The Fab Five of 2006
SUDHISH KAMATH takes a
critical look at the top five films.
5 : Sillunnu Oru Kaadhal: Director Krishna's debut reminds you of the rawness Mani Ratnam showed in the early phase of his career. The film is exceptionally good in parts and terrible when the director tries to sneak in Vadivelu and his brand of humour. But for such unwarranted speed-breakers, this leisurely paced film is an interesting watch, just about beating newcomer Vasantha Balan's "Veyil" for the slot. "Veyil" has an infinitely superior first half, but the second half ridden with nearly four songs in less than 30 minutes completely ruins the flow of the narrative.
4 : Pudupettai: Like "Veyil," this one too has an absolutely riveting first half. But the gangster saga loses steam and focus halfway through with its soap-operatic sub-plots before it redeems itself with a half-decent end. Though "Pattiyal" had a more cohesive narrative, Vishnuvardhan's gangster film did not have the rawness and realism that Selvaraghavan brought to the table. Had Selvaraghavan ended "Pudhupettai" at the interval point with the stage set for a sequel, it might have been the film of the year.
"Vettaiyaadu Vilayaadu"
3 : Imsai Arasan 23 Pulikesi: The period setting in the time of rowdy films came as a whiff of fresh air. Hats off to Simbudevan and director Shankar to actually go ahead and make a film out of a script that many would've dismissed as a spoofy stage play. Vadivelu rises to the occasion, sparkling with comic timing and absolutely revelling in a role no one else could've played.
2 : E: If not for the cheesy visual effects in the end (the same used to publicise the movie), Jhananathan's take on biological warfare and its relevance in the Third World actually makes for serious cinema. With brilliant performances from Jeeva and Pasupathy, "E" has an engaging, fast-paced narrative and the raw energy of the streets.
1 :Vettaiyaadu Vilayaadu: Yes, this is not half as good as "Kaakha Kaakha," especially with its weak villains. Yet, Gautham's cop-versus-killer thriller has to be the pick of the lot with a rather tight narrative but for the romantic deviation, a super-refined Kamal Hassan underplaying a super-cop role, energetic cinematography and creative editing. A worthy sequel but for the unevenly poised rivals: Experienced super-cop takes on two medical schoolboys? However, in the context of other films made this year, Gautham can walk away with his head held high. "Vettaiyaadu Vilayaadu"' is the movie of the year.

:P

Exactly ! Many like PP and Veyyil too. Similarly many like other movies too. IMO, what myself and Maddy were laughing was : @ the critic based on his previous criticism and his articles which are known for laugh riots. He just writes his bias and prejudice against some actors and then immeidately follows it up with some LENGTHY essay which he feels about tamil cinema forgetting the heroes he like !
FYI, This guy isn't a critic IF you read ALL HIS ARTICLES !
Hope A_A @ Bala and Karthik (Aandavan) know this better !
I also know that Bala @ A_A included PP in the best film of the year section
Just laughed at his list and the write up that appeared in HIndu

knowing his previous articles.
I will strongly recomment you to visit

Selva,
I like some of Sudhish Kamath's posts and i totally disagree with some.
For e.g he tore Varalaaru to shreds but at the same time he enjoys Rajini and Vijay movies which i find perplexing. Neither did Ajith deserve that treatment IMO nor do Rajini and Vijay movies deserve the lofty treatment he gives them, again IMO. The best part is that he believes Vijay is next to Rajini in the BO and fan-following
Coming to the list that is being discussed, i have watched only PP and VV in that list and i rate PP higher than VV. So, can't really comment on the others though i doubt SOK or Imsai would figure in my list even if i'd watched them
His Hindi list is ridiculous because he rates RDB and LRMB higher than Omkara

Thamiz: Why are you so obsessed with VV anyway?.. You are always ranting about VV not running 100 days, VV not scoring 50 marks,VV not doing this ,not doing that,blah blah..And I dont understand what your post has to do with mine
Nerd: Being a fan of Rajini is alright, but being a fan of both Rajini and Vijay shows a tendency to like massy stuff, preference to style over substance,entertainment over logic etc..Not the right recipe for a good critic..Thats IMO..

See, read the title of this thread. VV is certainly a candidate to discuss here!
Olnly lately the blockbusters do not run for 100 days steadily. It was not the case when MGR's adimaipeN set a record of running in 20 theatres!
Even, during the "baba time" running 50 days in more than 75 theatres is declared as FLOP! Or it was said, made to run in baby albert! Even CM was dragged to run more than 75 thetres including Abhiraami
The trend seems to be changed now. And I am trying learn about the latest trend from the VV's obsession

Well,its not just running a particular number of days in a theater that classifies a movie's success...
There are a lot of other factors, like the movie's budget, the price for which it was sold to the distributors, the number of prints the movie opened with and the cost it recovered from its opening,etc etc etc..So, just going by the number of days a movie ran, is probably not the right way to determine a movie's financial success..
And BTW its not just VV thats falling into thi category...Anniyan and Ghajini, which were also classified as blockbusters, scraped through to 100..

