Roshan Andrews, who was busy filming Casanova with Mohanlal couldn't complete the film as Mohanlal had given out impromptu dates to his best friend and director Priyadarshan for his Bollywood flick Tezz and Malayalam film Oru Marubhoomi Katha.

Prithviraj, who is popular for his outspoken behaviour decided to quit Mumbai Police as he was tired of the delay. Meanwhile, it is Mammootty who has cashed in on Prithviraj's loss. Mammootty has now been roped in to play the lead role in Mumbai Police.

Rajini to act in India’s first animated ’3D’ film

On a hiatus following his illness, Tamil superstar Rajinikanth will now act in India's first animated 3D film directed by his younger daughter, Soundarya.

Work on his under-production 'Rana', on whose sets he fell ill early this year, has been postponed in favour of the 3D film 'Kochadaiyaan'.

According to a release here, the film will be released in August 2012, after which Rajinikanth will resume shooting for 'Rana'.

This is the first time that a 3D film with "performance capturing technology" is being produced in India.

The Hollywood blockbuster 'Avatar', directed by James Cameron and the recent movie 'The Adventures of Tintin' directed by Steven Spielberg, have been produced with the same technology, the release said.

K S Ravikumar, director of 'Rana', has written the story screenplay, dialogue besides supervising the direction of 'Kochadaiyaan'.

Produced by Eros International and Media one Global entertainment Limited, work on the film is progressing at a fast pace and it is scheduled for release in August 2012, the release said.

Rajinikanth fell sick earlier this year on the sets of 'Rana' and was treated at two hospitals in the city before being flown to Singapore for treatment of a reported kidney ailment.

The 61-year-old actor recently made a cameo appearance in the superhit 'Ra.One' featuring Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan.

Vijay's father backs out from producing Tupaki?

Vijay's Father SA Chandrasekhar, who was supposed to produce the forthcoming Tamil movie to be directed by AR Murugadoss, has backed out of producing the film. Now, it looks like Kalaipuli S Dhanu has come forward to take up the mega-budget project.

Sources say that just when people thought that Vijay and AR Murugadoss' forthcoming movie, which is reportedly titled Tupaki, is gearing up for the launch, there emerged a surprising news of change hands. It is said that the filmmaker demanded Rs. 12 crore as a remuneration to helm the project and he refused to cut down his salary.

SA Chandrasekhar was not ready to pay the hefty amount to AR Murugadoss and decided to opt out of Tupaki. This is when, Kalaipuli S Dhanu came into the picture. It may be recalled that the producer had signed Vijay for the film to be directed by Seeman but unfortunately, the proposed project did not take off.

Thupaki starring Vijay and Kajal Aggarwal will be launched at the Thiruchendur Murugan temple, one of the six abodes of Lord Muruga.

’Sri Rama Rajyam’ a must watch

"Sri Rama Rajyam"; Cast: Nandamuri Balakrishna, Nayantara, Akkineni Nageswar Rao, Srikanth, Brahmanandam, K.R. Vijay, Murali Mohan, Master Tanay Teja and Master Satvik. Producer: Yalamanchili Sai Baba; Director: Bapu; Dialogue Writer: Mullapudi Venkata Ramana; Music Composer: Ilayaraja; Cinematography: P.R.K Raju; Rating: ****

Octogenarian director Bapu has been described as one of the top directors who specialised in making films that represented nativity, culture and richness of folk elements peculiar to the Telugu language.

Bapu and late writer Mullapudi Venkataramana teamed up to deliver classics like "Muthyaala Moggu", "Budhdhimanthudu" and "Andaala Ramudu".

Venkataramana died few months ago and this time Bapu teamed up with Ramana to deliver another classic called "Sri Rama Rajyam", a remake of 1960s Telugu hit "Lava Kusha".

While the Senior NTR, who dominated the Telugu film industry like a Colossus for more than four decades, had acted in the original film directed by C.S. Rao and Pulliah, Bapu's film has Nandamuri Balakrishna, NTR's son, in the lead.

