Jackpot Movie First look
Just like how Suriya and Jyotika proved to be successful both on screen and off screen, their association as a producer and lead artist also is proving to be immensely successful.
Yes, films like 36 Vayathinile and Magalir Mattum, which had Jyotika playing the lead and produced by Suriya under 2D Entertainment, have been very successful.
Now, Jyotika will be seen in a film produced by Suriya under his production house, 2D Entertainment, for the third time. Titled “Jackpot”, the film has been directed by S.Kalyan.
It is a well known fact that all of Jyotika’s films after her come back after 8 years, like 36 Vayathinile, Naachiyaar, Magalir Mattum, Kaatrin Mozhi have not only been commercially successful but also critically acclaimed. Sources in the know say that “Jackpot” is likely to join the club of blockbuster films.
Sources from the unit say that the shooting of “Jackpot”, has now been completed and post-production is in full swing.
Apart from Jyotika, the film also features actress Revathi, actors Yogi Babu, Anand Raj, Mansoor Ali Khan, Mottai Rajendran and Jagan among others.
Kalyan, who has directed this film, is a man who is widely recognized by the masses as the man behind the hilarious comedy flick Gulebagavali. Like his earlier film, this film too has its base set as slapstick action comedy.
As Jackpot has been produced by Suriya, people believe that it will have a good social message to offer as well.
Anand Kumar has cranked the camera for this film while Vishal Chandrasekar has scored its music. Vijay is the film’s editor. Rajsekar KarpoorasundaraPandian is the co-producer of this film.
Also, what is significant is the fact that Jackpot happens to be 2D Entertainment’s 11th project.
Mrs Maggie Amritraj, Mother of Hollywood Producer Ashok Amritraj Passes Away
On April 20th, over the Easter weekend, iconic personality Mrs. Maggie Amritraj passed away peacefully at her home in Chennai.
Mrs Amritraj was the mother of Wimbledon Tennis players Anand, Vijay and Ashok, who is also India’s most famous & successful Film Producer in Hollywood.
Mrs Amritraj was an extraordinary and unique personality who was a teacher, mentor, role model, dreamer, disciplinarian, wife and mother.
Mrs Amritraj was a fiercely independent lady who built a great business but family always came first. She bought the first tennis racket for each of her children from the money she made. How does a young lady growing up in Chennai in the 1950/60’s dream so big? Maggie took 3 boys who used to run down sterling road behind kites and created 3 Wimbledon tennis stars, 2 UN Ambassadors (Ashok currently and Vijay Formerly) and a Hollywood Movie Mogul. These were Maggie’s creations with the boys as supporting players.
Mrs Amritraj instilled in the boys a strong sense of family and roots. As a result each year, though all 3 lived in LA, the boys would spend Christmas and New Year in chennai with their parents.
This sense of strong family is now instilled by the 3 sons into their families and children. Maggie and Robert Amritraj’s legacy continues thru their sons and grand children.
‘Chevalier’ Dr. Ashok Amritraj, h.c.
U.N. India Goodwill Ambassador
Chairman and CEO
