CHENNAI: Come Valentine���s day ( February 14) and Kollywood will see the release of not a romantic film, but of the dubbed version of one of cinema���s biggest dramas ��� Slumdog Millionaire. K Natarajan, of Falcon films, has bought the Tamil rights for the Oscar nominee, paying a sum of over Rs.50 lakhs.
Slumdog Millionaire has been dubbed as " Naanum Koteeswaran" (I am a millionaire too), with popular Tamil actor Simbu lending his voice for the lead role played by Dev Patil, and veteran playback singer S P Balasubramaniam dubbing for Anil Kapoor.
"The film will be released in 90 to 100 centres in the state, though it hasn���t been decided how the promotion of the film will be done and which theatres it will be exhibited ," Mr.Natarajan said.
The producer is optimistic about the film���s expected response in Tamil Nadu, as he feels the movie strikes a chord with an Indian scenario rather than exclusively with Mumbai.
