Interesting September line up!

The countdown for Deepawali in Kollywood is started now. Just 55 days ahead for the biggest festive season of Kollywood box office, most of the small and medium budget producers want to mint some cash through their releases and avoid a clash with biggies.

The release schedule in the month of September as per trade sources is as follows. Already the press previews also has been started. The Schedule:

September 5- Venkat Prabhu’s Saroja (doubtful), Sangeetha’s Dhanam, Majeeth’s Ki.Mu.
September 12- S.A.Chandrasekher’s Panthyam (Vijay in a special appearance!), Priyadarshan’s Poi Solla Porom
September 19- Cheran’s Raman Thediya Seethai, Kalaipuli Thaanu’s Sakkarakati
September 26- Surya’s Vaaranam Aayiram, Shakthi starrer Mahesh Saranya Mattum Palar and debutant Krishna’s (Vishnuvardhan’s brother) Ali Baba
However this is not a final release schedule, as producers keep changing their release date due to many reasons. Still the picture is not clear in the release date of Saroja.

Sarath Kumar to play lead role in a Kannada movie!

Sarath Kumar plays in a tri lingual movie under the direction of famous Kannada film maker Om Prakash.
He will play as a commando on the trail of international terrorists in the movie.
The film will be shot in the exclusive locations of Kabul, the capital of Afganistan. Apart from this location, it is to be shot in Macau, Hong Kong, Bangalore, Madurai and Chennai.
The film will go on floors in November. It is scheduled for an April 2009 release, publicists added.

Om Prakash has so far directed 23 Kannada films.
According to a press release issued by producer Shankar Gowda’s office, the untitled venture will be made in Hindi, Tamil and Kannada and its music will be scored by Vidyasagar.
Currently, Sarath Kumar is busy shooting for ‘Jaggubhai’, an action thriller being directed by K.S. Ravi Kumar and his home production ‘1977’.

‘Jaggubhai’ was touted as the next major venture starring Rajnikanth after ‘Baba’, but Rajnikanth withdrew from the project due to his differences with the story.

It can be recalled that Sarath Kumar strongly hits the Kannadigas and pro Kannada activists during the fast organised by film personalities in Hogenakkal water issue. After this fast, the Kannada activists strongly condemned Sarathkumar and owed to protest against his future releases in Karnataka.

Let’s wait and watch how Sarath Kumar manages the Kannada activists during the release of his straight Kannada film!
