The
powerful
Tamil
Film
Producers'
Council
is
going
to
implement
some
regulations
to
release
the
new
films
hereafter.
According
to
the
TFPC,
nearly
81
straight
Tamil
films
have
been
released
so
far.
In
September,
nearly
20
plus
Tamil
films
will
be
ready
for
release.
But
the
business
is
not
as
expected
and
has
forced
the
producers
to
stop
their
businesses.
Now
the
Tamil
Film
Producers'
Council,
under
its
president
Ramanarayanan,
has
issued
a
statement
that
the
number
of
releases
each
week
should
be
curtailed
due
to
lack
of
playing
time
in
theaters.
According
to
the
press
release,
there
should
be
only
two
straight,
and
one
dubbed
film
every
week.
The
superstar
films
or
those
featuring
top
stars
should
release
every
year
only
during
Pongal,
Republic
day
(January
26),
April
14,
May
1,
Independence
day
(August
15),
Diwali
and
Christmas.
Says
Ramanarayanan,
"this
is
only
a
self
control
measure
that
will
help
the
producers
to
carry
on
the
business
smoothly
as
well
as
profitably!"
