இரும்புக்கோட்டை முரட்டு சிங்கம்
28 வருடங்களுக்குப் பிறகு தமிழில் வந்திருக்கும் கௌபாய் படம். ஆஹா என்று கொண்டாடவும் முடியாத, அடச்சே என்று ஒதுக்கவும் முடியாத மிடில் கிளாஸை சேர்ந்தவன் சிம்புதேவனின் இந்த கௌபாய்.
ஹீரோவோட ஊர் ஜெய்சங்கர்புரம். இந்த ஜெய்சங்கர் வேறு யாருமில்லை, நடிகர் ஜெய்சங்கரேதான். நிறைய கௌபாய் படங்களில் நடித்தவர் என்பதால் ஊருக்கு நடுவில் ஒரு சிலையும் வைத்திருக்கிறார்கள். இவர்களுக்கு வில்லன் இரும்புக்கோட்டையை ஆளும் கிழக்குக்கட்டை. ஹாலிவுட்டில் கௌபாய் படங்களில் தூள் கிளப்பிய கிளிண்ட் ‘ஈஸ்ட்வுட்’டின் தமிழ்ப்படுத்துதல்தான் கிழக்குக்கட்டை. வில்லன் அல்லவா? வில்லாதி வில்லன் நமது அசோகனின் சிலையை கிழக்குக் கோட்டையில் நிறுவியிருக்கிறார்கள்.
ஹீரோவுக்கும், வில்லனுக்கும் இப்படி தமிழ் சினிமாவை வைத்தே ஒரு பேக்ராப்பை உருவாக்கியிருக்கும் சிம்புதேவனின் கற்பனைக்கு ஒரு கைகுலுக்கல். கதையும் பெரிதாக பழுதில்லை.
கிழக்குக்கட்டையின் அக்கிரமங்களை எதிர்க்கும் ஜெய்சங்கர்புரத்து சிங்கம்தான் (லாரன்ஸ்) ஹீரோ. ஒரு சண்டையில் தப்பாட்டம் ஆடி சிங்கத்தை சின்னாபின்னமாக்கிவிடுகிறான் கிழக்குக்கட்டை (நாசர்). தலைவன் இல்லாமல் தவிக்கும் ஜெய்சங்கர்புரத்தைச் சேர்ந்த நாலு பேர் தோற்றத்தில் சிங்கம் போலவே இருக்கும் ஷோலேபுரத்து சிங்காரத்தை கடத்தி வந்து சிங்கம் போலவே உலவ விடுகிறார்கள். இது கிழக்குக்கட்டையின் ஆட்களுக்கு கிலியை ஏற்படுத்துகிறது.
இந்நிலையில் கிழக்குக்கட்டை தேடிக் கொண்டிருக்கும் புதையல் இருக்கும் மேப் ஜெய்சங்கர்புரத்துக்காரர்கள் கையில் கிடைக்கிறது. மேப்பை தருகிறோம், எங்களை நிம்மதியாக இருக்கவிடு என்கிறார்கள் ஜெய்சங்கர்புரத்து மக்கள். ஆனால் கிழக்குக்கட்டை புதையலையும் நீங்கதான் எடுத்துத்தர வேண்டும் என்கிறான். சிங்கம் அண்ட் கோ புதையலை எடுத்தார்களா? கிழக்குக்கட்டையின் கொட்டம் அடங்கியதா? கிளைமாக்ஸ்.
உலகில் கௌபாய்கள் எங்கு தோன்றினார்கள், எங்கெல்லாம் வாழ்கிறார்கள் என்று சின்சியராக படத்தை ஆரம்பிக்கும் போது அட ஒரு வித்தியாசமான படம் என்று நிமிர்ந்து உட்காருகிறோம். அடுத்த காட்சியிலேயே, அப்படியெல்லாம் இல்லை, இம்சை அரசன் மாதிரிதான் இதுவும் என்று பொங்கிய பாலில் பன்னீர் தெளிக்கிறார்கள்.

