Collections
As
per
the
initial
trade
reports,
Kaatrin
Mozhi
opened
to
a
fairly
good
response
at
the
Chennai
box
office
and
raked
in
Rs
18
Lakh
on
Day
1.
One
is
likely
to
get
a
clearer
picture
once
the
official
figures
are
revealed.
A
Good
Start
Kaatrin
Mozhi
is
not
a
mass
movie.
It
is
a
simple
yet
effective
comedy
about
the
challenges
faced
by
those
who
come
from
a
middle-class
background.
While
it
is
bound
to
be
a
treat
for
the
family
audiences,
it's
not
really
everyone's
cup
of
tea.
Keeping
in
mind
the
film's
genre
and
limited
reach,
the
collections
are
better
than
expected.
And,
this
bears
testimony
to
Jyothika's
star
power.
The
WOM
Is
Positive
The
consensus
is
that
Kaatrin
Mozhi
is
a
pretty
solid
film
that
can
be
described
as
a
faithful
and
effective
remake.
Jyothika
has
received
praise
for
delivering
a
perfect
performance.
The
critics
have
also
praised
the
screenplay
and
stated
that
it
never
becomes
boring
or
dull.
As
such,
the
WOM
is
healthy.
And,
this
bodes
well
for
Kaatrin
Mozhi.
Is
Thimiru
Pudichavan
A
Problem
For
Kaatrin
Mozhi?
Kaatrin
Mozhi
has
hit
the
screens
alongside
Thimiru
Pudichavan.
However,
the
Vijay
Antony
starrer
is
unlikely
to
affect
it
in
any
way
whatsoever.
Thimiru
Pudichavan
is
a
masala
movie
that
is
likely
to
click
with
the
youngsters.
As
the
target
audiences
are
different,
the
films
are
unlikely
to
create
a
problem
for
each
other.
The
Bottomline
Kaatrin
Mozhi
is
likely
to
remain
the
top
choice
of
the
target
audience
in
the
coming
days.
Given
the
limited
competition,
it
should
be
able
to
end
Week
1
on
a
good
note.
Enough
said!
