It's
confirmed!
Valimai
will
be
hitting
the
cinemas
on
Pongal
2022.
Unveiling
the
most
awaited
update,
the
actioner's
producer
Boney
Kapoor
took
to
his
social
media
handle
and
wrote,
"Happy
to
announce
that
#Valimai
will
hit
the
screens
on
Pongal
2022."
He
added
the
viral
hashtags
#ValimaiFromPongal
#ValimaiPongal
#Valimai
to
his
post
and
tagged
the
main
cast
and
crew
of
the
film.
Though
the
release
date
is
yet
to
be
revealed,
rumours
are
rife
that
Valimai
will
be
out
on
January
14.
On
the
other
hand,
the
release
date
has
also
flabbergasted
fans
of
both
Thala
and
Vijay,
as
the
grapevine
suggests
that
the
forthcoming
film
of
Thalapathy,
Beast
might
also
release
coinciding
with
the
special
occasion.
However,
there
is
no
official
word
in
this
regard.
Well,
with
the
speculations
about
the
two
films'
theatrical
clash
on
Pongal
2022
doing
the
rounds
on
social
media,
one
will
have
to
wait
and
watch
to
see
what
unfolds
in
the
days
to
come.
If
the
rumours
turn
out
to
be
true,
the
clash
of
2022
will
mark
their
7th
one
after
Kushi-Unnai
Kodu
Ennai
Tharuven,
Friends-Dheena,
Bhagavathi-Villain,
Pokiri-Aalwar,
Jilla-Veeram
and
Poove
Unakkaga-Kaloori
Vaasal.
On
a
related
note,
Vijay's
previous
venture
Master
was
released
on
Pongal
2020,
and
turned
out
to
be
a
huge
success
at
the
box
office.
Coming
back
to
Valimai,
the
film
written
and
directed
by
H
Vinoth
is
produced
by
Boney
Kapoor
under
his
production
banner
Bayview
Projects
LLP.

J
and

Valimai's
teaser
will
mostly
release
on
Thursday
(September
23).
As
of
Beast,
the
film
is
helmed
by
Kolamavu
Kokila
director
Nelson
Dilipkumar.
Touted
to
be
an
out-and-out
action
entertainer,
the
Vijay-starrer
features
Pooja
Hegde
as
the
leading
lady.
Notably,
the
diva
is
marking
