50 days to Diwali!

Diwali (November 8), is just 50 days away, and Kollywood is getting ready to celebrate the festival of lights. This year, fireworks are expected at the Diwali box-office, as it is going to be the biggest ever clash in recent times. Take a look at the delicacies to be served in Tamil Nadu theatres this Diwali, which is the second biggest season, after Pongal, for the audiences. In alphabetic order of the stars, the likely releases are- Ajit’s Billa, Cheran’s Piravom Sandhipom Silambarasan’s Kaalai, Surya’s Vel, Vijay’s Azhagiya Tamizh Mahan and Vikram’s Bheema. In Hollywood or even Bollywood, the first copy of these films would have been ready by now, but in Kollywood, the post production work, release schedule, and financial haggling and settlement goes on till a few hours before the release! So nobody, not even God, can predict which film will make it to the screen on the promised day.
