Posted by admin - August 28th, 2009

So, here’s the final statement confirmed by close sources of director Sasi. The filmmaker’s forthcoming untitled film will have Aarya and Pooja in lead roles.
Although Sasi’s previous “Poo’ didn’t witness good results at box office, the auteur was brimmed with astounding accolades. Producer G Dhananjayan of Moser Baer, who produced this film, has again offered him to produce his next film as well. Well, if you’re expecting this flick to be a slow-paced drama as “Poo’, you’ve come up with a wrong guess. Aye This untitled film will be an action-packed thriller with commercial ingredients. Sasi was on the pursuit of reigning actors and finally zeroed down with hot-pair Aarya and Pooja.
This is the 5 time Aarya and Pooja are teaming up and their previous film “Naan Kadavul’ is sure to win them more awards for this year.

Blog: 2010 Asian Games boasts boffo big business bucks, more expected to join

Posted by admin - August 12th, 2009

The 16th Asian Games is on pace for a record amount of corporate sponsorships in the run-up for next year’s gala show.

    The total amount of corporate sponsorships is already more than four times the amount of sponsorship generated by the 2006 Asian Games in Doha.

    Fang Da’er, director of the Marketing Department of the Guangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee (GAGOC) said Games’ organizers are bullish after attracting a record haul of sponsors, despite the global economic crisis.

    ”We have tried to avoid the impacts of the global financial meltdown since last year,” said Fang, “our hard work has paid off because the initial goal of finding adequate sponsorship was a realized one and a half years ahead of the Games’ opening.”

    So far, 28 companies have signed sponsorship deals with the GAGOC — the largest number in Asian Games’ history.

    ”About five to eight more agreements with big companies like China Southern Airlines are expected to be signed before June,” Fang added.

    Agreements were signed with companies including large multinationals and top domestic firms from the mainland, Hong Kong and Chinese Taipei, he said.

    According to Fang, as many as 23 companies have been authorized to produce officially licensed products for the Games, and 12 more can merchandise the goods.
