Ajith and Venkat Prabhu planning for Mankatha sequel
The filmmaker has admitted that they are planning for a sequel of Mankatha. Venkat Prabhu says that he had two scripts in hand before starting the recently released film. Now that the Tamil movie has been well-received by the audience, the director has decided to take up the other one.
In fact, Arjun Sarja had also told Venkat Prabhu before that Mankatha could become a franchise and asked him to be ready with another script for the second instalment of the Tamil film. Sources say that the film unit is raring to make the sequel for the movie.
However, it is not sure when the proposed project will be launched. Currently, Ajith Kumar is busy with the sequel of Billa, which is directed by Chakri Toleti.
Kollywood praises Ajith's Mankatha
Exceeding everyone’s expectations – not very often we do have such verdicts marked on films. But Ajith’s ‘Mankatha’ gains the earnest favours of film critics and box office collections as well. It went onto make a stupendous opening in both multiplexes and single screens across Tamil Nadu. The celebrities in Tamil film industry had even called off a day from shooting to watch the film. Simbu, Ashwin Shekar, Bharath and other few actors were in raging excitements to watch film with their fans.
Trisha has tweeted saying, “Ajith has proved that he is in the hearts of fans. In spite of disbanding his fans club, going with a natural look and choosing a really different role, he has endeavored with his mission.”
Producer Dhananjayan of UTV Motion Pictures has said, “Ajith has proved that a film’s success doesn’t go with the fans club.”
Kudoses to the entire team of ‘Mankatha’ as everyone has done a tremendous job.

Mankatha Public opinion, fans celebrations, Ajith Intro, Video Songs [Video]
The film has been released a day ago in Singapore, Dubai and other parts of the world with big openings ever.
All those who got a chance of watching first day first show in overseas cant stop praising the film as Ajith has performed brilliantly. Good going Thala!!!!!
Mankatha is all about Mystery & Suspense, Drama, Action and Adventure which is festival treat for all his fans.
Mankatha is said to be the biggest ever multi-starrer movie of Tamil Cinema.
The story revolves around a Mafia gambling gang during the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket season.
For the first time in his career Ajith played a negative role named Vinayak Mahadevan while Action king Arjun plays C.I.D Officer who chases Thala.
The film carries many interesting twists and twirls along hair rising bike stunts, car stunts done by Thala apart from superb action sequences.
Ajith has occupied the whole screen until the end of the film and his performance is at its peaks.
The first half of the film has very few entertaining scenes, comedy is a big let down but nevertheless entertaining but the director could have worked out on the screenplay along with editing. The second is said to be the highlight of the film with never expected twist in the story. This final commercial twist will definitely work in the movie's favor.
Guy’s don’t give a miss to the ending credits where you will surely witness a whole new Ajith.
The film is definitely going to witness the biggest ever openings at the box office for its story and the hype around the project apart from Ajith factor.

Review:Mankatha works only because of Ajith
The first thing that needs to be said about the enormously anticipated movie of the year, Cloud Nine and Sun Pictures' Mankatha, directed by Venkat Prabhu, is that this is probably the film Ajith has enjoyed making the most. This being his 50th film, as the title scorches the screen, you expect fire-works. Fireworks there are aplenty: guns blaze, men are liberally killed and gangsters run all over the place. In the midst of it all sits Thala Ajith, a lazy grin on his face, leaning stylishly against a car or in a dilapidated warehouse, and such is his screen presence that you almost forget the gaping inconsistencies in the screenplay. Almost.
For Mankatha, as you discover around half an hour into the film, depends entirely on its swashbuckling hero/villain, who appears in every frame, and makes sure your attention stays on him, and only him.
The beginning is worthy of any mass hero: a terrified Faizal (Aravind Akash) is tied down in a desert by the police, who are going to kill him any second, when a four-wheeler practically flies through the air, lands on the ground, scattering sand, and Vinayak Mahadevan (Ajith) emerges, salt-and-pepper hairdo, lazy contempt in his eyes and a stylish swagger, all perfectly in place. Bullets and guns are in plenty, but somehow no one uses them. Instead, they fall like dominos as Vinayak smashes through them.
Cut to the setting of the story: Mumbai, bookies, betting in crores with the IPL as the background (except that cricket is not a part of the story), a local bigwig, Arumugam Chettiar (Jayaprakash), the owner of a ragged-looking theatre who is part of the bookies-racket, and many, many thugs. Vinayak's henchman Sumanth (Vaibhav) greedily eyes the cash that's heaped under his master's aegis. Together with his friend Mahath (Mahath), owner of a bar, Vinayak decides on a daring but rather bland heist. Roped in are cop Ganesh (Ashwin) and Prem (Premgi Amaren), a curly-haired, bumbling IT expert who seems to hack into any system within seconds.
