Check the told collection of ‘Vettaiyan’ and how it performed in theatres on the fifth day. 

Vettaiyan Box Office Collection Day 5:

According to the website Sacnilk, ‘Vettaiyan’ collected Rs 5.25 crore on day 5 (Monday) as per early estimates. It is a significant fall in numbers as the movie collected Rs 22.3 crore on day 4. Its total collection in India now stands at Rs 110 crore. 

The movie also stars Amitabh Bachchan in the pivotal role and the two legendary actors worked together after 33 years. In an interview, director TJ Gnanavel talked about his decision to cast them together. He said, “Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan were cast together, purely because the story demanded it. When I approached Fahadh Faasil and Rana Dauggubati they asked me why they were required in the film when two legends are already there in it, to which I said the story needs these actors. This is a multi starrer. Casting all these actors isn’t for business purpose, but it’s done for the story. “

While speaking to 123 Telugu, Gnanavel talked about the expectations audiences have for ‘Vettaiyan’. He shared, “After Jailer’s massive success, the expectations on Rajini sir have increased a lot. Vettaiyan will have songs and fights as well. But I didn’t deviate from what I wanted to convey. We have seen films about encounter specialists before, but we have never seen their background stories. Vettaiyan throws light on their thinking process.”

The movie has a talented ensemble of stars including Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Manju Warrier, Ritika Singh, Dushara Vijayan and Abhirami in the pivotal roles.
