11 Feb 10 Abhinaya: a performer against all odds
It is said that you can see a person’s soul by looking into their eyes. Gestures can convey far more than what words can. And this is more true in the case of 19 year old Abhinaya, whose name means ‘to perform’ and she is a performer, an actress. And what is special about this youngstser? One might ask. Abhinaya has worked against all odds and overcome her disabilities to become an actress. Abhinaya is deaf and mute by birth.

03 Jan 10 Avatar smashes $1bn box office speed record
Distributors 20th Century Fox say it has earned more than $350m (£217m) in the US and more than $670m (415m) in the rest of the world in only 17 days.
The 3D science fiction blockbuster was directed by James Cameron, who also made Titanic, the best selling movie of all time.
The latest figures make Avatar already the fourth-biggest film ever made.
Ahead of it are Titanic ($1.8bn; £1.1bn), The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King ($1.12bn; £695m) and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest ($1.07bn; £664m).
Avatar – about a disabled marine who infiltrates a race of giant blue aliens – combines live action with digitally-enhanced performances.
It was reportedly the most expensive film ever made, with a budget of at least $300m (£186m).
Expensive tickets
“This is like a freight train out of control,” said 20th Century Fox distribution executive Bert Livingston. “It just keeps on going.”
“I think everybody has to see Avatar once, even people who don’t normally go to the movies, they’ve heard about it and are saying, ‘I have to see it’,” he said. “Then there are those people seeing it multiple times.”
Avatar has now reached most parts of the globe. It opened in China on Saturday and is due to reach Italy – its final market – on 15 January.
The huge box office takings are partly down to the higher cost of tickets for 3D performances, says the BBC’s Peter Bowes in Los Angeles.
But with Hollywood entering its traditional slow season, with few big films due for release, Avatar is likely to dominate the box office for several more weeks, he adds.

“When we were pushed, the batsmen came up with some outstanding performances, and the bowler got wickets to put the opposition under pressure.”

04 Dec 09 in big trouble!
Soundarya Rajinikanth’s Ocher Studios produced Goa is in deep trouble now. Directed by Venkat Prabhu, the producer is not able to release the film on her superstar father’s birthday. The Madras High Court has passed an interim order not to release the film till December 11, in a case filed by a Chennai based financier against the film.
According to the petition submitted by Varun Maniyan, Soundarya had taken a loan of Rs 1.60 crore from him, of which Rs 1.10 crore was given from office funds and the remaining Rs 50 lakh drawn from his personal fund.
In his petition Manian says that at the time of taking a loan Soundarya had signed only a promisory note and had not signed a loan bond. However Ocher had written to him acknowledging the receipt of the loan and to pay interest at 24 percent. Now as per Manian’s lawyer, she is not keeping her promise on the repayment of the loan
.
Now Varun is forced to move to the court and get back his loan, as Ocher Studio’s Goa is getting ready for a Pongal release. The Madras High Court has stayed the release of the film till December 11 and ordered to issue notices to Soundarya Rajini and Latha Rajini.
