Box Office: Ajith Kumar's 'Valimai' Shows Big Jump On 3rd Day
Chennai, February 26 - Ajith Kumar's high octane Tamil actioner, "Valimai" shows a major jump on its 3rd day, after a drastic drop on the second day at the Indian box office.
As per the early estimates, the H Vinoth-directed has netted Rs. 16 crores, going up by 38% from Friday collection of Rs. 11.6 crores. It took an opening of Rs. 31.7 crores, but dropped 63.41% on the second day.
The biz on day 3 picked up from afternoon shows. As compared to the second day, the afternoon occupancy went up by 63% on the 3rd day while evening occupancy jumped by 25%, helping the 3-days total to reach an estimated Rs. 59.30 crores for all languages.
"Valimai" received criticism for its lengthy run-time, and the makers were quick to rectify that and trimmed 14 minutes of the total time. The shorter than the original version has been screened from Saturday onwards, which might have also helped its Saturday biz and also improved word of mouth.
The movie, produced by Boney Kapoor under Bayview Projects LLP in collaboration with Zee Studios, also stars Karthikeya, Huma Qureshi, and Gurbani Judge in key roles. It revolves around Arjun (Ajith Kumar), a police officer, who is assigned to track down a group of outlaw bikers following their involvement in heinous crimes.
