Kanthaswamy to grace 1000 theatres
Kanthaswamy (Mallana in Telugu), Vikram's super hero film directed by Susi Ganesan and produced by Kalaipuli S. Thanu with a whopping budget of 70 crores, is all set to grace screens across Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh with 600 prints this month. According to reports, the producer is planning to release the movie throughout world in over 1000 theatres.
In Kerala, the movie, distributed by Thameens, will grace 70 theatres. A superman-like story with a logical twist, Kanthaswamy was filmed in five countries and is dubbed in two foreign languages: Italian and Spanish. Shriya plays the female lead.
The story is about the economic differences that prevail between different classes of the Indian population. The film's protagonist is an investigating officer of high rank. While handling problems related to the country's security and development, the officer goes through specific property details of affluent businessmen and NRIs. On further investigation, he finds that the wide gap between the rich and the poor is the root cause for so many problems.
He tries to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor. How? By using his position and power, Vikram identifies and unearths crores of rupees of unaccounted money tucked away by the bigwigs in remote nooks and corners of the globe under varied names and ownerships and distributes them legitimately to the middle class and lower middle class people. All the adventures he goes through during his mission is what make the film fascinating.
