The
Ramzan releases in Kerala seem to be
bleak with the rift between the Kerala
theatre owners and Kerala film producers
widening. According to the theatre owners,
new releases should not be screened
in over 45 theatres across the states,
as it is affecting the films already
being screened. But the Kerala film
producers are against this decision.
The films that are likely to be affected by
this rift are Mammootty's Maya Bazaar and
Mohanlal's Kurukshetra as the producers had
planned to release these films in about 90
theaters in Kerala which is strongly opposed
by the theatre owners.
Meanwhile, with the impending Ramzan festival
tomorrow, the state's Minister of Culture
Mr. Baby and Local Administration Minister
Mohammad Kutty are holding discussions with
both the parties to bring the issue to an
end amicably. It is to be noted that the issues
must be resolved today as the state celebrates
Ramzan tomorrow.
