Director Brinda Reveals Why She Picked 'Hey Sinamika' Title For Dulqeer Salmaan's Film

Chennai, February 15 - National Award-winning South Indian choreographer, Brinda, who is making her directorial debut with upcoming Tamil romantic-comedy, "Hey Sinamika", has revealed why she picked this title for her directorial debut. ## "Hey Sinamika", starring Dulquer Salmaan, Kajal Aggarwal, and Aditi Rao Hydari in the lead roles, is scheduled to release in theaters on March 3. Brinda, who considers filmmaker Mani Ratnam her guru, had choreographed a song titled 'Aye Sinamika' for his film 'OK Kanmani'.## Fortunately, the director says that by a strange stroke of coincidence, the word 'Sinamika' also means 'angry girls', and that fits perfectly with the film's plotline. Without any second thoughts, director Brinda decided that this was going to be her film's title and locked it.## Elaborating further, she says, "I choreographed one of Mani sir's songs 'Aye Sinamika' in the past and that too featured Dulquer. I really liked the title and when I told Mani, sir, about it, he laughingly said, 'So, now you are taking the title from one of my films?' You could say it's my tribute to him".## "Hey Sinamika" is produced by Jio Studios, Global One Studios, and Viacom18 Studios, and it will be released in Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam languages. The trailer of the movie will be released on February 16. Stay tuned...

Siva Kartikeyan's 'Don' Set To Be Postponed From March 25 Because Of THIS Reason?

Chennai, February 1 - The release date announcement of SS Rajamouli's mega-budget period action drama film "RRR" has once again created chaos among the other filmmakers. A couple of days ago, makers announced that "RRR" would be released either on March 18 or April 29, based on the covid situation in the country. ## Assuming that "RRR" will be released on either of the given dates, Tamil star Siva Kartikeyan's "Don" was announced for March 25 release. However, by surprising one and all, "RRR" makers, a few hours after the "Don" release date announcement, also finalized March 25 release worldwide in multiple languages including Tamil.## Since Lyca Productions is the distributor of "RRR" in Tamil Nadu and also producing Siva Kartikeyan's "Don", the decision of postponing the Tamil movie is looking inevitable. The movie would have still gone with March 25 date had "RRR" stuck to March 18. However, with the change in plans of Pan-India, "Don" will have to find a new release date, for which the announcement will be made soon. ## "Don", which is directed by Cibi Chakaravarthi, is one of the most-awaited Tamil movies. The expectation from this movie is high after the blockbuster success of Siva Kartikeyan's last movie "Doctor", which became the actor's first Rs. 100 crore worldwide grosser. ## Produced by Allirajah Subaskaran of Lyca Productions in association with the Sivakarthikeyan Productions banner, "Don" is a romantic comedy that also stars Priyanka Arul Mohan as the female lead alongside S. J. Suryah, Samuthirakani, and Soori in other prominent roles. ## Stay tuned...

Dil Raju Reveals Big Release Date Plans Of 'Thalapathy 66'

Chennai, January 24 - Tamil superstar Thalapathy Vijay was the first A-Lister of Indian cinema to release his film "Master" in theaters during the covid-19 pandemic last year. The movie proved to be a mega-hit in theaters, even though it was made available on OTT 16 days after its theatrical release.## There is no doubt that Thalapathy Vijay is the most bankable actor in Tamil cinema and expectations from his next movies are sky high. The actor recently completed the shoot of director Nelson Dilipkumar's "Beast". The action thriller carries a huge buzz among trade and movie lovers. This Sun Pictures production is scheduled to release in April 2022. ## Meanwhile, the "Bigil" star has started prepping for his next, which is going to be Tamil-Telugu bilingual movie. It is said to be the finest film, to be produced by Vamshi Paidipally, in Vijay's career. Dil Raju, who will be producing this mega-budget action drama film, said in a recent interview that Thalapathy Vijay has really liked the script and called it the best in the last 20 years. ## Dil Raju also has some big plans for the release of "Thalapathy 66". The "Maharshi" producer, who is also producing Ram Charan and Kiara Advani's upcoming film "RC 15", revealed that he has two release dates in mind for Vijay's film, which will be finalized according to the covid-19 scenario in the country. Though "RC 15" is currently slated for Sankranthi 2023 release, this slot might be taken by "Thalapathy 66", if the movie failed to meet the Diwali 2022 timeline due to the covid. ## "Vamshi has come up with a beautiful storyline. When I listened to it, I loved it. Vijay listened to the story and said that he hasn't heard a story like this in 20 years. When a star says this, it gives you confidence. The film's shooting will begin in March. If there are no delays due to Covid-19, then the film will release on Diwali. If it misses Diwali, it will release on Sankranti 2023", Dil Raju said in a recent interview with a Telugu television channel.## There have been reports stating that some of the noted actors and a top-notch technical team will be associated with the project. However, there is no official confirmation regarding the rest of the cast and crew. One can expect the official announcement around March this year once the shoot commences.## Stay tuned...
