A bold gamble

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,September 29 2005]

Actor Surya is a bundle of restless energy.

Not for him the static of everyday predictability.He thirsts for change at every corner. You can see this manifest in his choice of different roles. He doesn't take the path of masala potboilers.

Naturally then it is only logical that he also branches out to other areas of film business.

The news is that he is also turning a distributor.

And this seems the trend in the industry.Close on the heels of Srikanth obtaining the Chennai distribution rights for his Pambara Kannalae scheduled for release early next month, Surya has acquired the Chennai distribution for his film Ghajini.

The movie released all across the State on Today and is directed by Murugadoss and produced by Salem Chandrasekhar. Asin and Nayantra play the ladylove to Surya in the movie.

Besides distribution, Surya has also acquired the remake rights of the movie. With Tamil dubbing getting good response in neighboring Andhra Pradesh, Surya is planning to dub the film in Telugu very soon.

Surya's move is smart one. Much like his performances on screen, should we add.
