'Naan Kadavul' - Pongal release?

Bala and his crew finally have completed their project. They have been shooting for around 300 days and have now said that they are done. They even plan to release the audio in December.
The film deals with the nuances of the minds of saints and sadhus. Originally planned with Ajith, he pulled out of the film after the director retorted to rowdyism to settle financial matters with Ajith, much to contempt of people inside and outside the film industry. Then Bala booked Arya for the project. Arya is said to have worked hard for the film, grew hair and followed a saintly lifestyle to make himself merge with the character.
The film has high expectations for the skill of the director and all the sensational news surrounding Ajith and Bala. Fans are eagerly awaiting the film.

Hurray, Ajith's next film!!

Ajith is back on track. His fans are elated. Yes the 'Ultimate star' has signed a new project, 'Asal'. Produced by Sivaji productions , the film is directed by Sara. Initially Gowtham Menon was named as a director but for other reasons he could not take up the assignment. After considering directors like Vishnuvaradan and Dharani, it is now finalised for Sara. It is worth to remember that Saran has directed the films,'Kaadhal Mannan' and 'Attagasam' which were hits. The director has given a series of hits including 'Vasoolraja mbbs'.He is currently working on a project,'Modhi vilayadu', starring Vinay and Kajal Agarrwal. He will take up 'Asal' after its completion. Music director for 'Asal' is none other than Harris Jeyaraj.Ajith's fans are obviously over the moon and they say they cant wait for its release.

Simbu trying to lure back Nayan?

Thus far and no further- That is what Nayanthara decided after her break up with Simbu. Their affair started with a controversial poster that Simbu shot for his film, "Vallavan". He then performed various stunts including threatening suicide, if his love is not accepted. Nayanthara finally gave in and the couple had a great time on and off screen. Nayan has been said to seek blessings by touching the feet of T.Rajendhar as a faithful future daughter in law. But Simbu showed his ugly face after the release of Vallavan. He denied any affair with Nayan, much to her shock. It was said that Nayan attempted suicide unable to bear this. But she reclaimed her poise and worked hard to give hit films. But Simbu continued his ugly stunts, by releasing their intimate photos in the net and as MMS. But all this could not stop Nayan from her success and determination. Simbu continued to suck at Kollywood. He became more of a joke. Even actress Bhavana boldly declared that she will not act with Simbu because of his behaviour with Nayan.
But unfortunately Simbu has not learnt his lessons. For his contemplated new project, it seems he is sending people trying to get Nayan act in the film. Nayanthara has outrightly denied his invitation. Simbu hasn't quit trying though. Tamil fans want Simbu to understand that Nayanthara is too smart for him.
