Kandasamy Vikram Stills

On Sunday it has been a wonderful launch for Vikram and Shriya starrer Kanthaswamy at Devi Paradise theatre in Chennai. Most of all the big shot of Kollywood gathered under one roof for the grand launch of the Kanthaswamy movie. The theatre was colorful for the wonderful occasion and the cast and crew of Kanthaswamy were among those present.

To concur with the grand launch of the Kanthaswamy movie, the crew announced taking two villages in Madurai district to provide developmental activities.

Speaking on the occasion, Susi Ganesan said, “We have chosen to launch the Kanthaswamy movie in an exclusive way and in the presence of two villages, which are accepted by us. We have provided infra structure facilities including schools, roads and drinking water facilities for them. The movie focuses on the theme of developing the rural area”.

Vikram showed up as Kanthaswamy on the stage and guaranteed that he would make every effort for creating an evenhanded society. Speaking on the movie launch, lyricist Vairamuthu expressed his admiration for such a grand launch. He said Vikram is a committed actor and the different outfits suit him well. Music composer Mani Sharma spoke about the efforts taken to churn the trailer.

The producer Kalaipuli S Thanu thanked those involved in the movie for coming up with a big launch and expressed his confidence that the movie would shape up well.

Bheema Vikram Trisha Stills

It looks like Vikram's long overdue Bheema may make it to the theatres on January 11, 2008 as Pongal release! The date has also a significance that five years back, Dhool the film that made Vikram a superstar was released on the same day!

The grapevine is abuzz that producer A.M Ratnam is in the final round of negotiations with Ayngaran International to swing the deal. Remember it was Ayngaran who released the trailer of the film, which has been appreciated by the audiences.

What really makes Bheema hot, a film which has been two years in production is the current craze for superstar biggies. Vikram is a superstar inspite of not having a release for two years. He commands a terrific opening and if Bheema is marketed like Sivaji or a Billa it stands to make big money for all concerned.

The next Tamil biggie scheduled to release is Kamal Hassan's Dasavatharam, some time in summer of 2008. So the trade is anxious and eager to have a biggie for Pongal, a very good season for Tamil films.

And what better movie than Bheema, which has a superstar, excellent hit music, awesome action, glamour, glitz and packaged slickly by a director with a proven track record for making family entertainers!
