Kamal Haasan's Vikram is one of the biggest hits of this year and it has already become the highest-grossing film in Tamil Nadu, pushing KGF 2 to the second place. Vikram which released in theatres on June 3, opened to an overwhelming response from the audiences and critics and the film is continuing its exceptionally great performance even two weeks after its release. The momentum is expected to continue for the next few days as well. The film has already collected over 300 crores at the global box office, thereby becoming Kamal Haasan's biggest ever career hit.
Owing to the success of the film, Kamal Haasan gifted a luxurious Lexus car to its director, Lokesh Kanagaraj and presented a Rolex watch to Suriya who played a special cameo in the film. Kamal also presented Apache bikes to all the assistant directors who worked on the film. With this being the scenario, in the recently held success meet of Vikram in Kerala, music composer Anirudh was asked if he received any gift from Kamal Haasan, marking the success of the film. On an interesting note, Anirudh replied, "He gave me Vikram", adding that the film by itself was a gift for him.
The instant reply from Anirudh has won the hearts of the fans who are labelling the reply to be savage. The clipping of Anirudh's reply has turned viral on social media. Anirudh's music was indeed one of the major pillars of Vikram and his score added more intensity to the scenes. His songs also served the purpose of making the film reach big among the masses. Produced by Raaj Kamal Films International, the film features Fahadh Faasil and Vijay Sethupathi as the other leads, alongside Chemban Vinod Jose, Gayathrie, Narain, Santhana Bharathi, Elango Kumaravel, Kalidas Jayaram, Swathishta, Vasanthi, and others.
Vikram has cinematography handled by Girish Gangadharan whose work in the film was widely raved.
