Vidaamuyarchi Gets U/A Certification: Ajith Kumar And Trisha Krishnan's Thriller Cleared After Edits

Vidaamuyarchi Receives CBFC U/A Certificate After Edits: The highly anticipated Tamil action thriller Vidaamuyarchi, directed by Magizh Thirumeni and starring Ajith Kumar, Trisha Krishnan, Arjun Sarja, Regina Cassandra, Arav, and Ramya Subramanian, has officially received its Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) approval. The film has been awarded a U/A certificate, signifying that it is suitable for viewers aged 16 and above. Additionally, the movie's runtime is confirmed to be 2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes).

Vidaamuyarchi, produced by Subaskaran Allirajah under the Lyca Productions banner, has been eagerly awaited by fans, particularly due to its intriguing storyline and star-studded cast. The film, which is said to be loosely based on the 1997 Jonathan Mostow-directed thriller Breakdown, follows a couple's journey that transforms into a nightmare. However, the film has experienced a delay in its release, which was initially scheduled for January 2025 during the Pongal season. The exact reasons behind the delay have not been disclosed.

The CBFC's approval of Vidaamuyarchi came with a few minor edits to the film. Some offensive words and non-permissible language were muted or removed in both the audio and subtitles. Additionally, a rude gesture in one scene and the depiction of a character's killing were modified, while brand names associated with intoxicants were removed from the visuals. Despite these edits, the changes do not affect the overall length of the film, and it is expected to maintain its gripping narrative and intense action sequences.

The film's production wrapped up in December 2024 after a brief schedule in Thailand, following the main shoot in Azerbaijan, which began in October 2023. Music for Vidaamuyarchi has been composed by the acclaimed Anirudh Ravichander, with cinematography by Om Prakash ISC and editing by N. B. Srikanth. The film is expected to deliver an action-packed, thrilling experience, showcasing Ajith Kumar in a role that promises to captivate audiences.

While fans are eagerly awaiting further updates on the official release date, Vidaamuyarchi remains one of the most talked-about Tamil films of the year, with much anticipation surrounding its eventual theatrical release.
