It’s not Amala Paul, a newbie bags it

Amala Paul was initially said to play the female lead in Mugamoodi but now she has opted out of it. Instead of Amala, Pooja Hegde has been signed up. Pooja was adjudged as the runner-up in the Miss Universe – India contest held recently.

She will be making her debut in Mugamoodi opposite Jiiva. Narain will play a negative role in this movie. The film is directed by Mysskin and produced by UTV Motion Pictures. K is scoring the music for Mugamoodi.

The shooting of Mugamoodi will commence from September onwards and the director is planning a teaser trailer in the meantime.

Jiiva's trailer!

Cheran and Prasanna's flick, Muran will be having a September release. It was supposed to have been out for the Independence day weekend but things did not pan out for various reasons. However, it has been confirmed that the film will definitely release next month. The leading men are very excited as they both have roles that are far removed from the ordinary.

In an interesting development, the trailer of Mugamoodi, Mysskin's superhero saga with Jiiva and Narain will be airing at the same time. This has become quite the trend recently with a lot of production houses opting for this particular gimmick as a promotional tactic. And it seems to be working.

Amala Paul not in Mysskin's Mugamoodi

Director Mysskin is currently busy with the pre-production work of Mugamoodi which will have Jiiva in the lead. In this film, Jiiva will play the role of a super hero, which means he is all set to become Tamil cinema's first super hero. Mugamoodi will be the first super hero movie for UTV in Tamil. There were reports that Kollywood's latest sensation Amala Paul would play the female lead but the actress rubbished these reports, saying she is not a part of the film.

Narain, who has earlier worked with Mysskin in the blockbuster Anjathey, will play the villain. Narain and Jiiva will undergo special martial arts training with experts flown in from China. A super hero lies in every one of us; this forms the basic crux of Mugamoodi. It is said that consultants from IIT will create hi-end gadgets for the film and the super hero costumes will be designed by select teams from NIFT. The hunt for the heroine is on.

The film is expected to go on floors in September 2011 and will grace theatres in 2012.

'Mugamoodi' - Tidbits unraveled!

Jiiva is running from pillar to post. The reason - he has signed a number of films, and good ones all that! The actor recently signed for Mysskin's project titled 'Mugamoodi,' the shoot for which will begin in the next couple of months. The pre-production work is going on in full swing and Narain will be seen opposite Jiiva in a negative shade.

The film's storyline deals with a superhero subject - way different from the films that have so far churned out from Mysskin tag. The film, it is suggested, revolves around the belief that there is a superhero within each one which comes out during in a stiff situation. The male leads are believed to be training hard from the Shaolin Temple, China, for getting their mind and body into the martial arts, which is the main ingredient in the film.

There were some reports in a section of media that Mysskin has been impressed with the portfolio of Amala Paul and might rope her in to pair opposite Jiiva in this project, but the actress has rubbished all that revealing she is not a part of this Mysskin venture.

Usually superhero projects have little or no scope of heroines to perform, as the superhero and super villain grab the limelight, in this case it will be Jiiva and Narain who will lap up all credits! But considering the flamboyance of this project the team might be on the look out for a big name for the heroine...

Some sources also suggest that those from IIT will be designing some state-of-the-art gadgets to be used in the film and the costumes and the looks for the characters will be from NIFT (National Institute of Fashion Technology). The film will have a good dose of special effects which will be done by a Los Angeles-based firm. Buzz is around Kollywood that the director is planning to import stunt men from Hong Kong.

It looks like Mysskin is getting the best in the industry to pull this film off. 'Mugamoodi' is touted to release during the summer of 2012 and will pull children and adults to theatres alike!

Jeeva puts on a ‘Mugamoodi’

Kollywood grapevine is abuzz that Jeeva has been roped in to act under Mysskin’s direction in the latter’s key venture, ‘Mugamoodi,’ and for which the hero will be sporting a never-seen-before look.

Jeeva is currently busy with the shoot of ‘Nanban’ and it is said that after finishing this project under Shankar, he will be taking a short break and proceeding with ‘Mugamoodi.’

We had earlier informed you that Mysskin had first approached Suriya for ‘Mugamoodi,’ but it did not work out due to the high budgets, he later approached a few upcoming heroes and then producers didn’t favour him.

Now it looks like, producers have come forward for this as Jeeva has risen to a star status after delivering a blockbuster hit through ‘Ko.’

