Director Thirukumaran is excited that his film with Sivakarthikeyan and Hansika, Maan Karate, is shaping up well. He���s finished the first schedule of the film in Chennai, and is gearing up to begin the next from August 12. Thiru says, ���The term ���
maan karate��� is a very north Madras lingo. When someone finds himself surrounded by a bunch of rowdies, he uses the term ���maan karate aayidu���.
While many think it���s about using some karate techniques, he will actually be telling his friends to escape from the place. The film will be an entertaining story about a person who lands in sticky situations.���
While Sivakarthikeyan plays an irresponsible youngster, Hansika plays a bubbly sports enthusiast. ���She plays the daughter of a Tamil professor, and you can find her at every place where a sports competition is taking place. But of course, she is not a participant at the event; she���s merely a spectator. She finds it satisfying to sit in the stadium with the audience and whistle and cheer for the players,��� the director laughs.
So, how is Hansika and Sivakarthikeyan���s chemistry working out onscreen? ���It���s a fresh jodi and they have already started shooting their combination scenes,��� he informs.
