Santhanam bags comedian role in 'Endhiran'

It's not Vadivelu nor Vivek. Santhanam has been given the prestigious opportunity to enact the comedian's role in superstar Rajinikanth's 'Endhiran'.

This appointment comes as a big boost to the young Santhanam who is already making waves with his comic way of acting. Director Shankar hitherto used the services of Vadivelu in 'Kadhalan' and 'Mudhalvan' whereas Vivek was the comedian in the films 'Boys', Anniyan' and 'Sivaji'.

The opportunity of acting with Rajinikanth in 'Endhiran' might just propel the talented Santhanan to absolute stardom.

Will A.R. Rahman concur with Ilayaraja?

Going by the saying “old wine in a new bottle” remixes and remakes seem to have become the norm of the day. At a time when the new generation is being hounded by critics for using yesteryear hits, maestro Ilayaraja has boldly decided to remix his own composition Madha Un Kovilil… from the film Archanai for Naan Kadavul. Thus far, only songs

those were more than a decade old was considered for remixing. But debutant L.V. Ganesh, son of famous musician L. Vaidyanathan, has decided to remix A.R. Rahman’s Kadhalikkuum Pennin Kaigal from the film Kadhalan. This one will be for Theeyavan, which features newbie Uday and Mamudhurai-fame Midhuna in the lead roles. However, M.S. Bhaskar and Arthi will shake their legs for this song making it a comical affair.

Rahman's song to be remixed

A R Rahman's popular chartbuster "Kadhalikkuum Pennin Kaigal" from the movie 'Kadhalan' would be remixed soon for a movie titled 'Theeyavan'.

Interestingly the remix song would feature comedians M S Baskar and Aarthi dancing. 'Theeyavan' features newcomer Udhay and Mamudhurai girl Midhuna in the lead role.

Untill now only songs of M S Viswanathan and Ilayaraja were remixxed. It is perhaps the first time that Rahman's popular song is being remixed.
