Ajith Kumar’s Thriller Fails to Sustain Momentum
Ajith Kumar’s much-anticipated film Vidaamuyarchi, directed by Magizh Thirumeni, is witnessing a steep decline in box office earnings. Once expected to be a major blockbuster, the film has now slowed to minimal figures, collecting just ₹7 lakh on day 19 of its theatrical run.
Box Office Performance So Far

Despite a strong opening, the film’s daily earnings fell below ₹1 crore in its second week, with:
- Day 17: ₹15 lakh
- Day 18: ₹13 lakh
- Day 19: ₹7 lakh
The Telugu version failed to perform, collecting only ₹2 crore in total, with its highest single-day collection being ₹50 lakh on opening day before dropping significantly.
What Went Wrong?
Critics and audiences have cited pacing issues and predictable storytelling as major drawbacks. Our official review rated Vidaamuyarchi 2.5/5 stars, stating that while the first half was slow and repetitive, the second half, despite some intriguing moments, was let down by an early plot revelation. The climax felt rushed, making the thriller less engaging than expected.
Can Vidaamuyarchi Recover?
With stiff competition from newer releases, Vidaamuyarchi faces an uphill battle to sustain its box office run. While Ajith Kumar’s star power generated early buzz, the film’s underwhelming reception has limited its staying power.
