This achievement recognizes the efforts of the crew in the journey to reach the general audience. Less than two weeks after its release, the film maintained stable attraction at the box office, despite competition from many different genres. The 100 billion VND milestone also brought the movie "Tai" to join the group of Vietnamese films with impressive revenue in recent times.
This is a noteworthy mark in Mai Tai Phen's career when he first took on three roles at the same time: screenwriter, director and main actor. Choosing a challenging direction for his debut project shows the seriousness of the male artist when stepping into the field of filmmaking.
Sharing about this achievement, Mai Tai Phen said that 100 billion VND is a special number, but what makes him cherish it more is the audience's affection for the film. According to him, the fact that viewers stay to the end and empathize with the story is the motivation to continue pursuing the path of cinema.
In the role of producer, My Tam also officially joined the group of artists who own billion-dollar films. After the previous project "My Assistant", the success of "Tai" continues to affirm her serious orientation in the field of cinema.
My Tam said that she did not prioritize revenue goals when starting the project, but prioritized telling a close, emotional story. Success at the box office, according to the female singer, is the motivation for her and her crew to continue investing in more elaborate products in the future.
Besides the two main factors, the supporting cast also contributes to creating attraction for the film. Faces such as Sy Toan, Tran Kim Hai and Ray Nguyen impress with the villain character line, contributing to increasing drama for the story. Meanwhile, Quang Trung for the first time owns a hundred-billion-VND movie, bringing a gentle color, balancing the film's flow.
Tai" revolves around a character of the same name - a man who falls into a dangerous vortex due to a large debt. Pushed into a dead end, he is forced to make wrong choices, making his family a threatened target. The film exploits the conflict between responsibility, family affection and the line between right and wrong in harsh circumstances.
Not only making a mark at the box office, the film's promotional journey also attracted attention. The crew continuously organized exchanges in many provinces and cities, including a plan to return to Da Nang - My Tam's hometown. This is considered a special meaningful stop, helping the film connect more deeply with local audiences.
