Varisu box office collections; Emerges highest grossing film for Vijay, Crosses Rs. 300 crores worldwide
This makes it the highest-grossing film for Vijay in India, beating his previous best Master. The film has grossed another $10.80 million overseas, for a worldwide gross of Rs. 302 crores.
Varisu had another good weekend at the box office, adding Rs. 3.25 crores, which takes its all-India total to Rs. 214 crores approx. This makes it the highest-grossing film for Vijay in India, beating his previous best of Rs. 210 crores by Master. The film has grossed another $10.80 million (Rs. 88 crores) overseas, for a worldwide gross of Rs. 302 crores. This is the first Vijay starrer to hit the triple century globally, though Bigil at Rs. 299 crores is practically there.
The film has grossed Rs. 143.75 crores approx in Tamil Nadu to date, once again the career-best numbers for Vijay, ahead of Master and Bigil, both of them doing just over Rs. 140 crores. The film still has probably another Rs. 3-4 crores left in it, which will take it over Baahubali 2 to make it the third highest grosser ever in the state, behind Ponniyin Selvan: 1 and Vikram.
The box office collections of Varisu at the Indian box office are as follows:
Week One - Rs. 156 crores (9 days)

4th Friday - Rs. 0.75 crores
4th Saturday - Rs. 1.10 crores
4th Sunday - Rs. 1.40 crores
Total - Rs. 214 crores
To achieve these sorts of numbers despite facing mixed reception and significant competition serves as a testament to Vijay's formidable box office draw. Despite consistently delivering blockbuster numbers with each release since 2017, Vijay is missing a universally acclaimed blockbuster like Vikram & PS:1. There are always some sort of limiting factor(s), this time it was the clash while for Beast it was bad reception and clash & COVID restrictions for Master and so on. Nevertheless, Vijay's upcoming film, Leo, has generated substantial buzz and could prove to be a watershed moment and harnessing his star power to new heights and redefining the benchmarks in the industry.

Tamil Nadu - Rs. 143.75 crores
