Rajinikanth’s Vettaiyan and Suriya’s Kanguva to lock horns at box office; Two-way competition gets bigger this Diwali

As a long-time follower of Tamil cinema, I’ve witnessed many fascinating moments that have left me both awestruck and amused. The upcoming clash between Rajinikanth’s Vettaiyan and Suriya’s Kanguva on October 10th, 2024, is one such moment that promises to be electrifying!


In 2024, two highly anticipated Tamil films – “Vettaiyan” starring Rajinikanth and “Kanguva” featuring Suriya – are set to captivate audiences. Following the success of his recent blockbuster “Jailer,” Rajinikanth continues to shine in top form. On the other hand, Suriya’s film marks his long-awaited debut into a Pan-Indian project, making it an exciting prospect for fans everywhere.

Approximately a month ago, creators of Kanguva set October 10th, 2024, as the launch date, generating anticipation among followers. Following several quiet weeks without any news, this announcement brought a sense of relief to Suriya’s fans. Most recently, the trailer for the film – unveiled a week ago – has rekindled enthusiasm in cinema enthusiasts.

Today, Lyca Productions, creators of Vettaiyan, officially confirmed October 10th, 2024 as the release date for their multi-starrer film featuring Superstar Rajinikanth. While today’s announcement makes it official, rumors had been circulating for some time that Vettaiyan was slated to premiere on this specific date.

Instead of pitting these two blockbusters against each other on the same day, it’s been suggested that a different release date for each would be more advantageous. Some even propose that the filmmakers should collaborate and rethink their joint release plan.

Occasionally, movies released on the same date compete with each other at the box office. These simultaneous releases can sometimes generate more income for actors by creating buzz and increasing ticket sales due to word of mouth.

In Indian cinema, the fiercest box office competition is between actors Thalapathy Vijay and Thala Ajith, who frequently release their films on the same day, yet consistently earn huge profits. Their latest releases, Varisu by Vijay and Thunivu by Ajith, premiered for the 2023 Pongal festival.

Yet, at present, it’s impossible to predict with absolute confidence. Ultimately, if both movies deliver captivating stories, they’ll undoubtedly attract viewers.
