Dhanush thanks for overwhelming response for Idli Kadai

Dhanush is ecstatic about the love that is pouring in for his most recent family performer, Idli Kadai, who has emotionally connected with audiences. The film, which was released on October 1st, has already made an astounding Rs 21 crore in just two days, demonstrating its strong appeal to audiences nationwide.

The actor-director, known for his grounded charm and cinematic honesty, couldn’t contain his gratitude. Taking to Instagram, Dhanush shared a heartfelt message:

“Thank you all for the overwhelming love and affection towards our Idli Kadai Blessed. Grateful.”
His post was met with a wave of warm replies from fans who’ve laughed, cried, and reminisced through the film’s moving story.

The Tamil version of the movie had a healthy 59.87% occupancy rate on its second day. Over 70% of people attended the afternoon shows, which were followed closely by the evening performances. Even late-night screenings continued to draw large crowds, demonstrating the effectiveness of word-of-mouth advertising.

Idli Kadai, which was directed by Dhanush himself, is a very personal endeavour rather than merely another box office hit. It tells a heartwarming tale of love, family, and second chances. Shalini Pandey co-stars with him, and fans adore their new on-screen chemistry.

Nithya Menen, Arun Vijay, Prakash Raj, Sathyaraj, Raj Kiran, Parthiban, Brigida Saga, and Ashok Selvan are among the film's powerful cast members, all of whom contribute emotional depth to the narrative.

The film, which he and Aakash Baskaran produced under his own company Wunderbar Films, has received accolades for both its narrative and its moving soundtrack composed by GV Prakash Kumar. The emotional experience is completed by Kiran Koushik's images and Prasanna GK's flawless editing.

Dhanush demonstrates once more with Idli Kadai that heartfelt storytelling is the best kind of filmmaking. Audiences are obviously paying attention and enjoying every second of it.
