Vettaiyan Opens Strongly, Earns ₹25 Crore on Day 1

The film 'Vettaiyan', featuring superstars Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan, opened strongly at the box office, earning over ₹25 crore in India on its first day. Despite mixed reviews, it is expected to perform well during the Dussehra festive season, with strong overseas earnings reported in North America. Directed by TJ Gnanavel, the movie blends action and social commentary, with Rajinikanth playing a cop involved in encounter killings. Fahadh Faasil's performance has been particularly praised, earning accolades from Rajinikanth himself for his natural acting skills. The film's initial success stems from its ensemble cast and high-octane action scenes, supported by Anirudh Ravichander's music.
