The dry spell at Box office continues in Kollywood with the release of small / lesser known films every week. Despite few films managing to get decent to good reviews, these movies however have not been able to bring in audience to the theatres in large numbers. 

This week saw a release of about 8 Tamil films in Kollywood. Except for Bharath's cop drama 'Kaalidas' and Suseenthiran's sports drama 'Champion' other films failed to impress the critics and audience. Other language films have dominated the Chennai Box Office for the weekend December 13 - 15. Dwayne Johnson's Jumanji: The Next Level, Venkatesh - Naga Chaitnaya starrer Venky Mama have bagged the first two spots.
