Arjun walks out of 'Harischandra ghat'!


Arjun, hero in BP Srinivas's 'Harischandra Ghat' has walked out of the film. The actor said that he did not want to be identified with a person like Srinivas.

Srinivas is having the worst time in his career and life. He debuted as a director recently with 'Mussanje Gelathi', a miserable flop at the box-office. Then an arrest warrant was issued against him for not paying off an old debt. It was followed by allegations of cheating people to the tune of crores of rupees.

Arjun says, "I was not aware of these allegations involving Srinivas earlier. After signing the film, I came across only negative news about him. I don't want to associate myself with a person like him. I had not charged any remuneration for acting in 'Harischandra Ghat' nor have I taken an advance from him. As of now I have told him that I won't be acting in his film," says Arjun.

The film commenced on August 15th, the birthday of Srinivas. Three days of shooting was held after the muhurath.

Rajni impressed with 'Eeram'


A special screening of 'Eeram', produced by director Shankar's S Pictures, was held in Chennai for Rajnikanth. The film, a horror thriller, has been directed by Shankar's former assistant Arivazhagan.

The superstar liked the film, conceptualized and shot in a novel way, very much. He said that the film would attract women audiences as in the case of 'Chandramukhi' and 'Arundhati'.

Shankar, director Arivazhagan, music director Thaman and Aadhi were among the film crew present on the occasion. The film, already a superhit in amil Nadu, stars Aadhi, Nandha and Sindhu Menon in the lead.

Prithviraj in Rafi-Mecartin film


Prithviraj, basking in the glow of back to back hits in 'Puthiya Mugham' and 'Robinhood', is all set to try comedy for the first time in his career. He will soon be acting in a film by Rafi-Mecartin.

The director duo has given a series of superhits including 'Thenkasi Pattanam', 'Chathikkatha Chandu' and 'Hallo'. But their latest offering, Mammootty starrer 'Love in Singapore', failed miserably at the B.O.

Prithviraj is finally coming into his own as a bankable star. He has scored a big hit in Tamil with 'Ninaithale Inikkum', a remake of his Malyalam hit 'Classmates'. His forthcoming Tamil release is Mani Ratnam's 'Raavan'. He is now busy with 'Rahupathy Raghava Rajaram' by Shaji Kailas, 'Anwar' by Amal Neerad and a Lal Jose film.

'Aadhavan' fetches record sum in Kerala


Suriya starrer 'Aadhavan' has been sold for a whopping Rs 1.25 crore for Kerala territory, it is reported.

This is the highest amount fetched by a Suriya film in Kerala. His last release, KV Anand's 'Ayan' was sold for Rs 80 lakh and the film did business exceeding Rs 1.35 crore, our sources in Kollywood say.

If the film, directed by KS Ravikumar, becomes successful, Suriya will overtake Vijay as the No 1 Tamil hero in Kerala.

The film, starring Malayali actress Nayantara in the female lead, will be released across 85 screens in Kerala.

Swathi to pair up with Vikram

Colours Swathy, who hit the limelight with her brilliant performance in 'Subrahmanyapuram', has bagged the biggest role in her career to date, says our source.

She will be playing the female lead opposite Chiyaan Vikram in the untitled film to be directed by Selvaraghavan. The film will be produced by Kanakaratna Ramesh.

Swathy entered showbiz through the Telugu TV programme, titled 'Colours'. It was Selvaraghavan who gave her first break in 'Adavari Matalaku Ardhale Verule', which was later remade into Tamil as 'Yaaradi Nee Mohini'.

Post 'Subrahmanyapuram', Swathy has been getting many offers in the lead, but the intelligent actress is being very choosy about them.

Month gap between Nag and Chaitanya movies?

Naga Chaitanya is currently shooting for Gowtam Menon's latest Telugu movie in Chennai. This film will also be ready for the release by December. As per the sources of Xboard Tollywood, there is going to be a comfortable gap of 30 days between the release of Nagarjuna's film and Naga Chaitanya's movie.

Arya 2 in November?


As per the sources of Xboard, Allu Arjun's much awaited movie Arya 2 might be releasing in November (either 11th November of 13th November). This decision is said to be taken by keeping in the view of 100 days run of Magadheera film. Magadheera which turned out to be the industry hit of Telugu created history in terms of collections and 50 days centers. If Arya 2 is released before the completion of 100 days of Magadheera, some of the buyers (who bought both Magadheera and Arya 2) might be tempted to replace Magadheera with Arya 2. But November is said to be off-season for movie releases. That is why NTR's film in VV Vinayak direction is postponed to December (to cash in both Christmas and Sankranthi holidays) though the product would be ready for November. It may be noted that there is no bad season for a good film. Prior to the release of Magadheera, trade pundits felt that it missed summer season. Being a good film, Magadheera created history by releasing in off-season.
