PL Thenappan, the producer known for his big budget films like Pancha Thanthiram, Pammal K Sambantham, Kadhala Kadhala and Thenali has produced this small budget movie `Ayyanaar'. It is written and directed by debutante director S.S.Rajamithran who is just out of film institute.
`Ayyanaar' is a catchy title and the film is said to be on village love story with heavy leanings on `thaai paasam' (mother sentiments) as well.
Aadhi of `Mirugam and Eeram' and Meera Nandan of `Vaalmiki' are the lead characters in this film. Meera is a college student who is into volleyball and Aadhi plays the coach. Meera meets the Aadhi by accident and initially develops a bad impression of him and suspects his intentions. At the end it's all rosy. `Ayyanaar' film is largely set in a village, but some scenes take place in the city also.
`Karuthamma' Rajashree is playing the important character of Aadhi's mother. The film was slightly delayed because Rajashree got married and her husband's family was against acting after marriage. The issue was settled later and film was completed.
One highlight of the film will be the comedy track by Santhanam. He is said to have done an important solo comedy track in the film, in which he has spoofed Osama Bin Laden. His hilarious job is sure to have you in splits.
Music is by the young talented S.Thaman who is having a good run these days. Thaman has tuned five songs for the film and one song "Paniye Paniye" is a real lyrical beauty. Lyrics are written by Na. Muthukumar, Thamarai and Vivega. Singers used are Ranjith, Rahul Nambiar. Priyadharshini, Velmurugan, Bruce Lee, Aalaap Raju and Naveen. The audio of `Ayyanaar' was released on June 14 by Bharathiraja and others at Sathyam Cinemas.
About `Ayyanaar' hero Aadhi has said "The film has come out very well and all credits should go my director Rajamithran and Thenappan sir. It is a mass commercial entertainer. The songs are good. Wish it reigns supreme at the box- office." He also said "Dancing was a bit difficult in the film but I managed to."
Music director Thaman has said "I love to work with Aadhi and both of us share a good rapport.
I've done live recording for the film and I always get a lot of energy while working along with Aadhi."
Director Raja Mithran while speaking about the film has said" The story is like a journey that begins from death to birth. This film is a commercial film with reality."
`Ayyanaar' is releasing in July.
