Diwali
is
a
special
season
for
film
industry.
The
movie
releasing
during
this
time
have
often
done
good
business.
Especially,
if
it
is
an
A-list
actor's
movie,
it
has
always
got
an
overwhelming
response
from
the
zealous
fans
of
the
star.
Considering
this
factor,
our
filmmakers
try
hard
to
release
movies
during
the
festive
season.
Well,
for
this
Diwali,
Vijay's
Thuppakki
and
Karthi's
Alex
Pandian
will
light
the
screens.
It
was
officially
announced
recently
by
the
makers
of
Thuppakki
that
the
film
would
release
for
Diwali.
Now,
we
hear
that
Alex
Pandian
will
hit
the
screens
during
the
same
time.
Though
it
has
not
been
official,
sources
close
to
the
production
house
have
confirmed
that
the
makers
of
the
Karthi
starrer
movie
have
decided
to
release
on
the
second
week
of
November.
However,
the
date
of
the
release
has
not
been
confirmed
and
it
is
unlikely
to
release
on
the
day
Thuppakki
hit
the
screens.
Either
Alex
Pandian
will
release
a
day
or
two
before
Thuppakki
or
it
will
release
after
the
Vijay's
movie
hit
the
screens.
The
official
announcement
on
the
movie
will
be
made
soon.
Earlier,
it
was
said
that
Alex
Pandian
would
release
on
September
12
but
as
the
product
was
not
ready
on
time,
the
release
was
delayed.
Alex
Pandian
is
directed
by
Suraj
and
produced
by
KE
Gnanavelraja.
It
is
a
mass-masala
movie
and
it
stars
Karthi,
Anushka
Shetty
and
Santhanam
in
the
key
roles.
However,
Thuppakki
is
an
action
movie
directed
by
AR
Murugadoss
and
produced
by
Kalaipuli
S
Dhanu.
It
stars
Vijay,
Kajal
Aggarwal
and
Vidyut
Jamwal
in
the
important
characters.
