2019 has seen numerous films released in theatres with only a few performing well at the box office with the rest of the season till date turning out to be generally poor. Likewise, last month has seen a dry spell at the Tamil Nadu box office with no big releases and has been declared to be a disaster according to Rohini Silver Screens’ Executive Director, Nikilesh Surya, who went on to add saying he is now looking forward to ‘Thala’ Ajith’s upcoming film, Nerkonda Paarvai, to once again kickstart the game.

Nerkonda Paarvai starring Ajith in the lead role has been directed by H. Vinoth under Boney Kapoor’s Bayview Projects LLP banner and was announced to hit screens on August 10 with a single track composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja released last week.
