Stream Vidaamuyarchi on OTT

Ajith’s Vidaamuyarchi was a disappointing fare at the box-office and failed to make the impact it promised. Touted to be an engaging action thriller, the film couldn’t capture audience’s attention in theatres and many criticised the film for its pacing and screenplay.

The film was released earlier this month on 6th February and shockingly it will make its OTT debut within than 4 weeks of theatrical release. This is due to the high amount paid by Netflix and the movie’s poor run at the box office. The film has already ended its run with around 145 Cr gross worldwide.

Netflix made an official announcement a while ago regarding the film’s digital premiere. It will be released on 3rd March in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada and Hindi. Directed by Magizh Thirumeni Vidaamuyarchi was released in theatres on February 6, 2025. It is a remake of the 1997 American film Breakdown.

Produced by Lyca Productions, Vidaamuyarchi also starred Trisha, Arjun Sarja, Regina Cassandra, and Aarav in key roles. Anirudh composed the music for this action thriller which featured some stylish power-packed chases and action sequences shot on a grand scale.

The Netizens said that no one would say that cricket is not great, but do Chiranjeevi and Sukumar need to show up on TV to get publicity? Doesn’t anyone know about them?

Daaku Maharaaj is Not Vikram — It’s More Like Petta

Daaku Maharaaj is receiving a superb response after its OTT arrival on Netflix. Before the film’s release itself, the makers officially said that they were trying to do a Vikram style of film with balakrishna. But if we observe, Daaku Maharaaj is Not Vikram — It’s More Like Petta.

Daaku Maharaaj: Decent in Theaters – Excellent in OTT

Directed by Bobby, the film was released in theaters this Sankranthi, and it opened well and emerged as a decent box office success but not big as the trade and the team expected initially.
On last Friday, the film was released on Netflix and is receiving excellent response.

Daaku Maharaaj gets compared with films like Petta and Vikram

The interesting thing is, most of the OTT viewers say that the film is not like Vikram, and it is a much similar range to Petta Style. Rajini and Karthik Subbaraj’s Petta comprises massive elevations in the 1st half with many large fan moments, but in the second half’s flashback it runs on usual story and ends up with a regular climax.

The same can be said with Daaku Maharaaj as well. The 1st half has a high feel with continuous fan moments, but the 2nd half goes with an ordinary revenge story with only a few highs. That is why people are saying Daaku Maharaaj is Not Vikram — It’s More Like Petta.

Vikram is a different one, as the screenplay was solid in both halves. Moreover, the second half of the film is bigger than the 1st half, with a terrific climax. Deku Maharaaj didn’t go there, but it is much similar to Petta as per audiences opinion.

Daaku Maharaaj – Netflix Trailer

Meanwhile, Daaku Maharaaj is getting so much of appreciations from other languages audiences too on Netflix, and it is trending top in many countries.

Dragon amd NEEK are the latest Tamil films that have been released in theaters in competition. Nilavuku Enmel Ennadi Kobam was directed by Dhanush and the other movie was directed by Ashwath Marimutthu.

Dragon Dominates Dhanush’s NEEK at the Box Office

Pradeep Ranganathan’s Dragon had an excellent 1st weekend with a jump in collections on every day. In Tamil Nadu, the film opened with 5.75 Cr gross, and on Day 2 it went up to 9 Cr. On Day 3, the film gathered around 10 Cr gross, which takes the opening weekend’s gross to 25 Cr Gross. Dragon and NEEK 1st Weekend Worldwide Box Office Collections are out, and the former dominated Dhanush’s film.

Pradeep Ranganathan Scores His Second Hit in Telugu

Overseas collections too came good for Return of the Dragon (Telugu Title), as the film collected around 1.7M for weekend. In Telugu States, the film has collected more than 6 Cr gross. So, the overall worldwide gross of the film will be around 50 Cr for its 1st weekend. Today’s bookings also look strong, and the trade expects the film to continue the strong momentum at the box office.

NEEK had a disappointing 1st weekend in all areas. In Tamil Nadu, the movie collected around 4.5 Cr gross Worldwide, and the film has collected in the range of 8-8.5 Cr, which is a very disappointing number. Even though the film had decent reviews, it got hit by Dragon storm.

Dragon Telugu version rocking in America

Many films of Tier 2 Actors from Tollywood struggle to put good numbers in the US market. But now, the Telugu dubbed version of Dragon released as Return of the Dragon is rocking in the US along with its Tamil version. Pradeep Ranganathan is not yet a big star alike Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, and Vijay to pull off this feat.

Dragon is also not a big-budget film to attract the audience at this level. For 2 Days, the film has managed to collect $421,792. From this, US numbers are $371,751 and Canada’s are $50,221. Tamil version contributed $281,866 and Telugu Version supplied $139,926.

Dragon is on track to do more than $1 Million which is very huge for a medium-range Tamil film. Few of the Tamil Actors struggle to go past $1 Million in the US market, but Dragon has managed to establish a big record for Pradeep Ranganathan. Telugu Version’s contribution is helping the film a lot and is also expected to do $400K range in the full run.

The film also looks to gross more than 100 crores worldwide and this will be a magnificent achievement for Pradeep Ranganathan with just his second film as an Actor. Now, all eyes are on his upcoming film, LIK (Love Insurance Kompany) directed by Vignesh Shivan, which also happens to be a youthful entertainer. He has already emerged as a big star in Kollywood and with this film, it will go even further.

Vidaamuyarchi: Bigger Flop Than Valimai

Vidaamuyarchi: Bigger Flop Than Valimai

Vidaamuyarchi is the latest film of Tamil star hero Ajith Kumar. The film was released in theaters worldwide on February 6, 2025. Sadly, it failed to match the expectations of fans and became a big failure at the box office. The biggest shocking thing is Vidaamuyarchi is a bigger flop than Valimai.

Valimai is the recent big failure for Ajith. Directed by H Vinoth, the film collected around 155 Cr gross worldwide, and Ajith’s latest film, Vidaamuyarchi, ended up as a bigger flop than Valimai, as it even struggled to go past the 150 Cr mark and finished its theatrical run with around 145 Cr gross worldwide.

If we observe the recent films from Ajith Kumar, they are not regular commercial films and offer more on action and crime. They were not presented in the regular commercial way or engaging way, which resulted in both films becoming big failures. Fans felt very sad that Ajith Kumar’s Vidaamuyarchi became such a colossal failure at the box office.

Ajith needs to make a Strong Comeback

This weekend, Vidaamuyarchi failed to put up any numbers because Dragon ruled the box office, followed by Dhanush’s NEEK. For a star like Ajith, a film ending up with less than 150 Cr is definitely a bad sign, and it also shows his weakness at the box office as a star compared to other competitors.

Ajith needs to make a strong comeback. The positive sign is there are so many expectations on his upcoming film, Good Bad Ugly. The film must join Ajith in the 300 Cr club and expand his market.
