accomplished it in such a short period of time is mind-blowing indeed. When compared the numbers achieved by Puli's trailer with some of the other biggies that was released in recent times, it can be said that Puli
might be the ultimate winner by the time it finishes. Baahubali's trailer has so far managed to accumulate an unbelievable 10 million views in YouTube but the video has just 29,167 likes.
Vikram's much hyped I boasts of 8.5 million views and an impressive 53,604 likes which makes a good package indeed. Ajith's Yennai Arindhaal
has the highest number of likes as 66,676 people have hit the like button so far but the video has managed to gather just 4.8 million views.
Will Puli Be The Ultimate Winner? In this interesting battle between trailers, looks like Puli will end up as the ultimate winner going by the rate at which it is going right now.
Likes Having gathered 63,527 likes in less than 2 days, it should be a matter of time before the video surpasses the record which is currently being held by Thala Ajith's Yennai Arindhaal.
Views Though Baahubali is far ahead with more than 10 million views, Puli's incredible beginning means that it could beat Baahubali by the time it finishes. It will be interesting to see if the trailer can reach 3 million views by the end of this week.
