S2 Cinemas : Satyam's New Multiplex at Perambur

Of the 6 yrs in I have been in Chennai , I can say with assurity that Satyam cinemas is the best in the City . The only multiplex which boast a RDX ( Real Digital Experience) surround Sound System. The one which has a cool website which one can browse thru easily and book tickets with any confusions .

So It was with amazing news for me when I heard that They have opened  a new Multiplex at Spectrum Mall, Perambur ...titled as S2

Spectrum Mall Boasts the grandest Big Bazaar  and now it has another skill to add to its boasting list ..First thing I noticed when i went Inside was the ambience of the theatre. ...Breadtakingly Beautiful , mostly due to the yellow light which are placed at the ceiling at regular intervals ...Simple but the epitome of perfection it was..It didn t have any chandeliers or lush carpets , harsh lighting that some other theatres have ..They chose a color which was vibrant but at the same time pleasant to look and be in .

Inside the theatre was even more astonishing ...It has the same yellowish tinge with the walls a dull matte grey ...What attracted me was the screen ...I watched a movie by sitting in the 2nd row and my god I was blown away ..It looked like I was looking at a LED screen in FULL HD  ...It was crystal clear. RDX again rocks to the core...

They wanted to attract the crowd in Anna Nagar and wola thus S2 was born ....I am sure most would agree with me ,after u have gone once , that they had really outdone this time.

Go with your Family and Enjoy ...Bcos this is not something one should miss .....

Saguni

Saguni is a mass entertainer at its best or is it ? . Karthi has created a huge image for him with his previous movies has really blasted off in this..Is that so ? . Coming around in the name of Kamal , the Hiatus he creates along with Santhanam who comes as Rajini in the movie is the only thing that even makes the movie recognisable. I mean without Santhanam , the movie wud have fallen down right on its face.

Story line is so weak and cinematic and filled with so many holes that a DAM of water can filter throught it withing seconds.

Screenplay was in good grace , but still was too DAMN slow. Pranita comes around as the lead actress , but fails poorly (No one can blame her ). Although she is cute looking with her big round eyes , she has been used as Heroines are used from first in Tamil Cinema Industry (i.e) only for songs. 

Radhika Sarathkumar , Prakash Raj , Kiran , Roja, Kota Srinivasa Rao ( Saniyan Sagadai of Thirupathci fame ) do make their appearences . But only Radhika and Prakash Raj manages to create an impression.

Music score is done by G.V Prakash is cool and pleasant . To say the truth the only part wher you can really enjoy the movie are the song sequences . 

Karthi has tried to impress with his dancing skills , but he still makes us to burst out in laughter in some sequences where he tries to fool us that he is doing a very unique and challenging step :-D

"Grow up my boy , but still a nice try ...And watch ur tummy , Better to get some tips from ur bro "...

The Karthi Starrer Saguni was supposed to be released along with Billa 2 , My God ...I can t imagine what would have happened if that has been the case . Thank God Bill 2 got pushed back due to censor cerificate issues. huh guys ;-)

Osthe - The Mass , Which was considered to be the blockbuster of simbu is major let down. After playing roles like VTV,Vaanam dont know why STR even considered this role . From scene 1 , the movie stresses the point that its purely a commercial one with STR kicking ass of more than 30 goons. The beauty of it is that , most of the time he is not the ground . He is a combination of SUPERMAN + Matrix NEO + KRISSH + HULK .Either he is pedalling in the air or flying like a rocket. Whenever the Theme "OSTHE MAAMU" kicks off , Watch the skies bcos thats where Simbu will be.

The story is the same as in Dabaang , so no suprises there but still Dharani could have changed it a little more according to our style. Screenplay is awful.Even the first half gets boring after the first 15 min. Santhanam's one liners do bring some titters here and there but not for long , Simbu's one liners smashes it and puts a frown on ur face and later transforms it into a scowl and which in turn , turns gradually into disgust.

The only beauty in the movie is Richa Gangopadhay who looks a knockout in half saree. But like i said its a commercial movie so She comes in only for the songs. Dharani was gracious enough to give her 2 to 3 words here and there in the movie. Thank God ! Mayakkam enna came first or else Richa would have kissed her career goodbye in Tamil Industry.

The only thing which is good in this movie are the songs which has caused a sensation when it was released first. Although the choreography is disapointing at some places , STR rocks with his special moves . "Neduvalee" song is the best , Thanks to ROBERT. Hell ! even Santhanam does a step that pulls whistles
from the fans :-). The BGM is tremendously good , Thanks to Thaman.

And the Six pack craze has finally touched Simbu too. Yup he rips off his shirt at last or technically the shirt rips off by itself
when he gets angry , Coool ! huh !!! :-)).. Although his is not perfect as Surya's was , Still it was a nice try .


Overall: So if u want to see a cheery simbu, Cheesy Dialouges, Awful screenplay , hot Richa , no story (Ooops ! ! my bad :-) , i meant a sad story and some peppy songs ,Osthe is the movie for u .

