Will Kochadaiiyaan Release On May 23?

Repeated delays over the release of Kochadaiiyaan has been not helping the movie. After announcing that the flick would be released finally on May 23, a speculation had emerged from rumour mills that it would be delayed again. But the makers of the film have come out to give a clarification on the issue.

The official press release from Eros read, "All post production work has been completed and the film is censored in all six languages in 2D and 3D versions. It is ready for delivery next week," The movie bosses have also denied reports on a repayment-default notice to the producers by a private bank. They say that the sudden demand over the prints made them postpone the release.

"There was a sudden demand for an additional 200 prints for as many screens, all over the world, just two days before release after seeing the extraordinary response for the advance booking. 125,000 tickets were sold out in under two hours in Chennai alone. To avoid last minute delay on the screening material reaching theatres, the decision was taken to reschedule the film to May 23," said a statement from the production house.
