Directed by Bejoy Nambiar, ‘Solo’ is a story with a mythical touch.
Bejoy Nambiar’s ‘Solo’, the anthology film starring Dulquer Salmaan has been re-released in Tamil Nadu today.
The director tweeted the news via his Twitter handle and has shared a list of theatres showing the film.
The film which was initially released as a bilingual on October 5th, was pulled from cinemas due to the stand-off between Tamil film producers and the government over imposition of entertainment tax over the existing Goods and Services Tax (GST).

The dispute was resolved when the government agreed to lower the tax from 10 per cent to 8 per cent for Tamil films. The tax for non-Tamil films is still 20%.
