This project marks a significant scale-up for Pradeep, transitioning from his signature youth-centric entertainers to a high-concept, technically advanced genre. This announcement comes on the heels of Pradeep's massive success last year, where he emerged as one of the most bankable stars in South cinema. In 2025, his film Dragon, directed by Ashwath Marimuthu, turned into a box office juggernaut.Dragon performed exceptionally well across territories, grossing over ₹151.83 crore worldwide and proving his massive pull among family and youth audiences alike.

Produced by the same banner, AGS Entertainment, her role in GOAT as Srinidhi solidified her position in the Tamil market and makes this reunion with the production house even more noteworthy. Both actresses bring a proven track record of commercial success, ensuring the film has strong appeal across both Tamil and Telugu heartlands. The collaboration between Pradeep Ranganathan and AGS Entertainment has evolved into one of the most bankable partnerships in the industry. This upcoming project marks their third major outing together, following the massive success of the youth-hit Love Today and the 2025 blockbuster Dragon. Producer Archana Kalpathi's continued trust in Pradeep's directorial vision highlights the studio's confidence in his ability to deliver high-return content. By moving from mid-range budgets to this high-stakes sci-fi venture, the duo is clearly aiming to set a new benchmark for production values in South Indian cinema.

Parasakthi Box Office: Sivakarthikeyan's Political Drama Secures a Solid Start

Directed by the acclaimed Sudha Kongara, the highly anticipated Tamil historical political drama Parasakthi made its theatrical debut yesterday, January 10, 2026.The film arrived amidst high expectations and significant pre-release buzz, particularly as it marks a departure from lead actor Sivakarthikeyan's usual commercial roles into a more intense, content-driven narrative.Despite facing last-minute hurdles with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) and concerns regarding a crowded January release window, the movie has managed to capture the audience's attention across the state. According to early estimates, Parasakthi has collected approximately ₹12.35 crore India Net and ₹14.75 crore India Gross on its opening day, while the overseas collection is around 10 crore. It is important to note that these figures are based on initial tracking and early estimates; the final figures may vary slightly as official data from all territories is consolidated. The film recorded an impressive overall Tamil occupancy of around 62.79% on Saturday, with night shows peaking at nearly 79%, indicating strong word-of-mouth that could propel the film through the rest of the Pongal week. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The film features a stellar ensemble cast, including Sivakarthikeyan in the lead role of Chezhiyan and Ravi Mohan (Jayam Ravi) as Thirunaadan. It also marks the highly anticipated Tamil debut of actress Sreeleela, who plays Rathnamala.The cast is further bolstered by Atharvaa Murali, Rana Daggubati and Basil Joseph in a cameo role, and a host of veteran actors like Prakash Belawadi and Guru Somasundaram.Set against the turbulent backdrop of the 1960s anti-Hindi imposition agitations in Madras State, the story explores the personal and political struggles of two brothers during a defining chapter of Tamil Nadu's history. Produced by Aakash Baskaran of Dawn Pictures, the film boasts high production values with music composed by G. V.Prakash Kumar and cinematography by the veteran Ravi K. Chandran. Parasakthi benefited significantly from a solo release window following the postponement of Thalapathy Vijay's Jana Nayagan, allowing it to secure extensive screen space across Tamil Nadu. While critics have offered mixed reviews regarding its pacing, the performances and the authentic recreation of the 1960s era have been widely praised, setting the stage for a competitive box office run in the coming days.

Parasakthi Preponed: Sivakarthikeyan Starrer Set for a Massive Clash with Vijay's Jana Nayagan;

According to reports, the makers of Parasakthi have preponed the film's theatrical release to January 10, 2026 (Saturday). The Sivakarthikeyan starrer was originally slated for a January 14 release, but it is now reported to arrive just a day after Thalapathy Vijay's Jana Nayagan. This strategic move sets up one of the biggest box office battles in recent history, as the film will now land just 24 hours after Thalapathy Vijay's final film, Jana Nayagan, which is scheduled for January 9. According to the latest reports from overseas and domestic distributors, Parasakthi is all set for a grand worldwide release with equal showcasing alongside Jana Nayagan. This ensures that despite the heavy competition, Sivakarthikeyan's milestone 25th film will have a significant screen count across all major territories. The production team is reportedly ecstatic after a private screening of the film. Insiders describe the project as a SURESHOT theatrical winner. To keep the narrative tight and engaging, the film has been locked with a crisp runtime of 2 hours and 35 minutes (155 minutes), a duration considered ideal for a high octane political drama. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In a bid to capture the massive Telugu market, the Telugu version of Parasakthi is also planned to release first, strategically arriving ahead of the heavy slew of local Sankranti releases. By moving to January 10, the film aims to capitalize on the extended festive weekend and the massive footfalls expected during the Pongal/Sankranti holidays. With Jana Nayagan carrying the Final Film emotional weight for Vijay fans and Parasakthi representing a career best effort for Sivakarthikeyan under Sudha Kongara's direction, the January weekend is poised to be historic.

