Selvaraghavan goes for Rahman
IndiaGlitz [Saturday, October 28, 2006]


Selvaraghavan always does things at his own pace. But these days the
pace is picking up. Selvaraghavan is now giving final touches to his
Telugu movie starring Venkatesh and Trisha.

Then he is supposed to do a movie titled Idhu Maalai Nerathu Mayakkam
starring Suriya's sibling Karthi and Kadhal fame Sandhya in lead role.
The movie would be for his White Elephants production house.

Close on the heels of Idhu Maalai Nerathu Mayakkam, Selvaraghavan will
be off to Bollywood.

Yes, he is venturing to direct a Hindi movie. Selvaraghavan's Hindi
movie would be a remake of his 7G Rainbow Colony, which was a
blockbuster in both Tamil and Telugu.

Raadan Media in association with U TV will produce the movie. For the
first time, A R Rahman will team up with Selvaraghavan.

Selvaraghavan had hitherto combined with Yuvan Shankar Raja for his
movies. And almost of them have been musical hits. Their combination
is one of the best in South India. But when it came to pan-Indian
appeal, Rahman is the best bet and so Selvaraghavan has naturally gone
for him.

The Hindi movie will commence shortly. The candidates for the hero's
role are being short-listed.
