Vishwaroopam / Vishwaroop

DTH.....Three letters you would never forget with this film. Although the simultaneuos dth release of the kamalahassan starrer has been cancelled its been a huge boon for the film's publicity..:p...Ever since the first trailer launched i was excited to see this venture because i've been a kamal fan from .....aah i dont know....dashavatharam was the first film of him i saw in theatres(sigh)....but i quiet liked it for its treatment and storytelling rather for the poor visual effects even by bollywood or tamil standards...

Now about Viswaroopam....The bilingual movie is the first Indian movie to be mixed with Auro 3D 11.1 Sound MIX for the theatres...Unfortunately only a handful of theatres in chennai and .... support this format of sound and it calls for a little big investment for the traditional theatre owners in india who has not even upgraded their sound systems to 7.1 dolby sorround..! Auro 3D is almost similar to the Dolby Atmos sound mixing which was introduced in India with the revival of Rajni blockbuster Sivaji in 3D released on Dec.12 2012. Dolby Atmos is currently installed in Satyam Cinemas Chennai. Vishwaroopam has many helicopter/war scenes i believe should sound good with speakers above your head in Auro 3D.

RED...:) The movie according to imdb was shot on Red One MX Camera by D.O.P Sanu John Varughese who shot Karthik Kalling Karthik and the brilliant b/w portions of  Bejoy Nambiar's upcoming 'David'. The Digital Intermediate of the movie was done at Pixion studios.

Visual Effects....From whatever seen from the trailers the movie seems to have decent visual effects way better than the actor's dashavatharam. The Vfx of the film is supervised by Mr. Madhu Sudhanan who also worked as the vfx supervisor on the highly stylized ajith starrer Billa 2. He has distributed the work to many indian studios such as Srk's Red Chillies VFX, Pixion , Prasad's EFX , GeminiFX, Alien Sense,Jupiter Animation and many other small studios for Vishwaroopam....after seeing all these studio's working on one single project such as this i hope vfx doesnt protrude out and better enhance the movie's narrative..:)

Releasing day after tomorrow worldwide.......All the Best to Kamalahassan and each and every member of the Crew.

Here's the trailer+bts mixed into one....(Tamil)
