Soorarai
Pottru,
the
Suriya
starrer
has
earned
the
OTT
blockbuster
status,
just
within
the
first
24
hours
of
its
release.
The
latest
reports
suggest
that
Soorarai
Pottru
will
soon
cross
the
100-Million
views
on
Amazon
Prime
Video.
If
things
go
at
the
same
rate,
the
Sudha
Kongara
directorial
will
cross
the
100
Million
views
mark
within
the
first
weekend
of
its
release.
The
Suriya
starrer
is
said
to
be
the
first
South
Indian
direct-to-OTT
film
to
achieve
this
rare
foot.
According
to
the
latest
reports,
Soorarai
Pottru
has
crossed
over
55
Million
views
within
the
first
24
hours
of
its
release,
which
is
also
a
new
record.
The
Suriya
starrer,
which
was
premiered
on
November
12
at
midnight
as
a
Deepavali
special
release,
has
thus
also
emerged
as
one
of
the
most-loved
Tamil
films
of
recent
times.
Laxmii,
the
recently
released
Akshay
Kumar
starrer,
and
Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
Dil
Bechara
have
crossed
100
and
75
Million
views
respectively,
within
the
first
24
hours
of
its
release.
In
that
case,
Soorarai
Pottru
has
also
emerged
as
the
first
Tamil
film
to
cross
the
50-Million
views
mark
within
the
first
24
hours.
The
Suriya
starrer
has
been
equally
loved
by
both
the
audiences
and
critics.
Soorarai
Pottru
has
been
considered
one
of
the
most
well-made
mainstream
Tamil
films
of
recent
times.

leading
lady

for
their
