Kacheri Aarambam
For Jeeva, `Thenavattu' has perhaps showed the commercial route after trying hands in off-beat films like `Ram' and `Kattradhu Thamizh'. Next from the actor's den is `Kacheri Aarambam', directed by a newcomer Thiraivannan.
Produced by R B Choudary for Super Good Films, the movie features Poonam Bajwa opposite Jeeva again. The two had acted together in `Thenavattu' before. "I had not recommended Poonam for the role. She was the director's choice," says Jeeva. Thiraivannan had worked with Boopathy Pandian, Seeman and Selvabharathy before. Says the director, "it is a typical commercial entertainer. It is hilarious and there are enough action sequences too".
On choosing Jeeva, Thiraivannan says, 'he is one of the young brigade of actors, who proved that he can excel in any kind of role. A complex character in `Kattradhu Thamizh' was handled well by him, while in `Thenavattu', he did with ease the role of a happy-go-lucky youngster."
"Jeeva and Poonam Bajwa shared wonderful onscreen chemistry in `Thenavattu'. I felt there was nothing wrong in repeating the winning combination," says Thiraivannan, justifying Jeeva's statement.
Heaping laurels on producer Choudary, the director says, "he is encouraging and has the knack of tapping the right talent. He has introduced many film-makers to the industry and many of them have gone on to become legends. I am happy and privileged to associate myself with Super Good Films".
Imman is scoring the music. "It is a commercial entertainer and I was inspired to come up with racy tunes once I heard the script," says the music composer. Jeeva, on his part, expresses confidence that `Kacheri Aarambam' will go on to become a hit."
