TOP 10 NEWS OF THE WEEK (OCT 23 - OCT 29)

Vijay Sethupathi and Gayathrie starrer, Ranjit Jeyakodi directorial Mellisai has gone for a title change. It will henceforth be called as Puriyadha Pudhir. It has to be recalled that, this is also the name of the cult classic of 1990 which was directed by KS Ravikumar and produced by R B Choudary for Super Good Films.
 

Confirming about this, Ranjit says, “Yes, we have changed the title to Puriyadha Pudhir. It is purely for business purposes. Titles like Moodupani and Netrikann were suggested. Finally, we zeroed in on Puriyadha Pudhir which again will be apt for the story as the film is a thriller. In fact the film was titled as Moodu Pani first but we later changed to Mellisai. And now, we tried for Moodu Pani and Netri Kann but we could not get those titles. We approached Supergood film RB Choudary sir who was kind enough to give the title to us”.


As regards the release of the film, Ranjit says that it will mostly be a November release. He furthers, “We would also be releasing the trailer of the film soon”.


It has to be recalled that JS Satish Kumar of JSK Film Corporation has bought the worldwide release rights of this Vijay Sethupathi starrer.
