Everyone in the film industry aims for an Oscar. For actor Kamal Hassan, his latest project may just take him a step closer to the award. How? He has roped in Walt Disney as the producers for his next film.
Dream project
This film also happens to be the actor’s dream project and is called Marma Yoghi.
This big budget film could not do with just one producer, so now there is a co-producer — Bharat Bala of AR Rahman’s Vande Mataram fame. Thanks to Bharat, this film will also see Kamal Hassan and AR Rahman coming together for the first time.
International producer
Walt Disney Productions has recently tied up with Yashraj films and will be producing a film called Roadside Romeo for them shortly.
Fortunately for Kamal, the production house wants to spread its wings across the country too. The actor will be in the US to discuss production details for this film that will be shot in Thailand. Kamal plans to start shooting for this film in February.
Shooting up
Marma Yoghi is to be a historical story, set in the seventh century. The film is also touted to become the most expensive film in India.
A source says, “Kamal has budgeted this film at approximately 120 crores and as we all know, a film is never made within a quoted budget. It is bound to be the most expensive film ever made in our country.”
Once more
With remaking being the trend of late, it is not surprising that Kamal’s dream project too is another remake. The original Marma Yoghi was released in 1951 and starred legends MGR and Anjali Devi. The story is based on the novel Vendetta: The story of one forgotten, in the year 1886 by Marie Corelli.
Kamal’s Marma Yoghi will feature three heroines and rumours are that Kamal has zeroed in on two of them — Asin and Hema Malini, both of whom have acted with him before.

hi.. Into ur blog after a long time.. And hey.. Is Marmayogi, in any case, the same movie Marudhanayagam which kamal dropped? I think so. And what about Rajni's next venture Robo. Heard tht Deepika wil starr opposite Rajni.
P.S. Do visit ma new site and comment when u find time, mate..
as vijay said , don't comapre with rajini, rajini is not self confident person, he actually worries before starting a film and also afterwards, he's not true sincere person devoted to cinema industry, he always likes spiritual that doesn't makes the life to know truthly, rajini is superstitious person, he doesn't takes risk at all, even in fight scenes in cinema, only open voice that media and people should listen to him and shakes the heads whatever rajini says...
Most of the people even educated and uneducated listens to rajini because he is not a self confident person, he doesn't know how to live a life open to heart, rajini afraids outside source as spiritual because he loses in his economy, society status to manage highly, he afraids what the other persons about him as he afraid about this speech from outside, he didn't listen to his own voice inside his heart...
What Vijay as u know all this and also in ur mind to know about this...
kamal has already worked with AR.Rahman in INDIAN , fyi.
