Neerparavai made me a confident actor: Sunaina

She’s back at the scene and the way! With a wonderfully realistic performance in Seenu Ramasamy’s Neerparavai, produced by Red Giant Movies, Sunaina has proved once more that she’s an actor to observe out for. Picky about her roles, the actor talks in regards to the experience of working in Neerparavai and how the film has changed her..

What’s your role like within the film?I play Esther, an orphan Christian girl who works in a Church, in a fishing village set during 1980’s. She falls in love with a neighborhood drunken, wastrel played by Vishnu. How their life changes is the story.

It’s a realistically portrayed character, different from the standard masala fare. How did you prepare for it?Yes, that’s true, its different from the jobs I’ve done up to now. So I USED TO BE nervous. Seenu sir had only told me to wind up on shoot and take it from there. I had no preparation of any kind. My biggest fear was that I had no reference for this sort of character from the 80’s. My eyes needed to do all of the talking mostly. Dialogues are less within the film. So I USED TO BE confused. But Seenu is a brilliant director. He changed me completely. He just told me to not act, and follow my heart in every scene. He said my feelings would show in my eyes. And that’s exactly what I did. Such a lot so, I BEGAN crying within the scenes with none glycerin.

So had the film changed you in any way?Yes! My entire view of acting has changed post Neerparavai! It has made me more confident as an actor. From now on, I WILL BE ABLE TO never be nervous before a movie. And that’s because Seenu sir taught me to feel deeply what I'M doing and get completely into the character.

How was it working with Vishnu?Vishnu is a superb actor. Something we share in common is that like me, he too takes his work very seriously. In fact, he plays a drunk within the film or even after the shot, if I spoke to him,  he would still be in drunk like state, talking with a slur! I USED TO BE amazed to peer his dedication to the nature to make it real! I USED TO BE really happy to work with someone like him!


Neerparavai Movie Online – Review

That director Seenu Ramasamy feels genuine affection for his characters is obvious in every scene of Neerparavai. He knows them well, he’s acquainted with their lives, and he embraces their quirks and their contradictions. The film is ready against sea backdrop and is ready fishermen community living within the coast of Rameswaram.

It is a sad tale of affection weaved intrinsically into the film’s plot and in addition makes a speciality of a significant relevant issue. Never portraying any of its protogonists as villains, the film carefully avoids judging its characters, and therein lies its strength.

Arulappasamy (Vishnu) is a tender man who's an alcoholic and wastrel who's a continuing embarrassment for his hardworking parents (Ram and Saranya) . Esther (Sunaina ) is an orphan girl who's adopted by a nun and she or he stays within the church. Arulappan slowly gets interested in Esther and his love for her, changes him. He gives up drinking and needs to work in order that he can marry Esther. However the local fishermen don't allow him to enter the ocean. The young man as a result of his determination buys a ship , marries his love and life is all rosy, till fate intervenes.

The film keeps you engaged not such a lot at the strength of its plot, because it does for the interesting characters who inhabit it. Assembling a rock-solid cast of actors who appear to effortlessly inhabit their roles, the director strikes gold together with his supporting players too and it’s difficult to show who's better than whom.

Of the leads, Vishnu does well with minimal dialogue, counting on his eyes and his expressions to do the communicating, especially in those scenes with Sunaina where he’s expected to strum up romance and chemistry.

Sunania is a revelation and he or she delivers a measured performance. It's perhaps her best ever up to now and he or she leaves a long-lasting impression. Ram, Saranya , Thambi Ramadurai, Azhagamperumal, Samuthirakani or even Vadivukarasi in that small role is phenomenal. However, Nandita Das doesn’t have much to do.

The film also benefits enormously from Balasubramaniam’s remarkable cinematography, as his camera captures shots of the ocean in all its glory and the sheer visual delight of the Para Para Para.. song picturisation will stay to your mind. Raghunathan’s songs and background score is commendable.

On the downside, the primary half is just a little slow and the climax is contrived. But at the whole, this can be a moving drama so as to undoubtedly leave you with a lump for your throat. And flicks like this are hard to find.

Verdict: Good


Meera is back

Meera Jasmine, who made her Kollywood debut with Run opposite Madhavan went directly to become probably the most sought-after-actresses. The actress, then gradually reduced her work load and there came a time when she almost disappeared from Kollywood. The actress was last seen in Malaiyur Mambattian opposite Prashanth, which was directed by his father Thiagarajan.

Meera Jasmine returned to the Malayalam film industry with Babu Janardhanan’s Lisammayude Veedu, that is the sequel to Lal Jose’s Achanurangatha Veedu.

The latest we hear is that the actress is doing the lead role in director Shajiyem’s Ms. Lekha Tharoor Kaanunnathu. The actress plays a TV show host at nighttime fantasy. Badri, who was some of the heroes in Mamas’ eminently forgettable Cinema Company, plays the male lead. The shooting is on in Kochi.


Maattrraan completed a run of fifty days on the box-office

Suriya’s Maattrraan, directed by KV Anand has completed a run of fifty days on the box-office. The movie is running in a couple of screens around the state despite the influx of the brand new Diwali releases.Kajal Aggarwal also had a prominent role on this movie which featured Suriya within the role of conjoined twins. The movie handled themes like performance enhancing drugs, genetic sciences and baby designing. Harris Jayaraj composed some hit tunes for the album.

Team Maattrraan should feel satisfied on the outcome on the box-office.

Now, it has come to our knowledge that the actor have been signed for the Tamil remake of SS Rajamouli’s Maryada Ramanna.PVP Cinemas holds the remake rights and can produce the film. R Kannan, who's currently directing Settai, the remake of Delhi Belly, will helm the megaphone for this project.

Siva Karthikeyan was also considered for the lead role, but finally it has come right down to Santhanam. The Hindi remake of the film, Son of Sardaar, starring Ajay Devgn, Sonakshi Sinha and Sanjay Dutt hit the screens recently and is doing great business within the north.


Manisha Koirala hospitalized

Manisha Koirala, once the darling of cinema buffs around the country was hospitalized since Wednesday. The 42 year old fell unconscious suddenly and was rushed to the hospital. The doctors are giving her an intensive check up and it's expected that she's going to be released once the medical reports are out.