In the midst of all this, having romanced the pretty Sanjana (Trisha), Vinayak gate-crashes the party, practically elbowing himself into the proceedings. He doesn't really bring in fantastic plot-twists, wonderful techniques or novel ideas to do away with 500 crores of money -- but who cares when he flips cigarettes like a pro, drinks like a fish and fights like Terminator?
And so goes the story -- Vinayak pits himself against the Special Force tasked to rout out the villains, and against its head, ACP Prithviraj (Arjun). And a series of extremely predictable, sequences follow, infused with dashes of humour that work only sporadically.
Ajith, the star that he is, has carried practically the whole film on his capable shoulders -- and he's simply had a blast as the guy whose character sports negative shades. He utters four-letter cuss words with the ease of long practice, sleeps with random women, drinks like there's no tomorrow and lusts after money with a passion that sweeps us all away. And you wonder why no one ever gave him a role like this after Vaali. The man's screen-presence works wonders -- and here, he's also had a blast dancing.
By contrast, naturally, the rest of the cast is at least ten paces behind him, and it's not all their fault; their roles have been written that way. Arjun, Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Andrea Jeremiah, Vaibhav, Jayaprakash, though they perform well, are all relegated to the sidelines. Premgi Amaren isn't really that funny, except once or twice. And that's a pity. Mahath and Ashwin don't really have much to do. And why on earth did Anjali accept a role like this?
Sakthi Saravanan's camera-work isn't scintillating, but it manages to keep you interested. Praveen K L and N B Srikanth's editing could not have been more effective. Yuvan Shankar Raja's Vilaiyadu Mankatha is mesmerising; he also plays around with some of his father's tunes for the background score, appropriately placed. The rest of the songs, while passing muster, suffer because of their silly placement. A story that revolves around a heist needs to be racy, keeping you on the edge of the seat, biting your nails. And this is where it falters.
Director Venkat Prabhu has made a name for himself on his ability to wring humour from his tried and tested cast. The problem is, with Ajith, the star, present, he's vacillated from giving him enough screen-space, yet retaining the hilarity. And it doesn't really work. An hour into the film and you wonder if the huge build-up so far is just a lot of hot air. The dialogues aren't funny, the sequences are very predictable, the gun-fights are silly at times, the heroines vanish if you blink, and it's only in the last ten minutes that the lost momentum re-surfaces.
If you're a veteran of heist movies, and especially our own mass-masala movies, you should be able to guess the climax within the first ten minutes of the film. It is, in fact, the behind-the-scenes montage that's by far the best in the movie.
If Mankatha works even just a bit, it's because of Ajith, whose charisma shines through. Watch it only for him. The rest really don't matter.
Game on in Ajith style
It's Ajith's 50th venture. What more it s directed by Venkat Prabhu with betting scandal in cricket as its theme. A huge star cast including Trisha, Arjun among others raised all expectations. Thats Mankatha. Tamil Movie Mankatha - Mankatha Movie Review. Lets check out the review.
Story
Mankatha is a racy and adrenaline-rushing story of a Maharshatra police officer Vinayak Mahadevan (Ajith) who is suspended for helping a smuggler to escape from police encounter. He starts leading life in his own way. He falls for Sanjana (Trisha), daughter of an influential local goon Arumuga Chettiyar (Jayaprakash) in Mumbai. A tough cop Prithvi (Arjun) takes charge to end betting scandal in IPL cricket in Mumbai. Arumuga uses his links with dons in Mumbai tries to route through his old theatre , a cash of over Rs 500 crore to be used in betting.
Sumanth (Vaibhav), a goon working for Arumuga Chettiyarplans to take away the booty with the help of his friends Ganesh (Ashwin), Mahanth (Mahanth), who owns a bar in Mumbai and Prem (Premji), a IIT graduate. Vinayak joins the race. he promises to help them and divide it between them. Trouble starts after they take away the acsh. Both Arumugha Chettiyar and police are now on their heels. Meanwhile, Mahanth and Prem escape with the cash. It all upto Vinayak now. The battle shifts between him and Prithvi.
Mangaatha has all the entertaining elements. It is especially for Ajith Kumar's fans and the people, who love action-oriented movies. Family audience may not like the subject. One should watch for the actor's performance and Venkat Prabhu's attempt to make the movie in Hollywood style with local budget!
