Thangalaan Achieves Rs 89 Crore in Box Office

The period drama 'Thangalaan,' starring Chiyaan Vikram, premiered on August 15 and initially garnered positive reviews, grossing over Rs 76 crore in its first week. However, the film has since experienced a significant drop in box office performance, earning just Rs 5 crore in its second weekend, resulting in total earnings of approximately Rs 68 crore worldwide. Despite a strong opening, the film is struggling to maintain momentum due to competition and has begun to lose screens to other releases like 'Demonte Colony 2' and 'Vaazhai.' The Hindi version of 'Thangalaan' is set to release on September 6, which may help boost its earnings. Directed by Pa Ranjith, the movie explores the history of the Kolar Gold Fields and features notable performances from its cast. Currently, the film is projected to finish below Rs 75 crore unless the upcoming Hindi release significantly improves its standing.