Dutch boy survives in Libya Plance Crash
Rescue workers examine the debris of Afriqiyah airline flight 8U771 at Tripoli airport May 12,... A Libyan Airbus jet crashed early on Wednesday as it tried to land in Tripoli airport, killing 103 people on board, most of them Dutch, leaving a young Dutch boy the sole survivor, officials said.
The Airbus A330-200, which had only been in service since September, was flying from Johannesburg to the Libyan capital when it crashed just short of the runway around 6:00 a.m (0400 GMT), the airline and planemaker said.
Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende said there were several dozen Dutch passengers on board the aircraft. Libyan officials said 22 of the victims were Libyans, but they gave no details of the other nationalities on board.
"Everybody is dead, except for one child," Libyan Transport Minister Mohamed Zidan told a news conference at Tripoli airport. The plane was carrying 93 passengers and 11 crew, Libyan officials and executives from the airline said.
The minister said investigators were working to establish the cause of the crash but he ruled out terrorism.
He told reporters the survivor was a 10-year-old Dutch child who did not have life-threatening injuries. "The child is in good condition and is in hospital undergoing checks," he said.
Reuters pictures from the crash site showed the ground carpeted with small pieces of debris from the plane and passengers' personal effects, including a Dutch-language guide book to South Africa.
Only the tail fin, decorated with state-owned Afriqiyah Airways' red, green and yellow insignia, was more or less intact, standing upright but leaning at an angle.
A Reuters reporter at the airport said ambulances were ferrying bodies of the victims to hospital mortuaries. Libyan officials said they had recovered dozens of bodies.
BLACK BOXES RECOVERED
A spokesman for Dutch Motorists' Association ANWB, which has an emergency assistance service for Dutch people abroad, said that 61 Dutch nationals were killed in the crash.
Saleh Ali Saleh, head of the airline's legal department, told Reuters by telephone that the plane's black boxes had been recovered from the crash site in Tripoli and an investigation was underway.
"The deaths were probably due to the impact as I did not hear any report of a fire. The plane was travelling fast as it was still short of the runway when it crashed," Saleh said.
Planemaker Airbus issued a statement confirming it had manufactured the plane involved in the crash. "Airbus will provide full technical assistance to the authorities responsible for the investigation into the accident," it said.
The crashed aircraft was delivered from the production line in September 2009 and had accumulated approximately 1,600 flight hours in some 420 flights, Airbus added.
The aircraft is the same type as Air France flight 447, which crashed in the Atlantic on June 1 last year. The cause of that crash has not been firmly identified.
Afriqiyah Airways executives said the crash was the first in the history of the airline, which was established in 2001.
Airline staff said they had no more details about passengers' nationalities.
"We extend our deepest sympathy to the families and friends of the victims," a statement from the airline said.

71 yr.Elderly Indian beaten in racial attaack
A 71-year-old man's false teeth were knocked out in what is believed to have been a racially motivated attack by a mob.
The attackers yelled "curries" as they beat him and another Indian man, 36, and smashed windows of a vehicle and a house in Hastings on Saturday night.
Detective Lisa Tod said two drunk men went to the back of a house and confronted a group of people having a quiet get-together.
The pair were aggressive and violent towards the group before leaving. They returned a short time later with 10 to 15 men and continued their attack, she said.
Five Indian men were able to barricade themselves inside the house. The two injured men were treated at Hawke's Bay Hospital and discharged.
Seven men, all employees of dairy and restaurant owner Rakesh Kumar, were having dinner at an Oliphant Rd house when they were startled by banging on the windows. When they went outside they were attacked.
Mr Kumar, the owner of several businesses in the city, believed the "terrifying" incident was racially motivated.
He said the 71-year-old had his false teeth knocked out in the attack.
A man, 21, is due to appear in Hastings District Court today on multiple charges of assault, wilful damage and disorderly behaviour.
Police said they were seeking information on others who may have been involved.
