The final countdown has begun as Dhanush and Nithya Menen are all set to arrive with their family drama, Idli Kadai, tomorrow. It is witnessing decent trends in advance booking and may clock the 8th biggest opening for a Tamil film in 2025. Scroll below for the day 1 box office prediction!
Idli Kadai is a word-of-mouth dependent affair!
Dhanush arrived on the big screens earlier this year with Kuberaa. The expectations were sky high, which helped it make a thunderous opening. Unfortunately, the reviews were mixed, which led to a crash.
Considering the genre, Idli Kadai is more dependent on the initial word-of-mouth. If the reviews are positive, only sky is the limit as there’s no prominent competition at the ticket windows.
