Kollywood Hotshots

The film which was long pending to take off, that shifted hands from Ajith, Kamal to finally Surya, is a period flick set ion 30's. The film we hear would showcase Surya in his 40's look. (reminds you of Vaaranam Aayiram Surya). Surya will play a romantic detective in the film.

Industry insiders reveal that Pranitha who is very much excited in grabbing this offer, had to turn down a Sundar C's film since she had to give away bulk call sheets for this Gautham movie.

The film is expected to go on floors for shoot by early 2013, as both Gautham and Surya are busy with their respective projects. Both Gautham Menon and Surya are hoping to create the magic that their earlier film their Varanam Ayiram had done.

The reason for the delay in release is that Saguni is being reshot after theproducers saw the double positive of the film. Scenes featuring Salim Ghouse who plays the main villain are being reshot, as it has not come out well. Salim has combination scenes with Karthi which lacks the punch.

The producers Dream Warriors have roped in Prakash Raj to replace Salim Ghouse and reshoot the scenes. Prakash Raj as villain is definitely more appealing in a mass film than Ghouse. Prakash is being paid a whopping salary for his 10 day ‘Tatkal’ dates.
The buzz in trade sources is that Saguni will now be postponed to May end  or June first week, due to this change in villain.
