That’s when the private schools were really flourishing and were slowly taking over the government schools. It had become a big issue back then and even got the government involved to sort this issue. Some of these events inspired me to make Vaathi,” he said. As per the data shared by Sacnilk, Vaathi grossed Rs 84.87 crores in three weeks from all languages.
