Superstar Ajith Kumar's Good Bad Ugly made a solid impact when it was released in Tamil Nadu on April 10th, raking in Rs 28 crore on its opening day. Directed by Adhik Ravichandran, the action-comedy continued to hold strong in its first few days. By Day 5, the film was expected to collect around Rs 11 crore, pushing its total to Rs 93 crore from Tamil Nadu alone, a solid performance for any film.

On Day 1, Good Bad Ugly surprised many by beating the collections of two big movies: Rajinikanth's Vettaiyan (Rs 19.75 crore) and Kamal Haasan’s Indian 2 (Rs 13 crore). However, GBU failed to surpass the first-day collection of The GOAT, starring Thalapathy Vijay, which earned Rs 30 crore.

Here’s a closer look at the numbers for the first four days:

Day    Good Bad Ugly    The GOAT    Vettaiyan    Indian 2
Day 1    Rs 28 crore    Rs 30 crore Rs 19.75 crore Rs 13 crore
Day 2 Rs 14.5 crore Rs 21 crore Rs 16.50 crore Rs 12.25 crore
Day 3 Rs 18.5 crore Rs 27 crore Rs 18 crore Rs 10.60 crore
Day 4 Rs 21 crore Rs 27.250 crore Rs 15.75 crore Rs 2.35 crore
Day 5 Rs 11 crore (expected) Rs 13.30 crore    Rs 3 crore     Rs 2.40 crore
Total Rs 93 crore Rs 118.55 crore    Rs 73 crore    Rs 40.60 crore

 


On its second day, Good Bad Ugly raked in Rs 14.5 crore, outperforming Indian 2 but still behind The GOAT and Vettaiyan. On Day 3, it managed to edge past Indian 2 and Vettaiyan, but the Vijay starrer was still in the lead. Day 4 saw similar results: Good Bad Ugly overtook Indian 2 and Vettaiyan but couldn’t match The GOAT.

With Ambedkar Jayanti giving a holiday boost on Day 5, Good Bad Ugly could bring in another Rs 11 crore, but still, that will be pretty much short of Vijay's The GOAT. That film had pooled Rs 13.30 crore on its Day 5. We’ll have to wait for the final tally, but the race for top box office honors is far from over. That said, Good Bad Ugly is doing extremely well for itself with unprecedented collections.
