JAYAM RAVI GETS MODELS FROM RUSSIA
The Jayam Ravi-Tamanna starrer Thillalangadi is progressing in full swing. The shooting of this film was recently on near the Meenambakkam airport in Chennai. A song sequence has been picturised here with the lead pair. Twenty models from Russia were specially flown in for this duet song, says sources close to the Thillalangadi unit.
A massive set at the cost of Rs. 50 lakhs were built for canning this song, which begins with the lyrics Pattu Pattu Pattamboochi. Thillalangadi is directed by Jayam Raja and is produced by editor Mohan. It is the remake of the Telugu blockbuster Kick.
A new ACTOR’S TEMPLE!
Action King Arjun, a devotee of lord Anjaneyar, will build a temple for his favorite God in Chennai. A huge Anjaneyar statue, measuring about 23 feet, was made at the behest of Arjun. Since the actor wanted the statue to be made of a single stone, it took him nearly a year to find such a stone and another four years to have it sculpted.
The Anjaneyar, which is in a seated position, will be the tallest Anjaneyar statue in that position in the world. The idol will be transported to Chennai from Karnataka in a 160-wheeled truck.
Arjun says that he would build a temple for his lord and throw it open to the public.
