Rajinikanth's 'Vettaiyan' witnesses significant drop; still collects ₹5.25cr on Monday
The TJ Gnanavel directorial saw a drop in theater occupancy on Monday. The Tamil version of the film saw an overall 22.58% occupancy, while the Telugu and Hindi versions saw 17.82% and 8.3% occupancy respectively. Despite this drop, it will be interesting to see how long it takes for Vettaiyan to cross the ₹200 crore mark at the box office. Reportedly, the production cost of Vettaiyan was around ₹160 crore. Even though the box office numbers have recently dropped, the film easily crossed this amount within a few days of its release (its global gross had gone over ₹200cr within four days). The film was released in multiple languages including Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam on October 10.
