Pudhiya Geethai

Pudhiya Geethai (New Gita) is a 2003 Indian Tamil-language supernatural action drama written and directed by K. P. Jagan, in his directorial debut. Vijay plays Sarathy, a brilliant and optimistic young man from Chennai whose horoscope, cast at his birth, says he will live only 27 years, and the film also stars Meera Jasmine and Ameesha Patel. It remains Patel's only Tamil film to date. Kalabhavan Mani and Karunas appear in supporting roles, and the songs were composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja with the score by his brother Karthik Raja. The film was first announced as Sarathy, then Geethai, before taking its final title. Released on 8 May 2003, it received mixed reviews and was a commercial failure, and its closing message holds that a positive attitude is essential to success.
