At Inox in Nariman Point it is X Men which opened to a larger crowd than Rajnikanth's latest release - Kochadaiiyaan . Even in single screen theatres like Eros in South Mumbai, it was Heropanti (debut of Tiger Shroff- son of actor Jackie Shroff) which saw larger numbers at the 3.30 show than Kochadaiiyaan which was at 1.30 this afternoon. "People think Kochadaiiyaan is an animated film for kids," said a salesman at the Eros counter.

However, South Indian communities dominating suburbs like Dombivili and Matunga are expected to fare better with a lot more Rajnikanth fans waiting to catch his latest film.
