According to reports, Vijay's Pokiri directed by Prabhu Deva is tipped for a Pongal release. A remake of the Telugu hit Pokiri, expectations are high on the movie.
AjithÂs Aalwar would be released on the same day. The producer nursed a desire of releasing it in early December. But now it seems he has opted for a release in January, 2007 itself since AjithÂs Varalaru is still drawing good crowds.
The shooting of Jeyam Ravi's Deepavali is happening with full zing. Directed by Ezhil and produced by director Lingusamy, the movie has Jeyam Ravi and Bhavana in prominent roles. It is expected to release this January.
The latest to join the race is Vijayakanth. His Sabari, directed by Suresh and produced by Salem Chandrasekhar, is releasing on Pongal day.
