Vijay's GILLI

Vijay's GILLI is the remake of the Telugu smash Hit OKKADU, which had Mahesh Babu and Bhoomika. The Tamil film is produced by A M Ratnam and directed by Dharani. But who is the Music Director. Is it Vidhyasagar, because the directer is Dharani or is it Mani Sharma, because he composed the Telugu original. Will it have the same tunes from Telugu, because they were super hits??

  Mr.Tns,
  If you think AE is going to be bad the autograph is worst, its again a one man story, where he $hitted, shaved, p^ssed, how he kissed, where he vommited, where he had drinks, how he got a job finally how he married..... not so great.
  Nothing new too!

  Autograph - nothing but hype.

  TNS,
  ummmm.....the story isnt even out nor is the movie.3 independent yet dependent characters that come together on a bridge and their lives change is all we have for AE.

  I think it is going to be really tough to break the box office hit of autograph by any film in the near future. Sure it has its own flaws but hero fails at the feet of villain and he moves on with his life is something different. I don't think mani has this much brain to come up something like autograph. Mani lives on only with hype and technical aspects. Yes, his packaging is neat but not the inside stuff. AE will bomb at the box office just like KM. Just watch!

  BR is the villain-politician and all three will turn against him is the story. I think BR comes as a dravidian party leader with his kara kara kural.

  Nattamai,
  Autograph is a good effort no doubt but i felt Mouna ragam was more sensitive, portraying the finer emotions.
  Hype works only when you have stuff, Ajith and Simbu are hyping themselves artificially but does anyone care?
  And, KM got 6 national awards, lets see How many Autograph gets this year :)

  Nattamai,
  Autograph is a small budget film made on 1.8 crores so it made very good profits.
  Remember they didn't want to get this out at the same time of Virumandi.
  Autograph is a personal life history of a man, any guy will only go on with the life, infact it is shown in mouna ragam too that life goes on 15 years back.
  Nobody has even come close to MR in portraying love realistically.
  Alaipayuthe, mouna ragam, bombay, roja showed realistic couples. Also Anjali.
  I am sorry only a guy on drugs will compare MR to Cheran and will say Cheran is better.

  Digression:
  
  Jacky:
  
  --Autograph is a good effort no doubt but i felt Mouna ragam was more sensitive, portraying the finer emotions.
  
  I agree with you on Mouna ragam. But I feel, that mani is gone long time back. His films look more artificial now. It all started from Nayagan. The natural feeling is definitely missing in his films.
  
  --Hype works only when you have stuff,
  
  Exactly, autograph is an example. Thiru says that autograph is nothing new and just a hyped up movie. I disagree with that. Certainly Mani has given a few good movies but he has his share of failures too. That proves that hype does not work.
  
  --And, KM got 6 national awards, lets see How many Autograph gets this year :)
  
  Give options to the directors to see which one they select, awards or box office hits. Every director will opt for hits including mani. A true padaippali likes many people enjoy his creations. Autograph liked by millions of people, I don't think Cheran will be disappointed if he does not get any awards. KM bombed at the box office, Mani would be disappointed for sure :)
  
  Thiru:
  
  --Autograph is a small budget film made on 1.8 crores so it made very good profits.
  Remember they didn't want to get this out at the same time of Virumandi.
  
  My point was about the whole collection, not profit ratio. In 30+ days, the movie was seen by 1 crore people. Even if you put Rs. 15 per head, it would have made 15 crores. I am sure the actual figures must be very high. I don't think Cheran delayed releasing the movie. The real story is nobody was willing to buy the movie, and he released himself inspite huge financial problems. Now it is running like anything and distributors have bought it.
  
  Even if you make big budget films with good narration and story, if it is seen by 1 crore people in 30 days, you will make good profits.
  
  
  --Autograph is a personal life history of a man, any guy will only go on with the life, infact it is shown in mouna ragam too that life goes on 15 years back.
  
  I did not compare autograph with any mani's movies. All I said was there is something different from regular movies. Recently I watched Mahendran's kai kodukkum kai, Rajni moves on with his life in the movie too. So it is obvious that it is not done for the first time in tf.
  
  --Nobody has even come close to MR in portraying love realistically.
  Alaipayuthe, mouna ragam, bombay, roja showed realistic couples. Also Anjali.
  I am sorry only a guy on drugs will compare MR to Cheran and will say Cheran is better.
  
  I am not comparing Cheran with Mani. Both are different in their approaches. I am not a fan of Cheran either. But in this attempt, he genuinely tried something different. If you give the same story to Mani, I am sure he will fail because of his current movie making style. That was my point.

  money isnt everything and i don't think ALL directors are worried abt their films beings hits.a very good example of that is MF Hussein who instead of pulling out one song from his movie pulled the whole movie.if mani was worried abt hits i don't think he'd make sum of the movies he does.

  Nattamai,
  Success of Autograph has something to do with Manvasanai - Nativity, 75 kilometers outside chennai every single town is a village.
  And there are only a few cities in TN like madurai, trichy, coimbatore.
  If you look into demograhics then you know Autograph portrayed real life which must have been close to the hearts of people, it ran.
  Credit goes to cheran for making such a movie, the thing is Some channels are hyping it as a great movie, i feel this is a good movie but not a great movie.
  MR has never tried a village subject so i can't comment about MR's ability to make a movie like Autograph, similarly Cheran can't make movies like MR.

  When it comes to Love story the leader is Bharthiraja not MR or anyone else. Please keep in mind he taught every single director how to come out of AVM, Vahini studios and make movies is outdoor only with the greatest impact. He is a trend setter. MR did not set any such trends. Nor did Cheran.

  BR was good but he is a limited player.
  he can take movies only about village subjects.
  his attempt to make a movie different reasulted in kodi parakuthu which was a super flop.
  
  While MR has taken love subjects, dada, husband wife problems, terrorism, national integrity etc.
  MR gets better tunes extracted than br.
  Noway in total comparison BR comes even close to MR.
