Aadukalam From Pongal ?

In an apparent bid to put an end to speculation that their next release ‘Aadukalam’ will hit the screens in December itself, Sun Pictures has clarified that the Dhanush-starrer will be a Pongal release.


This decision, according to sources, has been taken due to two reasons. One being the successful running of Sun Pictures’s Superstar Rajinikanth-starrer ‘Endhiran’ even two months after its release. And the other is the good show of the Deepavali release

‘Uthamaputhiran’ which also has Dhanush in the lead role. “These things have made Sun Pictures to release ‘Aadukalam’ for Pongal,” sources add.

Directed by Vettrimaran of ‘Polladhavan’ fame, ‘Aadukalam’ is set in Madurai. “It is a contemporary film which speaks about the lives, lifestyles, dreams and ambition of the people who belong to a sub-cult,” says the director.
