Vettaiyan Box Office Collection Day 1: Registers 6th Biggest Opening Of 2024, Misses Jailer By 34% Less Earnings

Rajinikanth’s Vettaiyan has opened well despite being a Thursday release. If we compare it with the superstar’s last release, Jailer, the numbers are a bit less, but in isolation, the film has marked a good start at the Indian box office. It wasn’t an out-and-out mass entertainer of Thalaiva. Still, it comfortably went past the 30 crore mark and managed to register the sixth-best opening of 2024.

Rajini’s latest release isn’t a typical front-loaded affair, but it’s more of a content-driven film. Still, on the eve of a big holiday, it managed to earn numbers. Yesterday, in our prediction story, we expected the opening day to be in a range of 36-40 crores, but that hasn’t happened, as the biggie missed it by just a few crores.

In the early estimates story, Vettaiyan was scoring its day 1 in the range between 31-33 crores, and that’s exactly what happened. The biggie earned 32 crores net (all languages) yesterday at the Indian box office. Close to 40 crores or above 40 crores would have been better, but still, it’s a good number, and from hereon, all eyes are set on how the film grows.
