Usually, if a high-profile film hits the screen during the holiday week or on special occasions, other filmmakers prefer not to compete and risk overshadowing their projects. This strategy not only helps avoid a box office clash but also ensures that the major release can draw the full attention of the audience, maximizing its profitability. When a big project monopolizes the spotlight, it often translates into record-breaking earnings, underscoring the impact of careful release timing in the movie industry.
However, this August 15th, a rare and intriguing scenario is unfolding. Allu Arjun’s highly anticipated “Pushpa: The Rule” is set for release, but it will not enjoy a solo debut. Keerthy Suresh’s film, “Raghu Thatha,” will go head-to-head with the blockbuster. The decision to release “Raghu Thatha” on the same date suggests a bold move by its makers, confident in the film’s unique appeal and Keerthy Suresh’s star power.
The makers of “Raghu Thatha” announced their release date recently, with Keerthy Suresh describing the film as a heartwarming adventure, promising a hilarious, emotional, and empowering rollercoaster ride. Additionally, “Raghu Thatha” will be released in Tamil under the title “Kayalvizhi.” This clash sets the stage for an exciting box office battle, as audiences will be keen to see if Keerthy Suresh can attract crowds despite the high anticipation for “Pushpa: The Rule.”
