‘Four things come not back, the spoken word, the sped arrow, past life and the neglected opportunity’. Director Prabhu concentrates on the potency of the spoken word in Laadam set to release this Friday. Whatever you say can come round like a boomerang to get you when you least expect it to, discovers the protagonist of the movie after something that he says threatens to mess up his life. The lead character is being played by debutante Aravindhan. The female lead is the Telugu sensation Charmi who has a few Tamil films to her credit some years back.

The span of the story is just 16 days, consequently the Telugu version of Laadam has been titled 16 Days. Because of its set time frame, we can expect a racy narrative from the director. Though the look and feel of the film has suggested an action thriller of sorts with goons and gangsters, we do not have a concrete idea about the genre of Laadam.Kota Srinivasa Rao will be seen as the villain in Laadam. One knows that given a good role, this veteran can really turn in a power packed performance. Others in the cast are Manorama, Citti Babu and Nellai Siva. Dharan’s music has received a reception that can be termed as ‘not bad’ and might serve as a strong point to the movie. But most importantly, Laadam is being looked forward to because it has given hints of being a bit different from the usual fare, also because it is being handled by Prabhu Solomon who had managed to garner healthy appreciation with his debut flick Lee.

Starring: Sarath Kumar, Namitha, Sandhya Shetty, Farzana

Direction: Dinesh Kumar Music: VidyasagarProduction: RSK Pictures
This week it is Namitha again at the box office and that makes it the third time within a span of one month. This time around, the lady is paired with Sarath Kumar. The movie is Sarath Kumar’s magnum opus 1977. Double roles are not new to this actor. He has perhaps donned the most number of double roles in the film industry and his specialty is father-son duos. This formula has given him many a hit over his long career and Sarath is back at it

again when his hold at the box office seems to be waning a bit.1977 will not be any routine double act by Sarath Kumar; we will be seeing him in 6 different get ups, with three different heroines with the story taking us from India to Malaysia over two eras. In fact, 1977 might be one of the most expensive films in Sarath Kumar’s career. Though much has not been revealed about its storyline, we know for sure that the movie will be a thriller with plenty of high adrenalin pumping actions and liberal doses of glamour provided by the lead ladies.The highlight of the film includes the introduction song shot with more than 500 junior artistes and dancers, the power-packed gun fight between Sarath Kumar and 40 baddies, a chase sequence that features some of Malaysia’s best known stunt artistes, a climax that has over 100 Malaysian police vehicles and personnel that was shot for 11 consecutive day and nights close to the Petronas twin towers. 1977 also includes a song that was shot lavishly on a set that was erected at a cost of Rs. 40 lakhs.Literally, the producer has not spared any expense to make the film a rich and engaging fare. Mumbai-based model Sandhya Shetty makes her debut and is set to add to the oomph factor. Farzana too will make her presence felt, not to forget Namitha who has an introduction scene devoted to her. Sarath Kumar has made it clear that the film is purely for entertainment purpose and hence it has no political overtones. The movie is a bilingual with a simultaneous Telugu release.Scripted and directed by Dinesh Kumar with music by Vidyasagar, 1977 looks good to end Sarath Kumar’s hit drought at the box office. We will know this Friday.
