Kanguva Disaster Trends Post 'Real Reviews', Vijay Fans Declare GOAT As 2024's Highest Tamil Grosser

Kanguva: The Suriya starrer hit the big screens on November 14. The film also marks the Tamil debut of Bobby Deol and Disha Patani. After the initial positive reviews, social media users shared their criticism of the movie. This has given a reason for Thalapathy Vijay fans to celebrate as his film Greatest of All Times (GOAT) remains the highest-grossing Tamil movie of the year.

Kaguva ‘real reviews’ plague initial positive word-of-mouth

First-day first shows of Kanguva began as early as 7 am in some cities. As a result, fans of Suriya rushed to the big screens and shared positive word of mouth for the movie online. However, as the day progressed a less biased opinion prevailed on social media.

On X users shared the flaws of the Suriya starrer and criticised it for its predictable story, poor VFX and badly written plot. However, the performances of the lead actors continued to garner praise. Soon, the ‘Kanguva disaster’ started trending rapidly on X (formerly Twitter).

Thalapathy Vijay fans find solace in Kanguva ‘disaster’ trend 

While the Kollywood industry is known for its unity and camaraderie, its fans seem very much divided. The release of a Tamil biggie Kanguva, commenced a fan war between Vijay and Suriya followers. The former alleged that Thalapathy Vijay's GOAT will sustain its position as the highest grossing Tamil film of the year with Rs 224.99 crore in India collections.

Suriya fans are confident that Kanguva can easily surpass the collection. Interestingly, both films span through different time zones and feature the lead actors in a double role.
