Contributions from other states are negligible.
Among cities, Chennai is at the top with over 35 lakh gross coming in through day 1 advance booking.

In the last few years, Karthi has established as a strong force in the Tamil market. He also enjoys a decent following in Telugu states and Karnataka.

It seems that Japan will be comfortably crossed tomorrow.
