Billa hits theaters today

Billa, Ajith's most-awaited release and the most hyped film of the year, after Sivaji, is to be screened across 10 screens in Chennai.
The team had earlier planned to release the film today to coincide with the superstar's birthday but postponed it due to postproduction delays, to 14 December 2007.
Ajith was particular that Rajinikanth graces the function as he was dedicating the film to the superstar. However, much to his disappointment, Rajini had expressed his desire to visit Bangalore on his birthday and his inability to attend the premiere. It is common knowledge that Rajini, as a convention, has been celebrating his birthday away from Chennai for a long time now. Anyway, he had earlier seen the trailer and had lauded Ajith and director Vishnu Vardhan for doing a commendable job. The Billa team is gung ho on receiving compliments from the superstar himself.
The team is so particular that no information about the movie is released in the media that they have gone ahead and even canceled the premieres that were to be held today under Ajith's request to the producers and directors as he wanted his fans, to whom he bestows all his success, to watch the movie first. A noble gesture indeed very much in the lines of the superstar himself.
