Tinu Pappachan’s ‘Chaver’ Stares at Box-Office Clash with Mammootty’s ‘Kannur Squad’?

‘Chaver’ stands as one of the most highly anticipated films in Mollywood, directed by the renowned filmmaker Tinu Pappachan. This political-action thriller boasts a star-studded cast including Kunchacko Boban, Arjun Ashokan, and Antony Varghese, and it’s poised for release this month.

Initial reports indicated that ‘Chaver’ was scheduled to hit the screens on the 21st of September. However, recent sources within the Kerala Exhibitors community suggest a potential delay, with the new release date possibly being pushed to the 28th of September.

Although there hasn’t been an official confirmation regarding the release date, it appears that if ‘Chaver’ does indeed premiere on the 28th of September, it will find itself in a box-office showdown with Mammootty’s high-budget investigation thriller, ‘Kannur Squad.’

Reports suggest that the teams behind both films are keen to avoid a clash and are likely to resolve the release scheduling conflict soon. In the meantime, fans can look forward to the imminent release of the ‘Chaver’ trailer, which is set to reach cinephiles in the coming days.

Notably, the screenplay for ‘Chaver’ has been penned by the esteemed actor and director Joy Mathew. This film marks Tinu Pappachan’s third directorial venture following the success of his previous films, ‘Swathanthryam Ardharathriyil’ and ‘Ajagajantharam.’ Stay tuned for further updates on this exciting clash of cinematic titans.
