Ajith Kumar's 'Vidaamuyarchi' Nears ₹50 Crore Mark Despite Sharp Box Office Drop

The Tamil action thriller, an adaptation of the 1997 film 'Breakdown,' saw a strong opening but faced a significant decline in earnings over its first three days.

Vidaamuyarchi, starring Ajith Kumar and Trisha Krishnan, opened with ₹26 crore on its first day in India but experienced a sharp 65% drop on day two, earning ₹8.75 crore.
The film's total Indian box office collection reached approximately ₹46.77 crore net by its third day, with worldwide earnings crossing ₹66 crore in two days.
Directed by Magizh Thirumeni, the movie is a Tamil adaptation of the 1997 American film 'Breakdown,' focusing on a man's mission to rescue his kidnapped wife in Azerbaijan.
Critics and audiences have given mixed reviews, with praise for Ajith Kumar's performance and the film's intense narrative, though some found the pacing slow.
Produced on a reported budget of ₹180-200 crore, the film's future box office performance will be crucial to its financial success.
