Here is good news for all Karthi fans! The actor’s upcoming Naan Mahaan Alla will reportedly grace theatres on July 23, 2010.
Naan Mahan Alla, directed by Suseendran of Vennila Kabaddi Kuzhu fame, is expected to showcase the romantic side of Karthi in a script designed by Suseendran and backed by the music of Yuvanshankar Raja. And for the first time in their careers, Tollywood sensation Kajal Aggarwal will team up with Karthi in this film. Durai Dhayanidhi’s Cloud Nine Movies has acquired the release rights of this film.
“After three hits I wanted to be careful about my next, till I listened to Suseendran’s script, which had an inspiring protagonist. That’s how Naan Mahaan Alla (NMA) happened,” Karthi said at the recent press meet.
“I play Jeeva, an unassuming, middle-class city boy who sees life from a positive perspective. It’s a lively character. The core of the story is about how a certain incident drags him into committing a crime. There are hardly any dialogues in the second half, where music and emotions dominate. It’s a bit like Suseendran’s earlier hit, Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu.” he added.
“The movie belongs to Karthi. In contrast to his suave, stylish look in Paiyaa, here he plays a local Chennai boy. Karthi adapted himself beautifully to the new character in every possible way, whether it was body language, looks or diction. The combo of Yuvan and Karthi has always worked wonders at the box office and this project is no exception. Yuvan’s music is a big plus,” director Suseendran said.
Reportedly, the film will be dubbed and released in Telugu simultaneously. The film is produced by Gnanavel Raja and Madhie handles the camera.