See,Thats why I dont get into these BO arguments, because I dont have a clue about other centers, As far as i know, VV was huge in Chennai, Way bigger than any other movie this year, way bigger than Ghajini and on par with Anniyan (Considering that it released with no publicity, thats a great achievement)..
Sify stated that VV did well in all major centers like Kovai, Trichy, Madurai, and average in Tirunelveli.VV also a had a good run overseas.
How much these centers contribute to making a movie a blockbuster, I dont know..

I know you could give Trichy data but just skipped that on purpose.

Let us hear from Kh fans and see. We can double check it if necessary.
See, if it had run great in Madurai, Rajaraam aNNA would have posted that 100 times. If you hear silence from such ends, then that tells you that is was not doing that great!

The year's biggest blockbuster, Kamal Hassan's `Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu,' has the actor in a very different role, something he has not done before and Gautham Menon's treatment and packaging along with Harris Jayaraj's music clicked.
Again, K.S.Ravikumar's `Varalaaru,' is an unusual Ajit film in which he does triple roles with style. What catches the audience's imagination is Ajit's body language, especially the effeminate character he plays, and the director does a good job in providing the correct commercial mix to it. Both `Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu,' and `Varalaaru' turned out to be Kamal Hassan's and Ajit's biggest hits respectively.
As leading producer and distributor Oscar Films, V. Ravichandran says: " ... Audiences are on the look out for fresh and innovative ideas and not necessarily stars. I agree that star [-oriented] films take an extraordinary opening but they will not sustain, if the content is not good".
A reason for the box-office boom is the opening weekend high admission rates. This has helped many films to collect their cost of production even in the first week.
Chennai city, which is the smallest, area-wise, in the trade, generated huge revenues due to high admission rates. Now with the Government slashing the ticket prices by more than 50 per cent, it remains to be seen whether big films will take big openings!

Sad to say atleast !
In Chennai, I heard E is doing well. Except metros, the movie isn't doing good business OVERALL !
How can that be included in the TOP 10 grossers !
IF we have to go by the ADs given by RB Choudry and VishaaL's father,
I must say
Sivapathigaaram is a blockbuster !
Point : E is a very good movie and must have been a profitable one for its producer !

Definitly not a TOP grosser !

A_A: Let me clarify myself. What I meant was being a fan of just Rajini OR Vijay is alright (for a critic), It may be just a particular thing that they liked, or could be an alternate indulgence.
But liking both of them could only mean what i said earlier

varalaaru is a good movie, but please don't compare with kamal's vv ...
as kamal says in the movie : "podi pasangala, yaar kitta mothuringa ?" 
Tamil film industry is on a bull run, as 98 films were released and nearly 25 films were profitable. Remember that last year only a dozen films made money out of 90 odd films!
The boom is attributed to the audience coming back to the theatres and youth patronising movies with new concepts and new heroes. Karunanidhi government’s decision to exempt films with Tamil titles from entertainment tax also boosted ticket sales. The usual formulaic film with six songs, five fights and a larger-than-life hero plus a lot of glamour seems to be outdated this year.
Tamil cinema became more popular in neighbouring states of Karnataka and Kerala and had a huge dubbing potential in Andhra. And after Bollywood, Kollywood is the second most popular export earner among Indian films. Today there is great demand for Tamil films worldwide, mainly due to Sri Lankan Tamils.
The message emanating from Kodambakkam tinsel town is loud and clear: Story and presentation is more important than making movies to boost a superstar’s inflated ego. And the audience was not willing to take what was thrust upon them. Hardwork, discipline and innovative ideas paid rich dividends at the box-office. Small films like Chithirem Pesuthadi, Kokki, Thalainagaram, Parijatham, Dishoom and Thiruttu Payale that distributors were initially reluctant to touch turned out to be gold. Thambi, Perarasu, Em Magan, Pattiyal, and E were also money grossers.
Films with newness in presentation were welcomed by the audience while films with superstars failed miserably. Films like Vijay’s Aathi, Ajit’s Tirupathi, Arjun’s Madrasi, Vijaykanth’s Sudesi, Surya’s Sillunu Oru Kadhal, and others like June R, Jambavan and Nenjirikkum Varai were all duds.
At the box-office it was Vetayadu Vilayadu which was the biggest grosser as it made Rs 30 Crore worldwide for its distributors. The film had Kamal Hassan in a very different role, something he had not done before. Gautham Menon’s slick packaging along with Harris Jayaraj’s rocking music clicked with the youth.
Our audiences have also matured as they have become more script conscious and are not willing to accept a film just for the sake of a hero. They were willing to accept Vadivelu as a hero in Imsai Arasan 23am Pulikesi because its director Simbudevan was able to package the film with all essential ingredients and made a star out of Vadivelu.
The biggest discovery of the year was Vishal whose Sandakozhi released last December ran for 200 days and was a super hit not only in Tamilnadu but also Andhra. His Thimiru was also a big hit while Sivapathikaaram was average.
There were half a dozen celebrity weddings in Kollywood like- Laila & Mehdi(Jan 6), Surya & Jyothika (Sep 11), Manoj & Nandana (Nov 19), Renuka Menon & Suraj(Nov 30), Arun Vijay & Aarthi (Dec 1), Selva & Sonia (Dec 15).

