It is widely known that Kollywood star Vijay’s new film, Varisu under the direction of Tollywood director Vamshi Paidipally is gearing up for Pongal 2023 release. Being bankrolled by Telugu producer Dil Raju, the film will have a simultaneous release in Telugu as Vaarasudu.
Meanwhile, the latest news coming in from our sources is that yet another star Tamil hero Ajith’s film, Thunivu is also aiming for a Pongal release. Though earlier news came out that Thunivu will be hitting the screens during Republic Day weekend, the latest reports suggest that the film will be out during the festival season itself. Being directed by H Vinoth, Bollywood filmmaker Boney Kapoor is bankrolling Thunivu with a massive budget.
As both Ajith and Vijay are leading stars in Tamil Nadu, it is for sure that the Tamil box office is going to witness the clash of Titans during the upcoming Pongal season. Earlier, both Vijay and Ajith films had a box office nine years before.
