Double bill for Irrfan Khan

Irrfan Khan would be enjoying an unexpected double bill this January. In addition to his much anticipated SUNDAY which releases on 25th January, an old film of his - TULSI - would also be seeing a theatrical release a week earlier i.e. 18th January.

Not much is known about TULSI, an art house film; except for the fact that it is the remake of Telugu film MATHRU DEVO BHAVA. Released way back in 1993, the film was directed by K Ajayakumar who is also the man behind TULSI.

Produced by C H Padmavathi, TULSI is arriving amidst minimal publicity and zero hype and it would be a surprise if it manages to garner even an all India release, let alone open well at the box office. On the other hand SUNDAY, which releases a week later, has enjoyed the kind of publicity blitzkrieg which takes just the opposite route and boasts of an unabashed on-your-face promotional campaign.
