Valimai early reactions: The Ajith Kumar-starrer gets a thumbs up from fans
The action entertainer opened to packed houses today

The highly awaited Valimai has opened to packed houses today worldwide and fans of Ajith Kumar are in jubilation to catch their favourite star on the big screen, nearly two and a half years after his last release, Nerkonda Paaravi, hit the marquee.
Billed as an entertainer with high doses of action and chase sequences, early reactions of the film seem to suggest that film has kept its promise of delivering a gigantic action spectacle.
Here are some early reactions to the H Vinoth directorial:
#Valimai - Out & out Action Packed. Outstanding bike stunt choreo & Cinematography. Pre Inteval block & Bus chase terrific. Gud BGM. Thala Neat, Karthikeya gud at few places. Story & forced emotions r on weak side. Padsable 1st Hlf, But Slips in 2nd Hlf. ‘Only’ for Action Lovers!
