Suriya & Vikram were the first choice for this Film
25/11/2014
Director Vasanthabalan who hugely impressed in Angadi Theru is ready with another classic Kaaviya Thalaivan which is slated for release this friday. The film is about the lives of two theatre artistes played by Siddharth and Prithviraj and the competition that exists between them in a small drama troupe. In a recent interview Director Vasanthabalan revealed that he initially wanted Suriya and Vikram in the lead roles but later opted for Siddharth and Prithiviraj.
A.R.Rahman's soundtrack for the film was already rated 5 stars by most of the critics and will be a huge backbone for the film. "The reason we approached Rahman sir is because music drives the story in our film. We wanted someone who could promise us great music. Rahman sir spent nearly two years to give the kind of music, which plays a vital role in the story, Even for Rahman sir, this project was challenging as he hasn't worked on something like this before. He even gave us most of the songs even before we went on floors with the film, contrary to how he usually works on a project." said Vasanthabalan to IANS.

I's financial controversy, Salary not being paid ?
05/11/2014
Director Shankar's magnum opus I has been allegedly caught in a financial controversy, The film was rumored to be made around a budget of 150 crores making it the biggest film ever to be made in India. But Shankar in a recent interview denied those allegations stating "For some reason, people like to exaggerate how much I spend on a film. Trust me when I tell you that the budget of I is less than Rs. 100 crore."
Now the latest is Murali Manohar one of the assistant directors in I claimed he has not been paid his remuneration for the past two months and posted this on his facebook account “Pasikuthunnu veliye solla enaku endha vekkamum illa. ennaa kekarathu pichai illa. uzhaichathukaana kooli. ?#?aascar ?#?i” (I am not ashamed to say that I’m hungry. I'm not begging for undeserved money. I’m asking for the money that I deserve to be paid.)
The assistant director who was then contacted by Deccan Chronicle said “I have not been paid for the last two months for working in the film. I am speaking on behalf of other ADs too.I have been unwell and running a fever, and I don’t have the money to go to the hospital. It’s not easy for me, as I have to support my wife and child.”
Aascar Ravichandran the producer of the film however denied the above allegations stating that he has settled all the money and everything has been done correctly. Vimal the production manager of this film said it was surprising to him to see things being blown out of proportion and said “Only the dues for the last month are yet to be paid. We have paid salaries to all.”
I to be Postponed further ?
05/11/2014
The much expected film of the year, I might be delayed even further. The film which was initially slated for Diwali release is yet to have a clear release date. Now Chiyaan Vikram in a recent interview to Deccan Chronicle had this say “The film’s post-production and special-effects are taking longer than expected. It has very complicated effects. Plus, we are dubbing the film in multiple languages. We are working round-the-clock. We are in no hurry. Nor are we competing with any other film.”
Chiyaan who lost 25kgs for a role in I said at one point he completely stopped meeting people “I couldn't go on explaining to them that this was just for a film I was doing. People thought I was unwell. I just switched off my phone and stopped meeting people".

Aascar Ravichandran on why I is getting delayed ?
03/11/2014
Shankar & Chiyaan Vikram's I is the undoubtedly the most expected film, the fact that a mere 90 second teaser has amassed more than 8 million views in Youtube is a clear sign of the huge buzz around the film. Producer Aascar Ravichandran recently opened up to a daily on why the film's release is being delayed. Aascar said "If the film I was made for money then i would have released it a long time ago but the film has such herculean efforts of huge number of people and releasing the film in a hurry won't just be right. My one film (I) will make people talk about the 100 years of Tamil Cinema."
The I Producer went on reveal that he will soon announce the official release date.

Release Date of Chiyaan's I !
31/10/2014
The Year 2014 will draw to an end and 2015 will begin in an explosive manner with biggies like Superstar's Lingaa, Thala's Yennai Arindhaal, Ulaganayagan's Uthama Villain and Chiyaan's 10 Enradhukulla, Dhanush's Anegan all lined up for release. Now the release date of Chiyaan Vikram - Director Shankar's Magnum Opus I could hold the key to determine the release date of all the above flicks. The buzz around the film has been absolutely epic and needs an solo release to fulfil its complete potential.
Now there is currently a buzz going around in K'Town that the makers are looking at Superstar's Birthday December 12th as a possible release date. There is also a buzz that Superstar's Lingaa with K.S Ravikumar might itself release on the same day as birthday treat to Superstar fans. An official confirmation from the makers might clear the air. With the spectacular audio launch of I in Tollywood with Sylvester Stallone and Jackie Chan yet to happen there is still no clear date for I's release.

