The box-office clashes are inevitable in the film industry, regardless of industry or the language. Especially during festival times, makers try to place their big-budget movies to cash-in on the audiences’ splurge and earn solid box-office numbers. The competition at the ticket counters can gradually turn into a frenzy among fans who celebrate their favorite stars by going an extra mile.
On the positive side, multiple releases on the same-day or for a festival will be seen as a very interesting prospect for movie buffs to experience. Thala Ajith and Thalapathy Vijay are unarguably two big powerhouses of Kollywood with unmatchable stardom. Lastly, this duo has faced off at box-office in 2014 (with Veeram and Jilla) and it was clash of the Titans. After a long gap of 8+ years, Thala and Thalapathy are likely to face eachother on auspicious occasion of Sankranthi-2023 to battle it out for the highly anticipated flicks – Varisu and Thunivu.
Vijay joined hands with Vamsi Paidipally for an action drama ‘Varisu’ and Thunivu is based on an infamous 1987 Ludhiana bank robbery case which is being made by H Vinoth. While Varisu already confirmed for Pongal, there is still no official announcement from Thunivu makers.
