Is Suriya starrer Kanguva losing momentum due to limited screens for release and recent delay?
Suriya starrer Kanguva is reportedly becoming stagnant in release due to limited screens for release. Read on to find out what exactly happening.
Suriya's highly anticipated film, Kanguva, is set to release on November 14, 2024. However, just before its debut, the film is facing challenges that could impact its box office revenue. According to reports, "Kanguva" will only receive 50% of the available screens due to the ongoing success of Amaran.
According to the report, the Kanguva team has been denied additional screens, which could hinder the film's box office performance. Furthermore, the movie faced a setback when its release date was postponed to October 10, 2024, which coincided with Dusshera.
The makers of Kanguva initially postponed their movie’s release to avoid a clash with Rajinikanth starrer Vettaiyan, directed by TJ Gnanavel, which was released on the same day. However, despite being one of the highest-grossing Tamil cinema films in 2024, the Rajinikanth starrer is still reported to have underperformed in terms of the expectations the team had initially set.
Considering all these factors, Suriya's film Kanguva's box office performance has not been strong, and it will be interesting to see how it continues to perform.
Kanguva is a fantasy action film featuring the actor in a dual role. The story follows a brave tribal warrior who fights for his people against their enemies and explores how his battle connects to a shadowy police officer in the future.
Notably, Kanguva is a fantasy action film, a unique genre in Tamil cinema, featuring Suriya in a dual role. The film also marks the Tamil cinema debut of Bollywood stars Bobby Deol and Disha Patani. Natarajan Subramaniam, Yogi Babu, Redin Kingsley, Kovai Sarala, Anandaraj, and many more are also in critical roles. Additionally, the movie is touted as one of the most expensive films ever made in Indian cinema.
