Dhanush clarifies ‘Seedan’ confusion

Actor Dhanush is apparently basking in the glory of the success of his latest venture ‘Aadukalam’ directed by vetrimaran. The film, set in the backdrop of Madurai and with rooster fighting as its central theme, had Dhanush speaking ever-so-fluently in typical Madurai dialect. He has been getting appreciation from the print and television media as well as from his fans and cine-goers.
For the past fortnight, though, print media is full of advertisements of an upcoming film ‘Seedan’ which seemingly depicts Dhanush playing the lead role opposite Ananya (of ‘nadodigal’ fame). The film, directed by subramanian siva (who directed Dhanush in ‘Thiruda Thirudi’ years back), took Dhanush’s fans by surprise as they hardly heard about its launch in the past.
Dhanush has now come out with a statement clarifying that he was only playing a ‘guest role’ or a ‘special role’ in the film and that he wasn’t playing a full-fledged hero’s role like he usually does. The statement dispels doubts his fans and others had about the film, which has sprung up only recently.
“My role in Seedan is limited to around 25 minutes or so; I play Ananya’s (the heroine) servant in the film. It’s the role of a simpleton which I liked a lot due to which I committed myself to do the film. The climax of the film would be amazing, indeed. Movie-goers who patronize good films would surely like the film,” Dhanush has said in the statement.
Remake of the Malayalam hit ‘Nandanam’, Siva’s ‘Seedan’ has Krishna and Ananya as the lead pair.

Dhanush’s upcoming movie ‘Seedan’ has started its promotions and the materials feature Dhanush prominently. The promos say ‘Dhanush in amazing appearance’. This has puzzled many because there was news before saying ‘Seedan’ cannot be called Dhanush film as he plays only a cameo.
But the director of the film Subramaniam Siva strongly disagrees and asserts ‘Seedan’ will be accepted as Dhanush film. Siva reveals that Dhanush enters the scene towards the end of the first half and then carries the rest of the film on his shoulders.
It is an important role and without Dhanush the story makes no sense, the director clarifies. Siva further praises Dhanush for accepting a role without conventional heroics in spite of being a mass hero. His character will be like that of Amir Khan in ‘Tare Zameen Par’ and Vijayakanth in ‘Oomai Vizhigal’. Such a strong central character Dhanush plays according to the director.
Starring newcomer Krishna and ‘Naadodigal’ fame Ananya of romantic lead, ‘Seedan’ has Suhasini Mani Ratnam, Sheela and Vivek in other supporting roles. The hit combo of Dhanush-Subramaniam Siva is coming together after the super success of their 2003 blockbuster ‘Thiruda Thirudi’.

The successful combo comes back. Dhanush and Subramaniam Siva, who gave super hit movie Thiruda Thirudi, is all set to join hands for Seedan.

Amith of Myth Productions, who has produced films like ‘Ayyar The Great’ and ‘Kaalapani’ in Malayalam, ‘Gardish’ and ‘Chandni Bar’ in Hindi and the solitary Tamil film ‘Aaha’, is launching his second Tamil film titled ‘Seedan’ starring Dhanush in the lead. The film is directed by Sumbrmaniam Siva, who directed the star in ‘Thiruda Thirudi’.

‘Nadodigal’ Ananya pairs up opposite Dhanush as the heroine. Newcomer Krishna, Suhasini, Sheela of ‘Chemmeen’ fame, Ponvannan and Ilavarasu are among the cast while Vivek would take of the comedy portion in the film.

Art director Jackie of ‘Paruthiveeran’ fame has reportedly erected a huge palace inside the Prasad Studios at a whopping cost of Rs.1.20 crores for shooting certain sequences in the film. Cinematographer Srinivas Devamsam, a protégé of P.C. Sreeram, has managed to capture the Nature’s beauty in all its glory. Sudarsan would be the editor of the film, said to be in its second leg of shooting
