Tamil superstar Rajniknath’s next film is going to be Kuchelan, a Tamil remake of the Malayalam film Katha Parayumbol directed by M Mohanan that is making waves in Kerala. Katha Parayumbol, written by Sreenivasan (he also acted in the film), one of the finest script writers in the country, was recently in Chennai to screen the film for Rajnikanth, his old classmate. The duo studied together at the Adyar Film Institute. Rajni, floored by its simplicity, wanted to act in the film.
After the movie, Rajini who was Sreeni’s senior at South India Film Chamber Institute hugged him. An emotionally choked superstar told him - “It is the best film that I have seen in recent times, it is very touching. Hats off to you Sreeni” Next day he called Sreenivasan home and they discussed in detail how the writer, director and actor is able to come out with stories of the ordinary man which appeals to the common man. Please note that Vellithirai is also a remake of Sreenivasan?s classic Udayananu Tharam. One wonders whether Sreenivasan got the inspiration for the story from Rajni’s life itself.
Now, Rajni will take on Mammooty’s role in the Tamil version aptly titled Kuchelan with reference to the lives of Lord Krishna and his poor friend Kuchelan. Pasupathy, who made a great debut in Kamal’s Virumaandi will act as the barber while Simran will take on Meena’s role (barber’s wife). In fact Simran missed her chance earlier in Chandiramukhi because of her pregnancy. She was totally upset on missing her chance.
Keeping this in mind P.Vasu had approached Simran to act opposite Pasupathy for which she enthusiastically agreed. She will be sharing the screen with the Superstar. She is very excited about this and she is quite happy to return to Kollywood for her second innings.
