Finally, director Bharathiraja's 'Bomallattam', which was in the cans for a long time will hit the screens. The movie starring Nana Patekar and Arjun was made simultaneously in Hindi and Tamil by the veteran director.

However for untold reasons, it was forced to stay in the cans for several months. The good news for movie-buffs is that it would hit the screens on 12th December.

Well, the economic recession and some financial difficulties were said to be the reason for the delay. With everything been sough out, it looks certain that the movie would hit the screens next week-end.

Sources close to Bharathiraja say, 'the delay will not affect the movie's prospect at the box office. It is a universal theme and would attract the audience. One can see a new Bharathiraja in the movie'.

Himesh Reshmaiyyah is scoring the music. With talented actors and skilled technicians around, no doubt Bomallattam will rock.
