I haven't seen that kinda stuff before. Please correct me if I am wrong. Was Sony, so desperate to get the count up or was it anyone else's obsession/desperation on Youtube records?Quote:

The first look might give a clue to atleast what we can expect. If you look at the best scenes of Chimbu Devan's films he looks like one of the best in business. Somehow he only shows flashes of brilliance. Or maybe that is because he had to work within limitations of budgets and actors. But this is his best high profile mainstream chance so far to make a mark at the box office. I am quietly confident that this film will be way better than the initial apprehensions that Vijay fans might had or might be having :)

They obviously have their own motive of marketing their products by using MCNs massive network. There is a decent write up on the Internet on how this works. Read it when you find time.Quote:

Yes bro. Even on the views, I don't know if they can use same accounts for different products, meaning I don't know if Puli would be used as part of the same MCN account. As for the likes, we know what happened to Aambala trailer too.. and the harsh comments... ;-). This whole trend of maximum likes, views are so misleading... I only wish these translated into the commercial success of a movie too. Then it would be worth tracking it. Right now, it is only used by hardcore fans; with no linkage to box office performance (unfortunately).Quote:
