Silambarasan is back to Chennai and the way! The actor's high voltage gangster flick 'Vettai Mannan' is garnering great expectations and the most recent is that the film's satellite rights has been snapped for a record price of 6 whooping crores!
Although it hasn't been confirmed of which television channel has bagged the rights, sources within the industry express that the Sun TV has bagged this film's satellite rights for six crore rupees.
This is the top ever for a STR starrer, beating his earlier record of Rs 5 crore for 'Vinnaithaandi Varuvaya' and Rs 5.5 crore for 'Osthi'. This implies there is a rapid increase within the satellite rights of STR's films meaning he's now considered a bankable star by TV channels and there is a bigger small screen marketplace for him.
STR was running from pillar to post for the recording of his pet project, a music album titled 'Love Anthem For World Peace and after two months of labor in it he's back to Chennai and immediately started work on 'Vettai Mannan' and a few comic sequences featuring him and VTV Ganesh was canned. Scenes featuring him and Hansika can be shot today.
The movie is directed by debutant Nelson and has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja who has delivered several hits with Simbu aka STR within the past.
