One of the old and leading Tamil channels Raj TV has acquired the satellite rights of Mani Ratnam’s ‘Raavanan’ for an astronomical amount of Rs.five crores.
Well ‘Raavanan’’s Hindi version ‘Raavan’ is being premiered in London and while the premiere’s not over yet, the sale of the rights has been announced. It is learnt that a tough battle for buying the rights had taken place and Raj TV emerged winner among all the other Tamil satellite channels. With this ‘Raavanan’ comes to the second place of the ‘Highest Paid Tamil Movie for Satellite Rights’ list. With the first being Rajinikanth’s ‘Sivaji’.
Buying the rights, Raj TV that has always been screening small budget or old movies, has for the first time bought a big budget movie for such a huge price. Nevertheless the efforts will pay off when ‘Raavanan’ will have a Television premiere on a festive day!
