Kollywood's satellite 'link' under threat?
Excerpts from an article in Chennai chronicle - 20/7/2015
A Catch - 22 situation is developing in Kollywood, where the lack of willingness of TV channels to pay for distribution rights up-front, is choking the funds available for producing the movies...........
................ satellite rights normally gets sold on the same day that a new film gets announced, and that fetches 30 percent of the budget invested by the producer.
.................. more than 100 films that released recently including, VAI RAJA VAI, TAMIZHIKKU EN ONRAI AZHUTTHAVUM, INDRU NETTRU NAALAI, BAAHUBALI AND MAARI as well as some upcoming movies like MAYA, YATCHAN & VSOP are stuck because of satellite rights not being sold ............
Bottomline - 'Kollywood' 'link' with the viewers facing a disconnect??
Solution: 'To circumvent the problem Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC) is going to implement a new regulation ........producers to give promotional materials only to the TV channel that buys the satellite rights......"
Rider: ......... with the exception of 'JAYA MAX'& Doordarshan.
HOW VERY FAIR!
but off course, U are welcome to come to ur own conclusions!
Until next time,
