This is the year's best Tamil movie so far

http://www.rediff.com/movies/2008/feb/15ssanja.htm

Yeah, I haven't read the review, but glanced the bottom line it got 4 stars. I knew that from his CP, this guy has talents, he will reach the good director's list, now looks like he has done it. Go Mysskin!

My wish is that having Yuvan for his next film.

Mysskin's Anjathey is getting ready to be released on Pongal. Mysskin's previous movie 'Chithiram Pesuthadi' was a good one and hope this one comes out good too.

Judge change the title. Its Aaruvathu Sinam

It is the other way around.

------------------------

Aruvathu Sinam’ is now ‘Anjathe’

Naren in ‘Anjathe’.

Director Mishkin of ‘Chithiram Pesuthadi’ fame, and producer V. Ithesh Jabak, who recently produced ‘Nan Avanillai’ have joined hands to produce ‘Anjathe’.

The title of the film was originally ‘Aruvathu Sinam’. Besides Naren, ‘Anjathe’ will also star Prasanna and Ajmal.

Naren plays a police officer. “I spend nearly three hours, jogging barefoot on the sea sands and improving my bike riding and car driving skills for the film,” he said.

Oh, I just saw the promo stills sometime back. Didn't know the title change.

The trailer looks impressive. Only Naren comes in it, Prasanna was not there and his character is being kept secret.

Anjathey: A confident show
IndiaGlitz [Thursday, December 20, 2007]

The rainy evening set a right mood to enjoy good music and the song that was screened on the occasion did not disappoint.

It was the function, held at Four Frames Preview Theatre in Chennai, on December 19, to mark the audio launch of 'Anjathey', directed by Mysskin. The highlight of the function was the amazing confidence exuded by the entire team about the outcome of the movie.

The movie introduces Ajmal, a Malayalam actor in a strong role. Ajmal attended the function and delivered a few words recalling his experience with the film.

Mysskin gave a detailed account of how he made the film. He praised the producer Hitesh Jabak for his faith in him and fullest cooperation. He also revealed that Prasanna, who dons a negative role in the movie, has done amazingly well. He went to the extent of saluting the young hero for accepting to do such a bad character at this young age.

The director expressed his gratitude to the media that helped his maiden venture 'Chithiram Pesuthadi' a super hit. He pleaded the media to extend the same support to 'Ajnathey' as well.

Leading artist Trotsky Marudu, a close friend of Mysskin, came to the function as a friendly gesture.

Most of the directors spoke on the occasion – S.A. Chandrasekar, Charan, and Kathi – highlighted the remarkable reading habit of Mysskin.

Vishal gave a hint that he would do a film with Mysskin. Dhanush said he turned down an offer by Mysskin, as he was “afraid of handling the character”.

Narain and Prasanna shared their experiences with the film. They were obviously excited and brimming with confidence. Heroine Vijayalakshmi (Chennai 600028) fame rendered a few words thanking the director.

The audio CD was released by S.A. Chandrasekar and received by Vishal. The cassette was released by Kalaipuli G. Sekaran and received by Vijayalakshmi.

Anjathey censored!

Friday, 08 February , 2008, 08:46

Mysskin�s Anjathey featuring Narain, Prasanna and sensational new boy Ajmal along with Vijayalakshmi has been cleared by the censors with a �U� certificate! In recent times it is the first film that tells the story of gangsters and cops without any blood and gore to get a �U� from the censors.

Anjathey produced by Nemichand Jabak who last made the hit film Naan Avanillai is said to be an edge of the seat action thriller which takes a look at the mean streets of Chennai. It is a cat and mouse game between, an encounter specialist and a cunning gangster told in a racy manner by Mysskin.

There is a good buzz around Anjathey and all areas have been sold out as the film gets ready for release on Valentine day weekend on Feb 14.

Narain's acid test!

Anjathey releasing this Friday (Feb 15) is Myyskin- Narain combo's big test at the box-office. A lot of people in Kollywood feel that their Chithiram Pesuthadi worked only because of the Gana Ulganathan song Vazhameenum and the marketing muscle of Oscar Ravichandran.

Myyskin wants to prove that his script and casting was responsible for the success of their last film. So he has avoided Gana Ulganathan this time and sung a song himself, Kannadasan Karaikudi and picturised it on Narain and new boy Ajmal Ameer on a set depicting a Chennai TASMAC bar shop. The director feels the song is one of the best picturised bar songs and is sure to top the charts.

Narain says he spent almost a year with Myyskin doing the script and making the film. Says the actor, who is hoping that the film will change his fortunes in Kollywood- Anjathey is an edge of the seat action thriller set against a backdrop of friendship, deceit, love and emotions. In the film I play a cop an encounter specialist who is on the lookout for a sleazy and cunning extortionist who is playing a cat and mouse game with me.

Prasanna plays a negative character for the first time in his career and is said to be deadly and may turn out to be the surprise packet in the film. A new guy Ajmal Ameer is being introduced by Myyskin, in a pivotal role in the film which has music by Sunder C. Babu. Vijayalakshmi is playing the girl next door and Narain's love interest.

