For the first time in the history an audio CD of a movie will be sold one lakh copies on the day of the release. It is one of the rarest happenings in 75 years of Tamil cinema history.
The audio of Vijayakanth ' Navneeth Kaur starrer 'Arasangam' is slated to be launched on March 28. The launch function will be held in Chennai like any other audio CD of a film. But the producers of 'Arasangam' have planned to make the release a grand event by organizing audio release functions all over Tamil Nadu.
Captain Vijayakanth's DMDK is gearing up for the event as if it is a party function. The office bearers of the party have booked one lakh CDs for the event. The functions held in all districts will also mark the launch of many welfare schemes. This would be the first time an audio track selling one lakh copies on the first day itself. Orders have been received even from Andaman Nicobar islands for 350 CDs. This is the first time such orders coming from the island.
Srikanth Deva has scored the music while Rhythm Music has procured the audio rights.
a'Arasangam', Captain's 150th film, is produced by L.K. Sudheesh and directed by director R. Madhesh. A large portion of the film has been shot in Toronto, Canada in 45 days. It has been said that a few Hollywood and Canadian film artists have assisted in the production of the film. The film is expected to be released by the second week of April.
