This year, in Kollywood, a lot is riding on the summer biggies worth around Rs 140 crore. The first of the biggies to release was Surya’s Ayan, on April 3.
The other big budget star movies due are Vijaykanth’s Marriyathai, Arya’s Sarvvam, Vishal’s Thoranai, Jayam Ravi’s Peraanmai, Selvaraghavan’s Aayirathil Oruvan and Sarath Kumar’s Jaggu Bhai.
Nearly a dozen small movies in the Rs 3-6 crore budget range are also to be released during April, May and June. These include films like Anandha Thandavam, Pasanga, Nandhalala, Vaamanan, Krishnaleelai, Modhi Vilayadu, Kunguma Poovum Konjum Puraavum, Rajathi Raja and Nadodigal. “
Love stories made on a small budget, with good music and a story with young actors may also do well in summer,” says Sekhar, a mediator who acts as a middle man between Tamil film producers and distributors.
