Surya in double roles as Father and Son

While the world awaits the release of Vaaranam Aayiram with bated breath, its makers have decided to dub the film in Telugu. Vaaranam Aayiram, starring Surya, of Ghajini fame with a galaxy of heroines (Simran, Sameera Reddy, Divya Spandana and Trisha), is directed by Gautham Menon and produced by Aascar Ravichandran under his ubiquitous Aascar Films.

In Telugu, this 2-year long project will be titled as Surya s/o Krishnan. Though rumoured to be Gautham Menon"s life story, the makers have said that this is a work of pure fiction. Gautham Menon, who directed Kaaka Kaaka, which was dubbed in Telugu as Gharshana, is expected to give another winner. Surya has a dream role where he plays both father and son. One part of the movie is Kirshnan"s (the father) flashback and how he meets his wife, Malini (Simran). The other part of course, follows Surya junior"s life as he meets the women in his life and learns some love lessons.

Composed by Harris Jayaraj, the Telugu audio will be released on Vijaydasmi eve by SVR Media in a glittering ceremony and all the Telugu film industry royalty have been invited to this much vaunted event. The Tamil audio released last month has already been declared a hit and is a mix of genres from classical to modern compositions.
