Suresh Babu said 40 to 50 films every year would be made with Auro technology, which offers a completely new audio and visual experience to the audience.
Some films in Tamil and Malayalam were already produced with Auro 11.1. Worldwide 50 films, including some Hollywood films, were made with the technology, described as next big step in audio by Van Baelen.
It offers audiences an enthralling immersive sound experience by reproducing sound on three axes with three layers of sound which create a natural spread of acoustic energy.
