'Billa 2' Movie Release Date Postponed to June 29 or July 6

The release date of Ajith Kumar's upcoming much hyped movie Billa-2 under the direction of Chakri Toleti is postponed once again. The movie, which was supposed to release on June 22,2012. But now the release date is pushed to June 29, 2012 or July 6,2012.

As per the buzz, the major reason to push the date is to avoid a clash with Karthi's Saguni, which is hitting screens on June 22. Even though Billa 2 is made with a big budget than Saguni, film makers believed that the two big releases on the same week would eat each other's business.

Hence, they have postponed the film. Billa 2 has been censored and has got 'A' certificate. Billa 2 is a gangster film where as 'Saguni' is political thriller.

Billa 2 is also releasing simultaneously in Telugu as 'David Billa'. Parvathy Omanakuttan, former Miss India 2008 is playing the leading lady role. Meenakshi Dixit will be seen in an important girl, Burana Abdulla dances for an item song and Vidyut Jamwal plays the villain role in the movie. Rahman and Prabhu will be seen in other important roles. Yuvan Shankar Raja composed music for the movie.

Billa 2 gets “A” Certificate from the Regional Censor Board

Billa 2 officially got ‘A’ certificate and will be announced after certification paper is given by censors in a day or two.
Billa 2 producers have guts to go for ‘A’ certificate instead of agreeing for too many cuts & going for “U” certificate just 4 tax exemption! Way 2 go forward!
As it just got censored and discussions going on whether they will revise the certificate with Certain cuts.
The Regional Censor board appreciated the stylish making of Billa.
The release date also will be let known tomorrow by Aascar Ravichandran.
Stay tuned for Further Updates….

Engeyum Eppothum Movie Review

 Engeyum Eppothum Movie Review Jai Anjali Engeyum Eppothum Movie Story

 

Movie: Engeyum Eppothum
Star Cast: Jai, Anjali, Shravanand, Ananya
Direction: Saravanan
Production: A.R Murugadoss, Fox Star Studios

Bouquet to debutant filmmaker Saravanan for etching out a film that speaks about feelings of people and the value of every single life. With handful of characters, the director has come out with a flick that is filled with fun, joy, tears and other human emotions.

What begins as a journey in a bus takes twists and turns, and when we think all is well that ends well, a shocking incident happens. But hold on! There is no preachy stuff as Saravanan manages to lace the message with lighter moments in the film.

Engeyum Eppothum Review

For many of us road mishaps mean just numbers - the number of people perished in such accidents. Rarely we get to see the colourful life the victims enjoyed without knowing that death is coming close to them.

'Engeyum Eppothum' attempts to take a closer look at such people. In a nutshell, it is the story of two couples who end up romancing in contrasting manner. They happen to meet at one point where a tragedy strikes in their lives.

Engeyum Eppothum Review

Coming to the story, two buses coming on opposite direction crash at each other on the National Highway in Villupuram. Tragic scenes follow. Meanwhile, a flashback unfolds and the life of a  lover couple is narrated.

Amudha (Ananya), an engineering passout comes to Chennai from a village in Tiruchy for an interview. Situation leads her to take the help of a stranger Goutham (Sarva) to locate the company. Initially she is reluctant, but slowly gets acquanited and starts admiring him.

Meanwhile, there is another romance in the form of Kadhiresan (Jai) and  Manimegalai (Anjali). A soft-spoken good-hearted Kadhiresan falls for a young nurse Manimegalai, who is out-spoken and lives life her own way.

Engeyum Eppothum Review

After completing the interview, Amudha returns to Tiruchy but her thoughts revolve around Goutham. Goutham too wants to see her and express his love.  Amudha comes to Chennai in search of her lover. At the same time, Goutham decides to go to Tiruchy to hold the hands of Amudha.

Meanwhile, Kadhiresan and Manimekalai get along well and after a series of interesting events in their romance, they decide to go to a village near Tiruchy to meet Kadhiresan's parents. Gautam, Kadhiresan and Manimekalai boards a bus to Tiruchy, while Amudha takes a bus from Tiruchy to Chennai. Near Villupuram, the buses collide. What happens then forms the climax.

Sarva as a suave city youth fits the bill well. His cool and casual expressions are adequate for the role. Ananya as an innocent bubbly rustic girl who comes to city is impressive. Anjali as a out-spoken and straightforward girl in love with Jai is tailor-made for the character.

Engeyum Eppothum Review

Watch out for Jai. He as an innocent youth is the scene-stealer. He does his best in the role. The actor manages to leave an impression with his performance.
All the characters are well-written and neatly conceived by the director. They resemble close to real-life. The narration keeps one engaged all through. The contrasting love, loss, gain and sorrow are beautifully portrayed.

R Velraj's cinematography and catchy background score of debutant Sathya add solidity to the proceedings. All said, 'Engeyum Eppothum' is a whiff of fresh air in Tamil cinema. Saravanan has certainly made his mentor A.R Murugadoss, who has produced this film along with Fox Star Studios,  proud.

Romance, razmatazz

 

It’s A R Murugadoss's maiden production venture. Fox StarStudios ventures to co-produce the same.

Check out the Tamil movie review – Engeyum Eppothum Movie Review.

Story

It is about two lover couples, their desire to get united inlife. But what happens if a tragic incident plays spoilsport in theirlives. A road accident involving two buses at a National Highway inVillupuram occurs. Meanwhile, a flashback unfolds and the romancebetween Goutham (Sharwanand) and Amudha (Ananya) and  Kadhiresan (Jai) and  Manimegalai (Anjali) is narrated.

A soft-spoken good-hearted Kadhiresan falls for a youngnurse Manimegalai, who is opposite to his nature. She isout-spoken and practical in life. Amudha gets attracted to Goutham, whohelps her in Chennai when is stranded in a bus stand unable to know whereto go when she lands from Tiruchy for an interview.

Kadhiresan and Manimekalai take a bus to go to go to theirhometown, while Goutham also boards the same to see Amudha and openhis heart.

At the same time, Amudha takes the bus in the opposite tocome and meet Goutham. What the buses collide is what the film is allabout. 

Performance

It is a tailor-made role for Sharwanand. The suave andstylish looks come handy for his character. Equally impressive as a chirpyinnocent girl is Ananya. She continues from where she left in Nadodigal.Anjali as an out-spoken girl, who takes every step in her life withcaution is equally impressive. She seems to be enjoying the good run inthe industry, doing varied roles so early in her career. Thereal scene-stealer is Jai. As innocent young man in love withAnjali, he is impressive. He brings out the innocence in his charactervery well.

There are a host of new faces in the film who bringfreshness to the script.

 

Technicalities

If debutant filmmaker Saravanan is the captain of the ship,he has been ably supported by cinematographer velraj. He captures the contrasting lives in Chennai and rural areas well. Themishap scenes and thereafter are well shot by him. Equally supportive isSathya with his musical score. Not just the songs, but also thebackground score adds pep to the whole proceedings. Kishore's editing iscrisp and it makes the whole fare racy and riveting.

Analysis

All the characters are well-written. The narration keeps oneengaged all through. One gets a feeling of travelling in the bus asthe film progresses. The film is a mix of feel-good moments and atthe same time emotional moments. Three cheers to Saravanan for makinga crisp talked that is racy and riveting and at the same timecarrying a strong message.
