Arvind Awamy and Karthi’s heartwarming film Meiyazhagan is getting so much love on Netflix that it is unbelievable. The film cropped up as a surprise at the box office, taking a jump of almost 200% even after its release on OTT. Now, the verdict from OTT makes it clear that it is winning one view at a time!
Meiyazhagan OTT Verdict
The Tamil drama helmed by C Prem Kumar and produced by Jyothika and Suriya has garnered a successful 1.9 million views in its opening week on Netflix. In fact, it was trending globally on Netflix in the top 10, occupying the seventh spot.
Arvind Swamy and Karthi’s film stayed above Akshay Kumar’s Khel Khel Mein, which entered its third week on Netflix. In fact, the Tamil drama in its debut week surpassed the debut week of many Hindi films that were released on Netflix in 2024.
With a 1.9 million views debut, Meiyazhagan surpassed the opening views of Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, Savi, Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, and Srikanth, all of which had very good word-of-mouth. Considering the South Indian biggies, it stood at an overall number in the list.
