BAIRAVAA, NEAR KATHTHI!

As reported by us yesterday, Vijay's Bairavaa apparently has a running time of 2 hours 44 minutes and 20 seconds. A section of the audience has already started complaining that the length of the film is long even without watching the movie. But we cannot deny the fact that the attention span of the viewers has drastically gone down due to the advent of cell phone usage in the theater hall.

The current generation film buffs are getting used to watching 2 hour 15 minute films and film makers are making it a practice to cut short on the length of the movie to satisfy everyone.

On the other hand, directors who trust their product to the fullest do not mind making even a 3 hour film and have also ended being successful. So the audience who feels 2 hours and 45 minutes is long, should understand that Bairavaa’s success will be decided only by the merit of the product and not by its runtime. Apart from Theri and Puli, Vijay’s films are generally long enough. Here we list down Vijay’s last 10 movies and its runtime.
