR cleaned up corruption and carried out reforms like having an income limit for backward class people to be eligible for the reserved seats in government colleges and jobs. His reforms proved unpopular, so MGR became another corrupt Indian politician having learned not to rock the boat. Tamil Nadu stagnated during the rest of his reign. Yet his mesmerized legions of fans continued to vote him into power. His death in 1987 created a power vacuum that soon brought his old nemesis, the corrupt Karunanidhi, back into power. MGR was a complex man who triumphed over poverty and tried to improve the lot of the people who revered him. However, in the end, he was a god that failed.

Shankar is going to direct Rajini's next movie and the process for the same has been started.
It was after lots of gossips about Rajini's next movie - few said he is planning to do a movie with Kamal and it was also told that Manirathnam is going to direct Rajini, but all those gossip baloons were punctured and the clear - real news is that Shankar wi
ll be directing Rajini in his next movie.
Rajini has put a condition to the producer and the director.
As the movie is being acted by Rajini, its natural that there will be lots of bidders to distribute the same and in the case of Chandramukhi, it was told that AVM minted to the tune of 100 crores through Shivaji, so Rajini instructed the producer that the movie shall never be sold more that 20 crores altogether.
Now there are gossips that, as AVM was into trouble as the volume of Biz was leaked out, fear over the trouble, the producer is spreading such a news among the media!!!
