Rajinikanth’s highly anticipated film Vettaiyan, directed by T.G. Gnanvel, is set for a grand worldwide release tomorrow. With its trailer and songs composed by Anirudh Ravichander creating significant buzz, the film has generated high expectations among fans and industry insiders alike. Both theatrical and non-theatrical business deals have been strong, positioning the film well ahead of its release.
Vettaiyan was made on a substantial budget of 300 crores, with Rajinikanth reportedly earning a remarkable 125 crores for his role. The film’s producer is already in table profits, thanks to lucrative pre-release deals. However, Lyca Productions, which is backing the film, faces a crucial moment, especially after their previous venture, Indian 2, failed to perform at the box office. For the production house, Vettaiyan must deliver a big hit.
The film is also likely to benefit from the ongoing Dussehra holidays, which could boost box office collections over the weekend. To be deemed a hit, Vettaiyan needs to gross more than 300 crores globally. While advance bookings haven’t been as strong as expected, the film’s ultimate performance will largely depend on the audience’s response after its opening day.
