“Nooravathu Naal” was a trendsetting Suspense thriller in the 1980’s. Now it takes a reincarnation and it is to be remade in ‘Reboot’ mode. The movie is going to be directed by Raghu Manivannan, son of Manivannan the Director of the original make of the 1980’s NooravathuNaal.
When a popular and critically acclaimed movie is made into a new one, it is said to be a ‘Remake’. It is nothing but depicting the same story with different actors. Continuation of the very same storyline that results in subsequent parts is called as a ‘Sequel’.
‘Reboot’ means to keep the same central nucleus and to portray it with respect to the taste of the current day audience and time period by changing the script, story flow, screenplay, scenes, actors, characters and everything else that needs a change.
Hollywood Movies like ‘Hulk’, ‘Superman’, ‘Batman’, ‘Spiderman’, ‘Terminator’ were successful as a result of the ‘Reboot’ mode and it still keeps continuing.
‘Nooravathu Naal’ is said to be the first Tamil Movie to be made under such similar maneuver.
“Nooravathu Naal’ was one of the most Successful Movies under my Dad’s direction and a Critically acclaimed one as well.. I tried to start it off quite earlier itself in ‘Reboot’ mode, but my Mom and Dad’s sudden death made me wholly upset.. So I stayed in UK for One year and got some peace of mind..I met few people there and I spoke with my friends as well.. Many of them encouraged me for my efforts and few said that only actions movies can be remade, while Thrillers can’t be made as a ‘Remake’.. says Raghu Manivannan in his press release.
He also adds, “I had many discussions about it after I was back here.. It’ll not be interesting in anyway when a movie is made on the same storyline because audience are already aware of the plot and hence there’ll not be any expectation.. What would be the thrill to watch on a known issue? Thus I decided to take it.. Movie’s Plot, Scenes, Screenplay and everything are totally changed and is taken off in a different direction which will be absolutely impressive..
Natraj Subramaniam of ‘Sathuranga Vettai’ fame has been roped in to play the Male Lead.. Though the Screenplay has already been finished, we are trying to carve it better on each day and will not proceed with the shoot unless we are completely satisfied with it..
Sibiraj and U.K.Senthil Kumar had helped me and assisted me to the greatest extent,” said Raghu Manivannan..
Music for this new version of “Nooravathu Naal” is said to be composed by Niro Praba who resides in London. He is the student of our Oscar Winning Music Composer, A.R.Rahman. Cinematography is to be handled by U.K.Senthil Kumar and is produced by ATM Productions. Story is by Late. Manivannan. The Screenplay, Dialogue and Direction would be made by Raghu Manivannan.
The details of other actors of the movie is said to be announced soon.
Cinematographer turned actor, Natraj Subramaniam affectionately called as Nattu is currently busy with Vijay’s Project ‘Puli’, which is expected to be finished by March.
Hence shooting for the movie “Nooravathu Naal” is expected to start in the beginning of April and is said to take off in an entirely new attempt named as “Reboot”.
Each and every Movie directed by Manivannan was based on thoroughly different plots and genres which differentiated each from one another. His Son is on his way to direct his first film.
