Vijay has a fan base strong enough to keep the theaters occupied for a good number of days in the first week. And for a decent movie with Vijay in it, even the family audience will come to the theater, no matter what...just like in Kerala and Karnataka. A release on the 15th would have meant a good 4 day weekend...however, let's just hope the movie does get a release soon and recovers whatever money it can so all stakeholders can at least break even. More the delay ..more chances of the excitement and buzz getting lesser.
