Veera Dheera Sooran had the potential to do well, but it is now heading toward a premature end at the worldwide box office. It performed well in the first few days but couldn’t maintain the expected momentum for a long time. Also, the grand release of Ajith Kumar’s Good Bad Ugly dented its run. In the recent update, it just crossed the 65 crore mark and is likely to wrap up below Chiyaan Vikram’s Thangalaan. Keep reading for a detailed collection report of 19 days!

Salman Khan’s Sikandar does not seem to pick up despite creating buzz.

In fact, as per the real time sales, it is selling only 30 tickets per minute on an average!

On March 28, the film registered ticket sales of 20K on Bms from 8 Am to 7 Pm. This means that the action biggie is selling only 1800 tickets per hour and 30 tickets per minute on Bms!

Highest Priced Ticket

The highest-priced ticket for Sikandar is Rs 2210 for Maison Inox, Jio World Plaza Mumbai! Meanwhile, most of the luxury theaters have a price range of Rs 1800 – 2000. This is less than the highest-priced ticket for Allu Arjun‘s Pushpa 2,...

Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 is all set for its release tomorrow. After the grand success of Dragon, the next big release from Kollywood is ready to be unleashed in the form of the Chiyaan Vikram starrer.

Directed by Su Arun Kumar, the Kollywood action thriller has some buzz around it. Still, it’s not up to the level of Vikram’s other theatrical releases in the post-pandemic era. The Ponniyin Selvan franchise had the most pre-release buzz among Vikram’s post-covid releases.

Coming to Chiyaan Vikram’s Tamil film, it has commenced its advance booking on Bms, but the pace of the film is too slow. In 24 hours, it could garner ticket pre-sales of only 5.17K, which is not a good number for a film releasing on March 27.

The box office has changed drastically in the post-covid era, and many big actors have suffered. Chiyaan Vikram is one such actor who is struggling in the post-pandemic period. He tasted success with Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan 1, but none of his theatrical releases managed to get a hit verdict at the Indian box office. Now, all hopes are from his upcoming biggie, Veera Dheera Sooran. Keep reading for a detailed report!

If one were to search for the country that constantly produces over the top movies of epic scale one would have to look no further than India. Ranjith Pandurangan‘s Tamil title “Thangalaan” is definitely within the category, although instead of complete mythology/fantasy (as in the case of “Baahubali” for example) his effort has its base in history. Screenwriters Azhagiyae Periyavan, Tamil Praba and Tamizh Prabha based their story in the Kolar Gold Fields during the British Rule in the late 1800s, coming up with a movie that can also be described as a historical drama.

It’s not that there were no major releases, but still, they couldn’t meet the expectations that were set by 2023.

He also dismissed rumors that claimed Netflix backed out of the deal to purchase streaming rights due to the film’s poor theatrical performance, calling them baseless.

Following its success, the movie’s Ott release has been highly anticipated. Netflix secured the digital streaming rights long before the film’s theatrical debut, reportedly for a sum of ₹35 crore. Although the streaming premiere was originally planned for September 2024, it faced some delays.
