Thaakka Thaakka (Thakka Thakka) Movie Review And Rating: Tedious Screenplay Does The Damage!
Thaakka Thaakka (Thakka Thakka) starring Vikranth has been released today all over Tamil Nadu. Continue reading our movie review to know what this action drama has to offer.
Thakka Thakka (U/A): Book Your Tickets Right Away!
Thaakka Thaakka Plot:
Sathya, played by Vikranth, experiences a horrible childhood as he grows up watching his helpless mother after she is forcefully drafted into the world of human trafficking.
Bala, played by Arul Dass, who had earlier pushed Sathya's mother into his business of prostitution, kills her unintentionally and thereby orphaning Sathya.
Not knowing how to go about his life, he ends up in Chennai and aims at starting life afresh. But, in a cinematic twist he once again comes in contact with the man responsible for his mother's death, giving rise to vengeance which turns this flick into a revenge drama.
Performances:
Vikranth shines in the action sequences, making us believe that he is indeed an action hero. Otherwise too his acting skills are pretty decent.
Abhinaya has come up with a neat performance but special mention goes to one of the baddies, Arul Dass of Soodhu Kavvum fame, for stitching together a captivating performance.
Technicalities:
Thaakka Thaakka is technically solid, barring its lacklustre and slow screenplay which spoils the fun and hampers the uniqueness with which this film is treated, though being a revenge drama.
Easily, the stand out performer in the technical department is the film's cinematographer, Sujith Sarang. He has managed to capture the nuances of each and every scene, especially in those scenes shot during the dusk.
While songs may irritate you a touch, background score by Jakes Bejoy is decent enough for a action drama. In fact, Vikranth's screen presence in some scenes is elevated purely because of the BGM.
Overall View:
Thaakka Thaakka is an honest attempt by its director Sanjeev. Having said that, ordinary screenplay turns it into a mundane flick.
Thani Oruvan Total Weekend (First Three Days) Box Office Predictions: Best Opening For Jayam Ravi!
Thani Oruvan is expected to do well at the box office over the weekend (first three days) as the movie had gathered positive reviews from both critics and fans. Total box office collections of this Jayam Ravi starrer might end up as the actor's best so far, according to trade analysts.
Thani Oruvan (U): Book Your Tickets Right Away!
The film has also managed to swoop into many theatres in the Land of Liberty which is an added advantage as United States is fast turning into a gold mine for Tamil movie producers, thanks to a huge difference in the USD-INR ratio.
Since this is a weekend of festivals to many in states like Kerala and Karnataka, Thani Oruvan might enjoy a decent opening in its neighbouring states as well.
When it comes to Tamil Nadu, the film is expected to collect big in Chennai. Trade sources have indicated that the psychological thriller has a good chance of collecting close to 1.25 crores in the capital city from its first three days.
In the whole of Tamil Nadu, Thani Oruvan, by the end of its first weekend, might accumulate close to 9.5 crore rupees, which is a huge number for a Jayam Ravi starrer.

Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan And Thala Ajith To Follow Ilayathalapathy Vijay?
Right after the news Ilayathalapathy Vijay's Puli has been postponed from September 17th to October 1st made the headlines, a string of movies made the vacant month of September their own.
Starting next month, Tamil movie buffs will be more than occupied with many exciting films and things might heat up even further when this year approaches its dusk.
While films like Paayum Puli, Rajini Murugan and Trisha Illana Nayantara might light up September, October is all set to begin with a bang and might have an interesting finish as Chiyaan Vikram's 10 Enradhukulla might be released before the end of October.
If you think that's exciting enough, hold on to your horses for according to the latest report, Kamal Haasan's Thoongavanam might be released in the month of November.
What's more, makers of Ajith's Thala 56 are keen to get their movie on the big screen for this year's Diwali which falls on November 11th.
Hence, assuming that the above mentioned movies do not suffer last minute delays, it can be safely said that we are in for more than a treat over the next three months.
Ajith's Thala 56 Release Date: Will It Be A 'Thala Deepavali' This Year?
Here is some good news to all Ajith fans, Thala 56 which is being directed by Siva ofVeeram fame is nearing its completion with just the climax and a couple of songs left to be shot, according to a report by Behindwoods.
Looks like the entire team is determined to infuse the movie onto the silver screen as early as November 2015 as movie buffs would love to see Ajith in action during the festival of lights.
It is said that the shoot is currently going on in the city of Chennai near places like Guindy, AVM studios and a famous mall located at Anna Salai.
The all important climax portion will be shot in the capital city with Shruti Haasan, Lakshmi Menon and Ajith, post which the team will document the remaining songs.
Thala Ajith's introduction song, a breezy duet with Shruti Haasan set at the backdrop of Italy and an emotional number featuring Lakshmi Menon are the three songs that has been shot so far.
With more than 75 percent of the film ready to be screened, Thala 56 might hit the big screen just in time in order to present its viewers with a grand Diwali gift.
Thani Oruvan Movie Review & Rating: Mindgames At Its Best!
Thani Oruvan had its world premiere last night and the movie is releasing today here in India. So what does this psychological thriller has to offer? Continue reading our movie review to know.
Thani Oruvan (U): Book Your Tickets Right Away!
Thani Oruvan Plot:
The movie deals with a basic concept of good vs evil which has been narrated in an unique style. Jayam Ravi plays an upright IPS officer whose priority is to safeguard the serenity of his town.
On the other hand Arvind Swamy has played the baddie who deceives others with his charming looks, subsequently making them fall into his trap.
A game of cat and mouse ensues between Jayam Ravi and Arvind Swamy after the latter's menace reaches an unbearable height. But this battle is more of a psychological clash which makes this film quite interesting.
Performances:
All the lead actors including Mugdha Godse have delivered the goods. Arvind Swamy's body language is something that you may find interesting throughout the film and his dialogue delivery is an added advantage.
Special mention goes to Nayantara, for she deserves it. The talented actress has yet again proved her worth with her subtle and clever expressions.
Supporting cast of Ganesh Venkatraman, Harish Uthaman and Sricharan have played their respective part in an efficient manner while Vamsi Krishna looks way too rigid for one's liking.
Kudos to the director for assembling a near perfect cast with Thambi Ramaiah being the only exception as his role is a slight mismatch in a movie like Thani Oruvan.
Technicalities:
Thani Oruvan is a technically strong film. Intriguing screenplay backed by engaging background score forms a lethal combination. Both first as well as second halves are fresh and manages to keep you hooked.
Ramji's cinematography adds stability and also enhances the overall feel of the film. Colors too have been used brilliantly as the team has managed to give us a feeling that they sure know where to draw the line in order to make the pictures look sleek and truly international.
While Gopikrishna's cuts are sharp enough, he could've perhaps shortened the overall length of the film as 2 hours and 38 minutes is slightly on the longer side for a thriller.
Overall View:
Thani Oruvan is a classified thriller which is new to Tamil cinema. The whole team deserves a pat on their back for pulling off a new age cinema while keeping all the commercial elements intact.

Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani: Govind Seth To Agree, But Will Ranaji Agree To Marry Gayatri?
Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani had Rajmatha proposing Govind Seth for Ranaji (Siddhant Karnick) and his daughter - Gayatri's (Drashti Dhami) marriage in-exchange for redeeming the debt they owe him. The chances of Gopal agreeing to make Gayatri the future queen of Rajkot is quit high but will will Ranaji agree to marry her?
Ranaji has been clear about one thing until now and that is to never remarry and live in the memories of his first wife. Even when their financial situation was compelling him to compromise, he was certain he will not opt to remarry. Why will he agree to marry Gayatri now?
Govind Seth initially refused to accept Rajmatha's offer when she suggests the alliance. But, when Rajmatha elaborates why Gayatri will be the one to benefit most from the marriage, Govind will be left with no confusion regarding his daughter's happiness.
The upcoming episodes of Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani will have Govind pondering a little more over the idea of his daughter living a life marrying a man older than him or living in the palace as the Queen! He will agree for the marriage and following this it will be Rajmatha's turn to make Ranaji agree for a second marriage.

