Let the Stalins and the Lenins and the Molotovs preen all they want, but the new Tamil film Ko (Jiva, Karthika Nair) is not a big hit with Tamil movie fans.
At least, not at the UK box office.
Here’s how Ko fared in its opening weekend at the UK box office vis-a-vis a few other Tamil movies:

apparently masjid’s arent the only places of worship in this country where you can expect to get the sh#t beat out of you just for attending services….next you’ll see tibetan monks weilding battle axes at aum shinriko followers!

Somebody help us vis-a-vis the above video, is it Sick or Sikh? 😉
At one time, some of these idiots wanted a separate nation called Khalistan. But as a wag rightly said, the only Khalistan (empty space) is in their head.
this is a good example of what to expect when sara palin visits india later this year!

No idea, long since we were there.
This film could have been more appropriately called as “Ku”.

Howdy sweetie!
Just getting ready to open a bottle of Karma Beer (Indian). 😉
If you have Netflix Instant Play, you might want to consider watching A World Without Thieves.
We may watch Black Swan tonight.
I read your review of A World Without Thieves. Will check it out.
Did you read the news that may have sent a million Tamil people into diarrhea?

Yeah, saw it this morning.
Any news on how many ‘fans’ killed themselves because Rajini felt a little uneasy? 😉
I was out for a week vacationing in Utah. Beautiful place for anyone who enjoys nature. If you haven’t been there already then I highly recommend it.
Interested in a review of “India Masala” restaurant in the Las Vegas strip?
SearchIndia.com Responds:
Will send you an e-mail on India Masala shortly.
Haven’t been there…been to the others Gandhi, Tamba, Indian Oven & two more whose names elude us now.
Sigh, haven’t gone west of Chicago up North.
One of my friends works for an agency which helps Tamil movie makers plan for their 1 week, 25 day, 50 day celebrations with posters, media releases, hooks with TV channels. All of this before the movie is released.
Anyways most movies are produced by folks wanting to convert their black money…

On a slightly related note, if Bhai aka Dawood Ibrahim is really behind the financing of a lot of Bollywood movies how do you explain piracy of new Hindi movies originating from the Middle East?
Piracy “could” be a hedging strategy to ensure that profits are not to high so as to invoke the wrath of Income tax 🙂
Have you watched Mel Brooks or his classic 1968 version?
The tamil industry as you’d pointed in one of your posts has been turned into a cesspool with Mu Ka’s progeny.
On an kind of related note, did you know the producer of Ko, Udayanidhi Stalin is becoming a hero for an upcoming film? What do you think are his chances?
SearchIndia.com Responds:
1. Piracy as a hedging strategy seems novel but not sure if it makes sense.
2. The only Mel Brooks film we’ve watched is Silent Movie.
3. Regarding Udayanidhi Stalin as Hero, well, if zeroes like Ajith, Vishal and Trisha can become stars why deprive this clown U Stalin of a shot at fame.
As for UdaSta’s chances, given Tamils’ abiding love for all things obscene, vulgar, garish and crude we’d say his chances are pretty good!
