Following the average run of his last outing, Lal Salaam, Rajinikanth’s fans eagerly await his next film, Vettaiyan. So far, several details about the upcoming project have been revealed, including its star cast and a sneak peek of its story. However, details regarding its release have remained undisclosed until recently. The Tamil superstar has finally revealed the film’s release date, which seemingly collides with Jr NTR’s Devara: Part 1.
Rajinikanth’s Vettaiyan & Jr NTR’s Devara are likely to be released on the same day?
During one of his recent interviews on his spiritual journey, the actor opened up about his upcoming releases. The actor confirmed that his next film with TJ Gnanavel will be released on October 10, 2024. It was earlier revealed that the movie would be out in October, but its specific date was not confirmed back then. He allegedly said, “Vettaiyan will release for Dussehra. I have completed my portions. The shooting with other members of the cast is still going on. The film will release on October 10 or so.”
For the unversed, Jr NTR’s most awaited film, Devara: Part 1, will also hit theatres on the same day. This means the month of October 2024 will witness a massive box-office clash. While Rajinikanth’s prowess is known to the world, Jr NTR has also become a global sensation after RRR. Moreover, he has not starred in any movie since SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus.
Vettaiyan’s cast includes Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Ritika Singh, Manju Warrier, and Bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan. The movie is directed by TJ Gnanavel and produced by Lyca Productions. On the other hand, Devara will see Bollywood stars Janhvi Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan in crucial roles. Koratal Siva is directing the film, while Yuvasudha Arts and T-Series are producing it at a generous budget.
