Except Chennai rest all area looks good..in Chennai release is having major impact becoz of Jazz cinemas who take total control..already abirami who is pro aiadmk and anti KH allotted less screens for TV..expect the same from Luxe..
But not a big deal, movie done in 3 months,low budget bilingual it will be profitable for all parties like PN..

Watch out - Kamal haad cross all the hurdles like jazz for years..ellathaiyum thaandi poitae irupaar but like many politicians jazz cinemas will take control of tamil industry,annaiku puriyum

Sasikala buys Vedhalam outright
Posted in Tamil Nadu By Ayyappa Prasad On November 3, 2015

Chennai, Nov 3(tamilnaducentral): Sasikala owned Jazz Cinemas has bought the Tamil Nadu distribution rights of Vedhalam. Vedhalam starring Ajith and Shruthi Haasan- Lakshmi Menon is directed by Siva. It is produced by A M Rathinam. Censored with a U certificate, Vedhalam is scheduled for Nov 10th release.

As per the earlier trade reports, Vedhalam was bought by Jazz Cinemas for the Chennai city area distribution rights. Coimbatore area was bought by Sarvam Cinemas, NSC by Pandi Suresh, TT by Subbaiah, Salem by 7G cinemas Siva and Nellai- Kanyakumari by Sekar. Now, in an overnight deal the entire Tamil Nadu distribution rights has been bought by Jazz Cinemas. In short, all the other area distributors will have to deal with Jazz Cinemas.

Jazz Cinemas is a company that is owned by Sasikala relatives and it has been proved through various documents. Jazz acquired the 11 screen multiplex Luxe in Velachery from SPI Cinemas that own Satyam and Escape multiplex.

Vedhalam is getting dubbed as Aavesham in Telugu and getting a release in Andhra, a first for Ajith in eight years. Rathinam who has a clout in Andhra has made this possible. The acquisition of Vedhalam by Jazz Cinemas also ensures that Tamil Nadu entertainment tax will be exempted and thereby a 30% saving for the distributor. Puli was not exempted from ET because the committee cited violence against kids and women. The film had a U certificate, a requisite for seeking ET exemption.
