Finally they sign of by saying that even their superstar SRK flopped Ra1, but can the god of Indian Cinema make a change with Kochadaiiyan.
If you wish to know the exact word-by-word details, let me know I can do it for you this evening.
And in the begining : Md. Tarik ... LoL. pesikittey irrukumbothu ... chup chup-nu off panitanga ammani ... LoL
Provided that the movie would release surely, I foresee the following possible scenarios
1.The movie would come up with a great quality and not like teaser. (In this case, all the stake holders would be happy)
2. The movie would come up with a decent quality, may not be perfect but still worth to be called as passable effort.(In this case, the reception would be a mixed bag, but still the movie might coverup its costs)
3. The animation part may be average but still KSR's screenplay,dialogues and Rahman's music might save the show upto larger extent(In this case, movie might coverup its costs)
4. The animation might be very bad with good story & screenplay (Hard to guess, the move might fall on any way)
5.Both the animation part and story part might be average(Hard to guess, the move might fall on any way)
6.As dilbert mentioned, this movie might appeal to age group of 8-14 alone.(In this case, movie might coverup its costs, thanks to the family audience along with kids)
7.The movie would be bad altogether,including story, screenplay and animation(In this case, movie would be a complete disaster)
My assumption is that any Rajini movie with atleast something worth mentioning would attract larger audience. So scenarios (2) and (3) would be enough for the movie to have a decent run. Scenario (1) would ensure repeated viewing which in turn would increase the revenue largely.
I think, Scenario 1 is unlikely, I am hoping the movie would fall somewhere between scenarios (2) and (3) because the investors would be much more concerned about the ROI than us
I completely agree with the technological challenges and all the limitations including budget, director being a first timer, difficulties in understanding the technologies and effective usage of it etc.,but soundarya should be careful with her marketing statements
The better option available for the team is to first completely analyze the product, identify all the unique points of the movie, have a positioning statement that would list the unique points alone, hire a good PR professional and make the unique points alone prominent in all the communications, So that audience would atleast have an idea of what to expect from the movie
:) What I mean to say is KSR would not get into so much detailing about pandiyan dynasty. To the maximum, he would have written the glorifying story of a warrior. SR would not fit into this format and whether he depicted the exact culture of cholas or not is a different story...Quote:

So hopefully KSR and Soundarya have got their acts together on this.
