Bison plot

Set in the 1990s rural Tamil Nadu, the sports drama is about Kittayya (Dhruv Vikram), a young man from a marginalised caste who dreams of becoming a national kabaddi player but is constantly challenged by India's rigid caste system. It shows how he struggles for identity and fights social discrimination to become a successful player.

Bison box office

The lifetime box office collection for Bison Kaalamaadan is reportedly Rs 47.1 crore net in India and Rs 65.37 crore worldwide.

An excerpt from the Outlook India review of Bison read: "Bison asks an uncomfortable question — how many Kittaan’s stories are still unlived because of the weight of their surnames? Selvaraj refuses to romanticize their struggle or beautify their pain. He treats it as daily reality — neither tragedy nor spectacle, just existence."
