The year 2024 began with unprecedented success for Malayalam cinema, making waves like never before. Telugu and Hindi cinema also had their usual impact at the box office. However, Tamil cinema, a significant contributor to Indian cinema, lagged behind in the first half of the year.
Telugu cinema saw massive blockbusters like “Hanuman”, “Tillu Square”, and “Kalki 2898 AD”. Malayalam cinema produced hits such as “Premalu”, “Manjummel Boys”, “Aadu Jeevitham”, and “Aavesham”. In Hindi cinema, “Fighter”, “Shaitaan”, and “Crew” achieved fair success at the box office. Meanwhile, Tamil cinema had only “Aranmanai 4” and “Maharaja” making an impact. The success of “Aranmanai 4” largely relied on the franchise’s hype, while “Maharaja” stood out as the only content-rich film that made a significant mark.
However, the second half of 2024 promises a complete turnaround for Tamil cinema, with a dozen exciting and bankable films set to release. The lineup includes:
— Rajinikanth in “Vettaiyan”
— Kamal Haasan in “Indian 2”
— Vijay in “The Goat”
— Ajith Kumar in “Vidaa Muyarchi”
— Vikram in “Thangalaan”
— Dhanush in “Raayan”
— Suriya in “Kanguva”
— Siva Karthikeyan in “Amaran”
— Karthi in “Vaa Vaathiyaar”
These films are expected to storm the box office, not only in terms of numbers but also in leaving a significant impact across the country. Tamil cinema is just getting started with the release of “Indian 2” this Friday, and many more entertaining films are set to follow throughout the year. A dominance of Tamil cinema is evident for the second half of 2024.
