Jeeva is back in action after a small hiatus following his marriage. He plays the lead role in ‘Siva Manasula Sakthi’ (SMS), directed by Rajesh M. The movie, which was launched on March 8, has a story revolving around a love, peppered with comedy. The film introduces Anuya, a new heroine, to Kollywood. The launch function, held in Sathyam Cinemas, had a screening of a few clipping from the movie. Though the dialogues have shades of obscene, the director denies any such implications. “The dialogues have only single meaning”, declares the director. Few would have had any doubt as to which is that ‘single’ meaning. Jeeva, who spoke on the occasion, was all in praise for the story. “I heard this story two years back and was impressed very much. We thought of producing the movie under the banner of Super Good Films but we had to postponed the idea, as we had to complete ‘E’. Now some other company is producing the movie”, said the actor. He did not comment on the suggestive dialogues.
