The much awaited film of Kamal Haasan, Dasavatharam will hit the screens in a few days from now and Kamal fans all over the globe are elated beyond words. In Chennai alone seventy shows per day are scheduled across different theatres. They are Sathyam, Santham, Devi in Mount Road and Abirami, Swarna Abirami, Sangam and Padmam in Kilpauk area. Inox, till date has announced four shows but is likely to increase. In addition to these, Albert, Woodlands, Udayam, mini Udayam, Suriyan, Maharani, and Rohini will have regular shows of Dasavatharam. In the Kodambakkam belt, Kamala and AVM theatres will screen the film. In South Chennai, the open air theatre Prarthana will have two shows. The suburban Mayajaal complex has announced fifty shows per day in all of their screens which means that their ten screens will have only Dasavatharam in all the shows.
This excludes the seventy shows in the city which means that there would be 120 shows of Dasavatharam alone in a day in Chennai and suburbs. This is considered a unique feat which is first of its kind in Tamil cinema.
An interesting trivia about the film- It is a general practice of Aascar Ravichandran to make a trip to the holy Thirumala Hills with the film roll just before its release. But this time, he has changed the venue to Srirangam Ranganathaswamy temple.
