Trade analyst Kaushik LM also shared similar numbers on his Twitter and wrote, “#AjithKumar’s #Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu Day1 Chennai City gross is a humongous 1.82 CR👌🔥By far, the new career best city opening for #AK & also the best post-pandemic city opening day. Normal working Thursday release; majority city theaters didn’t have any spl. mrng shows. Hence 2 CR+ ruled out.”

As per a report in BoxOfficeIndia, Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu “will be the first film in Tamil Nadu to breach the 25 crore net mark on the opening day and that’s a great result for the industry.”

Bala had previously tweeted that Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu was “off to a good start in #USA”. In another tweet, mentioned that it “is heading for #AK ‘s Biggest Day 1 opening in #Singapore.” More concrete numbers for the film are awaited.

Indianexpress.com’s Manoj Kumar wrote in his review of the film, “Vinoth goes old school when it comes to setting up the movie; it seems he really wanted to create an urban myth. He begins the story with some promise even as it lacks originality in terms of staging, dialogues or creating hype for the hero’s arrival. After the initial hubbub settles down, it becomes painfully clear that the movie has very little to offer.”
