Can expect 7aam Arivu soon

May 10, 2011

Expectations are running high as 7aam Arivu stars Suriya and it is directed by AR Murugadoss. The film’s shooting is almost over, said its producer Udayanidhi Stalin of Red Giant Movies. He added that the patchwork is going on at the moment and the release date will be announced soon. 7aam Arivu has Shruti Haasan making her acting debut in Kollywood, which again has created a lot of expectations. Further, Johnny Tri Nguyen, a Hollywood actor, plays the baddie. Harris Jayaraj has scored the music exceptionally well for this film, say insiders. In 7aam Arivu, Suriya is said to appear in two get-ups which will definitely have the audience fascinated, sources report.

Suriya is a monk

One of the roles Suriya playing in ‘7am Arivu’ is that of a Buddhist Monk. The other two characters are a scientist and a circus artist. The film will create ripples once it hits the screens.

These are the latest three things we hear about the multicrore-multilingual venture, directed by A R Murugadoss and produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin’s Red Giant Movies.

“The movie, with enough evidence, will reveal some secrets about the origination of Kung Fu and other martial arts. It will also talk about ancient relationship between India and China,” say sources.

With Shruthi Haasan playing the heroine, ‘7am Arivu’ is said to be a scintillating thriller which will travel between the present era and Pallava period. “Suriya has given his heart and soul to the film,” sources add

While we have seen many a time when real life is imitated in art, i.e cinema, on the sets of Vipul Shah's next film directed by Nishikanth Kamat, Force, a fake wedding between the lead actors John Abraham and Genelia D'Souza almost made them real life husband and wife, thanks to a very sincere yet confused priest.

As per the original Tamil film Kaakha Kaakha, which starred the now real life couple Suriya Sivakumar and Jyothika, a wedding sequence was shot at an old temple in Malshej Ghat. The priest set to do the sequence unfortunately had some difficulty understanding that it was a fake wedding. "It was a multi-camera set-up and so we needed to have minimum shots. However whenever Nishikant Kamath would say cut, the pandit would not stop. Finally after the sixth phera someone from the unit realized that the mantras were real and if not stopped John and Genelia would be actually married. So, they were stopped before the final round." sources told the Mumbai Mirror. John and Genelia were completely oblivious to the proceedings and when they were told, they couldn't contain their laughter.
