Direction: Rajesh
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja

The team of Arya – Santhanam – Rajesh has successfully delivered a comic caper with little in the name of story or script. The movie stands in the strength of its dialogues and the riotous combo of Santhanam and Arya.

With the minimum budget the movie is made of, it has already garnered profits for producers and distributors.

Vallakottai


Cast: Arjun, Haripriya, Vincent Asokan.
Direction: A. Venkatesh
Music: Dhina
Production:T.D.Raja






Action King is back with an action flick. A Tamil remake of the Malayalam movie called Mayavi starring Mammooty, this movie has nothing new to offer and hence ends up leaving a faint, familiar aftertaste.

Trade Talk:
Although released on the Diwali day, the movie has not received a big opening. Rural centers could provide respite however.

Endhiran


Cast: Rajinikanth, Aishwarya Rai, Karunas, Santhanam.
Direction: Shankar
Music: AR Rahman
Production: Sun Pictures








Shankar treads the sci-fi path, backed by the cash-rich Sun network. The result is a visual spectacle involving some of the best names in animation, makeup and graphics in world cinema. The movie also has drowned Superstar’s image in the visual extravaganza.

Having ruled the roost since its release, Endhiran is still holding court in many release centers.

Mynaa


Cast: Vidharth, Amala Paul.
Direction: Prabhu Solomon
Music: D Imman
Production:John Max








Of all the Diwali releases, it seems like Myna has the potential to stick around at the box office. Myna is an intense love story set in the backdrop of a mountain village among thickets of forest. It is also a sneak peek into the realities of human right violations meted out at prisoners.

Positive buzz is already created by movie buffs and glowing reviews. Collections are not far now.

Va Quarter Cutting


Cast: Shiva, Lekha Washington, SPB Charan.
Direction: Pushkar-Gayatri
Music: GV Prakash Kumar
Production: Sashikanth Sivaji








Va is director duo Pushkar-Gayathri’s quirky take on Chennai’s night life. It is also an expose of Chennai’s underbelly, its sleazy streets in the nights, spooky cemeteries and weirdos. Shiva, SPB Charan and Lekha play significant characters.

Trade Talk:
It is difficult to judge the movie with the initial reviews and word of mouth since they seem to showcase an inconsistent pattern, much like the movie itself.

Public Talk:
Mixed reviews

No. Days Completed: 3
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 254
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 81%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 43,22,915

Uthama Puthiran


Cast: Dhanush, Genelia, Vivek.
Direction: Mithran R. Jawahar
Music: Vijay Antony
Production:Mohan Appa Rao







Mithran Jawahar is back with what he does best: importing yesteryear Telugu hits to Tamil. Now it is ‘Ready’ that is made with Genilia and Dhanush in the lead. The comedy is also fuelled by Vivek’s emotional Ekambaram character.

Trade Talk:
Initial responses are still pouring in and trade is still analyzing the results.

Public Talk:
Genilia is as perky and sprightly as ever!

Rajini's letter to Mynaa team

Superstar Rajinikanth who is having the habit of encouraging fresh talents and creations as when it comes to limelight, has expressed his heartfelt appreciations to the director Prabhu Solomon after watching the special screening of ‘Mynaa’.
Mynaa is about the travails of a driver subjected to various hardships in the hilly terrains where he operates. Viddharth and Amala Paul play the lead roles; D Imman is the music composer and Vairabalan the art director.
Reportedly Rajinikanth gave a hug to Prabhu Solomon and had expressed that he’d wished to be a part of the movie. Moreover the star has also penned a personal signed letter written in Tamil to the director of Mynaa, Prabhu Solomon as a token of his appreciation. Superstar also sent a bouquet to the lead pair as a token of his appreciation.
The super star had stated in the appreciation letter that he wish he had been in some scenes of ‘Mynaa’. He praised Thambi Ramaiyya’s role in the movie and was fully in appreciation for the actor.

Every man has a beast in his heart. Owing to society and our traditional values, we don’t let others to see it from close. But it so happens that the beast unleashes itself in certain circumstances which is beyond the control of human mind. Since I have lived and grown among those kind of people in the society during my early days, I can easily relate myself with the movie. “I could see those characters I have confronted in my life in Mynaa”, he has mentioned.
Praising the efforts of actors, he said that each actor and actress in the movie has done a brilliant job which is the evident in this movie. The highlight of the letter is when he mentions “Mynaa is a Dravidian movie. This movie is for every citizen of Tamil Nadu”. These kind of movies are a rarity in Tamil cinema. It is like “Kurunji Malar”, he feels.




About the crew, he states that Prabhu Solomon has done a very commendable job in directing this movie. Sukumar’s camera ensures that the movie is real and not otherwise. The cinematography is a visual treat. D Imman’s music complements the movie’s intentions very well. 

He praised the efforts of all crew members, including Thambi Ramaiyya, and said that they have given a visual feast to the audience. Rajini also appreciated the efforts of Shalom studios, AGS and Udhayanidhi Stalin to make this movie a success.
Rajini’s only regret, after watching Mynaa, is that he could not act in the movie. “I would have been happy if I had acted in a few scenes in Mynaa”, he concludes.