"Sri Rama Rajyam" is one film that the Telugu film industry can be proud of. In these days, when everything is commercialised and films have an overdose of sex and violence, kudos to the producer to opt for a mythological film, which is made tastefully and with commitment.

"Rama Rajyam" is a well-known story, so it's a challenge to remake such a classic, but Bapu's good work turns the remake into another classic.

Bapu wins his first battle by picking up the right artists. Selecting legendary actor Akkineni Nageshwara Rao, contemporary of NTR, to play Valmiki and actress Nayantara for Sita's role are certainly worthy choices.

He chose to narrate the film in a peculiar style, a fusion of artistic and tasteful commercial elements. The art work and designing part is also perfect.

Ilayaraja's music is another major attraction. Dialogues and song lyrics are so good that you do not want to miss them.

It would be difficult to pick up holes in the films which appeals strongly to people who want to look at films that offer variety.

Balakrishna, Nayantara and Akkineni Nageshwara excel in their respective roles.

Balakrishna effectively portrays Rama and comes out as a winner, which seemed a difficult task considering his legendary father's portrayal of Rama has penetrated deep into the Telugu audience psyche.

Nayantara's swan song role as Sita is so good that you think she has opted for the best film to bid adieu to acting.

The two child artists have also performed very well. Other artists are sure to make an impact. Technically also film is strong.

"Sri Rama Rajyam" stands taller among mythological classics and may well set standards like other Telugu classics like "Annamayya", "Krishnarjuna Yuddham" and "Ramadasu"

Filmgoers, who look for classics, should not miss this film.

Jayaram's love for elephants continue with Thiruvambadi Thamban

The script for Thiruvambadi Thamban is written by Suresh Babu and stars Jagathy and Nedumudi Venu amongst others.

Through his character, Jayaram wants to bring to fore the problems faced by elephant contractors in bringing elephants to Kerala. The film is being produced by Gini Cinema and Ouseppachan will be the music director.

Johny Antony, Milan Jaleel and Mammooty had earlier been together creating the super hit 'Thuruppughulan' which came out years ago.

Vijay pairing up with Kajal Aggarwal in AR Murugadoss' film

The hunt for the female lead in Vijay and AR Murgadoss' forthcoming movie seems to have come to an end. After considering many top names of South Indian film industries and the Bollywood, the makers of the film have zeroed in on Kajal Aggarwal.

The Malayalam movie industry, which is known to have churned out classics like Ajayan directed film Perumthachan and veterans such as Mammootty and Mohanlal are in a desperate state of affairs. The reason for the downfall are the never ending strikes and conflicts.

Suresh Kumar, a veteran producer said that if the industry has to survive, then costs have to be slashed. Speaking to a leading newspaper, Kumar said, “How many of you know that in this calendar year, out of 70 films that have been released, six ended up in the red, and 30 films have had a collection of less than Rs 1 million? This is the sorry state of affairs of producers.”

Well, grapevine is abuzz with the news that the makers of the film have zeroed in on her for the song.

After much deliberation, the movie bosses have signed Meenakshi Dixit for the item number in Billa 2. They reportedly considered quite a few actresses before roping in the actress.

Meenakshi Dixit will be seen dancing with Ajith Kumar for the special song in Billa 2. They will shake their legs for the tune composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja.

Mamta Mohandas to get engaged today

Mamta Mohandas will be getting engaged today to her Bahrain based childhood sweetheart. The wedding will reportedly take place next year.

11/11/11 is a special date for Mamta Mohandas and her fiancé for many reasons. The day 11/11/11 occurs once in 100 years. Moreover, the family had many other reasons for choosing the date 11/11/11 as her engagement date.

Speaking to Kochi Times, Mamta Mohandas' mother revealed, “The auspicious mahurat apart, there is another reason why we chose the day for Mamta's engagement. The groom's family was building a house in Kochi and they had decided to celebrate the house warming ceremony of the house on this particular day. More so because his grandmother has 11 siblings - most of them well into their 80s and 90s - and they wanted to make it a jovial get-together of the 11 elders. That is how they zeroed in on this date.”
