Kamal's 'Marmayogi' to kickstart soon

'Marmayogi' is garnering every bit of attention ever since it was announced and the latest news is that the film will start shooting in October in Mumbai. The film will be directed by Kamal and stars Trisha, Shreya, Hema Malini and Venkatesh apart from the versatile actor himself. The film is to be made in Tamil, English, Telugu and Hindi simultaneously.

'Dasavatharam' opened across many theaters with mixed reviews but then has made it quite majestically to hundred days. Adding to this majestic appeal is the way 'Marma Yogi' is being planned.

Reports indicate that the Red Camera will be used and a Hollywood cinematographer has been roped in. Kamal and make-up are becoming synonymous these days and one can expect a flamboyant approach with this period film as well. A team of make-up specialists from Hollywood will be part of the team. A new technique called 'Spray Make-up' is being introduced to Indian Cinema with this film.

An extravagant Project Launch for the film is expected to take place in Mumbai after which shooting will commence. The team would fly to many parts of the world including Sweden and of course many parts in India. Set in the 7th century AD, 'Marmayogi' is expected to showcase a slice of life as it happened then including the diction and social themes.

Kamal Haasan is known to be quite a perfectionist and with his experience, one can expect a stunning affair.

Another huge factor that has to be spot on for 'Marmayogi' is the costumes part. Being a period film authenticity will have to be maintained in order to be accepted and Gauthami has been assigned this responsibility.

Keep watching this space for more updates as the days roll on.

Tamil tution for 'Marma Yogi' Shreya and Trisha

'Marma Yogi' started off with a photo shoot at the AVM Studios in Chennai recently and Kamal Haasan, Trisha, Shreya and Hema Malini were part of it. All actors looked ravishing at the photo shoot especially because of a new form of make-up that was used. Called Spray Make-Up, this is probably the first time it is used for an Indian film.

The results were there to see as both Trisha and Shreya glowed with radiance and charm. Kamal Haasan, who has written the script, will also be directing the film. Touted to be the costliest film to ever come from India the film will be shot using the most modern Red Camera. A cinematographer and a team of make-up artists from Hollywood are expected to be part of the film.

Interestingly, some prominent actors of the film who would dub for themselves like Trisha will be trained to speak in chaste Tamil as was spoken centuries ago. Trisha has been provided with a trainer who has started coaching her in Senthamizh. Looks like the perfectionist in Kamal Haasan does not want to leave any stone unturned.

Marmayogi Trisha and Shreya

Dubbing voices are saving many a heroine. Tamil actresses are no exceptions. Since films are made with the commercial aspect in mind, no one pays attention to voices. But those who want full recognition, a dubbing voice is a bit of a drawback.

If a film has to be entered for awards, everyone must speak in their own voices. Dubbed voices are unacceptable. If Priya Mani had not spoken in her own voice in 'Paruthiveeran,' she would have missed her award.

Kamal is very alert to this. In 'Hey Ram,' he made even Shahrukh and Rani Mukherjee speak in their own voices. Asin's agrahara Tamil in 'Dasavataram' is her own voice.

In 'Marmayogi' also, everyone will dub for themselves. Even though Trisha is a Tamilian, she does not speak good Tamil. 'Marmayogi' is a historical film and the language is formal Tamil. So, Trisha is training to speak pure Tamil.

If that's the case with Trisha, what about Shreya? Kamal is not sparing her either. She is to speak in her own voice. Maybe Tamil will die a slow death!

Marmayogi in Trisha

Trisha is being taught historical Tamil with its ascent and pronunciation since the film Marmayogi is an historical film. The 100 Crore project is being produced by Pyramid Saimira and directed by Kamal Hassan. Trisha and Shreya are pairing with Kamal in the historical film. Kamal has requested these artistes to speak in their own voices instead of dubbing to order to get the real effect.

Kamal's assistants and Tamil teachers are now training Trisha to speak in immaculate Tamil. The photo session featuring Kamal and Trisha has already taken place in AVM Studios.

Marmayogi Shooting start

Kamal is Big Project Marmayogi is all set to start shooting shortly. The big budget film is expected to cost over 120 crore, reportedly the most expensive Indian movie so far. Yester years dream girl, Hema Malini has already been signed up for the film. She had graced the audio release function of Kamal Haasan's Dasavathaaram, also spelt Dasavatharam, a while back.

Trisha had already committed herself for the film with bulk dates of about 200 days, which means that she will not be able to shoot for any other movie during that time. Though this meant turning down several plum offers in Telugu and Tamil, she jumped at the chance to work with Kamal Haasan and to get the role of a life time with the great actor.

Working with Kamal is so prestigious that leading heroine Shreya has agreed to play the second heroine in Marmayogi as well. Pyramid Saimira and Kamal Haasan's Raj Kamal films will be producing this magnum opus to be directed by the maestro Kamal himself. Previously, Kamal Haasan had directed Hey Raam and Virumandi, both critically and commercially acclaimed masterpieces. The movie will reportedly be made in four languages: Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi.

The shooting is all set to kick off in Sweden in October.

Sarvam title changed?

Is Vishnuvardhan's Arya - Trisha - J.D Chakravarthy starrer Sarvam jinxed?

After two technicians died in a lift accident on the sets of the film, its villain JD got injured on the sets of the film.

The last schedule of the film has been going on in Munnar, and during a fight scene being picturised, JD got badly injured when he got hit on the chest.

Kollywood astrologers had advised Vishnu not to keep the Sarvam title for film, but he went ahead and shot.

But in a superstitious industry there are so many unexplained and unrelated incidents that occurred on the sets of the film. Now we hear the title of the film may change.
