Dragon release date pushed due to Vidaamuyarchi, Will clash with Neek
Following the rom-com fantasy Oh My Kadavulae (2020), writer, director Ashwath Marimuthu was gearing up for another Valentine’s day release this year with Dragon. Over the weekend, Ashwath Marimuthu took to his official X page to announce that the Dragon release date is February 21, 2025, and that his film’s release is pushed to avoid a box-office clash with Ajith’s Vidaamuyarchi.
After production and other delays, Vidaamuyarchi is finally releasing on February 6, 2025. The Ajith starrer’s release date has caused multiple smaller films to re-shuffle their release plans in Tamil cinema. The domino effect of Vidaamuyarchi release date being finalized at the last minute, has now caused a box-office clash between Dragon and Nilavuku En mel Ennadi Kobam (Neek) directed by Dhanush.

Leaving the rest to audience 🤗 “
