It is noteworthy that with the success of the previous films, fans and critics are waiting with great anticipation. Especially since it is releasing during the Dussehra festival season, the pre-order ticket sales are witnessing a sharp growth. This undoubtedly bodes well for the film ‘Idli Kadai’.

The joys and sorrows of village life are emotionally expressed in Nithya Menon’s performance. Arun Vijay plays the antagonist, and the dedicated actor put in a lot of effort to deliver a solid role. Adding to Dhanush, Nithya Menen, and Arun Vijay, veteran actors Sathyaraj, Rajkiran, and Prakash Raj play crucial role to make the supporting cast more powerful.

GV Prakash Kumar returns to score music for Dhanush
