Sivakarthikeyan-starrer Ayalaan, which hit theatres on the festive Pongal weekend, is gearing up for its Telugu release on January 26. Just before the film's release, Ayalaan’s team was present at a pre-release event in Hyderabad that was attended by fans and celebrities from the Tollywood industry. The highlight of the event was RX100 actor Kartikeya Gummakonda’s dance performance with Sivakarthikeyan. The Telugu actor was excited and took to the stage to do the hook step to the film’s hit song 'Ayalaa Ayalaa' with Sivakarthikeyan. The song is composed by AR Rahman.

Sharing the now-viral clip, Kartikeya recalled his "memorable" moment with the Ayalaan star. The actor also conveyed his best wishes to the film’s team ahead of the release of the Telugu version of the film tomorrow (January 26).

Ayalaan makes more than Rs 75 crore at the box office

Pongal release winner Ayalaan, which opened to positive reviews, has now raked in approximately Rs 80 crore worldwide. Although its fellow competitor, Dhanush’s Captain Miller, is ahead in numbers, Ayalaan did not disappoint the audience and has captivated young audiences with its fun and entertaining visuals. Thanks to the film’s success, the makers have now green-lighted a sequel to Ayalaan.
