Surya to act with Aamir Khan?
Surya has established a place for himself in Kollywood, thanks to the variety of roles that he had done in every film of his. The likes of Nandha, Khaakha Khaakha, Peralagan and the under production Mayavi have portrayed Surya as an actor with
difference.
A happy and enthusiastic Surya says, "I want to be remembered by people in years to come as an actor who can perform any role with ease. Even today movies like Kattabomman stay fresh in our mind. I want my roles to be remembered in such a way. Hence, I am choosy about my movies."
Meanwhile, there are reports Surya is being talked about for a role with Aamir Khan in Hindi.
Surya confirms this but says things are still at a very early state of negotiation. "I don't want to miss out on the opportunity," he hastens to add.
However, Aamir khan now is busy with his The Rising that needs time to be completed.
Till then, Surya's attention have to be on Mayavi and Gajini only.
Pooja Toils hard for 'Thambi
Pooja is said to be working hard for 'Thambi'
If anybody try to understand this statement based on the literal meaning of the word 'Thambi' (In Tamil) please change your opinion. This 'Thambi' is the name of the film in which Pooja acts.
This film is produced by CT Productions and directed by Seeman. Madhavan is the hero of this film. Pooja is the lead pair. In this film there is a scene in which Pooja is to act in a Bharathanatyam dance sequence. This scene is rather lengthy in the film.
Pooja knows next to nothing about Bharathanatyam. So the director suggested that she just follow the instructions of Dance master and that was enough.
But Pooja would have none of it. She doesn't want to do something new, which she knows to nothing about. So she started learning the classical Dance. The same dance Master, who is teaching Bharathanatyam to Uma, is also teaching Pooja. She is practicing the said dance regularly.
It is indeed a good policy to indulge anything only after knowing about it. But it is for her own good she takes a 'LIC Mediclaim Policy', which would be help full if she should break her limbs in the process of learning the Classical Dance

Danush’s dream fumbles
Danush had become slightly nervous ever since his father’s film ‘Dream’s crashed at the box office. But, the performance of his recent film has worsened his nightmare.
Danush is still not quiet out of his honeymoon days with wife Aishwarya, who also happens to be the daughter of Tamil superstar Rajinikanth. After his marriage, industry observers were more than just keen to see if his illustrious father-in-law would come forward and help him. But, the father-in-law himself is working desperately to keep his reputation at the box office intact.
Things aren’t well with Danush either. Almost all his recent films have flopped miserably. The latest one on the list is ‘Devathaiyai Kandaen’, which was under production for a long time.
