Wanalee 2010 fitting pictures

I should have realized, this remake is going to be a big production. Let me give you the info. It’s produced by Piyawadee Maleenon, she produced “Taddao Bussaya” the remake with Por Thrisadee and Punch. It will be directed by Chookiat Sakveerakul, director of the Thai hit film “Love of Siam” back in 2007.

Cast and Characters:
“Por” Nattawut Skidjai as Sayam
Mew Laknara Piatha as Witchuda or Wit
James Reungsak as Sorat
Pongpat Wachirabunjong as Seua Son
“Ice” Waraphat Pechsathit  as Rithi Rong
“Oom” Lakhana Watnuangsiri as Sumarn
“Yuan” Nithichai Josamornsoontorn as Deputy Werachat
“Oh” Yada Chotichutrakun as  Sotsuay
Montree Jenaksorn as Khun Luang Phisan
“Tuk” Yanee Jongwisut as Khun Nai Jinda
“Mae Aed” Chomchai Chatwilai as Khun Ying Somsawat
“Mae Neng” Metta Roongrat as Nomkhlam
Richard Ghiani as Dek Der
“Pee Thai” Aekphan Banleurit as Ai Gong
“Chai” Weerachai Hatgowit as Ai Lat
“Fluke” Sikrinot Phonyong as Joy

Yea, I don’t know half of these people. This is like the beautified version of “Wanalee”, the original was edgy with average looking people. Sorat was a porky and kinda pathetic. He couldn’t get a date even if his life depended on it. All of the female police officers made fun of him because of his porky-ness.  Look at the modern version of Sorat played by James–my god, dude is tall and handsome. What the heck. Where they going with this lakorn. Last night, I watched little bit of Wanalee the original. It was dirty and spunky compared to what the remake will be. I just don’t know about this.

Winners at the first annual Nataraja awards 2009

– May 16, 2010Posted in: Thai stars

Compared to other awards show in Thailand, the Nataraja awards was a pretty classy affair. No one wore jeans and the setting didn’t look cheap. The trophy is something I would want as a decorative piece in my house, it was a beautiful gold trophy of a Thai traditional dancer.

The event brought tears to many peoples’ eyes twice, first with  “Aof” Pongpat Wachirabunjong’s acceptance speech and the second was when Nok Sinjai, Nok Jariya, and Aof Pongpat sang the song “Kwarm Fun An Song Sot (The highest dream)”. Before singing, the three pledged their allegiance to the King and asked the people of Thailand to stop the disagreement and fighting. The song was profound and it caused many to weep.

It wasn’t all gloom and tears, Anne Thongprasom did bring in laughs when she didn’t realize which lakorn she won the award for. She was too excited. Last night, she won the best actress award for her role in “Soot Sanaeha (A recipe for Love)”, but Anne mistaken thought she won it  for her role in  “Borisud Bumbut Kaen(The Revenge Therapy Company)” and started thanking her co-star Aum Atichart and the crew for that lakorn. Then someone from the audience clued her in that she was thanking the wrong people. Anne then said, ‘what series did I win this award for?’ Everyone laughed and “Captain” Puthanate Hongmanop who presented the Best Actress award, showed her the card. It was for “Soot Sanaeha (A recipe for Love)”. OPPS!

Winners:

Aof Pongpat stirs up controversy at the Nataraja Awards

By
Lyn
– May 16, 2010Posted in: Thai stars

The political state of Thailand is in chaos,  violent clashes between red shirt protesters and the Thai military continues. Understandably, everyone is on edge–feeling distress when it comes to the discussion of Thai politics. When “Aof” Pongpat Wachirabunjong, respected director and actor, went up on stage last night to accept his award in the best supporting actor category in a series at the first annual Nataraja Awards (Performing Arts Awards), Aof stirred up controversy when he proclaimed his love for the King. His acceptance speech has generated hundreds of comments, probably more than a thousand now from Thai netizens who are debating (fighting) among each other as to whether Aof’s acceptance speech was a political one or one to unite the people without taking a political stance.

For his acceptance speech, he started off with a joke: “since I was born, I have never gotten this award before”. Everyone laughed because it’s the first annual Nataraja awards. He thanked the Confederation of the Thai Radio and Television Associations, the sponsor, the host, and the presenter of the Nataraja awards. Then he began to talk about Thailand and the King:

“This is an award I received for playing a father role. I would like your permission now to talk about our father (the King of Thailand) briefly na ha. A father is a pillar to a house  (Thailand) na ha. My house is very big. We have many people living together. Since I was born, this house was very beautiful–beautiful and homely. For it to be like this, the ancestors of our father, lost sweat, lost blood, traded their lives to be able to build this house. Up to this point, this father, he is still fatigued in keeping up with this house and in caring for the happiness of each life under this house. If someone is angry at another, whoever, and then passed that anger down to our father, hate our father, insult our father, and have thoughts about chasing our father out of this house. I would have to walk up to that person and say, if you hate our father, and do not love our father anymore, you should leave, because this is our father’s house. Because this is our father’s kingdom. I love our King. I believe that everyone here loves our King too. We are the same color. This crown on my head I bestow for the King. Thank you!”

By
Lyn
– March 20, 2010Posted in: Thai stars

They won, oh okay, don’t they always win. Of course, nothing wrong with that. Ken and Anne won best actress and actor for their work in “Soot Sanaeha (A recipe for love)” at the 24th annual TV Gold awards today.

The complete list of the winners that I care about:

Best lakorn: “Yok Lai Mek (Jade Cloud)”, Ch3

Best Actor: Ken Theeradeth for “Soot Sanaeha (A recipe for love)”

What Ken said about his award:”I have to thank all of the staff members for making “Soot Sanaeha (A recipe for Love)” turn out great. You have made me appear like I can cook. Everywhere I go, people compliment me on my cooking and asked if I was good at cooking just like in the lakorn. I want to thank P’Aeo the director, Da Hathairat and everyone on the staff for making this lakorn turn out life-life. As for this TV gold award, I did not have any expectations because my character for this lakorn was light compared to other nominees, I want to give this Anne more so. She had many characters to play and she played it well. After this, I’m not going to celebrate, I’m going home to rest.”
