The film marks the debut of Ponvel M. and Raghul R., who deliver heartfelt performances alongside Nikhila Vimal, known for portraying a teacher in the film. Veteran actor J. Satish Kumar, along with a talented ensemble cast including Kalaiyarasan, Dhivya Duraisamy, Karnan Janaki, and Nivedita Rajappan, adds depth to the story, enhancing its emotional impact.

Despite its strong storyline and direction, ‘Vaazhai’ faced stiff competition at the box office, premiering just a week before the highly anticipated ‘The GOAT,’ starring Thalapathy Vijay.

Critics have lauded Mari Selvaraj’s direction, emphasizing his ability to weave a tale that resonates with audiences of all ages. The performances, particularly from the lead actors, have been singled out for praise.

As ‘Vaazhai’ makes its debut on Disney Plus Hotstar, viewers can now experience this story from the comfort of their homes.
