Poda Podi - Simbu and Varalakshmi

Actor-Politician dad Sarath Kumar is all supportive of his daughter Varalakshmi's debut in Kollywood. Even though Sarath Kumar has given his daughter full freedom and believes that she is a mature and intelligent girl who can handle anything on the sets of Poda Podi with Silambarasan, he is still being a typical father and being a protective dad. If sources are to be believed, Sarath has talked to all his close friends in the industry, to watchout for his daughter and inform him immediately if, she is into any kind of problem. Silambarasan who heard this is said to be spending time only on his laptop keeping himself away from the outside world to avoid problems. The pooja of the Silambarasan – Varalakshmi starrer is scheduled to be held on August 15th in Toronto. The movie is to be directed by Vigesh siva and the cinematography is by Nirav Shah.

The flamboyant Sharat Kumar is busy with his serious preparations to get into politics, but at home, his elder daughter, Varalakshmi is all set to make her film debut. Her choice of film however has raised a few eyebrows. The trouble-prone Simbu is now getting ready to launch yet another new film of his. He had been accepting quite a number of offers in recent past, but none of the films has hit the theatres.There was one which was almost complete, but he ended up creating some misunderstanding with the heroine and has now forced the producer to bring in a new one and is now reshooting more than 40% of the film again with the new heroine! This time, he has accepted the offer to star in a film named 'Poodaa Poodi'. It is in this film that Varalakshmi is going to make her debut in. the film's director had first approached Sharat Kumar to get his consent. He said that he had no objections if his daughter was willing. The title might not be the final one as its still not sure if they will use the title Thiru Pooda and Thirumathi Poodi. Another possible title is Mr Poda Mrs Podi.

Silambarasan, who is currently touring Canada to finalize locations for his forthcoming film 'Thiru Podaa, Thirumathi Podi' – the Dandanakka Couple, called on Ran Stevenson, the Mayor of Olivia to seek his cooperation. According to the director of the film Vignesh Shiva (a school buddy of Simbu), the Mayor was surprised to know that Simbu is a multifaceted personality and assured his cooperation with the shoot of 'Thiru Poda, Thirumathi Podi'. When asked about the film, Shiva said, 'this is not a Simbu kind of action flick, but a totally different script which would require a lot of effort from him.' Jointly produced by Gemini Film Circuit and Shanaya Telefilms (P) Ltd. (producers of Hindi films 'Champion' and 'Supari'), the film commences shooting from the 15th of August for a period of 60 days in just one schedule in its entirety in Canada. Grapevine has it that Sarathkumar's daughter Varalakshmi would be introduced as heroine. Dharan is scoring the music for the film.

Recently Simbu was in Toronto where he met the Mayor (see pics) and got special permission to shoot the entire film there. Varalakshmi is a trained Ballet and Salsa dancer and industry buzz is that she was so apt for the role of a dancer born and brought up in Toronto that the makers have convinced her to do the role. Simbu will have a new-look with short gelled hair and for a change he will be dancing fighting or mouthing punchlines in the film. Music will be scored by Dharan and camera will be handled by Nirav Shah. The producers are also planning to have the muhurat of the film in Toronto to make it different.
