The upcoming Pongal 2025 festival may witness a high-stakes clash in Kollywood, with Ajith Kumar’s ‘Vidaamuyarchi’ and the much-anticipated ‘Good Bad Ugly’ both eyeing a Sankranti release. While ‘Vidaamuyarchi’ recently unveiled its teaser and officially locked Pongal as its release window, reports now suggest that Mythri Movie Makers, the producers of ‘Good Bad Ugly’, are equally determined to release their film during the festive season.
Initially, industry insiders speculated that ‘Good Bad Ugly’ might shift to a summer release to avoid competition. However, Mythri Movie Makers have reportedly ruled out any delays, emphasizing that Pongal works best for the film’s economics. With the film’s shoot nearing completion, the team is confident about meeting the deadline.
This development puts Ajith Kumar in a delicate situation. On one hand,’Vidaamuyarchi’ has been in the works for a longer period and has garnered significant anticipation following its teaser launch. On the other hand,’Good Bad Ugly’ was the first to announce its intent for a Pongal release, making the clash inevitable unless one of the teams backs down.
Given Ajith’s reputed amicable approach, many believe he may show consideration towards the ‘Vidaamuyarchi’ team. However, with both films boasting their own merits and high expectations, fans are gearing up for a thrilling festival season at the box office. It remains to be seen how this face-off unfolds.
