According to reports Papanaasam might release before VR-2 and UV.

'Uthama Villain' postponed to Pongal, 2015?

Uthama Villain - What was supposed to be an Oct 2nd release got postponed to Nov 7th Owing to some pending technical works. Now our trusted source says that the movie might not release this year as the makers have decided to release it for Pongal, 2015.

The other magnum opus ‘Viswaroopam 2’ is also waiting for a long time as the producer, Aascar Ravichandran wants to release ‘I’ first and then the Kamal Andrea starrer after 2-3 weeks. Ravichandran is quite firm in his decision and announced the same on his personal interview with indiaglitz.

Meanwhile, Ulaganayagan is currently busy with ‘Papanasam’ and progressing swiftly. The shoot for this drama thriller is expected to complete around the November end and if other two movies do not reach the finish line then this one will reach the cinema halls before them. Watch this tab to know which of these three will release first.

For the sake of Kamal and Aascar, I hope "I" becomes a financial success and in return, Aascar gives VR2 the same promotional boost "I" had.

It's bad enough Anjaan's flop status led to delays with UV.

Delay in UV release is unexpected.. I thought it would be smooth sailing for UV since the movie is a medium budget one. Moreover the shooting got completed comfortably in 3 months.

Yes. First time Kamal hasn't had a release this year since 10A was in making from 2006-2008 post VV.

In fact, many movies have yet to see light of day. Wondering why the delay? That too being salable ventures and not big budgets like VR1.

I wouldn't be surprised if Papanasam gets released first. There is no CG work involved and post production work should complete sometime next month.

Lingu's mess is impacting UV. Too many ventures at the same time leading to losses. I is also completely done and is impacted by financier's losses elsewhere. Of course, KH is right in the middle of all this.

But if I is in financial loss, how did Mr Ravichandran deliever a grand event just for the sake of audio launch that too roping in Arnaald? If it were in a finance crisis, how is Vikram/Shankar still doing PP and Dubbing in other languages (Hindi/Telugu)?

This is sadly reminding me of that Pyramid Samira fiasco post 10A when Marmayogi was launched only to be dropped due to Kuselan loss (and later a court case against Kamal during UPO release time.)

No, I is not a financial loss. In fact, based on the interest it is generating, he is trying to sell in other areas including Hindi. Arnold and now Jackie Chan for Telugu/Hindi audio release is all for that one reason only. He is trying to sell I at a very high price to get out of all the financial loss he has incurred in the past year (he has produced some movies and has been a very active distributor). Even during I production in the last 6 months, it seems they had money issues and there was many months gap where no work was done. Vikram got sick and that was also being told as one reason.

Eventually, I would release. But if the result is sub-par then it creates issues for VR-2 for sure.

How can it be medium budget? Is Nammavar acting for free?
I read that Papanasam is given free dates and he asked to pay him after the film runs and they get money. If Nammavar does the same for all movies, Marudanayagam and other dream projects will never happen.
Atleast for commercial movies like UV, he should have got his remuneration !!
