Silambarasan to play Vedam tamil version

It seems like Silambarasan who was cleverly managing his acts not getting into the remake wagon has finally boarded the wagon. Silambarasan has signed the remake of the recent sensational Telugu hit ‘Vedam’ that starred Allu Arjun, Manoj and Anushka in lead roles.

Silambarasan who recently saw the Telugu ‘Vedam’ was floored immediately by the Cable Raju character played by Allu Arjun. The Tamil remake rights are with R B Choudary of Super Good Films and with the Tamil version R B Choudary's son and actor 'Jithan' Ramesh will also turn a producer. Silambarasan has even completed a photo session for the remake.

Anushka was contacted to play her role in Tamil also. But the actress is said to have denied the offer. So the new sensation Tapsee of ‘Aadukalam’ may play the role of the commercial sex-worker in the film.

Silambarasan who was supposed to be is London this time for the 'Podaa Podi' shoot is still in Chennai for some reasons. One reason doing the rounds is that the artistes playing the secondary characters are being trained in dance as the film is a dance subject. Another reason said is that the team still hasn’t got the permissions to shoot at some special locations in London.

Vedam movie running successfully in Theatres

Director Radha Krishna will be an extremely pleased man with his second movie, ‘Vedam’ running to full houses. Here’s the talk of the movie for IndiaGlitz readers.

On the opening day, the movie was filled with fans of Allu Arjun and Manchu Manoj. As the week progressed, the talk seemed to have been filled with mixed reviews. The interesting thing is that the movie is running to packed shows. It is house full everywhere as the story and narration of the movie is something new to Telugu audience.

Besides this, fans are thronging theatres, not just to watch Allu Arjun dance but also see him in a new avatar. He has given a terrific performance and has tried to come out of his usual commercial image. Arjun has been receiving rave reviews for his performance in the movie and so is Anushka. Her character, her appearance and her performance all are receiving appreciation as she has accepted a character that not many actresses would dare to do.

Manoj is not far behind. His role of a rock star has received a lot of appreciation and especially his performance in intense scenes. As Krish himself is the designer of costumes in the movie, Manoj was given attractive clothes suiting his character. He pulled off an amazing performance along with the costumes he wore. He looked simply remarkable in the movie.

All the other characters including Manoj Bajpai’s character have received appreciation for their performance. In spite of all this, director Krish has received enormous positive reception and admiration from his counterparts from all around the country. Some say he has been heavily inspired by Hollywood flicks, some say he has made a classy movie, one thing is sure; he has made people think after ‘Vedam’.

Vedam has no entertainment for family crowds

Vedam is the movie which hit screens in the last weekend. The movie was a multi starrer at it featured names such as Allu Arjun, Manchu Manoj and actress Anushka, along with stupendous performance from bollywood actor Manoj Bhajpai.


The movie dealt with a delicate script and was a mirror to the present day society. But strictly speaking ‘Vedam’ is for intellectual minds and has no entertainment for family crowds and youngsters, who are in thirst of feel good movies. The movie has heavy performances from actress Anushka and bollywood actor Manoj Bhajpai and has good performances from actor Allu Arjun and actor Manoj as well.


The publicity of the movie was immensely done with the Anushka’s exposing posters, in order to attract the mass crowds. The reason for it is that, if a movie becomes a hit in the mass crowds, then the mouth talk will be positive and so the collections will be big.


Andhra mirchi Anushka was seen in a role of prostitute and the body language and dialogues impressed the audiences. Director Krish must be given the credit as he has dared to carve a movie, with less entertainment, but has more to think. For a change, ‘Vedam’ kind of movies can help the people get some enlightenment about the society and the process to purify it.

Vedam release date is confirmed as June 3rd

Finally, release date for Vedam has been confirmed. The film is hitting the screens worldwide on June 3rd. It was to release this month but has now been postponed to June 3rd. The film is set to release in maximum number of screens as it is one of the most eagerly awaited movies. Directed by ‘Gamyam’ fame Krish (Jagarlamudi Radhakrishna), it stars Allu Arjun, Anushka and Manchu Manoj in the lead roles.

Anushka's role as sex-workers in Vedam film

Top actresses shy away from playing the role of prostitutes or sex-workers on screen. In Bollywood, several actors like Kareena Kapoor (in Chameli), Rani Mukharjee (Laga Chunari Mein Daag), Tabu (in the Telugu film - Pandurangadu and in the Bollywood flick Chandini Bar) portrayed such characters.
Down south, our actresses hesitate to do such roles as they feel it would spoil their image. But actresses in Tollywood too are coming out of their comfort zone and have started experimenting. Anushka, the daring and sexy actress, is doing such a role in Krish's Vedam. Although she is known for her sexy roles in various films, she had gone in for an image change with Arundhati.
As Amalapuram Saroja, a sex worker from Andhra, she is set to sizzle the screen. The movie also has Allu Arjun and Manchu Manoj in the lead roles. The film is being directed by the talented Krish of Gamyam fame and is expected to hit the screens by June.

Vedam releases on May 27

Vedam, a multi-starrer movie with Allu Arjun, Manoj and Anushka, is all set for release on May 27, considerably dragged from its original schedule in the first week.

Made on Arka Media Works banner, the film is directed by Krish (of Gamyam). The film’s audio released recently will be available in the market stands from May 12.

The film’s shoot was also completed with the last song canned on Allu Arjun and Diksha Seth at a specially erected set at Ramoji Film City. The unit members said that it was a highlight that Allu Arjun himself composed a few steps in the song.

Producer Devineni Prasad said that the film would be released not only in Andhra Pradesh, but in the overseas too, with emphasis in the areas where the Telugu population is concentrating.

Director Krish said that he directed the project with special focus on the screenplay aspect, which would bring a novel experience to the audiences.

Music director Keeravani said that the special song canned on Allu Arjun would bring cheer to all the mega fans. As the audio album will be hitting the music stands on May 12th, he appealed to the music lovers to shun pirated versions and insist on hearing the songs through original CDs.