The slump that persisted for the past few years has been corrected. The number of films that became hits during this year was more than the earlier year. Additionally, the profit earned by cinema is substantial. The films released in 2006 have proved that cinema is a profitable business.
Only 8 films became hits in 2005. Two of them became mega hits. They were 'Chandramuki' and 'Anniyan'. The hits were Murugadass' 'Gajini', Perarasu's 'Sivakasi' and Lingusami's 'Sandakozhi'. But in 2006 the percentage of success has doubled.
The first six months of the year 2006 were the budget films period. 42 films were released during this period. Seven of them made profit. Films like 'Dishyum,' 'Chithiram Pesudhadi,' 'Thalainagaram,' 'Thiruttu Payale,' 'Kalvanin Kaadhali,' 'Kokki' and 'Parijatam' were small budget films. Their cost was between 3 and 4 crores. The reason for their success was that the stories were different and they were realistically produced. The Government's implementation of anti-piracy was also another reason. Through these films Tamil cinema made a profit of Rs.30 crores.
The latter six months saw the release of mega budget films. Kamal starrer 'Vettayaadu Vilayadu' directed by Gautam, 'Imsai Arasan 23rd Pulikesi' produced on behalf of Shankar's S Pictures directed by Simbudevan, 'Thimiru' directed by Tarun Gopi, the Telugu re-make 'Unakkum Enakkum' and Satya Jothi films' 'Em Magan' made substantial profits.
The producers made profit of 10 crores each from 'Imsai Arasan' and 'Unakkum Enakkum'; 8 crores from 'Thimiru' and 5 crores from 'Em Magan'. Most of all 'Vettayaadu Vilayadu' became a mega hit and made 15 crores.
All five films were released before Deepavali. The Deepavali releases 'Vallvan', 'E' and 'Varalaaru' became hits.
'Varalaaru' which was lying dormant for a long time became a mega hit and reestablished Ajith. This movie alone made a profit of Rs.13 crores. Jananathan's 'E' again made Rs.6 crores profit owing to a different plot and different kind of action. The big budget film 'Vallavan' directed by Simbu became a hit and earned Rs.8 crores.
The latter half of 2006 has not favored budget films much. 'Mann.' 'Aavani Thingal' and 'Nenjil' did not see much profit. The exception was 'Prathi Gnayiru' that gave a few lakhs of profit to the producers.
Madhavan has done a dual role in 'Rendu' produced by Khushboo and directed by Sundar C. The film is expected to rake in at least 5 crores in profit. 'Veyil' produced by S Creations and directed by Vasanthabalan has done well and joined the list of successful films.
Films that made moderate profits were Seeman's 'Thambi,' Ajith's 'Paramasivan' and 'Thirupathi.' SA Chandrasekhar's 'Nenjirukkum Varai,' Dhanush's 'Thiruvilayadal Aarambam' and small budget films like 'Thirudi' and 'Kaadhalum Katru Mara' have been released and running. We will know shortly how successful their run is.
Around 8 films are being released on Dec 22. K Balachander's 'Poi,' Prashant's 'Thagappansamy,' plus budget films 'Mazhaithuli Mazhaithuli,' 'Azhagiya Asura,' adu Puli Aatam,' 'Aattam' and so on have been released. At least some of these films should do well.
Excluding the December releases, the films released this year have raked in a profit of 120 crores. Good stories, good realization and the govt's tax exemption for films with pure Tamil titles were some reasons say producers.
We can include an individual to this list and that is Ravichandran of Oscar Films. This year, the only film produced and released by him is 'Dishyum.' But thanks to him, umpteen other films got released. After one week of the film 'Chithiram Pesudhadi' being released, is producer was reeling in debt. Ravichandran bought it from him and distributed it all over Tamilnadu. With appropriate publicity, he made the film a success. Similarly, he saved the producers of 'Rendu,' 'Parijatham ' and 'Thalainagaram' by buying and distributing the films himself and also turned them into successful films. 'Poi' that is being released on Dec 22 is also thanks to him.
The film that is making the most news this year is Kasthuriraja's mega flop 'Idhu Kaadhal Varum Paruvam.' He thought he could make mega bucks by exposing flesh but the Tamil film fans have taught him a lesson that they do not fall for such lewd tricks.
This is one indication that the taste of Tamil film fans is definitely showing a marked improvement!

