Despite running into neck deep trouble, 'Kaththi' valiantly fought back all problems and crossed hurdles to release on the day of festival of lights. The movie got a very elaborate number of screens abroad and also in states like Kerala and Karnataka, while all screens were choked with booked seats on the first day for all shows in Tamil Nadu. Director AR Murugadoss is especially happy with the unanimously lauded response from audience that gathered a whooping 23.8 crores of collection on the first of its release. And now there is news that post the busy weekend, the crew is meeting to celebrate their success.

The success meet for 'Kaththi' is expected to be held in Coimbatore today at Hindustan College and the event will have all the cast and crew taking part in raising a toast to their victory, including director himself and the lead actor Vijay. After quite a considerable gap in the entertainment arena, 'Kaththi' released as a pressing story to highlight the importance and plight of farmers today. The film had Vijay playing double role in the lead, Samantha as the heroine and Neil Nithin Mukesh playing the villain.
