'Pudupettai' is biggest draw in Tamil box office
By Aparna Nath, Indo-Asian News Service
Chennai, June 27 (IANS) Selvaraghavan's "Pudupettai" did not set the box office on fire like his previous two releases, "7 G Rainbow Colony" and "Kadhal Konden", yet it continues to be the top selling Tamil film -- mainly because of lack of competition.
The top five Tamil films are:

1. "Pudupettai" - Director: Selvaraghavan - Selvaraghavan's "Pudupettai" drags on. Unlike his earlier films, this one has an overdose of violence, blood and gore. Still, it is the biggest draw at the moment.
2. "Parijatham" - Director: Bhagyaraj - "Parijatham" would have been a better film and bigger success if Bhagyaraj had not entered the film in the second half. Till then, the film had a clean, neat fun look. But Bhagyaraj, with his old brand of loud humour, spoilt everything in the second half.
3. "Thalainagaram" - Director: Suraj - The moderate success of "Thalainagaram" must have boosted the ego of director-turned-actor Sundar C, better known as actress Khushboo's husband.
4. "Naalai" - Director: Udayabanu Maheshwaran - If this film on Chennai underworld had come out earlier, everybody would have appreciated it. But it took a long time to hit the screens and by then people had seen "Pattiyal" -- and there is not much difference between the two films.
5. "Jerry" - Director: S.B. Kanthan - Actor 'Crazy' Mohan's crazy, crass comedies always achieve a reasonable degree of success in the cities.
