Vijay's 'Ghilli' comes first when we think of a Tamil film on Kabaddi, and it's the mother of all Kabaddi dramas in Tamil. Even though 'Ghili' featuring Vijay is the Tamil remake of the Telugu film 'Okkadu' featuring Mahesh Babu, the remake version is a better hit than the original version. 'Ghilli' went on to become a huge hit at the box office, and the 2004 Tamil release is once again breaking records as it was re-released in theaters a few weeks ago.

Susienthiran's directorial 'Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu' is set against a rural backdrop, and the film is about a Kabaddi tournament that happens in a village. The 2009 Tamil release had a set of newcomers in the main role, but the film's success transformed them into a popular star. Vishnu Vishal, Soori, and Kishore are the stars who shot to fame with 'Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu' and have now become leading stars in the industry.

'Pattathu Arasan' is an emotional rural drama, and it's about the separation between a family. But director Sarkunam added Kabaddi to the film to make it more engaging. 'Pattathu Arasan' features Atharvaa, Rajkiran, Ashika Ranganath, and Radhika Sarathkumar in the lead roles, and the film was a decent one at the box office.

After 'Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu', director Susienthiran opted to do one more film on Kabaddi, and it's the 2019 Tamil release 'Kennedy Club'. Sasikumar and Bharathiraja played the main roles, and the film is about a women's domestic Kabaddi tournament that picks players for the national team. The sports drama packed with sentiment and a social message was well enjoyed by fans, and it's one of the most successful Kabaddi dramas in Tamil.

'Kalathil Santhipom' features Jiiva and Arulnithi in the main roles, and the film is about two friends who are rivals on the Kabaddi field. Director Rajasekar made the film engaging by packing it with twists and turns, and the 2021 Tamil release was a decent hit. Yuvan Shankar Raja scored the music, while his background score added more strength to the film.
