Kamal’s 'Vishwaroopam' removed from cinemas!

Kamal Hassan starrer Tamil movie "Vishwaroopam", which focuses on international terrorism, has been withdrawn from cinemas in Malaysia following a directive from the home ministry, a media report said.

 Viswaroopam

Penang Muslim League president Datuk Najmudeen Kadeer urged the National Film Development Corporation to review the film, saying "it portrayed Islam in a negative light", Star Online reported.

The film's distributor Lotus Fivestar AV said it was told to stop screening the movie Friday. The film opened Thursday to packed houses.

"We will refund those who purchased tickets through advance bookings, or allow them to use it for other films," company director Datuk R. Ramalingam said.

The film had been approved by the Censorship Board.

A few movie goers, however, said it was a fictional work and people should be given the opportunity to watch it and make up their own minds.

A few people who tried to buy tickets were disappointed with the ministry's decision.

"There has been so much publicity about the movie and I really wanted to see it," said A. Chandran. "I hope the government will reconsider."

"Vishwaroopam" was banned by the Tamil Nadu government when 25 Muslim organisations objected to the film on the ground that it portrays the community in bad light. The Madras High Court also restricted the film's release till Jan 28. A judge will see the movie and decided on its fate.

Sonakshi Sinha opted out of Kamal Haasan's Viswaroopam!

A  Mumbai tabloid has come out with a story today (June 30) that Sonakshi Sinha has "opted out of Kamal Haasan's Viswaroopam"!

Sonakshi has opted out as her dates clashed with Prabhu Deva directed Akshay Kumar's Rowdy Rathod, produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

The newspaper reports- “The shooting for Viswaroopam was to start from the first week of June but the plan was squashed when director Selvaraghavan walked out of the project. Kamal then decided to take on the directorial reins but has yet to announce when filming will commence, which has perturbed Sonakshi."

A source close to Sonakshi is also quoted as saying -"Sonakshi was extremely professional, while explaining her case to Kamal . There is no animosity between Kamal Haasan and Sonakshi.""

Shriya Saran will be a part of Kamal Haasan's Viswaroopam!

The Kollywood grapevine is abuzz that Shriya Saran will be a part of Kamal Haasan's forthcoming Viswaroopam!

As per a source: "Sonakshi Sinha has been signed to play the main female lead in Viswaroopam. Shriya is likely to play the second heroine in the film and may be Kamal's love interest. The earlier director, Selvaraghavan, gave her a narration of her role and she liked it"

Shriya had been earlier signed to play a role in Kamal's Marmayogi and had even done a photo shoot for the film. And now that Kamal is directing Viswaroopam, Shreya stands a good chance to be part of the film.

Kamal Hassan’s ‘Viswaroopam’!

We had earlier told you that Selvaraghavan’s forthcoming ‘Viswaroopam’ failed to get their visas through for shooting in America. Following which, the team chose to shoot in Canada but looks like the visas for the team has been denied again!


Sources close to the crew suggest this may be due to the plot of the movie that might be based on cannibalism. Sources add that the movie is inspired from ‘The silence of lambs’ and its sequel, ‘Hannibal.’
Since the movie is a trilingual, in Tamil, Hindi and Telugu, Kamal had suggested Selva to work with Shankar-Eshaan-Loy for scoring the music as the trio are the leading music directors up North.


Now the latest news abuzz is that, the team is traveling to London for a period of 35 days where the duet sequences between Kamal Hassan and Sonakshi Sinha and romance scenes between the duo will be shot.
While the crew is busy over their next schedule, Sonakshi is all smiles about the shoot since this would help her do away with the rumours that are spreading like wildfire about her all over Bollywood.

Kamal working hard for his next project!

Selvaraghavan has finally made it! He has got the green signal from Kamal Haasan to direct his next flick. It was reported earlier that Selva and Kamal had met a few days ago and discussed the possibility of working together. When Selva gave him a storyline, Kamal was so impressed that he agreed to it.

 Kamal-Hassan

It is now said that Kamal has begun the groundwork for this Selva-directed flick. As a beginning, we hear that Kamal is hitting the gym everyday to tone up his physique for the role. Music will be scored by Yuvan Shankar Raja for this project, which is yet to be titled.
