The Sivakarthikeyan starrer Velaikkaran directed by Mohan Raja released four days ago on December 22. The film has had a steady 4-day run hitting a peak on Sunday and Christmas day (Yesterday) at the TN box office. The Tamil Nadu gross at the end of the first week is around 30 crores.
The film is apparently drawing the audience in large numbers in all centres. And this is reportedly the biggest opening that Sivakarthikeyan has got to date and let’s hope the film sustains this run.
The fact that Sivakarthikeyan's latest social drama Velaikkaran draws inspiration from a Rajinikanth film of the same name is pretty obvious. But it turns out, there is another aspect of similarity between the movies.
The villain of the new Velaikkaran seems to have been inspired by the old - both work in organizations competing with their own, under disguise, secretly hatching conspiracies to dismantle their enemies from within.
This aspect adds layers to their villainy, and makes the battle with the good that much more interesting. Watch Velaikkaran and find out what exactly we are talking about!
