A court in Madurai has issued summons to filmstar Rajinikanth and others asking them to appear before it on March 8 in connection with a suit filed against his film Lingaa.

The grand opening of actor Ajith's film Vedalam is being seen as a new high at the Tamil box office. Experts say it's the biggest ever opening, beating even superstar Rajinikanth's Lingaa that clocked Rs 13 crores last year. Many now look at Thala, as he's fondly called, as the next superstar in the making
Unlike Bollywood movies, it is not so easy for Tamil movies to collect Rs 100 crores. So far, only 10 Tamil movies have managed to reach the milestone worldwide at the box office.