Kick 2 Movie Review: Comfort & Comedy
Kick 2 has all eyes on it since its prequel went on to become a blockbuster and was remade in to all the major languages in India. To know whether Kick 2 lived up to its previous version, check out the review.
Kick 2 (U/A): Book Your Tickets Right Away!
Kick 2 Story:
Kick 2 struggled to maintain the basic essence of its prequel but has taken a different route in the lead character's portrayal. While it's all about Kick in the previous version, now you get to meet a person who put his comfort on the top.
Where did his obsession for comfort take him? What role does Bilaspur village and its people play in his life? Did he stand for his comfort through out? This forms the crux of the story.
Performances:
Ravi Teja gets another tailor made role to play and he delivers a vibrant performance with his unusual timing and amazing screen presence. He has taken the film to a new level with his energies while Brahmanandam completely complemented him in the first half.
Rakul Preet Singh gets a whole new characterization and the long legged lass pulled it off effortlessly. Ravi Kishan though enacted his role perfectly, his terrible lip sync might spoil the things for you if you are a keen observer.
Kick 2 Cast And Crew
Technical Aspects:
Director Surrender Reddy appears to have lost somewhere between the pressure of delivering a different concept like Kick and in dealing the idea of 'comfort'.
Music By S S Thaman stands out and he once again proves his special love for Ravi Teja. Though the placement of couple of songs were bad, songs filled in the extra energy while back ground score increased the tempo.
Editor Gautam Raju should have put his scissors to best use to avoid lengthy comedy episodes. Cinematography by Manoj Paramhamsa, NTR Arts production values and especially DI of the film were absolutely top notch.
Overview:
Tollywood appears to have missed a hat-trick with Kick 2 after blockbusters likeBaahubali and Srimanthudu. But it did not miss its winning streak. Kick 2 comes out as a winner if you are comfortable watching the same old slapstick comedy and emotional drama, with a bit of twist here and there.

Jigina Movie Review And Rating: Good Plot Saves The Day
Jigina starring Vijay Vasanth and newcomer Sanyathara has been released today in many theatres. The film is aimed at delivering a social message, according to its director. Has Jigina managed to accomplish its purpose? What else does the movie has to offer? Continue reading our review to know.
Vanna Jigina (U): Book Your Tickets Right Away!
Jigina Plot:
Vijay Vasanth plays an average looking guy who keeps ruing the fact that he is dark-complexioned and hence develops a strong inferiority complex.
In an attempt to get himself a girlfriend, he creates a fake profile in the social networking site Facebook, with somebody else's photo and an alluring job profile as suggested by a group of IT employees.
The plans works as he is able to woo a good looking girl, played by Sanyathara. But what happens when they finally meet in person? Also, there is another guy who is trying to hunt down Sanyathara. What does he want and what are the consequences of creating a fake profile in Facebook?
All these questions are answered in Jigina which turns out to be a bit preachy and melodramatic. Having said that, director Ravi Nanda Periyasamy's attempt to deliver a message in his film is noteworthy.
Performances:
Vijay Vasanth has delivered a decent performance however, his acting is far from what can be termed as a refined one. New comer Sanyathara's expressions were believable and also alluring at the same time.
When it comes to performances, comedians Singam Puli and Ashvin Raja of Kumki fame walk away with all the accolades.
Technicalities:
While the movie takes its time to settle down in the first half which entertains partially, the second half is aimed at making the film racy and the director has almost managed to achieve what he initially set out to do.
John Peter's BGM fails to support the film throughout. A couple of songs though have come out really well and achieves in making your foot tap. Cinematography is above average as it has contributed to the overall feel of the film.
Overall View:
With a good plot and a strong social message, Jigina is a watchable entertainer.

The numbers achieved by the trailer is no mean feat and the fact that it has accomplished it in such a short period of time is mind-blowing indeed.

