Directed by H Vinoth and produced by Boney Kapoor, the action-thriller is centred on a cop (Ajith) who is in pursuit of a murderous biker gang.

Valimai will have an uninterrupted run in cinemas for the next two weeks as no other major Tamil film is being released in this period.

Last week, In an interview with the entertainment site IndiaGlitz, Kapoor stated that his film had registered a ‘very big’ opening.

“It is definitely very big. I don’t know the exact numbers but from what I’ve heard from my exhibitors and distributors, the number is very big. It is perhaps the biggest opening for any film in the Tamil industry,” Kapoor said.

Kapoor made his maiden foray into Tamil cinema with Ajith Kumar’s Nerkonda Paarvai (2019), a remake of the Hindi drama Pink (2016). Valimai marks their second collaboration. The duo has also confirmed that they will be reuniting for a third project very soon.
