Dhanush’s Film Decent Start Followed by a Dip

Idli Kadai released on October 1, 2025. It had a five-day extended opening weekend. The film opened with good numbers on a mid-week holiday.

On Day 1 (Wednesday), the film earned a strong Rs 11 Crore net in India. Day 2 (Thursday) collections were also good, bringing in approximately Rs 9.75 Crore. This strong start made trade experts hopeful.

However, the film saw a sharp drop on Day 3 (Friday). It collected an estimated Rs 5.6 Crore. This was a sign of the increasing competition.

Idli Kadai Faces Strong Competition

The main reason for the drop in collection is the massive wave of other big releases. Rishab Shetty’s film, Kantara: A Legend Chapter-1, is doing extremely well. It has taken up many screens, especially in the South and in the Hindi markets.

Idli Kadai is a rural family drama. It features a story about a simple man who leaves his village idli shop for a career in the modern hotel industry. The film stars Dhanush, Nithya Menen, and Arun Vijay in key roles.

Despite getting mixed to positive reviews, the film is primarily a success in its main market, Tamil Nadu. The collections from the Telugu and Hindi versions have been lower. This limits the film’s total earnings across the country.

What Lies Ahead for Idli Kadai?

The film’s fifth day will be the last day of the extended holiday weekend. After this, collections might see another major drop on the first Monday. The movie will need a huge push from the family audience in the coming days to maintain its run. The good word-of-mouth in Tamil Nadu can help.

Dhanush fans are hoping the film’s emotional story will draw more people to the theatres. The movie needs to keep collecting steadily to recover its costs and become a box office hit. The final collection of the opening weekend will be very important for the film’s future.
