The number of films eyeing for release for the Gandhi Jayanti weekend is on the upswing. Earlier, R. Kannan’s Oru Oorla Rendu Raja confirmed its release on October 2nd. Now, the makers of Yaan have confirmed that it will also release on the same day. Though it’s quite natural for producers to capitalize on three-day holiday weekends, this rush of releases between relatively small films is certainly not healthy. Vijay Sethupathi and Kreshna-starrer Vanhmam and SJ Suryah’s comeback film Isai are also in the running for a October 2nd release.
Featuring Jiiva and Thulasi Nair in lead roles, Yaan marks the directorial debut of ace cinematographer Ravi K. Chandran. It has music by Harris Jayaraj.
