Finally the day has indeed arrived. The most expected and the largely awaited event in the recent times, the official release of Sivaji audio finally took place this morning. Though three songs were released in the net in an unauthorized manner, people did not fail to throng the shops for the purchase of audio tapes and CDs of the film.
The curiosity aroused by the cover of the audio and the stills that go with it remained unabated. Though today is the beginning of the week, this did not deter people from flocking to their favorite audio shops to purchase CDS and cassettes of Sivaji.
