The Greatest Of All Time knocked it out of the park, scoring the third-biggest opening for an Indian film in 2024. Due to underperformance in Telugu, the film couldn’t achieve the 50 crore mark. Nonetheless, it has achieved several milestones with its fantastic opening. Let’s do a detailed comparison of The GOAT with Thalapathy Vijay’s top 5 openers.
On the opening day, The GOAT passed with flying colors. Box office collections of 45 crores were minted in the domestic market. It also added 48.68 crores gross from the overseas markets. It was a clean century on the opening day, with collections of 101.78 crores gross worldwide.
Lands #3 among Thalapathy Vijay’s top 5 openers
Thalapathy Vijay set massive milestones with Leo (2023), which is his highest opener of all time. As per early projections, the Greatest Of All Time was expected to land second on the list as it was poised to open in the 55 crore range. Unfortunately, that could not happen due to underperformance in many Telugu states.
The GOAT is Thalapathy Vijay’s third-highest opener of all time. Take a look at the Top 5 below:
Leo- 66 crores
Beast- 49.30 crores
The GOAT- 45 crores
Sarkar- 36 crores
Master- 35 crores
Clearly, Leo led the race with almost 46% higher collections than The Greatest Of All Time on its opening day. While this milestone could not be unlocked, the sci-fi action drama will hopefully break several other records in the coming days.
