A fast paced, action packed commercial entertainer is all set to hit the theaters this weekend; Aadu Puli. The title gives you an inkling about the nature of the movie and director Vijay Prakash has also acknowledged that his debut venture is an out and out commercial which looks to entertain from the word go. It is about one big joint family and the troubles that come to haunt the peaceful and happy life there. However, it will not be like any of the umpteen other films that have been made on this premise, claims the director.

Aadu Puli will be a major test for Aadhi- the commercial hero. He ventured into the commercial-family-action genre with Ayyanar and continues his tryst through Aadu Puli. Ayyanar had received some good reviews but could not translate in to a big theatrical success that would have cemented Aadhi’s place in the commercial heroes list. Poorna too will be looking to take her value a few notches higher after a relatively quiet 2010. However, Aadu Puli is not just about Aadhi and Poorna. The film boasts of an array of experienced artistes who will definitely be of great strength. Prabhu, K.R.Vijaya, Nizhalgal Ravi, Ravichandran, Anupama Kumar etc. constitute the strong supporting cast.

Music for Aadu Puli has been scored by Sundar C Babu whose recent release Thoonga Nagaram has come in for appreciation. He has composed nine numbers for Aadu Puli which definitely means that the director has given a lot of importance to music in his film. Producer Michael S Rayappan for his part has been giving the film quite a bit of healthy promotion through the media which will stand it in good stead. After all, the theatres are now buzzing with films like Yudham Sei and Payanam, both of which have garnered lot of appreciation. Also add to this the fact that Gautham Menon’s Nadunisi Naaygal will also be releasing on Friday, Aadu Puli will need all the publicity that it can get. Go enjoy the action, thrills, romance and sentiments of Aadu Puli in theatres from the 18th of February.