Sivakarthikeyan’s Parasakthi Wraps Up: Sudha Kongara’s Political Epic Set for a Pongal 2026 Clash with Vijay’s Jana Nayagan

The highly anticipated Tamil film Parasakthi, directed by Sudha Kongara and starring Sivakarthikeyan, Jayam Ravi, and Atharvaa, has officially wrapped production and is gearing up for a grand Pongal release on January 14, 2026. The announcement came through the team’s latest post on X, confirming that the film has completed its shoot and entered the final phase of post-production. Produced by Dawn Pictures and distributed by Red Giant Movies, Parasakthi is a large-scale political period drama set against the backdrop of the 1965 anti-Hindi imposition agitations in Tamil Nadu. Sivakarthikeyan plays a revolutionary student leader, while Atharvaa takes on the role of a fiery activist, and Jayam Ravi is rumoured to appear as the antagonist, with Sreeleela making her Tamil debut. Backed by an impressive technical crew featuring G. V. Prakash Kumar—marking his 100th film as a music composer—Ravi K. Chandran on cinematography, and Sathish Suriya handling editing, the film promises a compelling blend of social relevance and mass appeal. Shot across locations such as Madurai, Pollachi, and parts of Sri Lanka, the film is said to have been made on a speculative budget estimated between ₹150–250 crore, making it one of the most ambitious Tamil productions of 2026.The Pongal window will witness a major box-office face-off as Parasakthi goes head-to-head with Vijay’s Jana Nayagan, directed by H. Vinoth and releasing just days earlier. Both films carry strong political undercurrents—Parasakthi rooted in historical rebellion, and Jana Nayagan exploring modern-day politics—setting the stage for one of Tamil cinema’s biggest festival face-offs.While Vijay’s pan-Indian star power gives Jana Nayagan an early edge, Parasakthi’s stellar lineup, guided by Sudha Kongara’s direction and elevated by G. V. Prakash’s milestone soundtrack, makes it a formidable contender. With such a high-profile festive clash on the horizon, it’s insightful to look at the recent box-office performances of the leading actors to gauge the potential stakes for Parasakthi. It’s worth looking back at the previous releases of the two leading actors to understand the stakes: Vijay’s Leo (2023) emerged as a mammoth commercial success, reporting a worldwide gross of around ₹605.9 crore, including an overseas haul of about ₹204 crore. Meanwhile, Sivakarthikeyan’s Madharaasi (2025) opened to good initial buzz but with more modest results: it collected approximately ₹98.75 crore worldwide (including about ₹25 crore overseas) Given this backdrop, Parasakthi appears to be stepping into a high-stakes arena. While Vijay’s Leo sets a very high benchmark, Sivakarthikeyan’s Madharaasi shows that although there is strong potential, sustaining performance is key. For Parasakthi, the challenge is dual: to out-perform Sivakarthikeyan’s own recent benchmark and to hold ground against the lingering aura of Vijay’s blockbuster success. The competition is real — and the festival release adds further pressure. If Parasakthi wants to emerge not just as a hit but as a defining film of the season, it will need strong word-of-mouth, robust box-office momentum and favorable timing to overcome both past performance pressure and existing star-driven precedents.All eyes are now on Pongal 2026, as two of the industry’s most awaited films prepare for a high-voltage cinematic showdown.

