Little
Rock, Arkansas - USA
We are writing on behalf of
all the Rajini fans in the home town of the former
president Bill Clinton – Little Rock, Arkansas. Tamil
Population in this small
town is very less and it is challenging to run a Tamil
movie in local theatre, but we die-hard fans determined
to bring this mega budgeted SIVAJI movie and started
planning ahead at least by 40days in prior to draw the
entire possible crowd in our unique way of marketing.
Mr. Ulaganathan an experienced distributor for Tamil
movies in our hometown is the key to bring Sivaji within
3 days (18th June 2007) from the date of release. But we
could not control our nerve, after hearing the news that
our neighboring state 'Tennessee' is running the movie
on 14th June 2007
(Tamil). So we decided to watch the preview show in
Memphis, TN. The hours we needed to commute didn't deter
us as our conversations were filled with either pre-show
excitement or post-show discussions. After watching the
movie our quotations were 'Awesome, Superb, Fantastic,
Wonderful, Marvelous, Extremely Sauvé and Stylish. Which
word would be appropriate? We think all of them, and it
was an absolute treat to get a chance to be one of the
first to watch this great movie!
Our excitement and feelings started growing on thinking
that 'We will be watching it AGAIN in our hometown'. On
a Stormy Gusty day with all the hurdles we faced, we
could only screen the first show at 11:00P.M. (Schedule
to screen at 6:30P.M. Monday 18th June) But….
All the Families including Elders and Kids waited
patiently and watched the movie until 3A.M. in spite of
being a working day. "The response was huge", at the end
a 4yr old boy mimicked BOSS punch line 'Chumma Pera
Ketta Athirudhulla'…Rajni style influences him to do
this. First time we went online. People from neighboring
states like Texas, Missouri, Tennessee and our hometown
fans got the publicity from your site and propelled us
to screen the movie next day. We screened the movie
Tuesday 19th June at 6:30 P.M. and some of us watched
the movie for the second time. 'Where no other fan would
have this great opportunity to enjoy this movie 2 times
in just 24 hrs"
To share this wonderful experience to you, I'm attaching
our memphis and Little Rock show pics. Also I'm having
video response of the crowd is with me. Soon I will
upload in to youtube or google video and let u know.
Thanks
