Dasavatharam

Dasavatharam hasn’t yet released, and it already seems to have hit the jackpot. For perhaps the first time in Tamil movie history, a famous Hollywood studio has purchased the distribution rights for Canada from Aascar films. The studio? None other than Walt Disney. Disney will release the movie in several major multiplexes with as many as 18 prints. Normal for an Indian movie releasing in India, but for an Indian movie in North America this is huge. At last the ardent Tamil movie fans in Canada can see a Tamil movie in digital projection with state of the art surround sound and in a movie complex which will be showing, alongside Dasavatharam, blockbuster Hollywood hits. Have Tamil movies arrived, or not?

    Always better if you mention a source to blame the news item on.