IndiaToday Says VARALARU is the biggest blockbuster and it has made 17 crores

Audience always want change
December 29, 2006
These days audience always want. This message becomes when we look at the success and failure rates of movies released during the year. Those films which turned out to be box office hits were those welcomed by the viewers. About 100 movies were released in 2006 and only 23 turned out to be profitable to the producers.
There were movies of big stars like Kamal Haasan, Vijay and Ajith and also movies that introduced new faces. It cannot be said that movies of big stars only had a good run, because movies like Chithiram Pesuthadi which had new faces as hero and heroine was a box office hit and the song Valamekkum became a big hit.
A recent report says that Tamil movies are recognized very well in the neighbouring states and Tamil movie industry has become a very big industry. Also, of late, Tamil movies are doing well abroad too. Tamil movies are released simultaneously in India and abroad. Many Tamil movies are now being given Tamil titles so as to get tax exemption from the government.
The formula that a star cast could make a movie a big hit has been changed by the filmgoers. Imsai Arasan 23rd Pulikesi made the comedian Vadivelu a hero and children enjoyed the movie a lot.
The movies Vettaiyaadu Valaiyaadu and Varalaru are considered to be biggest hits of the year. The movie Godfather was renamed as Varalaru before its release and it starred Ajith in three roles and Asin opposite him.
Vettaiyaadu Valaiyaadu is a hit movie directed by Gautham Menon and Kamal starred in the role of a cop after a long time. The movie was a big hit as the screenplay and presentation were different. Other than these two movies, Unnakkum Enakkum and Thimiru did well at the box office.
Thalainagaram, Thiruttu Payale, Em Magan and Dishyum were the other hit movies. It becomes clear from the report that even the movies without a big star cast could be box office hits; but movies with big star cast can do well only if the story and concept are different and the movie is worth seeing. Galatta.com wishes all the actors, actresses and all the artistes in the movie industry a bright and prosperous New Year!

What is poornimaa's point here?

She is saying that VV's collections should be compared with Baba, Veera, Arunachalam, Muthu etc.. CM and Padayappa collections can be compared only with BIG ones like Titanic, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and the likes

Varalaaru
Director: K.S.Ravikumar
Cast: Ajith, Asin, Kanika
Production: Nic Arts
Music: A.R.Rahman
Ajith’s first big hit in a long long time. He has single handedly shouldered the movie with some great histrionics. K.S.Ravikumar (the master of commercial cinema) has done it again. Asin’s presence has added colour to the movie; the song sequences are lively.
Trade Talk:
The movie that released for Diwali is going strong even after its 50th day. Has already reaped profits. With no major releases until Pongal, Varalaaru looks set to become one of the top grosser of 2006.
Verdict: Super hit.

Why 'Which is the biggest hit of the year 2006' thread is locked?
when sify posts negative on kamal, they are unreliable and biased... when they post postives, it's always "EVEN sify has accepted"
In the first week, Sify told that VV was hit only in chennai and failed all other areas of TN.
http://sify.com/entertainment/movies...hp?id=14284588
now the same sify told that VV collected 30 crores(this is only distributor share).
Then what about Over all collections? 50 Crores?
http://sify.com/movies/tamil/fullstory.php?id=14359602
that 30 crores came from chennai alone???
Now every one can understand about SIFY's two faces.
No body can hide the truth.

Sillunu oru kadhal DID replace VV in Sathyam???
Or VV was DRAGED in studio-5 (ONE SHOW) to make the 100 days-block buster ???
Or studio-5 can accomodate only 150 people!!!
Or the Only bllockbuster which had really hard time to make 100-day run in recent times is VV???
VV ran only 2week in SATYAM. after that it moved to santam.But it collected more money than other movies(Anniyan and CM) in satyam complex.
the reasons are.
1. First week the ticket rate was Rs.150 and second week the ticket rate was 100.even in santham the ticket rate was Rs.80 and Rs.90
2.Till 50 days VV had special shows on saturdays and sundays.
3.Tax exemption.

MX did better business than all above movies...
we accept you're an intellectual by default
plz go through Goutham's interview and prepare a presentation, I'd have a tea and come back
Mr.Rajaram the same dinakaran saod Varalaru made profit of 13 crores during its 51st day n VV 15 crores in 100 days.
Cinesouth.com too has reported Varalaru made 13 crores profit...

Though all the movies dint fare well it was profitable n thats why PARAMSIVAN was a hit :P
Regarding the areas where VARALARU did better business than VV i dont have any idea as im from chennai.... but it is having equal / better run at SATHYAM COMPLEX @ STUDIO - 5 for evening show ... Baby Albert n KASI.
Indha replya periya matter because as i quoted ur post on MX audio... i cant keep replying to ur blind jokes
If some sources say VV is biggest blockbuster.... INDIA TODAY , DECCAN CHRONICLE , DINAKARAN feel VARALARU IS THE BIGGEST BLOCKBUSTER THIS YEAR

this thread is titled "top 10 movies of 2006". The title is not "your favourite 10 movies". If u look at it according to its title, there is no argument that VV has greater success than Varalaaru. However, i still like Varalaaru more. And everyone knows varalaaru is a much better movie.
My Personal Opinion is this:
1) Varalaaru
2) E
3) Pattiyal
4) Thiruttu Payalae
5) Dishoom
6) Thambi
7) Veyyil
8) Thimiru
9) Rendu
10)Em Magan

Just because Kamal may have been good in the past, there is no reason for supporting him now. Looking at this from a logical aspect, what great acting did Kamal show in VV? There was nothing extraordinary about his acting in VV. Ajith has honestly showed very good acting in Varalaaru. The way he was able to handle his three roles is miles ahead of Kamal in VV. Anyway, those who want to critisize jeeva....i dont care. Jeeva has obviously showed his skills in acting.

