On its first day alone, the film earned nearly ₹10 crore from just the morning and afternoon screenings, showcasing its strong commercial potential.
Despite its box office triumph, Vidaamuyarchi has garnered mixed feedback from viewers. While many have praised the storyline and its unexpected plot twists, some critics have pointed out the film’s slow pacing as a drawback. Ajith Kumar’s performance, which is more subdued compared to his previous roles, has received accolades, but fans who were expecting high-energy moments may find themselves somewhat disappointed.
The film’s technical aspects have also been a topic of discussion, with Om Prakash’s cinematography and Anirudh Ravichander’s music being highlighted. While the music has been described as functional and fitting for the film, it has not been deemed particularly outstanding, leaving some audiences wanting more in that department.
As the film continues to perform well at the box office, it will be interesting to see how it fares in the coming days. Will Vidaamuyarchi emerge as one of the highest-grossing films of the year, or will it face stiff competition from other releases? Only time will tell.
