Muran Movie Review-Expect the Unexpected

Muran stars Cheran,Prasanna,Hari Priya,Nikitha,and Suma B.,Neelima Rani in the lead roles. Its directed and written by debutant Rajjan Madhav.Music is by Sajjan Madhav and cinematography by Padmesh; and editing is by Arun Durairaj.

Story: Nanda's(Cheran) car gets stuck on the road after a conflict with these random people. So Nanda needs a lift, here comes Arjun(Prasanna). Arjun gives Nanda a lift and as the ride goes on; both of them share their stories. After a bit, Prasanna drops the "bomb", except the unexpected.

Performances: Prasanna is back with a bang! His role is on the lines of Anjanthe but not that cruel. He has lost alot of weight and looks super cool, kudos to the stylist. Cheran,its hard to answer: Is he a better director or an actor? He does both, so well. Hari Priya, this is my first movie of hers I have seen,an she's a pretty good actress, but the voice didn't suit her character. Nikitha was a surprise, she has kind of disappeared all these years,and shes back; her acting isn't bad either. Suma B. is another surprise, she needs to work on her acting skills. Jayaprakash is also good in what he has. Neelima Rani is always awesome,no matter what film.

Direction:Muran is directed by debutante Rajjan Madhav, and he truly seems promising from his first film. Though the film is based on Strangers on a Train, Rajjan seems to have his own style. He doesn't waste time in doing un-needed scenes. He's definitely a director to watch out for.

Cinematography and Editing: Camera work by Padmesh plays a big role in the thrill factor of this film. Especially towards the end and in the beginning.Arun Durairaj the editor does a clean job in the editing section.

Music: Sajjan Madhav is the brother of Rajjan,the director,handles the music.Music is not bad at all, goes along with the story.

All you Tamil movie buffs, WATCH IT WATCH IT WATCH IT GOOOOO. You really don't want to miss it! Once Again, when you go, Expect the Unexpected.

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.

Cheran screens 'Yudham Sei' for Facebook friends

Cheran always thinks and does things differently. One such thing was witnessed on Sunday. Cheran as a unique gesture organised a special show of his recent film 'Yudham Si' at a popular multiplex in Chennai. He had called all his Facebook friends living in Chennai to see the film. The crowd was well assorted from doctors to software engineers to writers to ordinary people. After the show a box was kept outside the hall and the friends were requested to donate whatever they could. Later the contributions were sent to a children hospital in the city. Nice gesture, isn’t it? Source:http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/tamil/article/63799.html

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]

Happy days for Haripriya

Haripriya, who made her Kollywood debut with ‘Kanakavel Kaakka’, the Karan starrer, is going great guns. She is currently busy with two promising projects, with both having prominent faces in the cast and crew.

One of her films which will hit the screens soon is ‘Vallakottai’, in which she is acting alongside Arjun. Directed by A Venkatesh, the movie is a hardcore masala entertainer with enough ingredients to woo the masses.

Her other film is ‘Muran’, which has Cheran and Prasanna in the lead. Directed by Rajan Madhav, son of late Malayalam music composer M Raveendran, the movie would revolve between people whose characters are totally different from each other.

Says Haripriya, “Arjun and Venkatesh are very cooperative on the sets of ‘Vallakottai’. It was a pleasant surprise for me when I was offered a role in ‘Muran’ since the film has Cheran in the lead. I am happy with the way my career is shaping up.”
