It appears that Pongal in January 2024 will witness several highly anticipated Tamil film releases. Ayalaan, starring Sivakarthikeyan, was the first to announce its arrival during the festive season. Other films gearing up for release around Pongal 2024 include Sundar C’s Aranmanai 4, Arun Vijay’s Vanangaan, and Jayam Ravi’s Siren.
Lal Salaam is produced by Lyca Productions and presented by A Subaskaran. The film will be released in multiple languages, including Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada. The storyline of Lal Salaam revolves around friendship and cricket, with Rajinikanth playing the character Moideen Bhai.
