sensation, Radhika Apte, would indeed be the lucky girl to share screen
space with our Superstar in the untitled Ranjinikanth project. (Also

Some of Rajini's lead ladies in the past have had terrific performance oriented roles like Ramya Krishnan in Padayappa, Jyothika in Chandramukhi and Aishwarya Rai in Endhiran, while some others have just been there for the song and dance routine.
Radhika has revealed that she would be playing a powerful and challenging character in the film, that wouldn't require her to be just a glam-doll. It is believed that Rajini who would be playing an ageing gangster in the movie, would attempt an image make-over to do content oriented roles.
The film produced by Kalaipuli S Dhanu also features Attakathi's Dinesh and Madras's Kalaiarasan in supporting characters. The shoot is expected to begin in Malaysia in September.
Nineteen-year-old Rachit, an undergraduate student in Mumbai, believes cinema can affect one's notions of love. He says Bollywood has long portrayed "pehli nazar mein pyaar" ("love at first sight") and the idea that there is something called "true love" it will be found one day. "I have friends who have been looking for such love," says Rachit, "There are many, though, who believe that it's bullshit."
While preaching love at first sight is not the exclusive domain of Bollywood love stories, these are very one-dimensional depictions of love and this in turn defines romance for the audience in ways that are more about spectacle than anything else. "The idea that comes across in young guys, who think they are in love, is that they can give their 100 percent and get the girl," explained Rachit. "I'll go after the girl, propose to her in the middle of the market and impress her. That's what they think, when actually they end up harassing and embarrassing the girl."
Tushali raised a similar point. "Some guys keep pestering girls, thinking 'she will give in'. But that's not how it is," she said. "It has happened to me. A boy kept coming back at me despite my clear refusal of any such interest. I refused his advances thrice with a polite 'no' and then had to be stern the fourth time, to which he replied, 'faaltu mein latka rahi thi' ("she kept me hanging for no reason"). The guy eventually understood, but his ego got hurt."

Our filmmakers must learn from our drama industry, it had almost crashed at one point when the producers, writers, and directors started copying Indian dramas. However, when our own original product, containing our values and culture, was presented, our dramas did not only become a big success in Pakistan but received a huge appreciation in the global market and introduced Pakistan and its artists on the international level. Good example are dramas like humsafar, zindagi gulzar hai, etc. Why can’t we apply the same maturity towards our film industry and bring the original script and our own tradition. Why can’t we be more smart and try to attract the majority of audiences by making sensible movies with strong scripts and a message. We have a lot of talent in our country and all its possible when we try to think out of the box. Our film industry should try to create its own individual style not become a replica of Bollywood because in this day and age, audiences are smart enough to choose the original version not some second-rate carbon copy.
