The Small house fly (Naan EE) has taken edge over Billa2....
From this friday (27th), Naan EE shifted to big screens in place of Billa 2...
Abirami complex - Naan EE shifted to Abirami 7 star with 4 shows & Billa 2 pulled down to Shree Annai Abirami with 3 shows only...
Sangam complex - Naan EE shifted Padmam to Sangam... Billa 2 not shown for booking in Sangam complex from 27th....
Vettri theatres - 2 shows each for Naan EE & Billa 2.....

This is not a fair comment. I have noticed that Ajith movie producers wait for so long time to get their movie released solo. I have not seen in the last 5 - 6 years any of Ajith movies releasing alongwith other movies. Ajith's movie releases once in a year or once in one and half years. So the producers wait long time till they get the right time for solo release. Example is they could have released against Saguni which they did not do fearing loss at the opening. Nobody stopped Ajith's movies to be released during Deepavali or Pongal where other movies too get released. But the producers do not do so and it is not correct to claim that others are fearing for Ajith's movies. It is for Ajith's movie producers to come out with the reasons for planning solo release for his movies.Quote:

2.Velayutham
Cast: Vijay, Genelia, Hansika Motwani, Saranya Mohan, Santhanam
Direction: Jeyam Raja
Music: Vijay Antony
Production: Aascar Films
Velayudham might be the remake of the Hindi film Azad, but that’s exactly what his fans asked for. There is Vijay in all his glory, fights, comedy, sentiment and songs. What more could a die-hard Vijay fan ask for.
Trade Talk:
Though it fell short of making as good advance collections as 7aum Arivu, Velayudham was not quite far behind.
Public Talk:
Velayudham might just be the surprise winner for Diwali what with Vijay delivering what his fans expect out of him.
No. Days Completed: 5
No. Shows in Chennai over this weekend: 492
Average Theatre Occupancy over this weekend: 90%
Collection over this weekend in Chennai: Rs. 11,701,270
Total collections in Chennai: Rs. 1.95 Crore
Verdict: Very Good Opening

We could interpret the data in to two ways either the total collection is lower or opening weekend collection is higher as compare with his counter parts. For example, comparing Mankatha Vs 7am aarivu etc. As someone said, it is due to the fact that his fan base, mainly young adults. On the other hand, he fails to attract general audience. That is very evident from the 2nd and 3rd week of movie collection. It could be possible that the there is a poor marketing initiatives or promotion from producer or distributor or the content of the movie or poor word of mouth. That’s being said, producers and distributors use different business model/strategy when they release Ajith’s movies. They have understood risk and reward properly. So the opening weekend is where the reward lies. AASCAR is very shrewd and he exhibited the movie in maximum number of theatres in Chennai, probably in TN.

The prequel to the blockbuster Billa, Billa 2 has had everything going for it. An ensemble star cast and director Chakri Toleti at the helm of affairs, the movie has had a record opening with tickets having been sold out as soon as they were open for sale online.

Naan EE replaces Billa 2 from all bigger screens @ Chennai....
Rajamouli's Ee makes a historic comeback
After 3 weeks at the Tamil Nadu box-office, Naan Ee is just getting stronger and stronger. This Rajamouli film opened in more than 200 screens and continues to run in more than 180 screens even in the 4th week.
In its 4th week, lot of multiplexes in Chennai like Sangam, Abirami and Sathyam are shifting Naan Ee back to the bigger screens. Single screens like Kasi, Idreams and AVM have also accommodated Naan Ee again.
Such a comeback hasn't been seen in recent times and despite the fact that Naan Ee is a dubbed movie, the masses have just lapped up what they saw. The fantastic VFX and CGI have contributed to this dream end result. Looks like, the Ee will continue to buzz for many more weeks.
