AAYIRATHIL ORUVAN UNDERGOES CUTS

The makers of Aayirathil Oruvan have decided to cut about 20 minutes of the film. While the earlier version was 3:05 hours, the new version will go on for 2:45 hours. The scenes that went under the scissors were the gory death of Parthiban, the controversial scenes of Reema Sen, and the snake scenes.

Movie buffs have also complained that the ancient Tamil spoken during the second half is difficult to comprehend. Due to this, the second half will have sub-titles for better understanding.

The new version is expected to bring in more people to the theatres.
