Remakes and Tamil Cinema

mirchigirl — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 19:41:13 +0000

Continuing our discussion on-air on Sunday, we want to know what you think about remakes of other language films to Tamil and remake of Tamil movies into other languages. In the recent years, many of the hit Tamil movies have been remakes. Starting from young actors to Super Star everyone is a part of the remake industry.

Is it healthy? Are our directors and script writers not creative enough? That is just one aspect of the debate.

The other aspect is, that there are numerous wonderful Tamil movies in the recent years like Chennai 600028, Mozhi, Veyil should these movies be remade? Ghajini is being remade in Hindi, Nala Damayanthi, Alaipayuthey, Minnale are all movies that were remade in Hindi later on.

The question is, what Tamil movies can/should be remade in other languages? Let us know your favorite movies that should be remade in the comment section along with the reason and your comments may win some cool gifts from Tamil Mirchi! Keep commenting and listening to Tamil Mirchi

Independence and you

mirchigirl — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 14:09:36 +0000

I live miles and seas away from my motherland and crib about not having a holiday on India’s Independence day and Republic Day. I dream about a long weekend, lazing around. Is that my patriotic spirit? Is that the way I see my nation’s hard-earned independence? I am ashamed of myself.

What are your plans for India’s Independence day? Where ever you live, whatever you do, share you views! Your views can win a prize from Tamil Mirchi!

Together let us celebrate our independence in a way it deserves to be!

Jai Hind!

Golden Boy – Abhinav

mirchigirl — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 15:54:24 +0000

I admit, I never heard of the name Abhinav Bindra before today. Today, I google about him, read everything I can about him, see his pictures and feel a sense of pride.

How many of you knew him/heard of his name before today?

If you want to hear about him and the Olympics in his own words, head to his blog here http://abhinavbindra.blogspot.com/

He is yet to blog about his triumph!

And a bit of trivia for those interested, Abhinav came 7th in the Athens Olympics 4 years back!
