The release of much-talked about director Selvaraghavan's action movie, ' Pudupttai' starring his younger brother Dhanush is delayed. Selvaraghavan had earlier announced that the film would be released on May 19.


After the release of ‘Pattiyal’ whose theme was the same as Pudupettai (dwelling on gangsters in Chennai), Selvaraghavan wanted to re-do many of the scenes to make them look fresh and new, hence the delay. The re-recording is being done in Bangkok, with everyone involved working overtime.



"Pudupettai", being produced by Lakshmi Movie, was very demanding and it took more work and time, said Selvaraghavan. He added, "I am happy with the way the film has shaped up. All the actors and actresses have given a splendid performance. Sneha, who plays the role of a commercial sex worker, and Sonia Agarwal deserve a special mention, Selvaraghavan said.


The whole soundtrack and the music were composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja in Bangkok.


"Pudupettai" is the first Tamil film to be released in the Super 35mm format which allows for a larger image area packing in more details in the frame. It enhances viewing experience. Technologically the film has many other firsts to its credit.


According to Director of Photography Aravind Krishna, the movie will be a very different experience. "It has some intensive matt-based color correction, and also altered color tones for different scenes and moods.' It is also the first film to be digitally projected by directly scanning the negative at 2K resolutions and converting them to digital projection format.


The date of release of the film is yet to be formally announced. Click the Movie button below for more info:
