Buzz up!When Lyricist Snehan came to the stadium, he urged Namitha to wear the traditional costume of Tamil girls, half saree and skirt. “Yes… it is our cultural dress and if Namitha wears this dress, it will become the favourite dress of young Tamil girls soon”, he added. In her reply, Namitha said, “I’m ready and wish to wear the dress mentioned by Snehan. Definitely I will try to wear the same in any one of my future film…”.

She was also replied to the allegations made against her for not attending the music
launch of her earlier movies. “People should understand that actors too are human beings. There must be a genuine reason when we are not attending events related to a film which we are also a part. We also have health related issues and unavoidable emergencies at home. So please trust us and accept our apologies if we can’t make it to any of the film functions…”

Alert to all diehard Namitha fans, who hound her when she makes a public appearance, who wish to build a temple for her or those who never miss a film of hers! Her cousin, an equally sexy Radhika Malhotra, is all set to set foot into tinsel town, through the film ‘Raghavan’.

Directed by Paranthaman, the movie is about a young lad’s love for a girl who doesn’t understand him and falls for a baddie instead. How the girl, played by Radhika, gets to understand the hero and his love’s genuinity form’s the story’s crux.

This is the debut directorial venture of Paranthaman, who was an associate to Sevaraghavan, which is why the movie has been titled ‘Raghavan’. This is like how Gautham’s assistant Krishna, named his first hero’s character, Gautham. Suriya played this role in Krishna’s ‘Sillunu Oru Kadhal’.

Gangai Amaren makes a comeback as the music director for this film, produced by Selva Raj under the banner Akhina Productions. Vijith plays the lead role and Radhika plays his love. In fact, the actress had to do a scene in which she had to slap him and it seems she shocked him out of his wits by really slapping him on the sets.
