Early Estimates: Varisu And Thunivu Fourth Day/First Saturday

Chennai, January 14 - Thalapathy Vijay's family action drama film Varisu sees a big Saturday at the box office, added by the Telugu version "Varasudu" which released today.

Directed by Vamshi Paidipally, "Varisu" scored an estimated 19+ crores gross on its 4th day/first Saturday. The Telugu version grossed an estimated approx. 4.50+ crores on the first day. "Varasudu" had a low advance booking for the opening day but surprised one and all with excellent spot booking.



The total domestic gross collection of "Varisu" now stands around 76 crores, including the Telugu version, after 4 days. The movie has crossed 50 crores gross in the home state, Tamil Nadu with today's collection, and worldwide it crossed 100 crores gross, becoming the first Indian film of 2023 to do so.

Ajith Kumar's "Thunivu", which had a direct clash with "Varisu" is legging behind the Vijay-starrer despite putting up a good collection so far. After grossing approx. 52 crores in the first three days, "Thunivu" scored an estimated 13+ crores on its 4th day, pushing total domestic collection to approx. 65 crores in 4 days.

Both "Varisu" and "Thunivu" are almost having neck-to-neck numbers in Tamil Nadu and the situation remains more or less the same after today's collection with around 50 crores each.
