On
the day of Asal’s release, we
have more definitive information about
the 50th film of Ajith Kumar. As reported
earlier, the milestone movie will
be directed by Gautham Menon, who
is at present busy with the final
round work of Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa.
With VTV set to release this month,
both Gautham and Ajith are expected
to be free of all commitments to start
work together. The scripting part
of the flick is still in progress.
It is being said that Gautham has
taken the basic plot of the film from
a sensational criminal case in 1980
and that Ajith will be playing an
investigating officer. Whether it
is regular cop role or something more
sophisticated along the lines of CBI
or even Sherlock Holmes is open to
speculation. Anyway, it will surely
be the first time in his career that
Ajith will don a full fledged detective
role and that itself will give all
his fans a lot to look forward to
from this movie. With so much decided,
one would have expected the film to
have been christened by now. But that
is not the case. Gautham is yet to
decide on a title.
Another high point of the movie will
be its music, which will be scored
once again by A.R. Rahman. The Gautham-Rahman
team has already proved its worth
in glowing terms with the VTV album
that is taking the charts by storm.
The film is expected to go on floors
by April. |
