Parthiban in Selvaraghavan

Parthiban is an intelligent man and has learnt that realism goes down well with the audience. He is almost 50 now and is aware that romancing and making prankish dialogues on screen cannot last for ever.

As a result, he is being approached with good character roles like his writer role in ‘Ammuvaagiya Naan.’ One such offer is ‘Aayirathil Oruvan.’

Directed by Selvaraghavan, the film stars Karthi, Reema Sen and Andrea.At a time when several films featuring the biggies are in the pipeline, Selvaraghavan’s Aayirathil Oruvan seems to be the most expected of the lot. Well, it has all the reason to be.
For one thing, fans and critics are eager to see Karthi’s performance in this flick after his spellbinding performance in Paruthiveeran.Selvaraghavan invited Parthiban to do an important character role in the film. Instead of insisting that he play the solo hero, Parthiban who likes to be different, accepted the role immediately.

Next year, he plans to do a film with his daughter Keertana. It is about a father-daughter relationship and could well be their real life story. Keertana is to write the film’s scenes.

It is noteworthy that she has already made a short film.

Added to this is Selvaraghavan’s reputation as a master storyteller who can spin tales poignantly to touch the hearts of the audience. Music, among other things, is what the director concentrates, for all his films have had songs that were chartbusters. And his earlier ventures with Yuvan Shankar Raja bear testimony to this fact.

Adding one more to the feathers in his cap, in Aayirathil Oruvan, will be a guest performance by Parthiban, no surprise that an actor of his stature has agreed for a cameo as he has done it before in Anthapuram. But then, Parthiban is always experimenting and is open to new ideas and roles and we expect his role in Aayirathil Oruvan to be as different as it was in Anthapuram.

And that is not all! Even Dhanush, the younger brother of the director will appear in a guest role. With Aayirathil Oruvan having an array of actors like Reema Sen, Andrea and Karthi it is quite natural that the film is drawing a lot of attention.
