Bhagyaraj's 'First Attempt' for Shanthanu

Veteran Tamil filmmaker K. Bhagyaraj has secretly shot a film "First Attempt" to boost his son Shantanu's career. The film was wrapped up in just a few months.

Bhagyaraj, who was hugely disappointed by the failure of his son's launch pad "Sakkarakatti", wanted to give his career a new lease of life and "First Attempt" is an earnest attempt by him towards making Shantanu a saleable hero.

He launched the film with the title "Pudhiya Vaarpugal", but had to change it due to reports that it would be a remake of his eighties blockbuster with the same name.

The film is likely to release sometime in August.
