Trade Pundits have often established that clashes are not good for business. But you can’t blame filmmakers for pitting their films against each other because there are only so many Fridays. However, what’s happening down South will surely stun you! As many as ten Tamil films are releasing on August 3. They are Ghajinikanth, Maniyaar Kudumbam, Arali, Kadigara Manithargal, Enga Kaatula Mazh ai, Poya, UppuPuliKaaram Kaatu Paiya Sir Indha Kaali, Kadal Kuthiraikal and Naadodi Kanavu. It has happened very rarely when ten films have decided to take on each other at the box office.

Out of all these films, Ghajinikanth is getting a lot of traction because of the strange storyline. The film is about a man who is a Rajinikanth fan but a tragic turn of events leaves him with short-term memory loss. Now you know Ghajini reference. Earlier, Diwali was supposed to be crowded for Tamil Cinema viewers with stars like Suriya, Vikram, Vijay’s films getting released during the auspicious time. But now Suriya has moved his film to Christmas.
