Sun Pictures organized an ‘Isai Vizha’
for Prabhu Deva’s Engeyum Kadhal and it was
a smash hit. Prabhu Deva, Jayam Ravi, Harris Jayaraj,
Hansika Motwani, Nirav Shah, Naresh Iyer, Chinmayee,
Harish Raghavendra, Haricharan, and Mahathi were
among those present. All the songs were performed
on stage and were greatly enjoyed by all present.
Prabhu Deva, looking cool in a crisp white shirt,
said that the movie would not have been possible
without Harris Jayaraj as music is an essential
component of Engeyum Kadhal which has eight songs.
In fact, the climax itself is going to be a song,
shot uniquely. The terrific composer claims Prabhu
Deva is the USP of his film. He also commended Jayam
Ravi for the amount of effort he put in and said
he was lucky to have worked with him. The director
also thanked Kalpathi S Aghoram and Sun Pictures
for their unstinting support.
Harris Jayaraj was the star of the evening as his
music was in the spotlight. He said that Prabhu
Deva narrated the story to him in ten minutes and
concluded by saying that the songs would comprise
the rest of the film. It was a burden he was happy
to bear. Harris Jayaraj said that Engeyum Kadhal
has come out very well and people will think that
a Hollywood director has made this film.
Jayam Ravi in his speech conveyed his gratitude
to Prabhu Deva and Harris Jayaraj and said that
Engeyum Kadhal was a great opportunity for him.
As a child, he grew up admiring Prabhu Deva’s
dance and acting and said it was a dream come true
to work under his guidance. He was full of praise
for Harris Jayaraj and predicted that people will
be listening to the music of Engeyum Kadhal everyday
for the next twenty years as it was simply too good.
It is easy to see why Hansika is the hottest flavor
of the season – she is cute and charming.
The up and coming actress said that she was happy
to have worked with Prabhu deva, Harris Jayaraj,
and Jayam Ravi and it had been a fun experience.
Prabhu Deva, Jayam Ravi and Hansika delighted the
onlookers by grooving to some of the songs. Harris
Jayaraj surprised everyone by shaking a leg as well
and everyone gave him a huge round of applause.
The music was well received as the album has great
balance and some truly amazing songs. Nangai was
everybody’s favorite track and it is sure
to be a chartbuster.
Engeyum Kadhal is a romantic musical. Prabhu Deva
brings his typical deft touches to this project.
Jayam Ravi has lost weight for this role and spruced
up his image as in a refreshing twist the heroine
will be chasing him. Cinematography is by Nirav
Shah and the film has been shot in some beautiful
locations in France, Greece and New Zealand. It
is a youthful, fresh film and promises to be a treat
to watch.
