Nearly two weeks after Billa released in Tamilnadu, the movie hit screens in Kerala. But the delay in no way dampened the response! Billa is officially the Christmas season rocker! The movie is said to have raked in loads more in cash and appreciation than Malayalam Moghul Mohanlal’s Flash. Movie buffs, who were disheartened by the not so entertaining Flash, were absolutely awestruck by Billa. The number of Thalai fans in God’s own country have increased, manifold. His suave looks and don-perfect attitude, have just floored the audiences in Kerala. Vishnu's Hollywood style making has impressed the Kerala audience greatly, as has Yuvan's music and Nirav's camera work. The movie released in 25 screens on the 28th of December 2007 and has been running to packed shows since. Billa marks Ajith's biggest opening in the state, yet! The King of Openings has proved that he is King even in foreign land!
