Industry sources claim that Kamal and Ajith have agreed to appear in a song sequence in Kuselan. As everyone knows by now, Rajini does a super star role in the movie Kuselan. So we are guessing the super actors will show up as themselves in the movie.

Kamal and Ajith are part of the huge cast that have agreed to do guest roles in the movie. Other stars who have consented to act are Sathyaraj, Arjun and Vikram. Interestingly Vijay does not appear in this list. May be the movie does not fit into his 9 to 5 schedule? Alright, we are only kidding. It is believed he has been approached and neither consented to appear nor turned it down. We will keep you updated.

The telugu version will have Mahesh Babu, Chiranjeevi and Nagarjuna in it.

The recent mega hit Shahrukh’s Om Shanti Om had a similar song sequence in which many popular stars appeared. Perhaps Vasu was inspired by that movie. The one difference we notice is that the hindi version had many retired and semi-retired stars, but Kuselan will have all contemporary stars.

It looks like Vasu is treading carefully by using all tried-and-true tactics, instead of doing something original. Good luck to him.

Though the theme of Kuselan is based on Katha Parayum Pol, it is learnt that the script is changed to suit the Super Star’s early days in real life. Infact the most touching factor of this story for Rajini is that  he found many scenes of the original movie resembled his personal life. The story of Kuselan would revolve around his friends and in all probabilities the place of the story would be Bangalore.

Scheduled for release in August, the movie would see Nayanthara don the role of a co-artist and not as SS’s pair. Also, since Rajini is set to do the Super Star role itself on the screen, there is a chance for some of his fans to appear in a scene with him. Who is going to be those lucky guys-gals ?

Day in and day out the news on Kuselan just puring in. Latest is that the Director (Vasu) has approached Kamal with a request to appear in a scene in the movie. If the recent reports are to be beleived, it is not just Kamal but many leading stars of the Tamil film world are to appear together in that specific scene. Absolutely needless to mention the details of the scene which is nothing but a facilitation ceremony of the Super Star who plays the same role in the movie.

Meanwhile, the possibility of Simran’s pairing up with Pasupathy has surfaced again. Earlier it was ‘rumoured’ that Simran’s “unacceptable conditions” made director P. Vasu to look for other choices. Now it is learnt that Simran is very much interested in the project. She could not allot the required dates for ‘Kuselan’, as she was committed to act in a TV serial for Jaya TV.

Meanwhile, Vasu tried to rope in Tabu, but that couldn’t be materialized. Then he came back Simran and asked her to give just 15 days of call sheet. Simran was quite pleased to accept the offer and decided to talk with the concerned parties. It is believed that she would get the nod from the producers of the TV serial.

Rajini, it is learned, has decided to check unwarranted hype for Kuselan and has suggested the producers of Kuselan to cut down unnecessary costs and keep the entire production simple right from budget to business.

Though Sivaji was a grand success at the box office, there were noises that some section of the distributors had to face some loses due to the heavy premium they paid for the movie.

This time around Rajini wanted to be more careful not to see those things repeat. He was categorical when he said that his name shall not be used to create undue hype for Kuselan and thereby extra premium.

It is also being talked that those distributors who bit their hands for Sivaji would be given priority for Kuselan.

According to the grapevine, the hot and happening actress Ileana turned down offer to pair with Rajini in telugu version of Kuselan. However there was no official confirmation about this news story.

She acted in a film titled Kedi opposite RaviKrishna that was released a year ago. This movie turned out to be a box office disaster and she was quickly forgotten by the tamil audience. However she made it big in Tollywood.  She starred opposite Mahesh Babu in Telugu Pokkiri (the same role that Asin did in Tamil) and few other movies in Telugu.

Latest news is that Nayanatara is likely to don the role in Telugu too.  Ileana’s loss is Nayan’s gain.  Good luck Nayan!

The latest news on Kuselan is that Nayanatara might pair with Rajini in Kuselan. We reported in this website that Nayan is likely to play a role in Robot too.

In the original malayalam movie, Mamooty had a very short yet a powerful role but without a herione. It appears P.Vasu is making several changes to the script to suit Rajini’s fans. Who would want to watch a Rajini movie without a heroine?

Meanwhile industry sources revealed that Kuselan will hit floors on February 15th. Official announcements are expected sooner than that. We will keep you posted.

Simran is to pair Pasupathi in P.Vasu directed Super Star’s new film Kuselan, remake of Sreenivasan’s Malayalam super hit Katha Parayumbol.

Simran already missed out the lead role in SS’s ealier mega hit - Chanramukhi. Also, the buzz is that there will be one more heroine (not there in the Malayalam original), for the superstar. It is unlikely to be Nayanthara, as she has already done a full length heroine role in Chandramukhi and a special song sequence in Sivaji. Vasu wants a glamorous girl who is acceptable both in Tamil and Telugu, since it is being made as a bilingual, which clearly means a Bollywood babe is in the running.

Meanwhile G.V Prakash has been signed as the music director, though in the original there are only two songs! Vasu says he will keep “the spirit” of the original, but will make drastic changes in the re-make version “to provide more entertainment”

Super Star’s next movie Kuselan was launched officially yesterday at Taj Coromandel in Chennai. This movie will be made simultaneously in Tamil and Telugu. This movie will be a joint venture between Kavithalaya, Seven arts and Vaijayanthi Movies. This is the remake of the malayalam mega hit movie Karutha Payayumbol. Director of the movie P.Vasu and Kavithalaya’s K.Balachander were present during the occasion.

Interestingly the movie name ‘Kuselan’ was not mentioned during the press meet. Perhaps the name will change…? Also other artists and technicians were not announced and they are expected to be announced after Jan 18th. Just hang in there…

Rajini’s next movie has been named Kuselan. This is the movie that he does for P.Vaasu for KB’s Kavithalaya Banner. More details can be seen here:
