Vettaiyan Box Office Day 1 Prediction: Expected to Earn 40 Crores, But Rajinikanth’s Film Might Fall Short of Guntur Kaaram to Break into the Top 5 Highest Openings of 2024!
- Views: 15
The highly anticipated Tamil action drama Vettaiyan, featuring legendary actors Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan, is poised to make a significant impact at the Indian box office. As the first major release for Dussehra 2024, Vettaiyan marks Amitabh Bachchan’s debut in Tamil cinema, and early reviews are promising, with positive word-of-mouth driving interest.
Impressive Advance Bookings
The advance booking sales for Vettaiyan have been remarkable, generating ₹18.26 crores gross (excluding blocked seats) on the opening day. This impressive figure outperformed the previous release Indian 2, which earned ₹11.20 crores gross, showcasing the high expectations surrounding this film.
Box Office Predictions for Day 1
Given the current buzz and audience interest, Vettaiyan is predicted to earn between ₹36-40 crores on its first day in India. With the ongoing Durga Puja festivities in various parts of the country, late evening and night show bookings are expected to boost occupancy rates significantly.
However, despite these impressive numbers, it seems that Vettaiyan will not break into the top 5 highest openers of 2024. The current leaderboard includes:
- Kalki 2898 AD – ₹93 crores
- Devara – ₹83 crores
- Stree 2 – ₹64.80 crores (including paid previews)
- The GOAT – ₹45 crores
- Guntur Kaaram – ₹42 crores
Vettaiyan is projected to fall just short of Guntur Kaaram by approximately ₹2 crores, making its climb into the top 5 unlikely.
Production and Cast
Vettaiyan was produced on a substantial budget exceeding ₹200 crores. The film features a star-studded supporting cast, including Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Manju Warrier, Ritika Singh, Dushara Vijayan, Rohini, Rao Ramesh, Abhirami, and Ramesh Thilak.
The film was released in theatres on October 10, 2024, and it will face competition from other releases like Jigra and Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video.
Conclusion
Vettaiyan is set to draw in large audiences with its star power and captivating storyline. While it may not enter the top 5 highest openings of 2024, the film is expected to achieve commendable box office success. As always, stay tuned for more updates on Vettaiyan’s performance and box office figures!
