Thimiru, after an absolute rocker of an opening has slowed down a bit. No, it is not a flop, just that it has not been able to sustain the initial hype around it. The money however seems to be coming in nice and easy. Whenever a movie does well, the money goes to the producer, the credit to the director and the glory to the hero. In the case of Thimiru, it is not clear whether the credit is going to the right person. Confused, read on.

After giving two hits in a row, Vishal accepted Thimiru only because debutant Tarun Gopi had narrated the story in an excellent fashion.

Vishal had expected a lot from the director in terms of performance. But things turned out to be quite on the contrary. Tarun Gopi fell well short of expectations on location. He seemed to be short of ideas.

A frustrated Vishal decided to take things into his own hands to save the movie and his career. He put into use his earlier experience as an assistant director and helmed the project. He has worked under director actor Arjun in a few projects including Vedham. He put all this experience into Thimiru.
