Ghilli (/ɡɪllɪ/ transl. Gutsy) is a 2004 Indian Tamil-language sports action film[9] directed by Dharani and produced by A. M. Rathnam. It is a remake of the Telugu film Okkadu (2003), written and directed by Gunasekhar, with few changes made to the story. The film stars Vijay in the lead role, alongside Trisha, Prakash Raj, Ashish Vidyarthi, Dhamu, Mayilsamy, Janaki Sabesh, Nancy Jennifer, Nagendra Prasad, Ponnambalam and Pandu. The film is about a Kabaddi player, who goes to Madurai to participate in an exhibition match, but instead rescues a woman from a gang leader, who wants to marry her.
The soundtrack album and score were composed by Vidyasagar, while cinematography was handled by Gopinath and editing by V. T. Vijayan and B. Lenin. The dialogues for the film were written by Bharathan. The film was released on 16 April 2004 to positive reviews from critics. The film ran for more than 200 days at the box office and emerged as the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2004. Ghilli is considered to be one of the best films in Vijay's career, starting his acting trend from romance to action.[10][5]
A re-mastered version in 4K was re-released worldwide in theatres on 20 April 2024 and received huge response among the audience.[11] It has grossed around ₹26.5–50 crore during its re-release, becoming the highest grossing re-release in Indian cinema overtaking Titanic.[12][4] This record was later broken by Hindi film Tumbbad in September 2024.[c]
