Rocking
In
Chennai
Namma
Veettu
Pillai
is
doing
reasonably
well
at
the
Chennai
box
office.
Its
three-day
gross
is
likely
to
be
around
Rs
1.98
crore,
which
many
feel
is
a
solid
figure.
The
Pandiraj-directed
movie
has,
however,
proved
to
be
no
match
for
Ajith
Kumar's
rural-entertainer
Viswasam,
which
grossed
around
Rs
3
crore
in
three
days.
A
Hit
With
The
Masses
Namma
Veettu
Pillai
has
done
exceptionally
well
in
the
B
and
C
centres
due
to
its
family-centric
theme
and
rural
setting,
which
proves
that
Sivakarthikeyan
has
the
support
of
the
masses.
Sivakarthikeyan
Bounces
Back
Last
year,
Sivakarthikeyan
suffered
a
big
setback
when
Seema
Raja
underperformed
at
the
box
office
while
receiving
mixed
reviews.
His
next
major
release
Mr
Local,
featuring
'Lady
Superstar'
Nayanthara
as
the
leading
lady,
too
bombed
at
the
ticket
window.
With
Namma
Veettu
Pillai,
he
seems
to
be
on
the
verge
of
getting
a
clean
hit.
The
Road
Ahead...
Namma
Veettu
Pillai
is
likely
to
witness
a
drop
in
collections
today
(September
30)
as
it
is
the
'First
Monday'.
However,
as
the
WOM
is
decent,
the
dip
might
not
be
as
steep
as
expected.
Namma
Veettu
Pillai
might,
however,
run
into
some
trouble
once
the
Telugu
biggie
Sye
Raa
arrives
in
theatres
on
Wednesday
(October
2).
Either
way,
the
next
few
days
are
crucial
for
the
movie.

did
you

Veettu
Pillai?
