Singam -First look
The forthcoming movie of Surya is 'Singam' which is directed by Hari. Surya's 25th film is packed with action, romance and comedy , all the necessary condiments in a Hari's movie. The shooting started in August 3009 and the film is expected to hit the screens in 2010.
Singam- Vijay or Surya?
There were gossips and confusions about who is acting in Singam. Originally Vijay wanted to name his movie as Singam, but the name was already registered by Hari. So Vijay wanted to take up the name 'puli' (tiger ) but that name had also been taken up, so Vijay named his film as 'vettaikkaran'.
Heroine
Anushka shetty is the heroine of Singam. Anushka entered tamil film industry in the film 'run' but did not gain much popularity. Her recent film 'Vettaikaran' with vijay has put her in the limelight. It is widely questioned that will Anushka look good as Surya's pair as she is taller than most heroines but trailers show that they are a hot pair.
Story
The story of Singam has been kept very hushhush by the crew, but it is said to be a police story with Surya as a honest (also goodlooking!) police officer who fights the smuggling activities that go on around Rameshwaram. Surya swept people particularly youngsters off their feet with his looks, attitude and style as a police officer in 'kaaka kaaka'. Expectations soar high with his second film portraying a police officer. It is expected that Hari and Surya will do justice to people's expectations.
Direction
Hari is one of the director who gives 'satisfaction guarenteed' films in kollywood. His earlier police film 'Saami' was a box office hit. His films with Surya, 'Aaru' and 'Vel' were fairly successful. his latest film was Seval with Bharath which was fairly successful. He will not disappoint the fans with 'Singam'
Shooting
The shooting of the film which started last year had taken place in Tirunelveli, courtallam, ambasamudram, Tuticorin and later in Hyderabad and Vishakapattinam.
Other notable persons in the film are Nasser and Prakashraj. Comedy is by Vivek.
Song leaked out?
The music for the film is by Devi Sri Prasad. In this film he remixes a song from yesteryears, which is Rajinikanth's 'pothuvaha en manasu Thangam'. The song 'Singam naan singam' was leaked out by a few websites, the assistant to the music director was first suspected but now the music director has approached the cyber crime divison to seek help.
VT Vijayan is the editor and K.Kathir is the art director. Priyan handles the camera of the film.
