If you don't mind me asking, what are the 'issues'? I can't help but feel disappointed with Ayngaran - I went to watch this in the cinema, but there were no subtitles, and now the DVD is taking this long to release.

Anyway, best of luck with the special features, hopefully it will be a good DVD when it releases.

Any chance of a Hi-def release ? this movie seems so suited for it.

We've had a few issues with special features. This has been hard to obtain as it would mean Ayngaran getting release forms from everyone (involved in the interviews/deleted scenes) and paying them royalties. Because the overseas Tamil DVD market is not big enough to cover such costs Ayngaran are trying to find alternative ways. I am doing my very best on this for Ayngaran.

If successful then you may be looking at a three-disc version. (Disc 1 - DTS / Disc 2 - Dolby 5.1 / Disc 3 - Special Features)

I should point out that I have met with AVM and have so far managed to get them to re-mix the 5.1 (as the original 5.1 theatrical mix for cinema was badly done). All of the censored audio portions have also been placed back into the DVD.

In addition, I can confirm that Ayngaran will release Sivaji and Pokkiri on Blu-Ray towards the end of 2008. I will be personally involved on those projects too. Both these films will be taken directly from the 4k DI file. More details to soon follow.

^^^ good update

Thanks for all the info and update. I will definitely await for the blu-ray version .

fantastic sunny!!I did not quite get rationale of 3 disc edition, keeping entire film on one disc, with dts or dd 5.1. if they are selling it 3 disc edition, then why not dvd 18 with dts and dd together?

Very sad to see Sivaji and Pokkiri on the list for blu-ray.

Since you have contacts, can you ask Rajkamal if they will ever release Devar magan on DVD/Blu-Ray.

Hindustani and KK! by Menon.

KK - Yes. Hindustani - May be. I would vote for Boys.

Thank You very much ..., 4K transfer is perfect (a la warner ?) cant wait to enjoy the actors "facial" faults

dvdisoil, long time no chat! was in chennai 3 weeks back but couldnt call u. See ur pm.

Do you have any solid proof for 4K DIs? 4K DI is a luxury in Hollywood. So why would this be done for an Indian film? Are you not mixing up 4K scanning and downsampling to 2K with a real 4K DI which has no 2K steps in between?

Hollywood shmollywood....There is nothing Rajni can't do
