acting'a vittu thallunga,

Direction - he has some stuff in him ( eg - Vallavan - leave story, self-praising dialogues etc ) the way of taking a scene is really good, as i said previously, if he concentrates on story and screenplay, he can shine :P hmm...so is this movie also being directed by him. and is the story his.

What ARR did with Tottaal Poomalarum is a remake. Same lyrics, different tune.

oru pEttila, ARR adha re-music'nu sonnaaru kEkka + paakka romba nallaa irukkum :P

other than this song, Ponmagal vandhaal from ARR is very good

The soundtrack of Silambattam was released on October 20, 2008. The background score has been composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja along with five melodious songs. Already before the audio launch, there were released three preview songs of the film 'Nallamdhana' – the remix of the evergreen classic song from the film 'Thillanamohanambal', 'Silambattam', a typical hero-glorification song and 'Where is the Party' a peppy number with mischief as the backdrop have been set, which were going well at the leading FM stations in Chennai. The songs from the albums were released to four leading FM stations in Chennai, with one song per station, in attempt to popularize it five days before the official launch.

I heard that Veerachamy is better than kaalai

[Slonopotam845]

@ grouchou , Simbu is a very talented actor and proof is manmadhan and Thotti jaya.

But i don't know many directors use him as a big headache!!!


Silambattam also looks like a very commercial venture. Hope he does a neat job :P

[Paul Bunyan]

Voted YES...
Because he is coming as a THALA fan in this movie...
Athukkave movie paakkanum....(Evlo mokkaiya irunthalum...)

[Ifroham4]

I heard that Veerachamy is better than kaalai

Few weeks ago, I made a masochistic attempt to watch Veerasamy…because I have become too narrow minded that I am scared to watch Tamizh films other than of my favourite stars. Maybe the movie compartment of my brain need a stretch.

Needless to say I lasted only forty minutes, after which I don’t know…maybe I knocked myself down unconscious (ala Madhan’s dad in MMMKR)…it’s all a blur.

AA, yes, I’ve heard that Simbhu is very talented…he is a great writer too, and a lyricist (and humble enough to include in the lyric that he can’t write like Valee…thanks Simbhu, truth is nobody can).


At the same time I hear lots of off camera antics that is, in my extremely humble opinion, going to stunt his growth. Let’s see what happens to him…good talents should not go to waste.

I agree. Someone's personal habits also affect their career. Hope he fine tunes himself and doesn't make a mess again :P

[Lt_Apple]

Macha macha sung by Ilayaraja is a good melody in this album.

However there is a very catchy number called "WHERE IS THE PARTY".

Yuvan has mixed western with Local Chennai slang gaana


Thamizh Endra Naan is usual Simbu intro stuff.

The remixes are done neatly. Nalamdhaana Remix is cool though the lyrics has been tampered a lot!!

Vechukava unamatum is a kamal kaasan song i guess .

[Raj_Copi_Jin]

Vechukava unamatum is a kamal kaasan song i guess .

What!!! This song too? Its a song for Rajini in Nallavanukku Nallavan, I think. Known for two reasons:

1. First time KJJ doing a fast pace number
2. Rajini and the heroine are draped with colourful light bulbs. Anthakkalattukkey athu romba too much.

Oh Mr.Rajinikanth Songa

Yes groucho070 , there was even an article in behindwoods which carried the news that simbu too is wearing light bulbs all over his body for this dance

This song has been sung by SIMBU himself in the album!!!

NOV, Orambo was done onscreen by Suthakar...so transition from Suthakar to Sundar C. doesn't look bad.

But an iconic song from Rajini, remade for Simbhu. No further arguments, your honour!.

(Can't the industry people get this whole concept of "remix" right? What they are referring to is either a cover version or a remake, not a remix!!!)

[Paul Bunyan]

hmm...remixes have become a part and parcel of any film today.

[Ifroham4]

leo ,

thevai illama neengala vaaya kuduthu ajitha ilukadheenga

Billa was done totally in Ajith's style!!!

Our Simbu mimics Rajini too often!!!

[Peptobismol]

Infact Ajith's BILLA became a style statement , simbu is donning a similar get up in SILAMBATTAM

It also reflected in MY NAME IS BILLA Song running in background in KAALAI :P



Does he play a dual role in SILAMBATTAM looks like he does

illa baa.... yes Ajith did it in his own style no probs about it. but I just wanted to know about his opinion.