Performance
Its Ajith all the way. He is simply amazing in the role of a dreaded baddie. With his usual looks sans makeup, he hogs all limelight. His one-liners brings laughter. Arjun does the role of a cop once more. But he is charming here. Trisha and Lakshmi Rai does play their part well. Andrea as Arjun's wife and Anjali in the role of Vaibhav's wife do minuscule roles.Vaibhav gets a meaty role and he utilise the opportunity. Premji did what he did in Goa and Chennai 28.
“Unakku ide maadiri 500 pondaati kedappa daa.” - with this dialogue, Ajith completes his mission of breaking all the syntax of a Tamil hero and has gone on to prove that an actor should strictly treat the script as the hero. Take a bow Ajith! It is a memorable 50th film indeed.Technicalities
It is technically well-made. Sakthi Saravanan's lens captures the stunts well. It forms the backbone of the movie. Yuvan Shankar's tunes add variety to it. His open song Mankatha...is celebrated in theatres. Director Venkat Prabhu seems to have done his part well. He has laced thrills, spills and humour in right mix.
Analysis
Mankatha is boyish film. It is all racy and rivetting.The first half is light and simple. The game really begins in latter part. With Venkat Prabhu and Ajith giving their best, Mankatha rocks all time.
Review 2
The film had been in news ever since the film was supposed to go on floors. Directed by Venkat Prabhu, produced by Dayanidhi Azhagri's Cloud Nine Movies and distributed by Sun Pictures.
Mankatha Review - Story/ Plot
Here we give you the insight of the story. Ajith as plays the role of Vinayak Mahadev, a police officer, who gets suspended. Vinayak and Prithviraj (played by Arjun) are friends who also is a police official.
Vinayak however stars working against the police department and forms his own gang. He poses threat to the police officers and Prthviraj ends up chasing Vinayak.
Vinayak along with Sumanth and Prem (played by Vaibhav and Premji respectively) forms a team and they stars stealing money.
As time passes by the gang of Vinayak gets caught one by one by Prithviraj. Although he wishes to catch Vinayak and plots ways he wouldn't be able to catch him.
We got introduced to Sanjana (played by Trisha), who just appears in few scene in the movie as the love interest of Vinakyak, who is the daughter of the Villain, a Casino owner. Sanjana is used as bait to win over the casino owner and get the money.
Vinayak who wins over lot of money and escapes with it. But there is a twist in the plot. To watch out for what the twist is all about one need to go the theater to catch Thala Ajith in action.
Overall – Mankatha film will appeal to all Thala fans for sure and will definitely be a hit among the masses. Thala Ajith in an all new 'Salt & Pepper' avatar is set to rock the screen and is doing so. The thala fans are going crazy to catch the Ultimate star in a stylish negative role, who uses a lot of bad words and steals money. Ajith entertains his fans unlike his previous duds.
Seems like Venkat Prabhu as a fan of Ajith has understood the pulse of the audience and fans of Ajith that he has given such an entertainer, where Ajith rules the game of action.
Verdict – Thala Ajith, not just steals the money in the movie but – steals the show completely!

Plot - 7/10
Action/Thriller - 8/10
Cinematography - 9/10
Overall - 8/10
The year's most anticipated film of Tamil Industry is finally rocking in cinemas near you beginning today. I would like to be honest with two things, one I'm a fan of Venkat Prabhu's direction and secondly I'm not a Thala's fan. Vijay had always been my favourite but after watching Mankatha, Thala got my heart!!!!
As what the plot was buzzed around with, Mankatha revolves around a Mafia gambling gang and so it was.
( SPOILER ALERTS ). First scene of the film already pumps your heart at max rate because this is one hell of a way to introduce Thala in his 50th film. Not only that, people will start going mad when ' Vilayadu Mankatha ' song is set early in this film! The only downfall of the film was the first half where some scenes were so easily predictable and the plot develops slow and steadily. At a point you will be feeling bored to death if you predicted all upcoming scenes and if you did just like me than you just took Venkat Prabhu's mega bait !!! When you are hooked to your own mind-plot and when it all goes with a flow, second half of the film will make you stand up and whistle for the direction. It was all about MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY....UMMAH.
