The action-packed political drama, with that familiar South Indian actor, kinda had a noticeable strong turnaround at the box office in its third weekend.

Basically, you could say things started moving upward from there, and the screens filled up, as people showed up more often.

After noticing the typical slowdown in ticket sales during weekdays, the movie sort of made a strong comeback on day 17. And the weekend brought a noticeable lift too, as more family audiences flowed into theaters, which helped the film record a 135% jump compared to the earlier Friday. The upturn in walk-ins across a couple of places gave its box office a fresh push, plus the spreading word-of-mouth feedback kinda helped it keep pace for a bit. For the makers and distributors, this sudden collection spike felt like a good sign for the film’s ongoing theatrical run.

The strong reaction from the crowd also showed up in the box office counts, with the film making Rs 2.35 crore net in India on Saturday, alone. After that, it pushed the overall India net total past the Rs 188 crore line. In terms of regions, the Tamil market stayed like the biggest source, and the Hindi plus the other regional versions added to the bigger earnings too. Meanwhile, overseas performance has kept going in a steady mode, so the worldwide gross finally moved beyond Rs 312 crore.

As the movie kind of enters the later chapters of its theatre run, that surprise weekend jump kind of underlines how the lead star is still, like, really popular and not just for a moment. Even with stiff competition, and even though it’s already a few weeks past release, the film has somehow held steady at the box office, and it keeps pulling in viewers. Since fans are still giving it attention, the expectation is that there will be solid walk-ins in the remaining days, and it should wrap up its theatrical run on a good, positive note.
