Despite a bit of criticism over a predictable climax, Vikram is going strong and dominating the box office. Elated with the success of Vikram, Kamal has also gifted director Lokesh a Lexus car. Apart from this car, Kamal also wrote Lokesh a two-page letter praising him for his endeavours in making Vikram a success. Lokesh was extremely happy receiving this token of appreciation from Kamal.