OMG! Simbu Spills The Beans On Nayantara And Vignesh Shivan's Love Relationship
The team of Vaalu had organized a well deserved 'success meet' as the Simbu starrer is on its way to a box office success even after attracting mixed reviews. Perhaps, the 3 year delay was a blessing in disguise.
Vaalu (U): Book Your Tickets Right Away!
Simbu was kept busy throughout the event as he was bombarded with many interesting questions. One such question that caught the attention of everyone was pertaining to his ex-lover Nayantara.
No, the question was not about his own relationship with the Vallavan actress but the alleged romantic entanglement between Nayantara and director Vignesh Shivan.
Simbu who is known for his honesty said, "I do not know about their relationship, but if they are in love with each other, I'll be more than happy to organize and carry out their wedding as a well-wisher".
While Silambarasan's relationship with Nayantara is well documented, Vignesh Shivan had directed the Vaalu actor in his 2012 flick Podaa Podi and hence posing such a question to Simbu isn't irrelevant after all.
Another relevant question that popped up at the success meet was about his direction. When asked if he would direct any other actor, Simbu's answer was almost instantaneous, he said he would love to make a film with Thala Ajith and SuperstarRajinikanth.
Thala Ajith's Kind Gesture: A Heart Touching Story Of A Physically Challenged Person
t is a known fact that Thala Ajith often indulges in noble acts by extending his hand of support to those who are in need. While most of his good deeds go unnoticed, some manage to break all barriers to catch the attention of reporters.
One such news reported by a leading Tamil daily talks about the actor's recent help to a differently abled person when he approached Ajith at the sets of Thala 56.
It is said that a person with an inability to walk approached the shooting spot with an intention of meeting Ajith. When he got the opportunity to meet the Mankatha star, he has expressed his anguish of not being able to afford himself a wheelchair.
After listening to him patiently, Ajith has instructed him to return to the same spot the next day at 4:00 PM. When the physically challenged man returned, not surprisingly, a brand new wheelchair was waiting for him.
But to his surprise, Ajith has also handed over an undisclosed amount of money before receiving a tight hug from the person who came seeking help.
WHAT? Vijay 59 Shooting Stopped By Vijay Fans?
Ilayathalapathy Vijay is currently shooting for Vijay 59 which is being directed byAtlee. The young director's team is said to be clocking some as 40 percent of the movie has already been shot.
Going by the current pace at which this movie is progressing, it can be safely said that Vijay 59 has a good chance of making it to theatres as early as next year and that's exactly what each and every Vijay fan would be hoping for.
But recently, the shoot was reportedly halted for several minutes and it is said that none other than Vijay fans were the reason why the shoot was stopped abruptly.
Spading deeper into the matter, we learned that Vijay himself requested for a break as he couldn't keep his fans waiting near the shooting spot who had gathered there to have a chat with their favourite star.
Vijay who spent the next few minutes talking with his fans also went on to click some photos with them before requesting them to go ahead with their respective work, it is said. Now that's a kind gesture from the Kaththi star isn't it?
Stay tuned for more such updates and in the meantime check out the below slides to know about an interesting connection between Kamal Haasan's Thoongavanam and Vijay's dropped project Yohan: Adhyayam Ondru.

LEAKED: 18 Minute Video Of Vijay's Puli, The Entire Team Is In Shock
An eighteen minute video has been leaked on the internet which narrates yet another story of Ilayathalapathy Vijay's Puli, according to a source.
The latest of such stories has been leaked in the form of a video and going by the tale narrated in it, Vijay's girlfriend, played by Nandita Swetha, is killed by some miscreants. Unable to bear the loss, Vijay decides to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff.

