We know that ‘ostentation’ is not
the middle word of the AVM house. But, they are
not penny pinchers too. This was evident once
again at the Tirupathi audio release which was
held as a simple but tasteful event. All the arrangements
were excellent without the filmi frills and most
importantly the function started on the dot. Over
now to the proceedings.
AVM studio lawns which was the venue bore a festive
look. Two ushers welcomed the guests with an ornate
umbrella which resembled the original at the shrine
at Tirumala. Only this had Ajith and Sada’s
stills on it.

| AVM’s
hospitality is legendary in Kollywood. All
the invitees were offered a buffet of light
vegetarian refreshments. The VIPs started
pouring in. AVM Saravanan and MS Guhan looked
quite relaxed and went about chatting with
some VIPs. (Of course, they have reason to
be happy as the film is almost complete except
for two song sequences). The food was simple
but tasty. A hot tava with a chef was on duty
and offered delicious special masala dosa. |

Perarasu,
the director was quite busy on his
toes receiving the guests. Ajith and
Shalini who looked magical in her
blue salwar suit arrived at 6 pm.
There was a stir as everyone wanted
to have a closer look at Thala. He
sported the Naan Kadavul look with
a pony tail. Sada came in a ravishing
black and blue outfit with matching
ear rings. She was accompanied by
her father.
The function kicked off at 6.30 pm.
Chief guests Nalli Kuppusamy Chettiar,
Sri Krishna Sweets Murali, Ajith,
Perarasu and Shalini were on the stage.
There was a huge still of Ajith in
the back-drop. SP Muthuraman conducted
the function. He requested Nalli Kuppusamy
to release the audio. Amidst a roaring
applause from the audience he released
the cover and Sri Krishna sweets Murali
received the first copy |

SP
Muthuraman proposed thanks and requested
everyone to be present at the screening
of trailer cum song preview of the movie
at AVM’s a/c theatre inside the campus. |

A
trailer and Tirupathi Vandha Tiruppam song
were screened. The song is a huge sizzler
and Ajith’s performance is simply
out of the world. Bharadwaj’s orchestration
for this opening number is superb. Thala
fans can up their collars. The song will
be a surefire hit. Ajith looks quite improved
in his dance especially with a leaner frame.
Since, the theater could accommodate only
125 persons at a time, there were three
rounds of screenings. Ajith and Shalini
stood outside and enquired the first batch
of people who came out. Everyone congratulated
him and understandably there was a glow
of pride in his beautiful wife’s face.

Sujatha, Manobala, Bharadwaj, and the whole
unit of Tirupathi were present. The function
got over in a little over an hour.

The
cassettes are available at leading stores
and it is reported that in the southern
districts of Tamilnadu, they are already
vanishing like hot cakes.
Fans
were disappointed that Thala did not speak.
Ajith kept quiet keeping his latest trend
of letting his films speak before he uttered
a word. But some press persons caught
up with him for a few sound bytes and
he simply said, “The film has come
out well. And I feel absolutely good”.

| Perarasu
dressed in black said: Tirupathi would be a bigger
hit than my earlier films, Tirupachi and Sivakasi.
AVM
Saravanan gave the punch by saying, ”Now
the ball is in people’s court. We have done
our job well. It is for them to make the film
a big hit”.
As
the song goes, it seems that Thala will get thiruppam
after Tirupathi. |
