Vidaamuyarchi is inspired from Breakdown

The Ajith Kumar-starrer is inspired from the 1997 Hollywood film Breakdown, which starred Kurt Russell, J. T. Walsh and Kathleen Quinlan in the leading roles. The Jonathan Mostow directorial was a commercial success as it grossed $50 million against its budget of $35 million and has developed a cult following over the years.

Ajith Kumar's next film Good Bad Ugly

After Vidaamuyarchi, Ajith Kumar has another film lined up for release this year. He will be seen next in the action-packed thriller Good Bad Ugly, which is slated to release on April 10. The Adhik Ravichandran directorial also stars Trisha Krishnan as the leading lady and also features Arjun Das, Prasanna and Sunil in pivotal roles.