Vacation 2015 Movie Review: A Comedy Worth Watching
Vacation, the 2015 American romantic comedy film is here trying to re-do the comic frolics from the 1983's National Lampon's Vacation film.
Vacation (A): Book Your Tickets Right Away!
The fifth theatrical installment from the National Lampoon's Vacation series is loosely inspired by the original 1983 National Lampoon's Vacation film where Rusty Griswold (Ed Helms) is trying to re-live a trip which he did with his parents and sisters 30 years ago.
Trying to nix his family and save his eroding marriage, Rusty decides to take a road trip to Walley World with his wife, Debbie (Christina Applegate), and their two sons; James (Skyler Gisondo) who is a shy and anxious older son, Kevin (Steele Stebbins), the selfish younger son. The journey starts on a fun and irritating way with the family hating the road trip even after Rusty tries hard to cheer them up and keep them entertained.
The Griswolds family takes various stops while on their road trip to the Walley World the first being Memphis. In Arkansas, they got to a supposedly hidden spring by a drifter which turns out to be a sewage dump. Upon their return to the car, they see it broken with their cash and luggage stolen inside the car.With no money and clothes, the family stops by in Texas and enters Rusty's sister, Audrey (Leslie Mann), and her husband, Stone Crandall (Chris Hemsworth).
The family stays at Arizona campsite and the next morning almost gets killed by a suicidal rafting guide (Charlie Day) in the Grand Canyon.
Vacation turns out to be a trauma with a lot of hurdles and complications with losing car, cash, luggage and then tailing down by crazy truck driver (Norman Reedus).
The disappointed Griswolds decide to go fly back home in Chicago after staying at Rusty's parents, Clark (Chevy Chase) and Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo).
Rusty's father Clark coax him and the next morning he decided to drive his family to Walley World to ride their newest coaster, Velociraptor before going to Chicago.
What happens next is a series of drama mixed with comedy and fun-filled rides!
Cast: Ed Helms and Christina Applegate play a funny married couple who try to save their marriage. Chris Hemsworth is one of the major attractions who does not stay long on the screen but his appearance especially the shirtless moment where he actually stuffed his underwear with a giant fake penis for the film is drool-worthy!
Although the vacation turns out to be a disaster, the movie directed and written by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, has a happy ending and doesn't disappoint us when it comes to the comic factor.

First Weekend Box Office Predictions: Vaalu Outshines VSOP!
Simbu's Vaalu and Arya's Vasuvum Saravananum Onna Padichavanga (VSOP) had a worldwide release yesterday (14th August). Now, it is time for us to gauge the first day box office collections of both these movies and also their first weekend collections
While VSOP had a taciturn opening, Vaalu had a huge buzz engulfing it prior to its release which was quite understandable considering the movie's bumpy ride in the last three years.
The movie was also supported well by Simbu fans who were determined to makeVaalu a huge hit. Hence as expected, Vaalu did perform better than VSOP on its first day all over Tamil Nadu, according to trade sources.
However, the Arya-Tamannaah starrer might have a slight advantage over Vaalu in the coming days as it has managed to garner marginally better reviews from fans and critics.
This being the case, trade analysts have indicated that VSOP might do well in A centres while Vaalu might score big in B and C centres, thanks to Simbu's fan base.
But at the end of the day, the box office success of both these movies might depend upon the all important word of mouth, as it is in the case of most of the films if not all.
'Vande Mataram' In London On August 15th: Is This An Appropriate Act By A.R. Rahman?
68 years ago, Indians were hardly allowed to open their mouth while facing an Englishman as India had fallen into the clutches of the British. After all these years, at the 69th Indian Independence Day Anniversary, a proud Indian would not only open his mouth but also make thousands of Britishers dance to his tunes.
Conducting a concert on August 15th at The O2 Arena in London, two time Oscar winning musician AR Rahman will wave his magical wand to cast a spell in an attempt to capture thousands of British people. Unlike them, the Mozart of Madras would only be capturing their hearts.
Though it is a proud moment for each and every Indian, a question might pop up in your head as you read this article; is it appropriate for a patriotic like Rahman to perform in a place like London while our country celebrates its 69th Independence Day?
While a single person cannot decide if this act by India's most famous musician is right or wrong, it is our responsibility as a nation to voice out our opinion.
But before you write down your thoughts in the comment box below, check out the slides underneath to know more about the concert including AR Rahman's popular group of singers who will be performing on August 15th.
