Sameera Reddy had to be rushed to a private hospital after she fainted on the sets of the untitled film directed by Prabhu Deva starring Vishal. Doctors treating Sameera have advised a week’s rest as Sameera is suffering from fever.
Sources close to the actress say that she has been working round the clock for the past several months as she has committed to a Telugu and Hindi film apart from several stage shows and this has taken a toll on her health.
After the stupendous success of ‘Siruthai’, Karthi is taking his time to decide on his next. While the production house is almost confirmed to be his Green Studios, the director has not been decided yet.
As per latest news available with us, directors Boopathy Pandian and Jagan are trying their best to convince Karthi.
Boopathy Pandian was fairly successful in his combination with Dhanush. Their films together like ‘Devathayai Kanden’ and ‘Thiruvilayadal Arambam’ were big boosts to Dhanush in his early days. However Boopathy Pandian’s last film ‘Kadhal Solla Vandhen’ failed to evoke interest in spite of some good music from Yuvan Shankar Raja.
On the other hand Jagan is waiting for another good one to prove his mettle after his decent debut in ‘Raman Thediya Seethai’. Even the almost there ‘Ilaignan’ missed his hands last year.
The Nanban team, including Vijay, Jiiva, Srikanth, Sathyaraj, director Shankar, is now in Dehradun to shoot a major portion of the film there. The director had initially planned to start the shooting of Nanban in Dehradun but changed the location to Ooty where he shot the first schedule.
With Vijay joining the Nanban team, the entire unit had left for Dehradun recently. On the sets yesterday, Srikanth, who plays an important role in the film, celebrated his birthday. Vijay, Jiiva, Shankar and others made the occasion special by arranging a small party for the actor.
Kollywood is importing its newest item girl from Bollywood via Ajith’s 50th film ‘Mankatha’.
She is the gorgeous Kainaat Arora who wooed the audience in the song 'Aila Re Aila' from ‘Khatta Meetha’ directed by Priyadarshan. Yes, the same film that introduced our Trisha to Bollywood.
Kainaat Arora is just back from doing an item song in ‘Mankatha’. She shot for the song with Ajith for four days. So what was it like dancing along with Thala. Kainaat has no words to narrate it. She raves about him and says” he is not only a great actor but a great human being too.”
Ajith on his part surprised the bombshell with his customary culinary skills too. During the four days, one day Ajith surprised Kainaat with boiled chicken, on another day he made lovely dosas and chicken soup for her.
All said and done, Kainaat is sure that her hot item song with Ajith in the film will be a visual treat to all. Let’s hope so.
Far from the eagerly anticipated and globally televised event it is today, the first Academy Awards ceremony took place out of the public eye during an Academy banquet at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. Two hundred seventy people attended the May 16, 1929 dinner in the hotel’s Blossom Room; guest tickets cost $5. It was a long affair filled with speeches, but Academy President Douglas Fairbanks made quick work of handing out the statuettes.
There was little suspense when the awards were presented that night: the recipients had already been announced three months earlier. That all changed the following year, however, when the Academy decided to keep the results secret until the ceremony but gave a list in advance to newspapers for publication at 11 p.m. on the night of the Awards. This policy continued until 1940 when, much to the Academy’s consternation, the Los Angeles Times broke the embargo and published the names of the winners in its evening edition – which was readily available to guests arriving for the ceremony. That prompted the Academy in 1941 to adopt the sealed-envelope system still in use today.
Fifteen statuettes were awarded at the first ceremony for cinematic achievements in 1927 and 1928. The first Best Actor winner was acclaimed German tragedian Emil Jannings, who had to return to Europe before the ceremony. The Academy granted his request to receive the trophy early, making his statuette the very first Academy Award ever presented.