How many days VV ran at SATHYAM complex ?
Indeed KAMAL did INDIAN role
GOdfather no one else could have done that role with that much finesse ... remember the comment made by some magazines "15 years back KAMAL would have done this" ?
Shows the depth of the character n justice done by AJITH

Regarding NATIONAL award i heard that producer n director must take some efforts to send the film for nominations ... it might be wrong or right.... i even mentioned im not sure
I never claimed anything like MX audio is blockbuster n clownish jokes like that
If some sources say VV is biggest hit of 2006 .... DECCAN , DINAKARAN , INDIA TODAY say varalaru is the biggest hit.
Great : i watched few scenes did i say i did not watch the movie? See my post
People U may keep braying pasupathy , kanja karupu n other nonsense... least bothered about it

Ajith deserves a golden globe for it
Citizen was among the biggest comedies Ive ever watched

A band of four will kidnap an entire Village,board them on a ship and get them drowned one by one.
I doubt even ducks or hens could've been handled like that.

anyway, who cares about soruces and box-offices reports. Every single source and report has a reason for being biased and most sources are biased. It is better to make detailed analysis and understand which movie is better..............there is no use providing links to websites and sources which say which movie is a greater hit..........

Filmfare awards is a joke.
Madhavan gettin an award for Run when Vikrams Kasi is pitted against proves the quality of the award

jus luk at it down the yrs
2005-Anniyan(Vikram)

2004-Perazhagan(Surya) (remake movie.Original had a much better performance)
2003-Vikram(Pithamagan) Justified

2002-Ajith(Villan)

2001-Madhavan(Run)

1999-Ajith(Vaali) Justified.But IMO Vikram's Sethu deserved it better.
1998-Prasanth(Jeans)

(remember Kaadhalukku Mariadhai)
1994-Prabhu Deva(Kaadhalan)
Almost all Shankar movies except Boys won him a best director award along with the best actor award for the male lead.
Intha maathiri awardslaam engalukku thevai illai

Vijay himself has publicly stated as hes not doin films for awards.

Stop it there oh KAMALSURYA
Acting as a female with makeup and acting as an effeminate male without makeup is different

sir
Ajith never struggled in citizen with makeup :P
He struggled with dialogue delivery in the last scene thats it...
His genre of acting is different... the body language as the regal old man.... the villianous son.... the innocent guy.... the female like dancer.... it was amazing one fo 2006
Please dont compare KAMAL's past films with VARALARU
The triple variation he gave is far ahead of any performance in 2006 sir

Agreed
His acting as the old thaatha was

in INDIAN...
But Ajith did it early in his career n moreover it was just a scene so cant judge it by that sir. he did it well in the given time sequence

that thaatha charecter..make up potta indian thatha maadhiri acting varadhu
did you watch Varalaaru?
stop blabbering about kamal? if one actor acts well then you guys bring kamal and blabber kamal can act better
in second half of citizen, Ajith's actign was superb.. just becuz the movie was had flaws, you can't overlook his acting..
watch Varalaaru for his body language and voice modulation

avvai sanmuhi and Varalaaru are different movies with differernt characters
wth.. intellectuals can't see that?
Ajith acted as a guy who has feminine mannerisms
kamal acted as an old lady?
I loved Varalaaru acting, no other actor would have acted in it, without over acting

tomorrow jeeva is gonna act as a lady so all the intellectuals will say it's the same character as avvai sunmuhi?

well you said had Ajith acted in sEthu, he would've been a good actor
i don't know what surya did
Ajith's acting in Vaali, Mugavari, Citizen flash back and Varalaaru were extraordinary..
Varalaaru, no other actor could do that role with ease..
well many young actors won't even dare to take up this role or villan role he did in Vaali

hello..we are not starting comparisons!
in all ur recents posts see a line
"noone other than ajith could do the role" ..that line makes us to say..its a jujubee role for legends like kamal and shivaji!
may be u must add "actors of younger generation from now"
then..how does an old lady react..with male mannerisms?...

noone could have done this role with 'elan' which includes all generations from Shivaji to Jeeva. Better to ignore it.

for the info sir
Even Ajith wont mind heaping praises on KAMAL n calling him as helpful n inspiration .... my only point is ...many magazines wrote only KAMAL could have done

and one magazine wrote "15 years munadi indha kadhai vandhurindhal kamal odi vandhu seidhu kuduthirupaar"
Shouldnt Ajith Fans be proud of this

Mister Warden
Vaali Ran for 270 days to packed houses. Aasai also ran for 210 days. Kaadhal Koatai ran for 225 days and was national award winning film for agathiyan. Consider Vali running with PADAYAPPA that too when rajini hyped his political aspirations.
Vaali's run proof from external source:
http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...-birthday.html
Regarding Kaadhuluku Mariyadhai and Poove Unakaga shields in KAMALA theatre is a joke. The 275 days humbug is just like the pokiri audio review that vijay fans setup in their yahoo group and posted in vijaynet -- telling members to pretend as neutrals and post reviews
Kamal theatre is known to run a flop movie sachin for 200 days so please dont worry about it .
During some film celebration dfans put up a huge posted with 3-4 films like priyamudan , kushi , TMT , and Kadhuluku Mariyadhai in it. No film was a 200 + days film according to that poster.
Audio sales of pokiri is being hyped too much.... contact AVM audios at TTK road n ask them about sales they would inform u that aalwar sold more than POKIRI... even indiaglitz to avoid controversies said both r doing brisk business. So we dont lose out.
Take a look at this too :
The fact that these films were being released in more and more theatres especially in rural areas and that the distributors were happy that they could recover a major portion in the opening week, brought him the nickname, King of opening. He has worked in guest roles in many films mainly to help out young directors.
The audio rights of one of his films, Kandukondein kandukondein, were sold for 2.5 crores - an unbeaten record so far!
http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-mov...-birthday.html
Audio rights has been highest for ajith film only.
Varalaru made 17 crores profit in less than 80 days see 39th page of india today

