Fans and film buffs are bound to have a delightful month as several Tamil films, including quite a few much-awaited ones, are all set to hit the screens in September.

Last month, only a few movies were released, unwilling to take on Superstar Rajinikanth’s Jailer (2023) at the box office.

Those films that were originally supposed to be released in August but chose to delay their arrival because of Jailer have now lined up to hit the marquee along with those planned for September.

Some of the much-awaited flicks that are scheduled to hit screens this month are as follows:

Paramporul

Director C Aravind Raj’s Paramporul, which is scheduled to hit screens on 1 September, is among the most expected films to release this month.

The film has raised expectations as it features Sarathkumar, who plays a police inspector, in the lead along with young actor Amithash.

It may be recalled that Sarathkumar’s previous film, Por Thozhil (2023), too had him playing a cop and combining with a young actor.

The plot revolves around the smuggling and selling of ancient sculptures in Tamil Nadu. It is an action entertainer, which, sources say, is bound to thrill audiences.

Paramporul, which also features Kashmira Shah in a prominent role, has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja.
