Prithviraj’s big
festival season
romantic
comedy Teja
Bhai and Family,
directed by Deepu Karunakaran, with Akhila
Sasidharan playing heroine
has been confirmed for
release on August 26. But a section of the trade
feels that it is not a good
date, as the film will not take
an opening in Malabar area of
the state due to ‘Noyambu’
period. The ‘Noyambu’ ends on
Ramzan day which is likely to
fall on August 30 or 31. The trade especially theatres
in Malabar area which forms
40 to 45% of the box-office
collections from Kerala wants
the date to be shifted to
August 31. However producers Shantha
Murali and distributor Murali
Movies Madhavan Nair want
to release it on August 26, to
get the advantage of a solo
release and a four day weekend. They say Prithviraj has a
better opening in Travancore
and Kochi areas, but trade is
clear that without Malabar he
cannot rule Kerala box-office. Meanwhile three other films
have confirmed August 31,
Ramzan day as release. They
are Mohanlal’s Pranayam,
Joshy’s Seven and re-
release of Kuttichathan in digital 3D. The other two
festival releases are
releasing during Onam,
Bobban Kunchacko’s Dr Love
on September 8 and
Jayaram's Ulagam Sutrum Valiban on September 9.
