Rowthiram

'Rowthiram Pazhagu' is a popular line from Mahakavi Bharathi, who urged youngsters of those days to practice anger. And revolutionists say anger not just stops bad things, but also make good things to happen.

Apparently inspired by these thoughts, debutant director Gokul has made 'Rowthiram', with Jiiva and Shriya Saran playing the lead roles. After a long gap, this Jiiva-starrer is produced by his home banner Super Good Films, led by his father and ace producer R B Choudary.

If sources are to be believed, 'Rowthiram' features Jiiva in the role of an angry youngster, who questions the system and the uncovered holes in it. Shriya is his supportive lover who also happens to be a law student.

Says Jiiva, whose career graph has touched new heights post the success of 'Ko', "The important reason behind many atrocities in the society is lack of anger among public. People become mute spectators for violent incidents. The film tries to find a solution to it."

'Rowthiram' will be Shriya's Tamil release after a long gap. Sources say her role in the film is so crucial that it comes with suspense. "It will be an important movie in Shriya's career. She is eagerly looking forward for the release," they say.

Cinematography for 'Rowthiram' is by Shanmugasundaram and music is by newcomer Prakash Nikki. Prakashraj and Jayaprakash are playing pivotal roles in this film, which is to be released worldwide by Telesat Media Matrix Pvt Ltd.

"It is has been interesting shooting for the movie. I won't call it a different movie, but it is indeed interesting. It is being made by our home banner and I am happy the way it has shaped up," Jiiva says further. Popular Bollywood choreographer Ganesh Acharya plays an important role in 'Rowthiram'.

Super Good Films has introduced more than 50 filmmakers to Tamil cinema and Gokul is the latest addition. The young director says, "As the title suggests, the movie is about an angry youth, who fights evils in the society."

"Jiiva is a great performer and he is a director's actor. He was ready to go to any extent to get his act right. I am very happy to make my debut with Super Good Films that too with Jiiva in the lead role," concludes Gokul.
