- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,July 11 2009]
Tamil Film Industry is going to witness a mega event in coming days.
Actor-Producer-Director Thygarajan is bringing up his next project which is based on a well-known novel, Kalaignarin ÂPonnar SankarÂ, written by our Honorable Chief Minister of Dr. Kalaignar Karunanidhi. The movie titled, ÂPonnar SankarÂ, is said to be a double hero epic movie and Actor Prashanth is will don two characters, after his last double role in ÂJeansÂ.
The movie is going to be launched on 12th July 2009 at Valluvar Kottam on a large scale where the Chief Minister will be invited to grace the occasion. The event will be specially designed with grand historical backgrounds and for the very first time a massive ancient township set with its own temple, lake and palaces have been created inside Valluvar Kottam for this movie.
It is said that a movie on this massive scale has not been attempted in the last 40 years, and the launch of this movie would see the cream de la crème of Chennai stars and denizens arrive to experience the grandeur.
The first shooting schedule will include a huge star cast such as HonÂble Central Minister Mr. Napoleon, Sathyaraj, Rajkiran,Vijayakumar, Vadivelu, Kushboo, Seetha, Manorama and others. About 5000 junior artists and 1000 artists from the Chennai Sangamam, where real artists with knowledge of South Indian traditional arts are being employed in this film shooting. Around 150 horses, elephants & peacocks, have also been brought to give an authentic feel of an ancient south India.
ÂPonnar Sankar is a legendary story of two warrior brothers who lived many centuries ago, whose princely story has been recounted through the countless folk ballads and the brothers are known for their bravery, strength of character and valor.
Looks like a movie that is really worth to be anticipated.
