Tulu cinema

The Tulu film industry is a part of Indian cinema. The Tulu film industry is also called Coastalwood. It produces 5 to 7 films annually. The first Tulu film was Enna Thangadi released in 1971. Usually, earlier, these films were released in theatres across the Tulu Nadu region.[1] But currently the Tulu film industry has grown to the level where films are being released simultaneously in Mangalore, Udupi and Mumbai, Bangalore and Gulf countries.
