Tamil cinema, on the other hand, has seen only select stars like Thalapathy Vijay and Rajinikanth achieve significant traction and box office business in this region. However, Sivakarthikeyan and Sai Pallavi’s ‘Amaran’ shuffled things up a bit with their impressive $1 million haul in the US markets.
