Thaai Kizhavi Box Office Collections: Radhikaa Sarathkumar film scores a superb Rs. 16 Cr weekend in India

Tamil film Thaai Kizhavi collected over Rs. 7 crore on Sunday, with which it wrapped its opening weekend at the Indian box office, accumulating Rs. 16 crore approx. The Radhikaa Sarathkumar starrer showcased a fantastic trend over the weekend, with Saturday seeing the business nearly doubling from Friday and then Sunday seeing a healthy 25 per cent growth despite a big cricket match in the evening.

The bulk of business came from the home state of Tamil Nadu, where it brought in Rs. 14 crore approx over the weekend, from a starting point of Rs. 2.75 crore approx on Friday. Karnataka was the next best at just under Rs. 1.50 crore, with business seeing a sharp rise over the weekend. 

Based on the strong trajectory over the first weekend, the film is certain to emerge as a HIT. Depending on how well it holds over the weekdays and then the coming weeks, it could go on to be a big one. The year started on a low note for the Tamil film industry, with the lucrative release period of Pongal turning out to be largely a dud due to the delay of Jana Nayagan. Since then, With Love has performed well, and now Thaai Kizhavi looks likely to become the first major HIT of the year.
