Theatrical release of first film
Photon Kathaas Productions Ltd. (AIM: PKP, "PKP"), the South
Indian film company, announces today the theatrical release of
"Nadunisi Naaygal" (Dogs of the Midnight), its first production
following the Company's admission to AIM in November 2010.
Nadunisi Naaygal is a small budget Tamil language production
directed by PKP's Chief Creative Officer Gautham Vasudev Menon and
is a three-way co-production between PKP, R.S. Infotainment and
Escape Artists.
PKP has already secured revenues from TV rights of some
$420,000, with further revenues expected from sales to domestic and
international theatre (cinema), dubbing in other South Indian
languages and other rights. The movie's total production cost was
in the order of $900,000.
Venkat Somasundaram, PKP Chief Executive said:
"We are delighted with the reaction to Nadunisi Naaygal which is
our first feature film post our admission to AIM.
"One of our objectives of listing in London was to create South
India's first studio-led film company and to build Photon Kathaas
Productions into a brand that would be a magnet for talent and
allow us to secure premium pricing for our output."