The movie deals with a superhero who fights away the dark sides of the society and those close to the director vouch that it will be a perfect family entertainer-cum-thriller.

The team will see funding by a leading corporate company in Mumbai, special effects by a Los Angeles company. What more can a Tamil cinema fan ask for?

The filming will start this August, after ‘Nanban’s completion, and will be a 2012-mid release…

We’ll get back to you shortly with more details on the cast and crew of the film.

Mysskin's Manja Selai

By the title I think you know what I'm going to write/talk about. Yes, its about Mysskin's usage of a yellow sari(manja selai) in the item songs in his movies. He has done that since his directional debut. I really want to know why, does he like yellow? or yellow sari's?? Well,the songs are always so catchy :D I never stop listening to them :)


Chithiram Pesuthadi
Cast: Nairen,Bhavana
Year:2006
Song: Vazha Meenu
Item Song performed by: Malavika, Gana Ulaganathan
This was Mysskin's first film as a director, started his yellow journey :D 





Anjathey
Cast: Nairen,Ajmal,Prasanna,Vijayalakshmi
Year: 2008
Song: Kathala Kannala 
Item Song performed by: Snigdha Akolkar
The song became a super hit! :D Snigidha also became popular, and the film was success. :)





Yuddham Sei
Cast: Cheran,Dipa Shah
Year: 2011
Song: Kannitheevu Ponna
Item Song performed by: Neetu Chandra & Director Ameer
The movie just released a day ago, its been getting good reviews, but not as good as Anjathey. This time the 'manja selai' song has been performed by a more popular actress Neetu, Ameer. Its not as catchy as the previous ones, but still catchy. 





I didn't include Nandhala because it didn't have an item song at all. Nandhala was the movie in which Mysskin debuted in as an actor;he also directed it. 


I always get so addicted to the songs cause they are so foot tapping. :D For the first two songs the music director was Sundar C. Babu while for the last one it was some called K. Maybe thats why the last one wasn't so catchy. ? I seem to get so excited when I see the songs on TV :D always watch them in awe. :D If you know why Mysskin uses yellow sari's in his songs, please do tell. :)) Because I don't know, and I have never seen any of his interviews. Though I have read one, but it doesn't say anything about yellow saris. 

Kannitheevu Ponnu...

Yudham Sei is releasing tomorrow :) Saw this song on Kalingar Tv: Kanni Theevu from the movie . Yudham Sei is directed by Mysskin, and you know his signature manja selai(yellow sari) item numbers? This is another one ! :)) This time its a very popular actress Neetu Chandra, with director Ameer dancing to the number :)) Both make a cameo :D Its pretty addicting like Mysskin's previous item numbers. Watch/Listen here: 


Lyrics:
Tha na na na ..... [humming]

 Kannitheevu Ponna, katerumbu kanna, kattu mara thuduppu pola iduppa aattura

ivaa kallu paana udatha kaati kaduppu yethura. - 2

Mathappu pola, sirichittu poonaa, ithappu yellam, midhichittu poonaa.

Indha vappattiya paathu, yen pondattiya maranthen.

Ivaa munthanaiya monthu, naan moppam pudichi nadanthen.

[Kannitheevu ponna]

[Nana nana na...... humming]

Thanga selaiyodu, oru masi karuvadu.

aatam pottu aadu, idhu vaanavillu roadu.

Tharboosu pazhathukke nee, thanee kaatatha.

kadicha kasakaatha sweetu beeda nee.

Kudicha yeepam varum goli soda nee.

Idicha usuru poogum, thannee lorry nee.

Adicha bootha varum, pondicherri nee.

Un sammathatha sonna, yeen sambazhatha tharuveen.

Nee kai nazhuvi poona, naan kannu theeya azhuveen.

[Kannitheevu ponna]

[Thana ne thana ne... humming] < http://www.majamovies.blogspot.com >

vennila cake yen vittukara naakku.

Kollikatta naathu, yeen koppazhama aathu.

Thanjavooru thatta yendhi picha keeketha.

Urutti vizhayadum, daaya katta nee thaan.

Vazhukki vizha vaikkum, vaazha matta nee.

Manakkum malayala kozha puttu nee.

Thirumbi paakatha, thenavettu nee.

Iva kanna kuzhiyodu, vanthu pallanguli aadu.

yenna muthamittu moodu, konjam sathunavu poodu.

[Kannitheevu ponna]
