Superstar’s film title to Universal star

It is a common culture to bestow titles to star heroes and that becomes more like a surname to them. Each star hero has got his own title like that and one among them is Kamal Haasan. From a long time, he has been called as the Universal Star in English and Ulaganayagan in Tamil.

Recently, Kamal added one more title to his name as he was officially bestowed with the title of Chevalier de L’Ordre Arts et Lettres (The Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters). Prior to him only the Tamil legend Sivaji Ganesan got this prestigious title.

While that may be so, Kamal’s dear buddy Style Samrat Rajnikanth came up with his own title. He congratulated Kamal on Twitter and mentioned he is this generation’s Nadigar Thilagam. This title was actually given to Sivaji Ganesan. We have to see how many will adopt this new title then.

Manchu Vishnu to romance his lucky Muscat yet gain

Sentiment plays an important role in the film industry and filmmakers have sentiments of many types. Hit pairs and combinations are the outcome of these sentiments.

Coming to the story, Manchu Vishnu roped in Hansika for his upcoming film titled Luckkunnodu. This is a comedy thriller directed by Raaja Kiran (of Geethanjali, Tripura movies fame). Well this is the third film for Vishnu & Hansika and their earlier films Doosukeltha, Pandavulu Pandavulu Thummeda were hits. Hence Hansika is now being dubbed as Vishnu’s latest sentiment. And adding to it, even Hansika hasn’t featured in any Telugu film of late after Raviteja’s Power movie.

Meanwhile, the regular shooting of Luckkunnodu will commence from next month. Hope this ‘H’ (Hansika) setiment helps Vishnu score a consecutive hit after Eedo Rakam Aado Rakam.

As per an ongoing speculation, Nagarjuna apparently asked writer-director Trivikram to develop his super hit ‘Manmadhudu’ character and story line into a full-fledged script for Akhil.

Nithya Menen is one fortunate actress who got the golden chance of playing the lead role in the prestigious biopic of the legendary Mahanati Savitri. Well the industry and fans welcomed this and are happy for the perfect casting.

However according to an interesting speculation doing rounds in the industry circles, mega producer Ashwini Dutt (the producer of Savitri biopic) put some clauses to Nithya Menen. Well he apparently asked her to be punctual to the shoot and never interfere in the shoot and creative decisions during the process of making. At the end, he also made it clear to her that she must attend the promotions of the film, otherwise should face a cut in the remuneration.
