Surya in Venkat Prabhu’s 3D movie
Posted by

After Mankatha success, director Venkat Prabhu is now planning for his next movie with Surya in the lead.
Venkat Prabhu says “Surya will be the lead in my upcoming 3D movie which is to be shot using 3D format, unlike the other 3D pictures that are shot using normal cameras and then converted to 3D format and I have zeroed in Hollywood specialists for this, who will accumulate us from the first day of shooting.”
Surya and Venkat Prabhu has long back reported about this 3D project, but as both are busy with their current projects. The discussions are still on whether to cast Surya or Karthi in the lead and so there were no advancements to the project.
The star director narrated the story to Surya and the latter was pretty impressed to play the lead. As the actor is busy with K.V.Anand’s Maatraan and Neengalum Vellalam Oru Kodi TV show, he will join with Mankatha director Venkat Prabhu once he gets free.

We have seen Surya play larger-than-life roles in films such as “Perazhagan,” “Ghajini,” “Singam” and “7am Arivu.” In fact, in most of the films he has done, we remember him as the characters — such has been his portrayal.
Now, we will see Surya as Surya — stylish, suave, natural and, of course, handsome — not on the silver screen but on television, as the host of Neengalum Vellalam Oru Kodi (NVOK), the Tamil version of Kaun Banega Crorepathi (KBC).
Game changer
“This is my small screen debut, and I am excited it is through a well-established game show. It will give me an opportunity to meet the common people and connect with them, something I have never been able to do as a film star,” says Surya, who is in the midst of an orientation workshop with Siddhartha Basu, director of KBC and NVOK. At this orientation, Surya has had the chance to see Amitabh Bachchan (AB) in action on the set of KBC. “During the several days I spent in Mumbai, I have closely observed how AB works. Despite his stature and busy schedule, the hard work he puts in each episode is beyond compare. I think it is this dedication that's responsible for the show's success,” observes Suriya. Did he get any advice from AB? “No. The sheer energy he exudes, his total involvement during the preparation for the shoot and his absolute concentration taught me many lessons. He is a perfectionist!”
The USP
The shooting of NVOK's first season begins in January 2012 and the show is all set to be launched in February 2012. Talking about Neengalum Vellalam Oru Kodi, K. Sriram, general manager, Vijay TV, says, “This is truly the first international format to hit the Tamil television screens and we are excited about it. We are proud we have managed to rope in Surya to host the show. Easily, he is the USP. This programme will be a game changer not only for Vijay TV but also for Tamil television. To strengthen the channel, we plan to launch two allied shows. We have planned an extensive, never-before-seen marketing campaign.” There is a whopping Rs. 1 crore to be won — an amount that can change an ordinary man's life forever.
New audiences
For Surya, it is a great chance to explore new markets. “The TV audience is six times more than that for cinema. NVOK will show my viewers the real me and not as any character I usually portray in films. The show will give me a chance to tell them that I am as down-to-earth as they are. I think it will give me a totally different image that will help me in my career as an actor,” says Surya.
In the midst of “Maatran” and a forthcoming film with director Hari, how does he manage to do a show like NVOK? “Thankfully, I am doing only ‘Maatran' now and have managed to allot substantial time for this show. We will shoot extensively to can as many episodes as possible before I start my next film around March or April next year,” says Surya.
Call for Entry
The mechanism to participate in the show will be announced on Vijay TV on December 25. Viewers will be given five days, i.e. between December 25 and 30, to contest and win a chance to take the hot seat opposite Suriya.
The Call for Entry (CFE) is open only for five days after which the lines will be closed. All arrangements have been made to avoid jamming of lines given the popularity of the show and the huge response anticipated. The short-listed candidates will then go through a selection process — only a chosen few will have a shot at the game and a chance to take home Rs. 1 crore. The CFE questions will be announced on Vijay TV, on radio and in print from December 25 to 30.

Surya is all set to don the hat of quizmaster for the Tamil version of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’. Titled as ‘Neengalum Vellalam Oru Kodi’, the show will go on air from mid Januray 2012.
According to sources, the show will kick start around Pongal and questions for the qualifying rounds will start airing soon. The Hindi version of the show had catapulted Amitabh Bachchan to a superstar status and had given him a new lease in his professional front.
Ever since the first season, the show has been adapted on different regional channels. Shah Rukh Khan had hosted the second season while Saurav Ganguly and Shatrughan Sinha hosted the Bengali and Bhojpuri versions respectively.
Surya, who has an immense fan following down south, will be making his debut on small screen with the new show
