Nayan stunned!
“Nayanthara’s mother found murdered”- was today (September 25) on the front page of an English daily, with Nayan’s picture published along with the report! The story datelined Sep 24 from Hyderabad says- “The brutal murder of a 45-year old woman, mother of upcoming South Indian actress Nayanthara, on Monday morning has shocked the residents of Madhuranagar. The victim Kamala Devi was staying with Nayanthara in the house. The miscreants decamped with 50 tolas of gold and some cash after killing the woman.”
It was a terrible mix-up due to irresponsible journalism of the worst kind. A junior artist in Telugu films, who had named herself Nayanthara to cash in on the famous actress, was the ‘heroine’ of the story. The reporter, who filed the story without checking facts, blew it up and published a file picture of the more famous and well known Nayanthara along with the story!
Meanwhile the one and only Nayanthara blissfully unaware of the news paper report was woken up at a Chennai five star hotel, early in the morning. Nayan after reading the report was livid with rage and called up her mother Omana Kurian in Thiruvalla, and informed her about this shocking incident!
Nayan is currently the ‘numero uno’ Telugu actress, and the mischievous mix-up happened because her name sells. She does not own any property in Hyderabad, and normally stays at the Taj Krishna whenever she is in town. On Monday, when the junior artist’s mother was murdered, Nayan was not in Hyderabad. She was shooting for Sathyam in Chennai!
To add fuel to fire, many Kollywood personalities received SMS messages asking them to convey their condolence to the actress! Says Nayan: “It is an irresponsible act by this leading newspaper. I am consulting my lawyers on how to handle this nasty and malicious report. I can handle any kind of nonsense written about me but why drag my poor mother into all this?”

A name change!
Jeeva's much touted Tamil M.A has gone for a title change to avail itself of entertainment tax benefit. Now the film will be known as Katrathu Tamil (I learned Tamil), and its release date too has been changed from Sep 28 to October 5.
Katrathu Tamil is a realistic story of a Tamil M.A graduate who goes from pillar to post looking for a job. Director Ram an associate of Balu Mahendra has tried to show the difficulties faced by a Tamil M.A graduate in getting a job even in a government college!
Jeeva had reduced weight for the film in which he appears in three different get-up. The film has Jeeva and has new girl Anjali in the lead. It has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja, and the film is about the life and times of Prabhakar, a man who has devoted his life for the upliftment of the Tamil language.
Comedy actor Karunas was so impressed with Katrathu Tamil, that he has purchased the entire Tamilnadu rights of the film! Says Karunas: "The film is amazing, and will be a trendsetter. We are releasing it big; in Chennai alone 7 screens will show the movie." ....
