The
release dates of Sivaji and Dasavatharam
is probably the most debated topic in Kollywood
right now. Both movies are expected to be
ready for an April 14 release. However,
the concerned production houses, AVM and
Oscar Films are not too eager to release
the films together.
Both movies are big budget projects
with several crores riding on them.
With so much at stake, even the usually
flamboyant Oscar Ravichandran is looking
for a risk free approach. Eventhough
the fans would be delighted to see
the titans clashing yet again, the
distributors are wary of the same.
The trade believes that the two films
would release with atleast a month’s
space between them, with either Sivaji
or Dasavatharam making it to the screens
on the 14th of April.
Meanwhile, Sivaji’s distribution
rights are estimated at a whopping
60 crores.
This
news has discouraged several distributors
who were vying for a share of the lucrative
rights. With such a huge price tag, this
Shankar directed film is expected to be
purchased outright by a corporate firm like
Adlabs.
