Dhanush's memorable 'D25' is 2014's No.1 ...

This year's biggest blockbuster till date, Velai Illa Pattadhaari, enters the 25th day of its run today, after releasing on July 18th. The film has surpassed all expectations and has sustained very well, even after the much-loved Jigarthanda which released last week. From multiplexes to single screens, VIP is still holding court and this speaks a lot about the movie's merit, at a time when films struggle to sustain beyond the first week.

 

Anirudh's superhit music, the racy dialogues peppered with heroism, the natural way in which relationships were portrayed and Dhanush's 'mass hero' turn in the 2nd half are some of the factors behind VIP's stunning success. Of course, the dedication to engineers in the end seems to have done the trick big time with the student community across the state.

 

VIP is Dhanush's biggest hit by far, and sets the bar very high for his next release, Anegan directed by K.V.Anand. According to Behindwoods box-office tracking tools, the film is estimated to have grossed around 6.31 crores in Chennai city till 10th August, and this figure has surpassed all the other films released this year. So 'D25' is 2014's No.1. Way to go ...
