Diwali is upon us, and for fans of Indian film, that means that we can see the year's biggest titles as they all flood the market at once. Last year Ar Murugadoss stepped into the Diwali ring with Surya in 7aam Arivu, a high-concept disaster that squandered its early promise by shoehorning in unwieldy masala tropes that completely broke the rhythm of the main storyline. The same day saw the release of Tamil cinema's other big Diwali release, Velayudham, which starred the people's hero, Ilayathalapathy Vijay as a rural superhero. One of these films was supposed to be a new kind of blockbuster, and the other all-out entertainer, but neither came out entirely successful. However, this year the main forces behind last year's Tamil clash...

It's been a year since Tamil superstar director Ar Murugadoss and superstar actor Vijay clashed at the box office on Diwali of 2011. Ar Murugadoss' 7am Arivu was an ambitious critical failure/box office success while Vijay's Velayudham was a critic proof hit with the masses in rural Tamil Nadu. Neither film was particularly well-received, even though both were highly anticipated by fans and aficionados alike. This year they'll be meeting at the box office again, but as collaborators as Ar Murugadoss directs Vijay in his latest film, Thupakki.This Diwali entry in the Tamil calendar has been, appropriately, the most anticipated film of the year for many fans. Murugadoss has a solid history of box office and critical successes, in spite of the hiccup of 7am...

Chennai Dec 14: After playing a village belle in Tamil movie 'Velayudham', Hansika Motwani has turned gangster for her next movie 'Vettai Mannan'.
'I am playing a character not done by me before. I have a different look. I play a gangster girl,' said the actress, who is currently shooting the Tamil language movie with Simbu and Deeksha Seth.
However, Hansika is not playing Simbu's love interest in the film and the insiders feel this twist makes the plot more interesting.

This Diwali (October 26th) is a crowded one on the Indian film calendar. Battling 7aam Arivu for the top spot on the Tamil charts this year will be Vijay's superhero film, Velayudham. This film has been in production forever, and it seems like it kept getting delayed as well, until it landed on the Diwali spot. I've seen bits and pieces of the film flying around on the net over the last 8 months or so, but I wanted to post a real trailer before I made any sort of comment on the film, so here it is.Unfortunately, the full trailer seems to confirm my general disinterest in this title. It seems that there is a ton of singing and dancing and fan service to...
