Faring well in the list of one of the most anticipated movies of the year, 'Yaan' unfortunately failed to meet audience's expectations of it. The movie strategically released on the first day of a long weekend and had critics finding patches in the movie that should have been dealt with more logic than mere imagination. However, this has not stopped 'Yaan' from becoming a box office hit. The film has grossed 2.77 crores in its opening day alone. And today, as its second day on screens, it has all the bookings full; family audience have headed to watch the film in hoards. This success is mainly attributed to the fact that it is holiday season and families spend time on the movie along with their loved ones.

'Yaan' stars Jiiva and Thulasi Nair in the lead and is the directorial debut for cinematographer Ravi K Chandran. The film is critiqued to have scenes that require more practical logic. Some even wrote that this is purely for the ones that do not reason out what they watch. However, the film certainly makes for a wonderful visual experience, as is lauded.
