In a strategic move to ensure a successful box office run, ‘Top Star’ Prashanth’s much-anticipated film ‘Andhagan’ has advanced its release date to August 9th, 2024. This decision comes as a response to avoid a direct clash with other major releases, including ‘Chiyaan’ Vikram’s ‘Thangaalan’, Arulnithi’s ‘Demonte Colony 2’, and Keerthy Suresh’s ‘Raghu Thatha’, among others.
The Strategic Shift
The original release date for ‘Andhagan’ was set for later in August. However, with the crowded release schedule featuring high-profile films, the producers decided to preemptively shift the date. This move is expected to provide ‘Andhagan’ with a better opportunity to capture audience attention and maximize its box office potential.
