Kollywood’s
summer kicks off this Friday.
It is delayed heavily, thanks
to the IPL. And, first off the
block is the Vishal-Shriya starrer
Thoranai. What do you expect
from a Vishal movie? Loads of
entertainment and action; this
is the mix that has sustained
Vishal in his few years at Kollywood.
This time too he will remain
faithful to it, but there is
going to be a lot more emphasis
on comedy. Yes, there was some
comedy in Malaikottai, but precious
little of that was done by Vishal.
In Thoranai, we will see Vishal
himself trying his hand at the
lighter stuff in a lot of |

scenes. Of course, he will be in the company
of some experienced comedians which includes
Santhanam and M.S. Bhaskar.
Thoranai is the story of a man (Vishal)
who comes to the city from his village to
find out his long-lost elder brother and
reunite him with the family. But he is not
able to do it easily and keeps running into
trouble and there are certain people who
disturb him often. How he gets over all
the challenges to reach his goal is what
Thoranai is all about. In this, we have
Shriya who comes as Vishal’s lady
love. The stills and promos have promised
a lot of glamour; but there will be no vulgarity,
promise the crew of the movie. Prakash Raj
plays an important role in Thoranai. But
you can gauge that comedy is the highlight
of Thoranai from the fact that in spite
of the presence of artistes like Prakash
Raj and Shriya, the highlights of the film
are said to be the scenes involving Santhanam
and Vishal. There is a particular scene
where Vishal appears as Lord Rama and Santhanam
as Hanuman, which is sure to bring the house
down.
The director of Thoranai, Saba Ayyappan
makes his debut with the movie. It is easy
to see why he chose comedy to make his debut
with; he has been an assistant of Viji (Vellithirai)
and Bhoopathy Pandian (Thiruvilayaadal,
Malaikottai). Music by Mani Sharma has received
its share of attention, but has not yet
managed to create any serious waves.
Thoranai is a crucial film for Vishal as
he looks to come back after the Sathyam
debacle. It is also important for Kollywood
as it marks the beginning of the delayed
summer. A lot of films are set to release
in the coming weeks and everyone would love
to see Thoranai get the season off to a
good start.
