Feb 28, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Kollywood chocolate boy Prithviraj will now step into the shoes of Kamal Hassan, as the lead actor in the remake of the Tamil blockbuster, Kaaki Chattai. Kamal Hassan played the role of an undercover cop in the original, which was produced by Sathya Movies, and directed by the renowned film maker, Rajashekhar.
Pramod Pappan will direct the Malayalam remake, and Jagadeesh Chandran will produce it under his banner, Kichu Films. Although the plot is similar to the original, Rajesh Jayaram is working on the intricacies of the script to make it relevant to the present time.
Earlier, Puri Jaganath had partially replicated the premise of Kaaki Chattai in his Telugu movie, Pokkiri, which was remade in Tamil under the same title, and then in Hindi – Wanted, starring Salman Khan.

Feb 28, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): His debut film, Mirugam, may have fetched rave reviews and laurels for his performance, but it is his second film, Eeram, that catapulted him to fame. Eeram is a supernatural thriller, and it proved to be the bigger milestone in actor Aadhi’s career, leading to an onslaught of offers from Kollywood film makers.
At present, Ayyanar, the movie that Aadhi has worked on forever, it seems, is nearing completion and another of his movies, Kumba Mela, has completed 50 per cent of its shooting. Produced by Michael Rayappan, of Nadodigal (2009) fame, and directed by Vijaya Prakash, the story of Kumba Mela revolves around the relationship between a father and his son. Needless to say, the commercial ingredients – romance, comedy and action – will be a part of the movie as well.
Aadhi’s co-stars in the movie are Poorna (female lead), yesteryear actors, Ravichandran and K. R. Vijaya, as well as Suresh, of Panneer Pushpangal fame, in a powerful role. The unit of the movie did not want the usual grandeur that accompanies a launch, so they started shooting without announcing an official media release.
