It

on
the
same
date
and
they
will
battle
it
out
for
the
supremacy
at
the
collection
centres.
Well,
the
clash
is
between

other
than

Maattrraan
and
Kamal
Hassan's
Vishwaroopam.

is
well-known
that
Maattrraan

of

have
decided
to
release
the
film
on
the
same
day.
The
Kamal
Hassan
starrer
film
has
already
been
delayed

they
do
not

postpone
the
film.
They
are
working
hard
to
deliver
the
product

The
Bollywood
