The story of three guys wooing a girl who has just moved into a street they live in, might not be the best romantic story of our times but, throw in some comedy and some actors with the best timing, you get a potential blockbuster – which is what happened with KLTA.

Trade Talk

Producer Santhanam is as successful as actor Santhanam and the former’s debut venture is a superhit.

Public Talk

Santhanam has brought Powerstar into the mainstream. Is there any stopping him now?

Collection in Chennai (Weekdays) : Rs. 14,34,175

KLTA’s title derives inspiration from a product commercial and the movie itself is a tongue in cheek reference to three blokes who are vying for attention from a beautiful girl who just moved into their locality. Santhanam and Power Star bring the roof down with puns and witty dialogues.

Trade Talk :

KLTA has already achieved the superhit status what with collections still pouring in from release centers.

Public Talk :

The movie has been an extremely successful venture for Santhanam in his first production venture.

No. Shows in Chennai  (Weekdays) : 432

Collection in Chennai (Weekdays) : Rs. 47,33,880

This minimum budget, no frills comedy is proof that an engaging movie neither has to be an expensive production nor should it have a stellar star cast. Santhanam and Powerstar Srinivasan ensure that there is not one moment of tedium in KLTA.

Trade Talk :

Already declared a superhit, the movie is still going good in few of the screened centers, adding up to its moolah.

Public Talk :

Although there are traces of the cult hit Bhagyaraj movie ‘Indru Poi Naalai Vaa’, KLTA stands on its own merit.

Comedy sells and how! Santhanam, one of the superstars of comedy in Tamil films, knows it well enough that he brought a perfect cast together and assembled a movie that is a total sellout.

Trade Talk :

In its third week, KLTA hasn’t lost its steam and is still going strong.

Public Talk :

Seems only Vishwaroopam could topple KLTA’s collections!

KLTA is a comical threesome with Santhanam, Powerstar Srinivasan and Sethu in lead roles. It’s funny and unpretentious and that is probably the reason it works well.

Trade Talk :

The good opening and overwhelmingly enthusiastic responses are only making KLTA soar high in collections at the box-office. Superhit written all over it.

Public Talk :

Everyone is busy talking about Laddu, with Powerstar leading the way.

KLTA is a comical threesome with Santhanam, Powerstar Srinivasan and Sethu in lead roles. It’s funny and unpretentious and that is probably the reason it works well.

Trade Talk :

Of the Pongal releases, KLTA had a good opening and the positive word of mouth and reviews could uplift the movie’s collections even more.

Public Talk :

If Santhanam alone isn’t enough, there is also the unintentionally funny Srinivasan! It’s a laugh riot!
