| Star
marriages: Who’s next in line? |
|
And
finally it is over! What? The Surya
Jyothika marriage of course. The press
will now have to look for other matters,
which can provide the news to fill
up the space. For almost three years
the Surya-Jyothika combine provided
enough and more for the gossip mills
and page3. |
|
|
The speculations, acceptances,
denials and every minor detail
of the couple was blown up in
media space, so much so that
almost the whole of Tamil Nadu
began to look expectantly towards
the marriage of the couple.
As the convention of the media
goes ‘married couples
do not make any news’
new avenues for gossip have
to be found out. There seems
to be no dearth of such sources
for the media and it seems that
both the reporters and the readers
are going to have their plates
full. |

Selvaraghavan
weds Sonia Agarwal
Hot on the list of gossip
providers are the star couple
of director Selvaraghavan
and Sonia Agarwal. Though
formal announcements have
not yet been made to the effect
that the two have made any
kind of decision, it only
seems to be a formality. It
is as if the entire industry
knows and has accepted the
fact that the couple are more
or less sure to enter into
wedlock sooner rather than
later. The interesting thing
here seems to be that the
families of both Selvaraghavan
and Sonia seem to have had
no objection at all to this
relationship.

The
‘king size’ event
Actually, things seem to have taken
a definite course since as early as
the days of Kadhal Kondaen and surprisingly
it has been Selvaraghavan who has
been putting off the wedding, which
would have otherwise been imminent.
The budding director seems to have
been intent upon establishing himself
as one of the top directors of Kollywood
before entering into wedlock. Now,
it seems that pressure from all sides
has finally got Selvaraghavan to agree
upon a fairly proximal date. |
|
| |
The
grapevine is that the couple
has already got engaged in a
very private ceremony at the
actress’ native place.
But one should also agree that
Selvaraghavan has succeeded,
at least partially in making
himself one of the most sought
after in Kollywood. The only
things that are now waiting
to happen are the official conformation
from both sides and the actual
ceremony that is touted to take
place as early as December.
The ceremony, when it takes
place is expected to be as star
studded as the wedding of Surya
and Jyothika. |
|
|
The
reason being obvious, the family of
the groom being almost entirely in
the film field and the undoubted participation
of the superstar Rajni and his family
in the ceremony. What else would one
need to make an event ‘king
size.’Continued
