DIRECTOR VENKAT PRABHU TESTS MANKATHA

The shooting of the Mankatha is scheduled to begin on October 25th 2010. But director Venkat Prabhu went ahead with the test shoot on October 19th with Premji Amaren, Mahat Raghavendra and Vaibhav Reddy taking part in it. Mahat Raghavendra is a newbie to the film industry.

Venkat Prabhu is leaving no stone unturned to make Mankatha a success and is toiling hard to make it a perfect film. Mankatha, it may be recalled, happens to be Ajith’s 50th film. Mankatha is all about fun, action, friendship, and romance.

MUSIC DIRECTOR ILAYARAJA IN MANKATHA!

Yuvan Shankar Raja is busy these days scoring the music for the film Mankatha, the Ajith starrer. The music director, son of the ace musician Ilayaraja, is now said to have roped in his dad for a song. And Yuvan will join his father by rendering his voice too. This will be the first time Ilayaraja will be singing with Yuvan in the same song. Ilayaraja has earlier sung in the Yuvan’s compostions.

Yuvan’s cousin Venkat Prabhu is directing the film Mankatha and during their earlier venture together in Goa, the five cousins - Karthik Raja, Venkat Prabhu, Bhavatharini, Premji Amaran and Yuvan Shankar Raja came together for the song Yezhezhu Thalaimuraikkum.