Osthe MAAMu -----> Sema Mokka MAAMU

3 - The Movie

If u thought that Mayakkam Enna was the best potrayal of the rare and deep love that exists between a boy and a girl then 3 will defnitely change ur opinion of tat . Aishwarya .R. Dhanush has sculptured a gorgeous love story that can ever exist in between 2 mutual loving hearts , Ram ♥ Janani .

The story starts with the blossoming of Love in school days ( Idalin oru oram...) that gradually grows and strengthens in coll and finally leads to marriage in a BAR (Come on girls ...)....yup u heard that right. There ends the first half of the movie. Second half, Say hello to a new disease in Tamil Film Industry - BIPOLAR DISORDER (not to be confused with split personality ). To know more about the disease check out this links

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_disorder

http://www.helpguide.org/mental/bipolar_disorder_symptoms_treatment.htm

Ram comes to know of this rare disease he has from his friend who explains to him about the erratic behaviour Ram has undergone unknown to him. He forbids his friend from telling the truth to Janani as he fears the truth would pain her to the core and he will not be able to bear that. Wat seems to have been a noble decision at tat time soon leads to his demise.He starts distancing himself from janani fearing his maniac behaviour may end in hurting her (Po nee Po ...). Janani realises that something is not right and finally confronts him and ends up breaking down in front of him , begging him to share wats troubling him . The emotional breakdown of hers leads Ram to another maniac state which would have ended with a knife to janani's face if not for the timely arrival of his friend. Once Ram realises wat he had been fearing for a long time had almost come true he decides that he can no longer live in the world where he himself wud become a Threat to only person who means everything to him and ends up with taking his life.

If he had shared his problem with Janani or if he had got got proper medical attention at the right time coud the final end have been deffrent ??? Well it wud always make us wonder . One could argue tat as to why he didnt get proper medical attention and get cured. But hey , the guy is seriously unstable in mind . Unlike you , A rationale decision wud have been impossible for him to take. It all comes down to the moral of the movie tat suicide is never an option for anything.

Dhanush is phenomenal through out the movie. His acting talents has really peaked. My god this guy can act. Mayakkam Enna can just be considered as a teaser to this guy's talent . Minblowing performance by him , especially in the last 10 min , WOW .

Shruthi Hasan looks ravishing in each and every frame of the movie . Fits perfectly for the role, no other heroine could have done this role better than her. And about the scenes where she cries , some say thats it was irritating and she looked damn ugly when she did that . I beg to differ . My ques is , Could any other actress cry like that ? as if the entire soul has been ripped off from her . The pain of losing ur most beloved one , could anyone else have shown it like her ??? . Well I think not .

BGM and music Score by the new Guy "Anirudh" is astounding . I think the whole world knows it from "Kolaveri" :-) So need to expand on tat . To put it in a nutshell : Mindblowing . Bcos whomever be the actor , finally its the music that moves you and pushes u to the verge of tears.

Be it the camera angle or the way the story has been moved , screenplay and everything there is a touch of Sevaragavan throughout. Side effects of working as a assisant to him. Huh !!! The expert touches are here and there. I mean u can take one look at the movie and decide tat its not the work of an amateur. I mean not everything was explained by words alone . A lot of the scenes has to be guessed . For eg : When the Inspector comes and tells than according to the PM ( Post Mortem) report it was not murder as they tot it was , but Suicide . Thats the beauty of the film.

It doesnt give importance to the minor details like the school names , the marks they got , the coll they studied at all. The movie just revolves around Ram and Janani and the love between them while the trivial things had to be guessed from the backgound. I think thats a huge plus. No dream sequence songs in some foreign countires too...Thank god !!


This is no commercial film with superhuman fights ,cheesy dialouges and glamorous songs . This is pro movie which one shud take the time and patience to really soak it up . I mean seriously guys , if u dont like the movie please keep it to urself in Theaters while others are watchin the movie. I mean , U may not be mature enof to understand the movie but others who do wud really be disturbed with ur constant "u think FUNNY comments " ...sheesh !! . I was so disturbed the first time by a guy (who was sitting befor me) who kept on loud pathetic comments just bcos the girls who had come with him were laughing , that i had to watch it again in order to get the feel.

Rumour has it tat the movie is from a book "Life is as u make it " by Preethy Shenoy . Dont know how far its true . But if the movie is this good who cares where its from. And i was kind of expecting that movie wud reflect Aishwarya's own story , With simbu :-P ..I was searching for clues through out the movie but couldn t find any ..So :-)

Overall : An Excellent potrayal of love . Mayakkam Enna just showed the strength of a girl's love. While 3 shows the depth of a boy's Love too. The girl loves him like he is her oxygen while the guy loves her as if she is her next breadth . Hats off to Aishwarya.R.Dhanush . An excellent director in making
