Aegan and Vaaranam Aayiram – Status report

Ayngaran International, the producer of Aegan is planning a big release for their film. Plans are afoot to release the film in about 150 theatres worldwide. According to the film's US distributors Bharat Creations, 12 prints will be screened in the US. It may be noted that Billa was screened in only six screens. Ayngaran International, which is

marketing the film in a big way, declared that the film will be released on October 24th.

Aegan stars Ajith and Nayanthara, and its music by Yuvan Shankar Raja has already proved to be a chartbuster. The film is directed by choreographer-turned-director Raju Sundaram.

Meanwhile, the Gautham Menon directed venture Vaaranam Aayiram that stars Surya is expected to be released a day prior to Aegan (October 23rd 2008). However, there are a few loose strings that need to be tied up before its release. Sources in Kollywood say that Gemini Films has procured the Tamil Nadu rights of VA from Oscar Films and have priced it really high. The distributors, for this reason, are skeptical in purchasing the film. If this issue is solved, then VA, in all probability, could be released on October 23rd.
