You've got to hand it to India, they're not shy about self-promotion there. Take upcoming Tamil language release Porkkalam - Battlefield in English - as an example. The debut feature from twenty four year old writer-director Bandi Saroj Kumar, Porkkalam is "a high voltage action thriller which is going to create a revolution in the history of INDIAN CINEMA." I know this because the title bar on the official website tells me so. I also know that "the action sequences are choreographed by the director in a natural and exciting way, without including the regular irritating commercial fantasies." Thanks guys! Good to know! But here's the thing: they've just released the first trailer for this one and it actually looks really damn good. So while I may tease it looks as though they may actually be living up to the PR bluster. Check it below!
