Vettai Mannan : JAI Interview
Vettai Mannan
Vettai Mannan is a Simbhu movie and I am playing an important role in it. It’s a story of friends. It’s a gangster movie with an interesting screenplay. This is director Nelson’s first movie, who has earlier directed many shows in television. Simbhu and I have been good friends for about 10 years and we were supposed to do a movie together when I finished Bhagavathy. But then things worked out only now. You can see the chemistry we share onscreen and it would be amazing.
Highlight fight in Vettai Mannan
There is a single shot fight sequence in Vettai Mannan that goes on for several minutes. That was my first day shoot for Vettai Mannan. It’s something of a new attempt in Tamil and it will be talked about after the movie is released.
What is your role in Vettai Mannan?
Both our roles are equally important. I do not have a heroine whereas he has three. I am sort of a girl-hater in the movie. We are planning for a combination song but it’s still being worked on.
If you have to dance with Simbu, how do you plan to manage it?
Since we are close friends, it can be worked upon. If I cannot match his steps, he will tone his steps down to my level.
What do you like in Simbu?
Simbu knows how to treat his friends and that is why our friendship lasted for 10 years. We talk a lot about cinema.

Simbu vs. Jiiva this Valentines Day?
Simbu's 'Podaa Podi', which is in the making for a longtime now, is nearing completion. The shooting is almost over but for a song, which will be canned after Diwali. "The movie will sure hit the screens for Valentines Day," says a source very close to the unit. "The song is a romantic number and the comfort level between both the actors is good and this is expected to result in a great chemistry between them," the source further says, adding: "The film has shaped up as an interesting romantic entertainer with never seen before sort of dance sequences."Directed by Vignesh, 'Podaa Podi' has actress-danseuse Shobana in a pivotal role. "Her character forms important part of the script and she is happy about making a comeback on big screen with Podaa Podi. STR too is thrilled to have her on board," the source informs. At present, Simbu is busy with multiple projects, including 'Osthi', 'Vettai Mannan' and 'Kettavan'. "His focus will turn on Podaa Podi once he completes the remaining portions of Osthi," we learn. 'Podaa Podi' is the debut film of Varalaxmi, daughter of Sarath Kumar. This also means its Simbu vs. Jiiva at the box-office for Valentines Day 2012, for it may be recalled that Jiiva's 'Neethane En Ponvasantham' directed by Gautham Menon is touted to see light of the day on Valentines Day.-Sources: - IndiaGlitZ

Finally it is veteran singer LR Eswari who recorded the “Munni Badnam Hui” Tamil version “Kalasala” along with T Rajendar for STR’s Osthi the remake of Salman Khan’s Dabangg.Thaman has recorded the catchy track. There were earlier reports that Shruthi Haasan will be crooning this item song. STR told sify.com: “Kalasala song is going to be a rocker.

Simbu on a Break

On a rapid pace, Simbu managed to shoot some portions for his other film ‘Vettai Mannan’ as well.With his ‘Osthi’ talkie portions completed within short span of time, the actor has flown down to London for a small break and it looks like he may shoot some pending portions for ‘Poda Podi’ as well.
