After
completing
890
days,
Shanthi
Theater
has
finally
stopped
the
screening
of
superstar
Rajini's
Chandramukhi,
and
the
film
has
found
its
second
release
in
4
theaters
in
Chennai
today.
The
blockbuster
movie
of
superstar
Rajini
was
released
on
April
14,
2005
world
wide,
and
created
many
records
at
the
box
office.
The
film
celebrated
its
300th
day
in
7
theaters,
and
finally
actor
Prabhu
(the
producer
of
Chandramukhi),
the
owner
of
Shanthi
Theater,
decided
to
continue
the
show
to
break
the
record
of
Thiyagaraja
Bagavathar's
film
Haridass
which
held
a
50-
year-
old
record
for
being
the
longest
running
film
in
Tamil.
When
Chandramukhi
completed
its
800th
day,
it
finally
broke
the
record
set
by
the
movie
Haridass.
Shivaji
Films,
the
producers
of
Chandramukhi,
have
celebrated
this
achievement
along
with
Tamil
Film
Producer's
Council
in
a
grand
manner
a
couple
of
month
ago.
The
Tamil
Nadu
chief
minister
M.Karunanidhi
also
participated
in
the
function,
and
hailed
the
superstar,
the
hero
of
Chandramukhi,
in
that
function.
Now
after
completing
890
days
of
running,
Shanthi
Theater
has
stopped
the
screening
of
the
film
and
it
has
been
released
again
in
some
of
the
city
theaters
like
Nataraj,
Mekala,
Srinivasa
and
Lakshmi.
When
asked
about
the
historical
run
of
the
film,
Prabhu
said,
"We
are
very
proud
about
the
record
run
of
our
superstar's
Chandramukhi
in
our
theater.
The
movie
has
a
decent
crowd
even
in
the
last
show
screened
at
our
theater..."