On Vijay - ARM said Vijay was his friend and revealed some unknown titbits on Vijay, He said Vijay has a great sense of acting regarding camera range i.e he knows what reaction to portray for a close up shot or a wide shot. No matter how many re-takes are done, his body language wont change meaning there won't by any jump shots in edit.
ARM went on add that Vijay has a keen interest on listening to scripts, even if he gets a half day break he listens to scripts.
On Suriya - ARM called Suriya a hard worker and a sincere actor. His dedication and commitment to differentiate between the two roles in Ghajini was a huge advertisement for the film.
On Vikram - Though ARM has never directed Chiyaan, He said he holds Vikram in the highest respects. Despite the availability of so much technological advancements the man has taken so much pain to alter himself so many times for one project. That is real passion.

Superstar & Chiyaan to decide Dhanush's Future !
20/10/2014
Dhanush's next Kollywood offering after the blockbuster Velai illa Pattathari is K.V.Anand's Anegan. The film's shooting has been completed and Harris Jayaraj is currently into re-recording works. But the makers are very hesitant to schedule a release date for the film. The reason being Superstar's Lingaa and Chiyaan Vikram's I.
The release date of Lingaa and I is still very much unclear and since most of the screens will be blocked for these films leaving only secondary screens for other the makers of Anegan are still waiting for Lingaa and I to decide their release date.
Anegan stars Dhanush, Amyra Dastur, Navarasa Nayagan Karthik.

When Chiyaan underwent Medical Treatment for I
12/10/2014
If there was ever an actor who symbolizes complete commitment and dedication, it's Chiyaan Vikram. The man of many faces stirred up a storm with just the 60 second teaser. Now here is yet another example of Chiyaan's dedication, It's known that Vikram is dubbing for Tamil, Telugu and the Hindi version of the I film, Chiyaan apparently required medical treatment for his throat after completing Tamil Version but the actor despite the pain flew to Mumbai & Hyderabad to dub for Bollywood and Tollywood version.
"There is a hunchback character in the film and the character required a voice which would have to sound gruff, but at the same time, not annoy viewers. Only Vikram could do it and he sportingly, took it upon himself to dub that part as well in the Tamil version. But he required medical treatment after doing it. Despite the strain it put on his voice, Vikram took it upon himself to dub for the Hindi and Telugu versions too and is now in the process of doing it." Reported a source to Times of India
Shankar talks about Vikram's Commitment, Kamal Haasan's Mudhalvan, I and Endhiran 2 !
12/10/2014
Director Shankar is without a shred of doubt is one of the leading if not the leading director from our Country, His Filmography speaks for himself. The Magnum Opus director's latest offering I with Chiyaan Vikram is the hottest film in our country currently. Shankar in a recent interview to the Hindu talked about I and revealed few intresting details from his previous films here are the extracts - On I's Budget : "For some reason, people like to exaggerate how much I spend on a film. Trust me when I tell you that the budget of I is less than Rs. 100 crore. I try hard to salvage every rupee. When I’m on the spot, I keep my eyes open for equipment we can return and save money".
- On Chiyaan Vikram's commitment for I : "He is willing to go all out to do what it takes for a film. When he lost weight for I, it was because he wanted to. Again, there were rumours that I was being unduly harsh on my crew. A stranger who wanted a picture with me suddenly asked, “Why are you torturing Vikram?” I really am not. It was his idea, and I agreed it would be good for the film."
- On missing out on Superstar for Mudhalvan : "Well, I wanted to do Mudhalvan with Kamal Haasan too! He was busy with Hey Ram (2000) when I called him about it. By the time I got around to telling him the film’s one-liner, we had already made it with Arjun".
- On his next movie : "I have almost finished three! I’m not sure which one I’ll start work on next though. Yes, I really want to make its sequel with Rajinikanth(Endhiran 2)), but I don’t know if it will be next, or even if it will happen at all. For now, I’m waiting to hear from my producer about the release of I".
