Chennai, May 4 The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has now cleared director Rathna Kumar's eagerly awaited upcoming romantic entertainer '29 The Film', featuring actors Vidhu and Preethi Asrani in the lead, for release with a 'U/A' certificate.
Taking to its X timeline, Stone Bench Productions, one of the two production houses producing the film, wrote, "Unconditional love Accepted - #29theFilm is censored with a UA. In theatres worldwide on the 8th of May! #29FromMay8."
Expectations from the film have shot up among fans and film buffs, ever since the makers released a glimpse video from the film, titled 'The World of 29'.
The video that was released features an interesting romantic sequence from the film. It shows Sathya (Vidhu) and Viji (Preethi Asrani) having a conversation on the beach. Viji is cross with Sathya for not proposing to her. Tired of waiting for him to profess his love for her, she confronts him and points out that despite dropping several hints that she was interested in him, he hadn't opened up his heart to her.
Sathya, in his defence, says he was looking for a special place to propose to her. She thinks he is trying to lie to escape her anger. But then, he seeks a moment and tries pacing up and down the beach stretch until he finds a particular point.
He then calls her to his side and tells her that it was this spot that he was looking for to propose to her. Viji asks him what is special about the spot as it looks the same as the remaining stretch, with sand and stones.
Sathya replies, " If you move a few yards to the right, you will hear the noise of vehicles plying on the road, if you move a few yards in the opposite direction, you will hear the sound of the waves. However, at this point, you will only hear the sound of the breeze over the waves like how you hear the breeze in a conch."
A curious Viji tries moving around and realises that what he is saying is the truth. He then proposes to her, by popping a romantic question and she compliments him saying, "You are a tasteful admirer."
The film is slated to hit screens worldwide on May 8 this year. For the unaware, the unit of 29 had wrapped up shooting on January 30 this year.
Director Rathna Kumar had then taken to his X timeline to make the announcement. He posted a picture of a cake with the words 'Shoot Wrap' written on it and a video that showed the team crushing a ceremonial pumpkin to mark the completion of shooting and wrote, "Poosinikaaaa Day (Pumpkin Day)."
The film is being produced by G Squad, which is owned by director Lokesh Kanakaraj, and Stone Bench Productions, which is owned by Karthik Subbaraj.
Written and directed by Rathna Kumar, the film, apart from featuring Vidhu and Preethi Asrani in the lead, will also feature Master Mahendran, Avinash, Shenaz Fathima and Premkumar among others. Mathankumar has co-directed this film, the music of which has been composed by Sean Roldan.
