From its dubbed Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam versions has scored around Rs 3.95 crores in India and raised its opening day total collection to Rs 31.70 crores including all the versions.
As per the current trend, Vettaiyan is expected to remain strong throughout the 4-days extended weekend. The Hindi version may get affected due to the release of Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video and Jigra on Friday.
Directed by TJ Gnanavel, the film also features an ensemble cast with Manju Warrier, Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Ritika Singh, and Amitabh Bachchan, who makes his Tamil debut.
