The
year
2020
will
always
be
remembered
for
bringing
the
lives
of
people
across
the
world
to
a
standstill.
The
COVID-19
pandemic
and
the
subsequent
lockdown
took
control
over
almost
everything
and
turned
social-distancing
into
the
new
normal.
The
entertainment
industry
which
is
known
as
one
of
the
most
lucrative
industries
of
the
world
witnessed
a
sink
with
the
pandemic.
Theatres
were
closed,
shoots,
telecasts
and
even
releases
of
a
few
big
films
were
kept
on
hold
for
an
indefinite
period.
The
technicians
and
workers
who
were
already
struggling
to
make
ends
meet
were
left
jobless
with
the
lockdown.
On
the
other
hand,
the
emergence
of
OTT
platforms
attracted
the
attention
of
a
few
makers
for
releasing
their
movies,
while
another
section
refrained
from
it
stating
that
their
film
is
completely
meant
for
a
theatrical
experience.
For
Kollywood,
2020
was
expected
to
be
a
promising
year,
but
the
COVID-19
indeed
shattered
all
the
plans.
Towards
the
end
of
the
year,
a
few
makers
gradually
started
dropping
updates
of
their
films
to
keep
up
the
excitement
of
the
fans,
which
in
fact
created
a
huge
buzz
on
social
media.
Well,
as
2020
is
nearing
its
end
we
bring
you
Top
5
videos
that
stole
our
hearts
this
year
and

us

In

director

Ravichander.

discussion
about
the
first
single
of
the
film
but
seems
like
the
music
director
has
forgotten
about
it
amid
the
COVID-19
pandemic.
After
incessant
requests,
Anirudh
asks
about
the
requirement
of
the
song,
to
this,
the
actor
says
that
the
song
should
be
a
hit
and
should
rule
the
Tik
Tok
app
(which
was
already
banned
a
few
days
back).
Knowing
about
the
Chinese
app's
ban,
Sivakarthikeyan
pens
a
lyric
with
the
concept
and
asks
Anirudh
to
compose
music
for
the
same.
