'Vettaiyan', 'Indian 2', to 'GOAT': Upcoming Tamil biggies and their release plans

The first quarter of 2024 is over, and we haven't seen many big releases yet in Tamil. The Lok Sabha election has made the new releases push their release date further, and several movies that were slated to release in April are now being postponed to a later date. The production houses of Tamil biggies have been announcing their release plan to make other big releases stay away from them. We have seen Rajinikanth's 'Vettaiyan' and Kamal Haasan's 'Indian 2' makers publicizing their release plans. Here is a look at upcoming Tamil biggies and their release plans.

Chiyaan Vikram starrer 'Thangalaan' was the first film to step out from April release due to the Lok Sabha election. 'Thangalaan' is now rescheduled to release in theatres this May and we can expect the exact release date to be announced officially on April 17 on the occasion of the lead actor's birthday. Directed by Pa Ranjith, 'Thangalaan' is a period drama set between the 1870s and 1940s, and it will explain the evolution of Kolar Gold Field (KGF)