VV ran only 2week in SATYAM. after that it moved to santam.But it collected more money than other movies(Anniyan and CM) in satyam complex.
the reasons are.
1. First week the ticket rate was Rs.150 and second week the ticket rate was 100.even in santham the ticket rate was Rs.80 and Rs.90
2.Till 50 days VV had special shows on saturdays and sundays.
3.Tax exemption.

1. Thambi - Madhavan

...different movie for Madhavan and I've seen it 3x already

2. Pattiyal - Arya, Pooja and the rest were awesome - good story...seen it 2x for you know who...

...
3. Em Mahan - Mainly because my family and my self can relate to the story in some ways

..

and Nasser and Saranya's acting...

4. Imsai Arasan - I've seen it 2x and can't stop laughing even if I think about it...one of the funniest in a long time!
5. Veyyil - A powerful movie that I enjoyed watching - the entire cast of the movie was great. I especially enjoyed the first song with the kids!
6. Varalaru - I liked this movie for several reasons - the second half of the movie with the flash back, Ajith's dance and walk...

7. VV - a sleek movie that was well done...romance was not necessary...

..Kamal sir is always Kamal sir

8. Aaru - I really enjoyed this movie for Surya's acting and he looked good too! :P

Nalla theriyudhu unga tharadharam...
1) You claimed Anniyan was bigger than VV in Sathyam which was promptly tossed aside as being bull refuse because evidence is available and everyone except your holy self knows that what you are claiming is rubbish.
2) You are now claiming that because VV reached 100 days in only a few theatres [or in your words, it struggled to reach 100 days - see next point], it is not a blockbuster.
Now, please drill it into your head that # of days alone doesn't determine a movie's collections as most of the hubbers here know, other than golden oldies (don't reply in caps yelling "you don't know my age" - I DON'T CARE) like you who still live in 1947.
Do you know with how many prints VV got released?
Do you know the ticket rates?
Do you know the occupancy %ages in the theatres?
Do you read newspapers?
Do you read websites?
What do you think is the distribution of the revenue made as time progresses? That is, when does a movie make the most money?
Did you go to any theatre in TN or anywhere else and see for yourself? Or did you have any reliable source giving you first hand info on this? How many of you people claiming VV didn't do well in B and C really *see* this or heard from people who actually saw that?
3) Your point about VV struggling to reach 100 days is interesting because unga Rajini madhiri thechu ottradha irundha Pandiyan pondra padangalai kuda 100 days nu kattalaam... andha kevalam ellam edhukku? Even Sachein was made to run for 200 days. That doesn't prove anything.
4) The biggest joke (and the joke is on you paatti) is that long before anyone else, it was we KH fans who wrote here and elsewhere that after Deepavali, VV
would be lifted in many theatres and that 100 day run would be only of academic interest. Therefore, it neither comes as a surprise nor is there any contradiction.

Some hubbers here have been asking the question "You KH fans call sify a crappy website, but you quote their figures.Why?"
This is downright silly. Of course Sify is crappy. Specifically, because they are biased. Now, have they made any 'mistake' by writing anything negative about Rajni [no way] or Vijay [i don't think]??? If they are consistent in making these innaccuracies, then we can dismiss their report of VV etc. Infact, if at all they err about Rajini/Vijay, it will be on the leneient side, that is, they may write 'more', exaggerate - migai paduthi ezhudhubadhu. Definitely not for KH. In this case, even if they praise, it will be measured and usually they will downplay it.
Even for Varalaaru, if i'm not wrong, they took a U-turn when initially they dismissed it and were forced to reverse their stand after seeing its opening and successful run.
So, if a Rajini/Vijay jalra website/magazine writes something positive about someone they love to bring down (or give backhanded statements), obviously we WILL quote it...
To refresh their [Rajini fans] memories, for e.g, even when they made comparisons, they would compare apples and oranges - 5 days of Stalin figures vs 3 days of VV figures etc.....This is just 1 example. Now, why don't they even have a single instance of such goof-ups against Rajini or Vijay? Idhu dhaan bias.
You 'questioning' people have no case 'whatsoeva'

i liked that post.... they took a U-Turn all of a sudden for varalaru
they called varalaru as below-average first then after fans started to fire they turned it to average n above average.
whereas in the past they have termed crappoy movies as time pass n must watch.... be happy they said "must watch" for VV and "blockbuster" for VV

VV will be mile stone of tamil cinema if it didnt have heroines part... i hope so.... (personally, i like both the character but at the same time i felt, both of them are not necessary for that story...)

