Is Amaran Creating Hurdles for Kanguva?
12 November 2024, 1:31 pmAmaran’s Blockbuster Success Could Impact Kanguva’s Release in Tamil Nadu
Sivakarthikeyan’s Amaran, based on the real-life story of Major Mukund Varadarajan and directed by Rajkumar Periyasamy, hit theatres on October 31st as a Diwali special. The film has received positive feedback from audiences and has emerged as a massive hit. According to the production house, Amaran has grossed over ₹200 crore worldwide in its first 10 days.
Even in its second weekend, Amaran continued to dominate the box office, with many theatres in Tamil Nadu reporting houseful shows, and the film maintaining strong attendance on weekdays as well. This unexpected success has raised concerns for the upcoming release of Kanguva, which is set to hit theatres on November 14th.
With only a few days left for Kanguva‘s release, Amaran‘s continued success in Tamil Nadu could impact Kanguva’s screen count. Reports indicate that many theatre owners are considering keeping Amaran for an additional two weekends due to its overwhelming popularity, which could result in Kanguva losing some screens in the region.
If Kanguva receives positive reviews, it is expected to perform well despite Amaran‘s success. However, if Kanguva faces mixed reviews, Amaran may continue to dominate several theatres. Trade sources suggest that the fate of Kanguva at the box office will largely depend on its reception. It remains to be seen whether Kanguva can rise to success amidst the blockbuster impact of Amaran when it releases on November 14th.
