Vettaiyan: Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan's Blockbuster Reunion Captivates Audiences Across India! 🌟
Vettaiyan, featuring the iconic duo Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan, opened in theatres on October 10. The film made a powerful debut at the box office, grossing an impressive ₹30 crore across India, as reported by Sacnilk. The primary contribution came from its Tamil screenings, which alone brought in ₹26.15 crore. In addition, the Telugu shows earned ₹3.2 crore, while the Hindi and Kannada shows garnered ₹60 lakh and ₹50 lakh, respectively, on day one. The overall occupancy rate for Tamil shows was a notable 59.43% on its opening day.
Directed by TJ Gnanavel, Vettaiyan boasts a stellar cast, including Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Manju Warrier, Ritika Singh, Dushara Vijayan, and VJ Rakshan. This film marks a highly anticipated reunion for Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan, who last appeared together in the 1991 classic Hum.
During the audio launch event of Vettaiyan, Rajinikanth reminisced about Amitabh Bachchan's resilience during a financial crisis. He shared how Amitabh had to sell his Juhu home and other Mumbai properties, working tirelessly for 18 hours a day to clear his debts. Rajinikanth praised Bachchan's determination, stating, “He did anything and everything... For three years, despite having many health issues, he worked for 18 hours a day and cleared all his dues. Not just that he bought back the old house, he bought a total of three houses in that same lane. That's Amitabh Bachchan! He is 82 now and still works for 10 hours a day.” 🌟💪
In a review by NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee rated Vettaiyan 2.5 out of 5 stars, noting that, “Orbiting within and around the formulaic, writer-director TJ Gnanavel assembles a few novel thematic elements and gives them a reasonable shot in Vettaiyan. The outcome may be a tad erratic in terms of pace and emphasis, but overall, what the film pieces together is not all forgettable.” 🎥✨
