I am a sex worker :Arai En 305il Kadavul

Arai En 305il Kadavul produced by S Pictures directed by Simbu Devan is receiving mixed response from media and audience. While the film appeals to a section of the public, some of them feel it differently. The heroine of the film Madhumitha made her Kollywood entry through Parthiban’s Kudaikkul Mazhai and subsequently went on to do a few films. In Arai En.., Madhumitha has done the role of a commercial sex worker and when she was questioned on this, she had this to say, “When the role of a sex worker was offered to me in Arai En 305il Kadavul, I was very skeptical about accepting the same especially when I am at the beginning of my career. But when I realized that the dialogue I speak during the climax was the turning point in the life of the hero, I immediately accepted the role”.

She goes on to add that the director Simbudevan etched her character mindful of the fact not to reveal any trace of her profession anywhere in the film. When speaking about her next film Yogi with director Ameer, Madhumitha says that it is the role of her lifetime and her prowess as an actress would totally come to the fore in the film.

arai en 305 il kadavul :Review



Arai En 305il Kadavul: Music review By Malathy Sunderam

An eagerly awaited summer special from the house of Shankar (producer) with Simbudevan as director and Vidyasagar scoring the music. As per the director's own words, this movie features two well known comedians Ganja Karuppu and Santhanam as heroes based out of the middle-class belt of Triplicane. They appear as Raasu and Mokkai. They undergo an odd fantasy experience halfway through the movie with amusing results. Madhumitha and
Arai En 305il Kadavul
Jyothirmayee are the two heroines. Five songs are featured in the movie.

Adadada:
Lyrics: P.Vijay, Vocals: Vineeth, Jayamurthi

The fun conversation at the beginning indicates clearly that the heroes are in the middle of a fantasy. They appear to be on the moon! Cheeky references to the 'moon' culled from old movies makes one smile. They feel God-like, and plan to expand over Jupiter, Mars, practically everywhere! Funky synthesizer-music reinforces the fantasy feeling. Impish, Latin music-like effort from a melody master!



Kadhal Sei:

Lyrics: N.Muthukumar, Vocals: Vidyasagar

A nice surprise from Vidyasagar! The song advocates an expansive flow of love that reminds you of J.Krishnamurthy! Nature, life, people, animals, nothing is spared. We are asked to embrace everything. Sunny beats too! Vaguely reminds you of 'Unnai Arindaal' from an old MGR movie. Even the tone of the song has a distinct MGR feel to it. Pleasant lyrics from Muthukumar. The whistling at the end is quite jaunty. Vidyasagar sounds somewhat tentative here.


Arai En 305il Kadavul
Aavaaram Poovukkum:
Lyrics: Kabilan, Vocals: Shreya Ghosal

The song opens with energetic drumbeats that beautifully slide into a folksy 'Themmangu' beat immediately. Portrays the heady romantic feelings of a young girl in love. The mellifluous voice of Shreya effortlessly pours forth many shades of emotions. Lovely use of the shehnai. The refrain ‘Iyaare Iyaare manam thayyare thayyare' is very hummable. The song has a nice 'Kerala' rhythm to it. With evocative photography, could become a hit.


Thenralukku Nee:

Lyrics: Yugabharathi, Vocals: Karthik and Swetha Mohan

Images from everyday life that portray sweet togetherness have been lyrically strung together in this duet. Phrases like 'Muttratthukku nee Veppamaram' are lovely. What is interesting about this song is that the interludes seem to do some 'billing and cooing' of their own. Makes you wonder how it has been filmed. Quite cute, really.



Kuraionrum illai:
Lyrics: Muthulingam, Vocals: Harini

A surprising twist to the well-known M.S.Subbulakshmi hit originally composed by Rajaji. Of course only the pallavi is used

here. Simple but inspiring lyrics. Sung plaintively in a sweet voice by Harini.The interludes faithfully follow the raga Sivaranjani right through. Haunting use of flute. leisurely beats befitting the mood of the song.



Aavaaram:


A nice variation of song three…probably with the second heroine?


Verdict:


Usually melody-conscious Vidyasagar has attempted a slightly different modern kind of music here, probably in keeping with the unusual theme of the story. He has to be appreciated for not resorting to aggressive beats that sometimes leaves you all knotted up inside with tension! The songs take time to grow on you. A nice try!

Rajini's next movie releases tommrow

Sivaji - The Boss didn’t even need subtitles to pull people to the theatres in Mumbai. The magic of Rajinikanth was so empowering. Now the Superstar is set to weave his magic one more time on the people of cosmopolitan, but with his previous movie. Yes, that’s right, now Chandramukhi will be released in Mumbai, in Hindi and the best part is that Rajinikanth himself will be rendering voice.

The movie will be released by Dilip Dhanwani of the Royal Film Company with 150 prints. This is a new record for a dubbed movie.

Chandramukhi though based on the Malayalam original, Manichitrathazhu starring Mohanlal, did exceptional business in Kerala. It also broke couple of records in Andhra. The movie ran for close to 900 days at Shanthi theatre in Chennai. Now it is all set to woo the Mumbai cinema fans. In-spite of Bhool Bhulaiyaa, the Akshay starrer, which was again based on Manichitrathazhu running well in the city, distributor Dilip Dhanwani is very confident of the movie’s prospects. Talking to Behindwoods he said, “Rajinikanth is a big brand here. Though the actor has stopped doing Bollywood movies, people remember him for his unique style. I am sure they will come to just see him.”

No more Robo

In less than two weeks of its announcement, looks like superstar Rajnikanth’s next mammoth venture Robot could be renamed. Media insiders speculate that Robot might possibly be re-christened as Iyandira - its Tamil equivalent - in order to befit the Tamil Nadu government’s resolution to write off entertainment tax for movies with Tamil titles. The makers of Robot are likely to make an announcement soon confirming or denying this.

shankar talks to rajini for sony


Sony Pictures India is said to have been so impressed with Shankar's Robot that they have offered to produce it right away, which they say, might cross the Rs.100 crore mark, making it India's most expensive movie ever made. The production house is also said to have asked Shankar to convince the superstar to feature in this mega budget sci-fi flick as they feel only he can bring in the Shankar moolah, a belief that has stemmed after the stupendous success of Sivaji. The production house also believes that the project becomes financially viable only if it is made in three major languages – Hindi, Tamil & Telugu.