Pongal 2026 Showdown: Sivakarthikeyan's Parasakthi Joins The Festive Race Against Thalapathy Vijay's Jana Nayagan

Chennai, September 12 - The Tamil cinema is bracing up for a major box office showdown on Pongal 2026 after Sivakarthikeyan's much-awaited period political drama film Parashakti confirms indirect clash with Thalapathy Vijay's swan song Jana Nayagan. Directed by Sudha Kongara, Parashakti is reportedly based on true events, revolving around the Anti-Hindi agitations in Tamil Nadu that happened in 1965. On Friday (September 12), the makers announced that this much-awaited movie will be hitting worldwide cinemas on January 14, 2026, coinciding with the Pongal festival. Produced by Dawn Pictures, Parashakti was initially supposed to be headlined by Suriya, who backed out for some reason. It has Sreeleela as the female lead, alongside Ravi Mohan, who plays the antagonist. The film also stars Rana Daggubati, Atharvaa, Basil Joseph, and others. Parashakti will be released four days after Thalapathy Vijay's final film Jana Nayagan, before his political entry. Both movies are political thrillers, which are expected to score big box office numbers, and might also invite criticism for their genre. 💥💥💥😊👍 pic.twitter.com/jrljjJv98U— Sivakarthikeyan (@Siva_Kartikeyan) September 12, 2025 Stay tuned...

Box Office: 'Sarfira' and 'Indian 2' Opening Day Early Estimates

Mumbai, July 12 - Akshay Kumar's drama film Sarfira takes a low start at the box office with poor occupancy throughout the day. The movie was expected to see some boost due to the positive reviews which don't seem happening as it opens in the range of Selfiee. ## Sarfira, directed by Sudha Kongara, has had pre-sales between Akshay Kumar's previous two low starters, Selfiee and Mission Raniganj which indicated a low start which turns out to be true as it scored an estimated 2.25-2.50 crores net opening day. ## The movie was always going to open in a similar range due to its remake status which has struggled in the post-COVID era, and its subject which doesn't have mass appeal. The initial word of mouth, however, seems to be positive which can come into play over the weekend but it will be hard for it to make up for the very low opening. ## Kamal Haasan's Indian 2 (Hindi) also has a poor start which was expected due to negligible pre-sales. As per the early estimates, the movie is expected to open in the range of 1.25 crores net collection which might vary on either side when the actuals come. ## Indian 2, however, has a much better showing in all versions on its opening day as it is expected to score an estimated 25-26 crores net (30-31 crores gross) collection. The movie has opened on the expected lines with a slightly lower of the optimistic projections. ## In Tamil Nadu, it is expected to gross in the range of 13+ crores, followed by 9-10 crores in Telugu states which is a good collection. The rest of India gross of the movie is estimated to be around 8 crores, including around 4 crores in Karnataka. The word of mouth for Indian 2 seems to be mixed to negative which is likely to effect its biz in the coming days.## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Akshay Kumar's 'Sarfira' Opening Day Box Office Expectations

Mumbai, July 11 - Akshay Kumar's biographical drama Sarfira, a remake of the Tamil movie Soorarai Pottru, is finally hitting the big screens on July 12 after multiple delays and postponements. The movie is directed by Sudha Kongara who also directed the original movie starring Suriya. ## Sarfira has been the most anticipated new movie for the last couple of weeks, as per the IMDb's real-time popularity but the pre-sales response is telling a completely different story. The advance booking of Sarfira opened a couple of days ago but it has been progressing at a snail's pace and is not going anywhere. ## As of 4 PM on July 11, the pre-sales gross collection of Sarfira is only approximately 32 lakh with 15.6K sold for the opening day. With not much time left for the first show to start, the advance sales of the movie are heading for around 50+ lakh for the opening day which is very low. ## In comparison to the previous movies of Akshay, the pre-sales of Sarfira are trending a little above Selfiee which finished opening day sales at just around 40 lahks, and below Mission Raniganj (76 lakh gross), which are among the lowest for the actor in many years. Sarfira's pre-sales will probably finish somewhere between Selfiee and Mission Raniganj.## Selfiee opened at around 2.50 crores net while Mission Ranigang took the start of 2.80 crores net and a similar sort of opening is expected for Sarfira with a possibility of 3+ crores start depending on word of mouth. However, unlike Selfiee, Sarfira has to face challenges, first with holdover Kalki 2898 AD which is running strongly and second with Kamal Haasan's Indian 2 which is also releasing on July 12. ## Sarfira is not a mass entertainer, plus the original version of the film has widely been watched by the Hindi audience so the areas where a movie can grow are limited. Positive word of mouth is a must for the movie to expect some sort of growth over the weekend. ## Stay tuned...
