It is quite well-known that TV channels across all languages telecast new and recently-released films on festive dates for audience to enjoy the special day. Soon after a movie's release top channels compete for the satellite rights for the movie inorder to rope in more viewers for their channel.
Now we hear that recently-released movies such as Sivakarthikeyan's 'Doctor', Arya's 'Sarpatta Parambarai' and Santhanam's 'Dikkiloona' are gearing up for world television premiere on November 4, coinciding with the festive date of Deepavali.
'Doctor's' satellite rights has been bagged by Sun TV. The dark-comedy film which was released on October 9 has been running successfully in theatres, receiving tremendous response from fans and critics alike. The film directed by Nelson Dilipkumar is also expected to be released for Diwali on the popular channel along with an OTT release that night. However, an official confirmation from the channel is awaited.
We had reported a few weeks back that Kalaignar TV had bought the satellite rights for the Arya-starrer sports drama film. The ace-actor tweeted about the same and confirmed the news. The movie directed by Pa Ranjith is set to be released for Diwali. The channel, which has been releasing promos, has confirmed the date and time of telecast as November 4, 6.30 pm.
