Rajinikanth’s latest film, Vettaiyan, has made a remarkable impact at the box office, crossing the ₹100 crore mark in just two days. Directed by TJ Gnanavel, this action drama also features Amitabh Bachchan, Manju Warrier, and Fahadh Faasil among its star-studded cast.
On its opening day, Vettaiyan collected approximately ₹31.7 crore in India. The film continued to perform well on its second day, earning ₹25.45 crore, bringing its total domestic collection to ₹61.30 crore.
When combined with international earnings of about ₹43 crore (over $5 million), the film’s worldwide total reached around ₹104.50 crore within just 48 hours.
Box Office Performance And Expectations
The film’s strong performance is particularly notable in Tamil Nadu and Kerala, where it has maintained solid occupancy rates. However, there has been a slight drop in collections in Andhra Pradesh, while the film has not gained significant traction in North India.
As Vettaiyan continues to draw audiences during the Dussehra holiday weekend, expectations are high that it will approach the ₹200 crore mark by the end of the extended weekend.
