Three dots

WE CAN say it now. Mani Ratnam's next film is `Ayitha Ezhuthu.' The director on Tuesday was busy completing the photo shoot for the movie at Venket Ram's studio.

Did you know that the title is derived from the last letter of the Tamil alphabet?

"Just like the three dots in `Ayitha Ezhuthu,' the movie is about three people in three different situations," as the publicist explains. It's based on contemporary problems concerning the youth (the film is called `Yuva' in Hindi). Madras Talkies, on Thursday last week, came up with the of- ficial announcement of the cast. Suriya, Madhavan, Siddharth, Meera Jasmine, Trisha and Esha Deol, a cameo by director Bharathirajaa and comedian Janakaraj. "It's my crowning glory," says Madhavan. With his daringly different look, it will be a Madhavan you haven't seen before, the insiders say. The buzz is that Madhavan is paired with Meera, Suriya with Esha and Siddharth with Trisha.

The audio (music by A.R. Rahman) is expected to be out by mid March. The film, however, is due for release only by May. The credits include Ravi K. Chandran (cinematography), Sujatha (dialogue), Vairamuthu (lyrics), Sabu Cyril (art direction), Srikar Prasad (editing), Brinda (dance) and Vikram Dharma (stunts).
