Amaran is Sivakarthikeyan's latest action drama, inspired by the life of Major Mukund. Sai Pallavi plays the female lead in this film, directed by Rajkumar Periasamy on a large budget. The action drama was also released in Telugu and has won the hearts of many.

Amaran starts with a solid word of mouth in Telugu states

Positive word-of-mouth is strong for Amaran, as seen in the high occupancy in evening shows, with bookings significantly increasing for the evening and night shows. Since it’s the Diwali weekend, Amaran is expected to perform solidly, according to trade experts.

This success can largely be attributed to Sai Pallavi, who has a huge fan following in the Telugu states. Her performance in the film has been widely praised. The story of Amaran is told through her character’s perspective, and her portrayal has deeply resonated with audiences.

Her performance in the last fifteen minutes of the film has been a major talking point on social media. Sai Pallavi plays Major Mukund’s wife, and her on-screen chemistry with Sivakarthikeyan and her portrayal of the role is superbly showcased.

In Tamil Nadu, Amaran has also opened strongly. In Telugu, it’s competing against two other major releases, Lucky Bhaskar and KA, and based on its current performance, Amaran is set to give tough competition this Diwali weekend.

Produced by Kamal Haasan on a grand scale, he mentioned in a press conference that viewers might need "a lot of tissue paper" to watch Amaran. His statement rings true, as Amaran is the kind of film that leaves you with a heavy heart.

Sivakarthikeyan has once again shown he’s a superstar in the making, with his portrayal of Major Mukund standing out as one of his best performances. With pre-release business conducted at a modest rate, Amaran is likely to turn a profit in the Telugu states. Watch this space for more updates on this project.
