The event marked the inauguration of an 80,000 sq.ft block that has been completed and the foundation stone laying of a 40,000 sq.ft block. Both the blocks are situated in Anna Salai, where the Film Chamber has been there right from its inception. The event was attended by all veteran producers of the industry including S.A. Chandrashekhar, Kalaipuli S Thanu, Ibrahim Rowther, Editor Mohan among others.
The CM did the honors from her office in the Secretariat. Present along with her in the office were film chamber President C.Kalyan, secretaries Ravikottarakkra and L.Suresh, representing the Film Chamber. After the inauguration, the CM said that it was an honor for her to be able to inaugurate the new facilities because the Film Chamber was originally inaugurated by Arignar Anna many years back and that MGR too had a long association with the chamber. She said that Tamil cinema was now marching towards 100 years and wished that the journey should never come to a stop.
