Close on the heels of E's success in Tamil, the movie is all set for a release in Telugu.

Addressing press persons Wednesday, producer R B Choudhary said E released amidst biggies this Deepavali. 'Fortunately it has become a blockbuster and collected huge revenue. The response from the audience has been amazing and we had to come out with 25 prints for the movie following demands from the distributors and exhibitors.'

He further said, 'Initially I was jittery at releasing the movie for Deepavali. However, director Jananathan and his crew persuaded me to have a go. Their prediction has come true.'

The crew of E comprising Jananathan, Jeeva, cinematographer Ekambaram had toured Tamilnadu extensively in the past few weeks and they are happy with audience response for the movie, he added.

On his part, Jananathan said, 'Reaching the masses with such a sensitive theme was my greatest success'. Jeeva, thrilled at the good run of E, said, 'I had full faith in the director and the script. Hopefully it paid rich dividends'.

E has been reportedly selected for screening at the panorama section of the IFFI to begin at Goa from 23 November.
