Ajith's new image with Kainaat arora
Kainaat Arora - Latest Addition To Ajith's Mankath
Remember the gorgeous girl who wooed and wowed with Akshay Kumar in the song 'Aila Re Aila' from Khatta Meetha?
She donned Dimple Kapadia's look from 'Main Maike Chali Jaaongi' and caught everybody's attention and fantasy. That was Kainaat Arora for you. Though the actress debuted in Bollywood with just an item number, there has been no looking back for her with some of the best offers coming her way. The young lass just finished shooting a song with South superstar Ajith Kumar for his 50 th film Mankatha.
Talking about the song Kainaat reveals, "The film is very special for Ajith as it's his 50 th film and I couldn't have asked for more than an exclusive dance number with the Tamil superstar."
Kainaat is highly excited about the song and is sure it will be a huge hit. She says, "The song is very much like my Hindi song Aila Re Aila and Munni Badnaam Hui. It has a bar setting set in old Mumbai and is very edgy. We shot it in Chennai and it was great fun working with Ajith and the entire Mankatha team."

Mankatha's Full Of Grey Shades
Here’s a Kollywood film that’s based on cricket betting. Thala Ajith’s golden jubilee film Mankatha, which directed by Venkat Prabhu, has Trisha playing the daughter of an underworld don from Mumbai’s Dharavi slums, and Ajith’s love interest.
According to sources, the movie is about cricket betting during an IPL season. The interesting part is that all the actors, including Ajith and Action King Arjun, portray roles with negative shades.
Venkat Prabhu says, “Mankatha is about different people trying to make something happen and how everything changes when one particular factor comes into play. So there will be a lot of unexpected twists and turns. This is not a gangster flick. Though it’s a high-voltage action movie with darker shades, there is no violence involved.”
The director continues, “It does have a mature, lively romance, but there are no clichéd dream song sequences.”
He predicts that Trisha will be the surprise package. The movie’s ensemble cast includes Ajith, Trisha, Arjun, Lakshmi Rai, Vedhika, Vaibhav, Anjali, Premgi Amaran, Mahat, Ganesh Venkatram.
Producer Dhayanidhi Alagiri is confident that he can wrap up the film by mid-March and release it on May 1, which happens to be Ajith’s birthday.

Vishnu cancels billa date - Times of India
Director Vishnuvardhan and the producers of Billa 2 have agreed to part amicably. Vishnu will no longer be directing Ajith’s highly-anticipated Billa 2, a prequel to his Billa (2007).
TOI understands that the producers, Suresh Balaji, George Pious and Sunir Khetrapal, have roped in Chakri Toleti of Unnaipol Oruvan fame as the director.
Vishnuvardhan was forced to opt out of Billa 2 as the shoot was clashing with his Pawan Kalyan Telugu film The Shadow. The director, we learn, had the scripts of both the Telugu and Tamil films ready for the last 18 months, and was waiting for the dates of the stars. But now, it will not be possible for him to direct both the ventures simultaneously as The Shadow is starting in March and Billa 2 in the end of April. The only way forward for Vishnu was to drop one of the projects and he took the hard decision to opt out of Billa 2.
Speaking exclusively to CT, Mumbai-based Sunir Khetrapal, the presenter of the film, said, “After talking with Vishnu, we have decided to amicably sort out the issue. He will now do his Telugu film with Pawan Kalyan. We will definitely do another Tamil film with him at a later date. As of now, Billa 2 will be directed by Chakri Toleti, who was signed some time ago to do a film with us.” Touted to be made on a budget of ` 30 crore, it’ll perhaps be the most expensive Ajith film made till date.
Khetrapal also made it clear that the Ajith-starrer will start rolling in the end of April as soon as the star completes his Venkat Prabhu-directed Mankatha. Sunir explains, “The story and screenplay of Billa 2 is being developed in-house by our team of writers, along with Chakri. It will be a prequel and will be about how David Billa became a dreaded international don. Yuvan Shankar Raja is scoring the music for the film. The other technical details are being worked out currently. We should have the list of the complete star cast by March 15. We are also on the lookout for a girl to be paired as Billa’s first love.”
Chakri Toleti started his career as a child artist in south Indian movies before moving to the US where he got a degree in filmmaking and VFX. Recognising his potential, Kamal gave him the big break as director and also the role of a scientist in Dasavatharam.

