STR’s Dharani directed Osthi has taken a good opening all over Tamil Nadu. The opening is uniform in multiplexes and single screens in B and C stations.
The film after initial release hiccups, opened on Thursday, a working day to get the advantage of a four-day weekend. It succeeded to a large extent as STR films always take a good start and there was an 85 to 90 % opening on day-one and two and holding well on Saturday.
Rajesh of Raja theatre in Kallidaikurichi says: “ Osthi is a racy mass masala that is being lapped up by the audiences. It has opened well and collections are steady.”
Dharani is happy the way the Osthi has opened. Says the director: “STR has proved once again that he has a star opening. I’m very happy that the opening collections are fantastic, inspite of releasing on a working day.”
Rajinikanth who will be working on his next project titled Kochadiayaan after dropping his ambitious Rana for which he had written the script is likely to start the work on his birthday which falls on the 12th of December.
The film will be directed by Soundarya Ashwin Rajinikanth and has dialogues/ screenplay written by director KS Ravikumar.
The latest buzz is that actress Sneha will be playing Rajinikanth's sister in the film. AR Rahman who was supposed to do Rana and the live-action animated film Dheera ( earlier titled Sultan) has been roped in to compose.
Sources said that the Oscar winning composer had already composed few tunes for the earlier projects and he might soon begin the work on this film as well. Well considering his list of projects and other international commitments we wonder how Rahman will be dedicating to this Rajini's film. However sources close to the film inform that AR Rahman who himself is a fan of Rajini was keen to compose for the film and will soon start on the work.
