Puli Film

MOM is Sridevi's first Hindi film after Gauri Shinde's English Vinglish - in between she featured in Tamil fantasy film Puli

Sridevi, who started her career with Tamil, says that her daughter Jhanvi can also star in Tamil cinema if a good script comes her way

"MOM will also be dubbed and released in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam apart from Hindi," said Sridevi's husband Boney Kapoor, who is producing the film

Known for reinventing commercial Tamil cinema with Rajinikanth, Mr Arunachalam's's best films with the latter include Kazhugu, Pokkiri Raja and Paayum Puli among others. The duo had worked together in 23 films

Sridevi, known for films like Himmatwala, Mr India, Lamhe, Sadma and Khuda Gawah and English Vinglish, was last seen in the Tamil film Puli

"We were paying her as per the agreement she had signed at the beginning of the film. However, in the final stages of production, Sridevi's husband Boney Kapoor asked us to pay her extra as we were planning to release the film in other languages too," the producers claimed.

"I should say I'm amazed with Puli. The spectacular sets and the grand scale on which the film has been made, is at par with Hollywood standards," Rajinikanth said in a statement. He also described Vijay as a "perfect treat for family and kids". Puli also stars Sridevi, Shruti Haasan and Hansika Motwani

"The Tamil version will release on October 16. The film's Tamil producers Thenandal Films released Vijay-starrer Puli last week and hence have pushed the release of Rudhramadevi by a week as they feel both the films will eat into their box office returns," a source from the film's unit told IANS

"All of them including Vijay have been paying tax but not the full amount. The total tax evaded amount comes to about Rs 25 crore. In our raid, cash amounting to Rs 2 crore and gold worth Rs 2 crore was recovered," a source from the income tax department revealed

After Income Tax raids at his office and elsewhere including those connected with his latest release 'Puli', top Tamil actor Vijay faced more nervous moments today with the film's release being threatened over payment issues.

The release of Puli had hit a roadblock after early morning shows and overseas premieres of the film were cancelled due to payment issues. However, the issues are now resolved and the film has released in India and abroad. Hansika Motwani tweeted: "All issues sorted. It's time to Roar. It's time for #Puli. it's #showtime"

Income tax officials on September 30 raided houses of leading southern actor Vijay, whose film Puli is slated to release on October 1. They also raided the houses of the film's producers. "The raids were conducted following reports that some investment made in Puli is unaccounted for"

Income tax officials today raided houses of leading southern actors Vijay, Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Nayantara.

The other factor that makes Puli special for her, was sharing screen space with Sridevi. "The first film I saw of Sridevi ma'am was Sadma opposite Kamal Haasan, when I was 10 years old. I was too young to understand much and was crying my lungs out, moved by her performance," said Hansika

"He watched the film at NFDC's (National Film Development Corporation) preview theatre. His children and wife loved the film and Vijay hopes that his fans will like it too," a source from the theatre told IANS. The film also stars Sridevi, Hansika Motwani, Shruti Haasan and Sudeep in important roles
