The release of 'Varanam Aayiram' would not be for this Deepavali as expected ardently and probably the movie would hit the screens on the first week of November. In this film, Suriya plays dual roles and his characters will be known as Krishna and Suriya. Simran, Sameera Reddy, Divya Spandana play the heroines.
The film announced with a budget of 14 crores has drawn inspirations from the Hollywood movie 'Forrest Gump' starring Tom Hanks and has been made in a way to suit the Indian audience.
Gautham Vasudev Menon regarding the title once stated that they did not deliberately attempt to name the movie with a Tamil title. The title, which is a phrase from Andal's 'Thiruppavai', was found to be synonymous with the storyline of the movie and thereby it was picked. 'Varanam Aayiram' literally means the strength of thousand elephants.
The film has seven songs composed by Harris Jayaraj. The songs from the albums were released to four leading FM stations in Chennai, with one song per station, in attempt to popularize it five days before the official launch.
With the Suriya-Gautham duo coming back after the blockbuster Kaakha Kaakha(2003), and with Harris Jayaraj's music, Suriya appearing in different get ups with three glamorous ladies, 'Varanam Aayiram' is much worth waiting till this november and it would sure become the hottest film in Kollywood trade circuit.