Direction wise, Venkat Prabhu sir had developed much since Goa and his direction keeps getting better and better and better.Premji Amaren, famous for his comedy scenes did a few laugh-out-loud scenes only and we know there was better comedies in Chennai 600028 or Goa but that doesn't matter much in an action-thriller film. Ajith sir too had comedy scenes with Premji which tickles your stomach here and there. Truthfully, all credits should go to the cinematographer and film editors Sakthi Saravanan and Praveen/Srikanth. Editing was stunning, actions were amazing and Thala was rocking the ground in every single appearances !!!!!!
Not forgetting our Action King, a special op Police Ofiicer who tracks gambling activities and somehow plays cat and mouse with Ajith. No worries because you can finally see Action King and Thala on a one-one fighting scene in the climax which went with a twist that cramps your whole body. Thala is,was and will be the best villain of all time and all previous villains cannot be compared to Thala's style,dialogues,stunts and expressions.Yuvan's background score blended well with the film and songs which already topped the charts will make you sit and watch them playing instead of going to the toilet. On the other hand, Trisha was just a toy who Thala was playing with and she did not play on the main storyline much. Buzz was going around that Vijay was in the film but actually it was just a cinema scene where ' Vinnai Kappan Oruvan ' song was playing.One thing you can't expect to see in this film is real-life gambling scenes despite it being a gambling money film. Ending credits shows some warm yet funny scenes from the film's shooting and you would go off smiling happily after watching those mini scenes. Everyone played their parts well and credits should be given to Venkat Prabhu and his team.
Mankatha is being a massive hit in Malaysia during all first day shows since all tickets were sold out. I'm proud to say that I was the early ones to catch Mankatha on the big screen. Mankatha could easily be a blockbuster for all it's hype and could be equal to last year's Endhiran.
Despite being as an Ilayathalapathy's loyal fan, I trully loved Mankatha for it's uniqueness and thankfully it was not a typical Tamil mass masala film. Overall, Mankatha is thrilling, heart-pounding and mind-blowing although some scenes were predictable and slow but that should not stop anyone from watching it.

Exclusive! Mankatha, Big opening for Ajith film ever!
Interestingly, all the theatres and multiplexes that are screening this film are running special shows from morning to night and still there is dearth of tickets. This proves that the film is going to have the biggest and grandest opening ever!
Mankatha is a directorial venture from Venkat Prabhu and the film stars Ajith, Arjun, Trisha, Lakshmi Rai and several others.
Big booking for 'Mankatha'
Ajith fans have proved it again. Right from the moment the booking for 'Mankatha', the 50th of film of their Thala, began, they started thronging to cinema halls where the movie will be screened, to get tickets for first day.
Theatre sources say the response is so huge and they are so happy. Even online booking is witnessing a history of sorts, it is said. "Ajith is always referred to as king of opening. It has been proved once again," they add.
Sun Pictures, which is distributing 'Mankatha' in association with Radhika Sarathkumar's Radaan Media, is releasing the film in over 300 theatres in Tamil Nadu. "Since there are two holidays this week (Ramzan and Vinayaka Chathurthi), no doubt that the movie would see a gala opening," according to trade circles.
Produced by Dhayanidhi Alagiri's Cloud Nine Movies and directed by Venkat Prabhu, 'Mankatha' is actually a multi-starrer, with the most powerful role played by the Thala. Others in the cast are Arjun, Trisha, Andrea Jeremiah, Anjali, Lakshmi Rai, Premgi Amaran and Vaibhav.
Ajith's Mankatha special early screening at 5am, Kaasi theatre today
Update:
Ajith's Mankatha will have a special 5am screening at Kaasi theatre, Chennai. Asal was also screened at this theatre at this particular time. Vijay's Sura, Vikram's Raavanan, and Enthiran were also alloted this time slot so that fans can catch this early bird special.
The reason is that hardcore fans would love to see the film before everyone else does and this is for their benefit. It is a given that there will be many who will camp out all night to catch this show! Now that is star power!
Mankatha da...!
This is the mantra which is chanted across the world by Thala Fans. It is just a few hours left for Mankatha to hit the screens and August 31st is not just Ramzan but also a festival for Ajith fans.
Mankatha sees the biggest ever openings at the box office. Right from the minute the booking for Mankatha started, all Thala fans thronged to the theaters to get their first day first show tickets. Thala is said to be the king of openings and this has been proved once again as online booking witnessed a history of sorts. Since this is a festival weekend undoubtedly the movie is going to strike gold at the box office. Even the advance bookings at all theaters are full.
All the multiplexes and theatres that are screening Mankatha are running special shows from morning to night and still there is shortage of tickets. Its Mankatha’s mania and the film is definitely going to witness the biggest ever openings at the box office.
