Vettaiyan starring Rajinikanth in the lead has opened to positive reactions from the early set of audience. The cop drama high on social message is written and directed by TJ Gnanavel.

🔥🔥#Vettaiyan hits the right notes. A well-made film. The 2nd half curse is broken.

It speaks about a very important social issue that I've often raised concerns about, even as recently as last month in #Tamilnadu!

Go watch! Pucca Thalaivar padam! Kudos @tjgnan!#Rajinikanth https://t.co/G3a6pYSg96 pic.twitter.com/OZBKIBcEmF
