Nayan and Tammu watch their films

Nayan and Tammu watch their films

January 17th, 2009

Nayanthara and Tamaannah arch rivals for 2009's number one heroine slot had their first encounter at the box-office as their Villu and Padikkathavan clashed this Pongal.

Both the girls were in Chennai on Pongal day to promote their films and also watch it with the audiences to gauge their reaction.

Nayanthara flew in from Kerala where she was shooting for the Malayalam film and after a live programme on a television channel, she headed straight to Kamala theatre in Vadapalani, a Vijay stronghold to watch Villu.

Nayan entered the hall after the film started, so nobody knew she was there at the screening. However, during the interval people recognized her and by the time the film was over the word went around and her security men had a tough time in controlling the huge crowd that had gathered to see her.

Tamannaah on the other hand, flew down from Mumbai and went staright to Albert theatre in Egmore, to watch Padikkathavan, first day first show. She was seeing her own film in a theatre for the first time, and really had a ball.

Tammu says she enjoyed every moment of this new experience of watching a film with a live audience who seems to be freaking out on the film. She was happy that nobody recognized her till she got into her car.