1) You claimed Anniyan was bigger than VV in Sathyam which was promptly tossed aside as being bull refuse because evidence is available and everyone except your holy self knows that what you are claiming is rubbish.
2) You are now claiming that because VV reached 100 days in only a few theatres [or in your words, it struggled to reach 100 days - see next point], it is not a blockbuster.
Now, please drill it into your head that # of days alone doesn't determine a movie's collections as most of the hubbers here know, other than golden oldies (don't reply in caps yelling "you don't know my age" - I DON'T CARE) like you who still live in 1947.
Do you know with how many prints VV got released?
Do you know the ticket rates?
Do you know the occupancy %ages in the theatres?
Do you read newspapers?
Do you read websites?
What do you think is the distribution of the revenue made as time progresses? That is, when does a movie make the most money?
Did you go to any theatre in TN or anywhere else and see for yourself? Or did you have any reliable source giving you first hand info on this? How many of you people claiming VV didn't do well in B and C really *see* this or heard from people who actually saw that?
3) Your point about VV struggling to reach 100 days is interesting because unga Rajini madhiri thechu ottradha irundha Pandiyan pondra padangalai kuda 100 days nu kattalaam... andha kevalam ellam edhukku? Even Sachein was made to run for 200 days. That doesn't prove anything.
4) The biggest joke (and the joke is on you paatti) is that long before anyone else, it was we KH fans who wrote here and elsewhere that after Deepavali, VV would be lifted in many theatres and that 100 day run would be only of academic interest. Therefore, it neither comes as a surprise nor is there any contradiction.

Excellant Post
VV ran for 50 days most of the places which it released.
Biggest Hit of the Year with out any doubt.

2006- Hits & Misses!
By Moviebuzz | Thursday, 28 December , 2006, 11:07
Telugu cinema’s lucky streak continued as 2006 turned out to be an above average year with more than a dozen films making money on their investment. Expanding business territories, record breaking films, new stars and directors, piracy slowing down – are some of the best things that happened this year.
Tamil dubbed films failed miserably at box-office unlike in 2005, although the inflow of dubbed films boomed. The trend was peppy youth movies with good music and stylish presentation that worked wonders at the box-office, while formulaic action films of superstars bombed miserably. Telugu cinema also found a huge market in the cities of Chennai, Bangalore and overseas in North America and Canada.
Hits…
Pokiri the summer release of 2006 not only went on to become highest grosser ever in Telugu film history but also catapulted hero Mahesh Babu to superstardom. Pokiri collected nearly Rs 40 Crores and ran for 175 days in about 60 centers, a record in Tollywood. Ileana became the hot & happening girl with this film.
The other blockbusters are Venkatesh starrer Lakshmi, Ileana’s maiden film Devadasu, critically acclaimed Bommarillu and Nagarjuna’s devotional film Sri Ramadasu - all collected more than Rs 18 Crores and enjoyed long run. Ravi Teja’s Vikramarkudu and the comedy caper Andala Ramudu were the other successful and profitable films of 2006. Style was appreciated for Lawrence’s directorial qualities but in the end it could not bring rich dividends. Nevertheless it can be termed as a decent hit. Films that broke even financially were – Godavari, Ranam, Stalin, Samanyudu and Bhagyalakshmi Bumper Draw.
There were some surprise hits too – Pandem Kodi (dubbed Tamil film) was a hit.
Misses.. It was not a rosy picture for some of the biggies. Siddardha’s Chukkallo Chandrudu, Ram Gopal Varma produced Shock, Aasadhyudu, Balakrishna’s Veerabhadra, Pawan Kalyan’s Bangaram, Mahesh Babu’s Sainikudu, Prabhas Pournami and Ravi Teja’s Khatarnak were duds for which distributors and producers lost heavily.
NTR’s Rakhi has taken a good opening and Pawan’s Annavaram (releasing on Dec 29th) will be the last release of the year carries good reports.
At least Telugu Cinema is consistent with old days. A block-buster runs 175 days in 60 centers! Unlike our block-busters in Tamil

But saying the same thing that a movie has to run 175 days to qualify as a blockbuster is so lame..
How is it in Bollywood or Hollywood ?, Is a movie scratched for 175 days

Dont you accept a movie as a blockbuster, by the size of its opening and its run while it lasts ?

VV removed from all 4 screens after 59 days in madurai and crossed 50 days in all 15 B&C centers(especially in Podi,Sivaganagi,Thirumangalam,Periyakulam and melur etc.) this is next to CM.(CM also ran 50 days in 15 B&C centers and crossed 100 days in 9 B&C centers)
Recent movies record in Madurai.
---------------------------------
VV ran 59 days in 4 screens.
CM ran 100 days in 4 screens.
Varalaru ran 50 days in 3 screens.
Anniyan ran 60 days in 3 screens.
Ghajini ran 60 days in 2 screens.
CM 100 days odiyadhu endru solvadhai vida
OTTAPATTADHU endru solvadhudhan correct.
I have mentioned the reasons already so many times in MX Vs CM thread.

I think this is applicable to CM also which ran 175 days only in chennai santhi theatre.

