    The first look poster of legendary director Mani Ratnam’s soon to be launched romantic drama, Kaatru Veliyidai, has been released this morning to a thumping response from his loyal fans. Going by the poster, the film promises to be a breezy romantic affair, as the title suggests.

    Meanwhile, the unit of Kaatru Veliyidai has already reached Mani’s favorite shooting destination, Ooty, yesterday and preparations are on in full swing for the first schedule, which will kick-start tomorrow. The schedule will last for 40 days and the unit will then move on to Kashmir for yet another crucial schedule.

    Tamil star Karthi and Bollywood beauty Aditi Rao Hydari are playing the main leads in this film. Mani’s regulars, AR Rahman and Sreekar Prasad, will take care of the music and editing departments.

    Getting an opportunity to act in a Mani Ratnam film is a dream for many actors across the country. Two actor brothers in Tamil have had that rare opportunity. The star duo is none other than Suriya and Karthi.

    In 2003, Suriya starred in Mani Ratnam’s Yuva. Incidentally, his brother Karthi’s first brush with films was through Yuva, in which he worked as an Assistant Director to Mani Ratnam. 13 years later, Karthi is acting in Mani’s just launched romantic drama, Kaatru Veliyidai.

    Yesterday, the film’s first look poster was unveiled and expressing his happiness over his doting brother’s achievement, Suriya tweeted, “My brothers dream film I can say! As an Asst to Mani sir in 2003,as a hero now!so looking forward!!#KaatruVeliyidai”. That’s some brotherly love indeed!

    It is a known fact that Mani Ratnam has already started filming his upcoming project with Karthi and Adi Rao Hydari. Latest update reveals that Mani has roped in Vipin Sharma for an important role.

    Vipin Sharma is the same man who has done films like Aamir Khan’s Taare Zameen Par. Karthi will be seen in a all new look in this film which will be mostly shot in Shimla.

    Aditi Rao plays a girl from the hilly area and Karthi is a pilot in the film.

    Legendary auteur Mani Ratnam is currently shooting a romantic drama titled Kaatru Veliyidai. The film features Tamil star Karthi and Bollywood actress Aditi Rao Hydari.

    It is already reported that Karthi underwent pilot training for his role. On the other hand, Aditi is taking Tamil lessons to perfect her diction and dialogue delivery, and none other than Mani Ratnam himself is helping her learn the language.

    Apparently, Aditi has been learning Tamil for the past one month under Mani’s guidance in Chennai and Mani is bettering her accent and intonation, which in turn will help Aditi give authentic reactions.

    Last year, Mani Ratnam’s Tamil-Telugu bilingual featuring the likes of Karthi, Nani, Nitya Menen and Saiyami Kher etc made headlines nonstop. Tipped to be a revenge drama, this film was later put on back burner by the legendary director who later scripted a romantic drama.

    With Mani kick-starting the shooting of Kaatru Veliyidai recently, everyone thought that he snubbed the bilingual revenge drama forever. However, in her latest interview to a leading English news daily, Saiyami Kher revealed that the project is very much on and that it might go on floors towards the end of this year.

    We will however have to wait until Mani, who takes ample time in-between each project, will resume the project within such a short gap.

    Kaatru Veliyidai, Mani Ratnam’s next directorial is said to be moving at a brisk clip at Ooty. The film features Karthi and Aditi Rao in the lead roles. Ravi Varma takes care of the cinematography while Mani Ratnam’s regular AR Rahman heads the music department.

    As reported earlier Karthi would be playing a pilot in this film. In fact, it was said that he was asked to take up flying lessons to make himself prepared for the character.

    Now the latest we hear is that legendary actor Delhi Ganesh would be playing the role of Indian Army Colonel in the film. He would be Karthi’s grandfather-in-law and his portions are expected to be shot from this weekend.

    61-year-old director Mani Ratnam is still one of the fastest working directors in the country. The legendary director is currently filming an intense romantic drama titled Kaatru Veliyidai, and the pace at which Mani is completing the shooting is leaving his team stunned.

    Already, Mani has wrapped up a crucial schedule in Ooty. The second schedule will kick-start in Chennai tomorrow and the team will then head to Kashmir to can several crucial scenes. A major portion of the film’s talkie part will be wrapped up by August end.

    At this pace, Mani may well complete the entire shooting process by September and release the film during Dasara season. The film has Karthi and Aditi Rao Hydari playing the main leads and AR Rahman scoring the tunes.
