The reference to Ajith’s passion for motorbikes is used as bait one too many times. And when the fans bite it, they are whipped into a frenzy. There is so much action on the screen but very little happens in every scene.”

In one other article, Manoj decoded the rationale as to why Ajith’s Valimai did not carry out as effectively on the field workplace in Hindi belts.
“The general consensus among Mumbai-based distributors and exhibitors seems to be that Valimai and Ravi Teja’s Khiladi failed at the Hindi box office because they had very little to offer that was new and entertaining…’There was a lack of promotion and publicity (for Valimai). The reviews by the press were not very encouraging. Then other Hindi and Marathi films also released. Hero is not very well known in the north. Music was a drawback,’” Nitin Datar, president of the Cinema Owners and Exhibitors Association of India, instructed Indianexpress.com.
Talking about Bheemla Nayak in his assessment, Manoj Kumar wrote, “In Bheemla Nayak, we get no sense of the place where the story plays out. The film is a very shallow reading of the text of Ayyappanum Koshiyum. The Malayalam original was more than an ego clash between two men. It was about various communities, cultures, social and moral codes, toxic households, and other things that contributed to the conflict between Ayyappan and Koshy.”
At current, Bheemla Nayak and Valimai face competitors from Alia Bhatt’s Gangubai Kathiawadi and new releases — The Batman and Amitabh Bachchan’s Jhund.
