Directed by Chimbu Deven the movie had Hansika Motwane and Shruti Haasan the movies trailer took everybody by storm but the film failed to appeal. Made on budget of Rs 118 Crore the film also put the producers and its lead actors in IT soup!

KOCHADAIIYAAN (2014) Rs 125 crore

Directed by Rajinikanth's younger daughter Soundarya, KOCHADAIIYAAN was made in 3-D staring Rajinikanth and Deepika Padukone.

I (2014) Rs 100 crore

South Superstar Vikram and Amy Jackson starrer I directed by Shanker was indeed an exceptional romantic thriller made in Tamil. V. Srinivas Mohans excellent visual effects took the audience by their seats and the movie proved a big hit!
