Recently Keerthy Suresh's Penguin released on a popular OTT platform and this is the first major Telugu-Tamil film that has got a direct OTT release. Directed by debut director Eashvar Karthic, this film is being loved by the fans. But netizens have taken to the internet and are claiming that the climax of the film has an uncanny resemblance to the film Hit which released in theatres just before the lockdown, in February. Take a look at fans' tweets here. 

The film Hit was directed by debutant director Dr. Sailesh Kolanu and it starred Vishwak as a cop. Hit also was a film with a lot of ups and downs in its plot. As per reports, Penguin's protagonist was also very worried and upset like the protagonist of Hit. It was also reported that like HitPenguin's antagonist also has a depraved mindset in the climax. The only difference in the films was that Hit was a film about a cop and Penguin was a film about the struggles of a mother and her emotional decisions. This is what has made the fans point out the strong similarities between the climax moments of the two movies.
