So far Sivaji grosses Rs. 25 crores in Tamil Nadu |
|
As per Cine sources that Sivaji is said to have collected a mind-boggling Rs. 25 crores in Tamil
Nadu alone in less than two weeks time. This is hands-down a national record, as no movie has
collected such a huge amount in a single state in less than two weeks time.
Even the much-hyped and successful Dhoom 2 grossed about Rs. 30-35
crores all over India. Sivaji, which is said to be the most expensive
production in the Indian film history, is expected to gain more than
Rs. 130 to 140 crores in theatrical release alone across the world. Sivaji has paved way for other Tamil movies to follow
its trait and has also shown the power of marketing, as the movie which
got released in Mumbai and Delhi pulled much bigger crowds than the
Hindi biggie Jhoom Barabaar Jhoom. As expected Sivaji is rewriting
every collection records thus far and within one week of its release it
has been termed a blockbuster. And not just within India, even abroad,
the movie has spelt magic, and became the first Tamil movie to feature
in the UK top ten. Hearty congratulations and thanks to Rajinikanth,
Shankar and AVM for taking Tamil movie to the international scenario