It is known that the film will see 60 shows between 5am-9am tomorrow.

Rating: Soon
Review & Rating Soon after the Movie Release.
Follow kollyinsider.com @tamilstudios for updates.
Being Ajith’s 50th film, the expectations for Mankatha have gone straight through the stratosphere. Few flicks barring of course Superstar Rajinikanth’s films have generated this kind of feverish excitement in recent times. Every miniscule detail about the film that has leaked out has been devoured by the fans who have consequently worked themselves up into a raging frenzy. Ajith’s brand new look for the film is believed to have been inspired by Hollywood star George Clooney, voted by People magazine as the sexiest man in the world. Of course in these parts, people swear that Ajith has rocked this look and looks way better than the Hollywood heartthrob.
Venkat Prabhu, the director of super hits like Chennai 600028 and Saroja has promised hardcore Ajith fans a treat they will never forget. He proudly claimed that he himself is a huge Ajith fan and therefore knows exactly what his admirers expect from him and has made the film accordingly.
The music by Yuvan Shankar Raja has enjoyed record sales from day one. The Yuvan – Venkat Prabhu combo has been an extremely successful one in the past and Mankatha has proved again that the cousins make a winning team where music is concerned. The songs are being played everywhere and are really setting the mood for the film which stands on the brink of release.
The makers have been careful not to let too many plot details slip, but the buzz is that Ajith’s character has shades of grey and will be involved in a cat and mouse game with Arjun’s cop character. The film has a starry cast with the likes of Premji Amaren, Vaibhav, Aravind Akash and some fresh talent. Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Andrea and Anjali are the lovely ladies who are going to add sizzle to the proceedings.
The stage is set and the curtains are ready to go up on this spectacular project. The fans are waiting with bated breath for the latest offering from their favorite hero. And not just the fans, Tamil cinema lovers everywhere are also anxious for a helping of Ajith Kumar.

So, what is Thala’s schedule on the day of the release?Thala Ajith along with his entire team will travel down to Tirupathi for Lord Balaji darshan on the day Mankatha hitting the screens (August 31st, 2011). It is known that the film’s release is important to the team and very particularly for Ajith as it marks the 50th film in his career.
The theatrical rights of Mankatha have been snapped by Radhika Sarath Kumar’s Radaan Media Works, who have sold out all areas in Tamilnadu at a fancy price. The film will see the light of the day in about 300+ screens in Tamilnadu.

Arjun will play the role of an investigative officer who takes up the task of exposing the bookies. Thala Ajith will play the role of a gambler; then the cat and mouse game begins. Music composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja are already topping the charts and Thala Ajith's salt and pepper look in Mankatha is the latest talk of the town! The film also stars Trisha, Lakshmi Rai, Premji Amaren, Arjun and Vaibhav in prominent roles
Action king Arjun's Maasi in trouble
Producer Y Surender Reddy of Idhudhanda Police – 2 “We learnt that almost 75 per cent of the scenes in Maasi are similar to the film done by Dr Rajashekar which is directed by his wife Jeevitha. Idhudhanda Police -2 is simultaneously being made in Tamil and Telugu. We brought a stay order from Civil Court of Hyderabad to stay the release of the film.
The producer further added “The film is the remake of Hindi film Risk which has Randeep Hooda, Vinod Khanna and Tanushree Dutta in the lead roles. We had snapped the remake rights for the film”.
Maasi is an action entertainer directed by G Kicha. Dhina has composed music for this film, produced by K S Kovai Mani
Mankatha was not created for Ajith - Venkat Prabhu
The film Mankatha which has Ajith and Trisha in the lead roles is being released on 30th of this month.
This film is the most expected not alone by his fans but from all quarters of people. This film is being released by Studio Green throughout Tamil Nadu.
These days there is always a news about this film. Now Venkat Prabhu has given a new information about this film.
Venkat Prabhu while speaking said, "The Mankatha story was not written for Ajith. The role Vinayak was created for Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi.
Vivek Oberoi was supposed to do the lead role in this film. But we did not speak about this film to him. At that point of time, I got a phone call from Ajith. He said, " I heard that you have titled your film as Mankatha. Greetings. It is a good name.
I want to act in a role like Heath Ledger did in the Hollywood film The Dark Knight. Is it possible to make a story for me like that one?" I told him that Mankatha is such a story and told him the crux of the story. He was impressed. He said that the story was good and he is ready to act in it. All this took place in three minutes."
