Simbu croons for 'Osthi,' tries Tirunelveli dialect

Simbu, who is currently shooting for 'Osthi,' is concentrating on his look for a fit and sculpted physique and is believed to be hitting the gym regularly for looking original in a cop's attire. He is also believed to have asked the original hero Salman Khan to shed a few tips for maintaining a fit body.There are confirmed reports now that Simbu has written and sung a song for 'Osthi.' The actor is believed to have dedicated the song to all the wives because the lyrics in the song suggest so. Simbu has wielded the mic in most of the films that he has starred and almost all the songs have been chartbusters. It is just a matter of time to see if this song would click as well.
Richa will be starring opposite Simbu in this film with supporting roles from Revathi, VTV Ganesh, Jithen Ramesh and Madhu Shalini. There are reports that suggest that Simbu is learning the nuances of Tirunelveli dialect. In the original too Salman has delivered a gruff Bihari accent. It looks like Simbu is also leaving no stones unturned and is looking at all perspectives to make the remake mint gold at the box-office. Check out this image from the sets of 'Osthi,' and tell us what you feel about STR's latest avatar...

Will he or will he not…? Will she or will she not…?

Well these will be some of the many questions swimming in the minds of people in love. Though you love a person dearly they might be the ones you pick up a quarrel with every now and then. Well these seem to be just what will form the core for the upcoming romantic film ‘Doo.’ Two of the songs in the film have been crooned by TR and STR, and this happens to be a special feature.

Simbu has crooned a melody in the film. The actor has revealed that there is also a remix version for the song. Whereas, TR has sung an out-and-out kuthu song. With Simbu and TR at the mic we can definitely expect some foot-tapping music and hit gaana tunes, we guess!

Simbu sings for Mambattiyan-2

Simbu a.k.a. STR is going guns at the moment. What with a recent hit (Vaanam) under his belt, the singer also seems to be taking his singing career seriously. Simbu has belted out a number for songs in his films as well as other movies.

'Mambattiyan-2' is getting readied with Prashanth playing the lead. The film is the remake of 'Mambattiyan' that released in 1983. Illayaraja had composed the music for the original version which released a couple of decades back. The upcoming version has been set to tune by Thaman. A song which goes like "Kattuvaliye pora ponnu..." has been crooned by Thiyagarajan. Thaman has decided to go in for a hip-hop version to suit the trend today. This hip-hop version has been crooned by Simbu.

Thaman is confident that the music of this album will do well, especially the peppy numbers which will attract the young crowd. The lyrics for all the songs have been penned by National award winning lyricist Vairamuthu.

The filming portions are over and the post-production is going on in full swing. We will let you know soon as to when Mambattiyan-2 will hit theatres.
