Madhavan’s ‘Guru En Aalu’ is finally hitting the screens this week. Directed by remake-expert Selvah, the film is an adaptation of the Hindi hit ‘Yes Boss’, which had Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla.

Madhavan and Mamta Mohandas play the lead in this film in which Abbas plays Madhavan’s boss. Vivek is playing an important role in this film too; in fact, he even has a few scenes in which he plays a proper woman.

The movie is a hilarious comedy based on the 1997 Bollywood flick, and as been in the making for about a year now. It was originally supposed to hit screens late last year, but the film’s release has been delayed for various reasons, and this Friday, it will take on biggie ‘Mariyadhai’ apart form ‘Kunguma Poovum Konjum Puravum’.

This movie is important to Madhavan, to stabilize his position in Kollywood, after the positive reviews that ‘Yaavarum Nalam’ has fetched him. In fact, ‘Yaavarum Nalam’ and Guru En Aalu see Madhavan playing such contrasting roles that they will showcase Madhavan’s ability to play varied roles. Music for the film is by Srikanth Deva.

Jayavel Murugan, a leading distributor in USA, says "I’m happy that the film is getting released now. It’s coming immediately after ‘Yaavarum Nalam’, which makes it all the more significant for Madhavan’s career in Tamil.”
