Our cine stars may be busy battling vile villains on the silver screen, to save a life or even the world, but when the director signals 'wrap up', they shed their glitzy guises and become simple earth dwellers like everyone else! Going through the same changes, joys and trials like everyone else. Right now it seems like baby season in tinsel town, with a host of stars anticipating a baby or busy spoiling their newborn bundles of joy!
Unable to be separated from his four-month-old baby and lovely wife Jyothika, Suriya has taken them along to the US where he is currently busy shooting for Gautam Menon’s Varanamaayiram. In the Bharathiraja homestead, celebrations are in full swing following the birth of Manoj’s baby girl! Manoj, who married Nandana last year, has turned father and director Bharathiraja is all set to take on the new avatar of grandfather as he awaits the return of child and mother from Calicut.
Ultimate star Ajith, on the other hand, in spite of his solemn visage, breaks into a warm smile when you ask him about his expectant wife. For this star couple, their child will bring them ultimate joy. Shalini is expected to deliver their first child later this month, or in the first week of January. After being immersed for weeks together in the making of Billa, his biggest movie yet, the star has now dedicated every waking hour to his wife, keeping himself alert and anticipating her needs. At this point, all he wishes for is the good health of mother and child! So do we!
Arun Vijay, whose latest movie Thavam served as proof to the latent potential within him, has more reason to celebrate than just the success of the movie. His wife, gave him an unforgettalbe gift last month by announcing that she is four months pregnant! What better gift could she have given him?!
He may not be as glamorous as some heroes, but he is making what could easily be one of the most stylish movies in Tamil cinema. He is Susi Ganeshan, the man behind Kanthasamy. And as he gives shape to what is expected to be a sure-fire blockbuster with Vikram and Shriya in the lead, his wife is busy tending to their infant boy. Kanthasamy will probably be dedicated to this newborn!
Babies, babies and more babies! Here’s wishing all the new parents and parents-to-be good health, happiness and prosperity!
