The first year anniversary of Vishwaroopam

Feb 07, 2014

Today, February 7, marks 1 year since the theatrical release of Kamal Haasan's Vishwaroopam in Tamil Nadu. The film, as we know, had a delayed release in Tamil Nadu due to some political controversies surrounding the film's content and there was a major furor in the state about this issue. Kamal Haasan went to the extent of saying that he would leave Tamil Nadu and move to some other secular state in the country.

The film overcame all these obstacles and released in the state finally, to a massive response at the box-office. Vishwaroopam was among the Top 3 highest grossers in Tamil last year and the curiosity about the film and its entertaining screenplay made sure that most of the people of TN saw the movie atleast once.

Behindwoods remembers this remarkable one year journey of Vishwaroopam, a movie which will always remain in memory for being a never-seen-before experience. The scale and canvas of the movie are something which can be matched only by its sequel which gets ready for release, sometime in the coming months.