Why are we so concerned about the no of days it ran or the amount of money the movie collected.In both the VV and this thread I see hubbers fighting over the amount of money the movie made yes even i was so bored that i posted once about the amount of money it made quoting from sun tv.But all these discussion is a waste of time isn't it?
As long as we liked the flim we should be happy.Kamal makes flim for his fans to be happy with the end product and enjoy his flim.As long as we are happy wiht his flims and think he is moving in the right direction(as he always does) why must we indulge in useless battles just because some pops up and utter some nonsense.Just forget about and look forward to Kamal's next Dasa.

Because Sachin is a Benchmark film for running long with out a crowd.
Actually Vijay didn't want to run this film for such a long days. He asked the producer to run for 100 days when it wasnt run as expected. But Producer Thanu made this film to run for
225 days.

Tamiz,
If you actually look into this, there were lot of telugu speaking guys were already in chennai. if you cross parrys corner ,now it could be of rajasthani's .. Prior to that it's all telugu speaking crowd. Chennai has great population of telugu speaking crowd. I would say atleast i will have 1 cr out of 6 cr.
There were days only in satyam cineflex, telugu movies were getting released and after that it included midland (jayaprada complex). Now as the population goes higher it is screened in more # of theaters.
I guess that's the reason.
I guess it has the same scenario in madurai also. I am not very sure about it. But I have some ppl say like this.I beg to say sorry, if this is wrong.

Well thats the whole point here. No one is doing that. But there were loads of websites (including sites that have nationwide reach like ibn, ndtv etcc.,) confirming the monstrous success of CM. But for VV the reports aint that good and AFAIH the reports aint that good.
neengaLE sollunga VV 65 crores over-A theriyala. I am not claiming that CM collected 100 crores or whatever though

what makes this statement even funnier is the fact that
a) These are the kind of people who would say even Baba/bloodsHtone is a blockbusHter while the people i'm talking about were the first to declare MX was a washout before it even reac hed the media... nothing great in accepting truth but its defnitely better than false propaganda
b) G whos words [taken out of context] are gospel for Nerd says VV did well in Trichy but Nerd will conveniently skip that....
Also, i know for sure that it didn't extremely well in many centers including the lower class theatres in and around Chennai, Kanchi, Madurai, Salem, Pondi etc which our patriotic Americans don't and won't accept....
Oh yeah,

ibm and ndtv also wouldnt know the right status..thats the real thing!
sify mentioned distributors share of 40 crore i guess...and the argument is based on that!
65 crore..i dont believe.....i believe CM would have attained the maximum of 65 crore..not more than that!...tamil films cant make more than that

Now you dont have to call me a patriotic american for that. Would you be happy if someone calls you a patriotic singaporean ?? Lets discuss about VV alone rather than my respect for a nation.
I dont remember declaring bAbA/bloodstone as a blockbuster in the hub. Read ibn/ndtv/indiatimes articles about bAbA please, also the KSR interview. And I have already asked you not to discuss about rajini and his movies here. VV pathi mudhalla pEsi mudippOm

Adhu enna baba pathi mattum dhaan articles-a nambuveengala? Andha articles-oda source enna? Indiatimes are the ones who said 'Rajinikanth's Anniyan'......
Appo VV-ku support-a irukkara articles mattum yen padikka maattengareenga?
Plus, the reason baba was brought in is because of the allegation that VV was stretched and we are exxagerating. Exaggeration-oda definition is baba. And talking about sources, how do we trust a source-group [not refrring to your friends directly] which refuses to accept/acknowledge that in Albert first day evening night show, people were struggling to sell black tickets?

Well, I did not see you giving the data given by rAjAram.
Now you JUST TALK, after rAjaram gave some data.
If you had given what rajaram gave, then I could have appreciated your knowledge.
QUOTE here with the date, if you had given the data before rajaram
Why do you find so hard to understand some simple things?

There were days only in satyam cineflex, telugu movies were getting released and after that it included midland (jayaprada complex). Now as the population goes higher it is screened in more # of theaters.
I guess that's the reason.
I guess it has the same scenario in madurai also. I am not very sure about it. But I have some ppl say like this.I beg to say sorry, if this is wrong.
Nope that is not it, it is very unlikely any telugu movie running 175 days in LOT of CENTERS and the gross is 40 crores only.
Pokiri collected nearly Rs 40 Crores and ran for 175 days in about 60 centers, a record in Tollywood.
There is something wrong in arithmetic or sify is just coming u with #s for running their life

How did Vallavan fare at the Tamilnadu box-office?
It was hit and no one lost money. The expectations for the film was gargantuan and I agree that the second half of the film could have been better. But time constraints and pressure for a Diwali release had an adverse effect on the film.
And there was a negative talk about the film which affected collections in Chennai city. But in other parts of Tamilnadu, the collections of Vallavan were same as Varalaaru!

THat was simbu who said it. TR said vallavan made 20 crores
Indiatoday, Deccan chronicle , Dinakaran, Vijay TV say VARALARU is #1 of 2006 in terms of profit

and AJith or KSR did not say so just like the article u posted which is an interview with
SIMBU who claims
See what simbu claimed about vallavan :
//How is the opening?
Mind blowing. The opening is similar to Rajnikanth film. There is so much for pressure for tickets and all theatres have reported 100 percent collection. //
