Katamarayudu will be Pawan Kalyan's biggest release in US

With less than a week away for the release of Pawan Kalyan’s Katamarayudu, which is already riding on excellent pre-release buzz, HT has learnt from reliable sources that the film will release in a whopping 250 plus screens in the US, making it the biggest release in the actor’s career. The overseas distributor hopes that the unprecedented craze for the film turns into footfalls in order to register very strong premiere numbers.

Even though an official remake of Tamil film Veeram, fans of Pawan Kalyan are eagerly looking forward to the release because of the overall positive response for the film’s teaser, audio and trailer released over the weekend. Directed by Kishore Kumar Pardasani aka Dolly, the film also stars Shruti Haasan and Tarun Arora among others. Pawan Kalyan’s dhoti-clad avatar from the movie has already become a hit and many of his ardent fans plan to watch the film in the same avatar on the first day.

Director Dolly believes the film features Pawan Kalyan in his best role ever and that his performance will appeal to all sections of the audience. With the film due for release in India on Friday, it is believed to open in record number of screens.
