Doing bhangra to Tamil tune

Eloping couples used to be the staple of Tamil and Malayalam films but no more 8230; now films revolve around young lovers who win over both sets of parents and overcome obstacles through love, patience and care. Simran8217;s parents Punjabi actors Yograj and Neena gradually take to the Tamil boy. The script is based on a short story written by Devi Bharti and is loosely connected to a real incident.

The day8217;s shooting was a wedding reception to which Murali8217;s friend in Chandigarh takes him to get a glimpse of Punjabi culture. And he sings out his heart there. With Deva8217;s music, the song sung by A.R. Rehman-find Mano has the material in it to be a sure hit.

The film is the sixth production of Shivashakti Movie-Makers whose previous venture Kadal Kottai had bagged the national awards in many categories, including direction. From here, the unit moves to Amritsar to give the Tamil audience a quot;reelquot; feel of real Punjab in this bilingual venture.
