note
at

With
record
number
of
screens
on
its
opening

Villain
started
off
its

in
a
grand
manner.

the
finest
performances
of

been
tagged
as
an
emotional

have
struck
the
right
chords
with
the
family

In

First
Weekend
(3
Days)
Kerala
Collections
The
first
weekend
was
indeed
a
good
one
for
the
movie.
Certain
reports
suggest
that
Villain
has
crossed
the
10-Crore
mark
from
its
3
days
of
run
at
the
Kerala
box
office.
Going
by
the
collection
report,
it
has
to
be
assumed
that
the
mixed
reports
have
seldom
affected
the
movie.

The
Kochi
Multiplexes
The
first
weekend
was
a
prosperous
one
for
Villain

where
it
got
a
grand
