‘Mangaatha’ becomes ‘Mankatha’

It seems that everything related to ‘Mangaatha’ is associated with numbers. For, Ajith’s 50th film, which is named after the probability game, has undergone a slight spelling change thanks to numerology.

The film directed by Venkat Prabhu, which was spelled as ‘Mangaatha’ earlier, will now be known as ‘Mankatha’. “The change has been made after consulting a numerologist,” says the filmmaker.

Unable to control his excitement that he is directing the Thala’s 50th film, Venkat Prabhu says, “I know Ajith very well right from the days I acted with him in ‘Ji’. He would watch all my films and give an honest feedback.”

“But directing his 50th film is a dream come true,” the director says and adds: “Like the game ‘Mangaatha’, the movie too is a simple game of probability. In addition, it would also have fun, friendship, action and romance.”