A lot is riding on Anjathey for Myyskin, if the film clicks he will move into the A league of Tamil directors, otherwise he has to start all over again. Nemichand Jabak, the producer of the film who made Naan Avanillai with Jeevan a big hit has spent nearly Rs 4.5 crore on Anjathey for its technical expertise.

Kollywood is eagerly looking forward for the release of Anjathey, which they hope will reverse this years flop trend. Says Myyskin: Let the film release, it will speak for itself, then I will talk!

from sify


Mysskin has delivered another knock-out punch with his Anjathey. The canvass is engaging and thrilling as he is able to bring out the moods, anxieties and sheer dread of the characters due to top of the line performances from his lead actors.
Here is superior quality Tamil cinema as Mysskin's intricately crafted script and the slick execution of every sequences, make the film a treat to watch. The film avoids clichés and smashes stereotypes as it makes its journey from opening credits to the end. But a nail-biting thriller for over three hours… is way too lengthy.

The story opens in a police housing colony where Satyavan (Narain) and Kripa Shankar (Ajmal Ameer) both sons of police head constables (M.S.Bhaskar and Livingston) are childhood friends. They are thick friends but totally different in principles and attitude towards life. Satyavan is a happy-go-lucky irresponsible guy who spends time drinking, loitering with friends and getting into petty fights. Kripa on the other hand is serious, soft-spoken and has a big dream to join the police force through hard work and discipline. He is encouraged by his sister Uttara (Vijayalakshmi), who feels that Satya is the only bad influence in his life, as comparisons are made between the two by the residents of the colony.

One day Satya is badly humiliated by his dad for spoiling a festival day in the colony when he gets into a fight with Daya (Prasanna) a sinister guy who is running a kidnapping racket with a small time mechanic and mobster Logu (Pandirajan). Satya after this ego deflating act from his dad decides to join the force by using the clout of his uncle, a personal assistant of a powerful minister. Both Kripa and Satya appear for the police Sub-Inspectors (SI) examination, and using his clout Satya is selected while Kripa fails. This triggers the motive and twist in the tale as inevitably Kripa drifts away from his best friend and turns out to be his most bitter foe.

Meanwhile after joining the force, there is a gradual transformation in Satya who becomes more human, righteous and duty conscious in his approach to life. He fights the system from within, and soon Uttara secretly starts admiring him as he becomes her role model which irks Kripa. At the same time Daya the cunning psychopath holds the police force to ransom as he kidnaps young girls from rich families for money and also rapes them so that they will remain silent.

The police top brass set up an encounter cell under a cop (Ponvannan) to hunt down the kidnappers, and Satya is also drafted into the team. Daya who is now on the run recruits Kripa knowing that he is on a revenge romp whose only aim is to see the fall of his friend. Now it is a cat-and-mouse game between Satya and Daya who uses Kripa as a pawn, leading to a stunning nail biting climax on the outskirts of the city in a sugar cane field.

The biggest strength of Anjathey is its perfect casting, as every actor is just right for the role and you couldn’t find better actors to fill out these roles. Mysskin introduces new guys like a one- armed guy called Kuruvi (played by a former stuntman Bomb Ramesh, who lost an arm while shooting an explosion scene for a film) a go-between Satya and Kripa, he is terrific. Prasanna is a revelation as the deadly, charismatic but ruthless and terrifying psychopathic rapist Daya (the weird wig is a minus), Pandirajan without his moustache as the humorous accomplice of Daya is a scream and provides some funny moments. And Ajmal makes a promising debut; he’s clearly an actor to look out for.

Vijayalakshmi is here to stay as the sweet and lovable girl next door. Ponvannan, M.S Bhaskar and Livingstone are all aptly cast in supporting roles. Narain is astonishingly agile and lives the role of Satyavan. His drunken act and subtle comedy in the first half, the anguish, frustration and guilt giving way to tears in the second half bring out the actor in him. It is Narain’s show from the first frame to the last, a performance that will remain in your hearts to remember and savor.

Technically, the film is top class and exquisitely photographed by Mahesh Muthusamy, using a lot of top angle crane shots with the climax in the sugar cane field being picture perfect. Sunder.C.Babu’s music is peppy especially the first song in the bar Kannadasan … and the title song. To give credit where it’s due, director Mysskin delivers on both style and content and he has not shown any excessive blood and gore scenes in a story of police encounters, rapes, kidnapping and other nefarious activities.

If there’s one problem with the film is it’s too long, at 3 hours 10 minutes and as a result, at times taxes the viewers patience especially the long drawn out climax, scenes in the first half to establish the hero being reformed and sentiments injected into the plot. This makes even the unpredictability becomes monotonous in a film which has very few commercial elements and is a bit classy.

Despite this minor hiccups Anjathey is unmissable. It is a sparkling, fresh and innovative film from Mysskin, makes for recommended viewing.

Verdict- Good
