Looks like the Russians will soon
get a taste of our song and dance
routines. In an effort to strengthen
the relationship between the two
countries and to introduce ‘some
facets of Indian culture’,
old and new Tamil movies are planned
to be screened in Moscow. The Indo-Russian
Chamber of Commerce also has plans
to launch a website matrusshka.com
that will list the Indian movies
screened in Russia apart from other
services.
Movies being considered to be screened
include the old classics Saraswati
Sabatham, Vasantha Maligai, Pudiya
Paravai and blockbusters from the
recent times including Muthu and
Vettaiyadu Vilayadu. There will
also be a Russian Film Festival
in December in Chennai followed
by an Indian Film Festival in Moscow
in January, Thenappan, Secretary
of the Indo-Russian Chamber of Commerce
was quoted as saying to a tabloid.
