No Tamil film so far has
caught the fancy of the entire national media as "Sivaji"
did. Everything about "Sivaji" belonged to
the top class. It is Rajni's biggest hit so far, making
Rs.1 billion..

Vijay starrer and Prabhu
Deva’s first directorial venture 'Pokiri' was a big
hit in Kollywood. The movie makes a point about
the responsibilities of the police force and is
peppered with fast-paced action, peppy
dialogues, humour and romance.

A film about rural Tamil
Nadu. Hero Karthi is a new face. Heroine Priya Mani
is not well known. But the film has crossed 300 days
at the box office. It is the strength of the theme,
treatment and performance that made "Paruthiveeran"
a huge hit.

Ram, a former assistant
of Balu Mahendra, dared to experiment, and what an experiment
it is! It is a kind of film that moviegoers have not
seen in recent times. Jeeva as Prabhakar also contributed
a lot to the appeal of the film.

When Prakashraj produced
this small film, he probably did not think even in his
wildest dreams that it would set a benchmark in Tamil
cinema. Success of Mozhi showed that people of Tamil Nadu
have started patronising good cinema.

Another path breaking film
of 2007. This along with 'Periyar' was selected for the
Indian Panorama at the International Film Festival at
Goa. "Ammuvagiya Naan" is the sad story of a
sex worker who decided to marry a writer and be a homemaker.
Debutant Bharati as the prostitute and Parthipan as the
writer acted superlatively.

It is the remake of the Marathi
film "Dombivli Fast", which had won many international
awards. When you see the film, you will know why Madhavan
decided to produce it himself.

"Billa"
is the remake of the original made in 1980. It had
Rajnikanth in the lead and the film was such a huge
success that he became the superstar of Tamil cinema.
The new "Billa", released on Dec 14, is
a slick, technically superb film and it is doing
extremely well at the box office, second only to
"Sivaji"!