‘Mankatha’ not in Mumbai but Chennai
Contrary to some media reports that held the ‘Mankatha’ cast is in Mumbai city shooting for the film in the famous Dharavi area, the director of the film Venkat Prabhu has said that it was only him and his crew went to scout for the locations. Ajith and other actors were not there for any job. No shooting happened in Mumbai. Venkat Prabhu further said the next immediate schedule will happen only in Chennai and the Mumbai schedule will happen sometime later. Another interesting information disclosed by Venkat Prabhu is that ‘Mankatha’ will have a short animation sequence that will be created with world class techniques. The sequence that will run for 3-5 minutes will be a highlight of the film according to Venkat Prabhu. With the planned scheduled going little skewed will ‘Mankatha’ release on May 1 as announced? Considering the World Cup and IPL cricket seasons coming up, we think it will go beyond May. Source: Indiaglitz |

Vishuvardhan's double dhamaka - Times of India
The big smile is back on director Vishnu-vardhan's face. For the last two years, he has been moving mountains to start two of his pet projects a Telugu film with Pawan Kalyan and Ajith's Billa 2.
Now, all of a sudden, both the films are going to kickstart back-to-back. Vishnu, who is known for his stylish entertainers, is one of the few filmmakers in Kollywood who has an opening.
In an interview to CT, Vishnuvardhan says, "For the last 18 months, I had both these scripts ready. But everything had to fall in place and it looks like I will start both the films now. I'll start Pawan Kalyan's The Shadow in the first week of March. It is a gangster film about a protagonist on a journey and his fight within himself as he discovers that you can't fight your own dynasty. Jackie Shroff, Tanikella Bharani and Brahmanandam will be part of the cast. And then, there'll be Sarah Jane and Jiah Khan. Music is being composed by my buddy Yuvan Shankar Raja and P S Vinod will be the cameraman.
Meanwhile, the director is gung-ho about Billa 2. Says an excited Vishnu, "The film, which will start rolling at the end of April, is something that I'm eagerly looking forward to. Ajith sir is my all-time favourite star and we had a ball making Billa. Billa 2 is a prequel that will start in a small coastal town in south Tamil Nadu and travel to Goa and from there to some of the most exotic places in the world. The film is about how a guy from a small town in TN goes on to become the most stylish and powerful underworld don.
Vishnu is quite clear about Ajith's look in the film. "He has to look younger than he was in Billa. At the moment, he has a George Clooney-style sexy look with a salt-and-pepper stubble for Venkat Prabhu's Mankatha. For Billa 2, he will undergo a complete transformation. My team consisting of designer Anu Vardhan and cinematographer Nirav Shah are taking a lot of trouble trying to work out the new look. Yuvan's songs and background score will be an all-new experience.
About others in the cast and the heroine, Vishnu says, "Prabhu sir will definitely be a part of Billa 2. We have embarked on a hunt for the heroine. Just like how the leading lady is important in a James Bond film, my heroine has to be super sexy, smart and savvy. We are looking for somebody like Nayan — before Billa, she had a demure image but post the release of the film, she turned out to be a phenomenon. If we don't find anybody in the south, we will go to Mumbai.
So, how does he plan to work on two films in different languages simultaneously? "I had locked both my scripts some time back. When I write a script, it will be a shot-by-shot description including details about location and other technical data. So, at the time of the shoot, it becomes easy and cost effective. I've always completed my shoots in less than 90 days. Both my films will release in 2011," signs off Vishnu.
