Key Highlight

Vikram had a big opening day yesterday but it is the Saturday number that is turning out to be more impressive. Generally, films in South India get big openings, but most of the time, especially the bigger movies, they face a significant drop in collections on day two. Vikram, however, is rock-steady on its second day, recording extraordinary collections for Saturday. The numbers that are coming for Saturday morning and matinee shows are suggesting a drop of less than 20 per cent for the film. The film already had a big pre-sales for the day but the movement during the day is very impressive. The day two over Rs. 17 crores is almost a lock and there is a chance of hitting Rs. 18 crores as well.

The Friday actuals for the film seem to be landing over Rs. 21 crores in Tamil Nadu, which will be the eighth-highest ever in the state. If the film hit the higher end of expectations on Saturday, it will take the record for the biggest non-holiday second day in Tamil Nadu. Currently, Bigil holds the record with Rs. 17.40 crores. There are two other films to collect higher on the second day, namely Sarkar and Annaatthe, but both were festival releases, having a holiday day two.

The opening day business had already ensured the film to be a Blockbuster and the second day has solidified that. With such a hold on the second day, it is likely the film will go on to post a big total and possibly break some full run records. Baahubali 2 record for biggest grosser in Tamil Nadu is going in its fifth year now. There were numerous attempts to take on the record in the last five years, but something always ended up short. Vikram has taken a big start and has reception on its side as well. There is a good chance for Vikram to be the film that takes on Baahubali 2, though it will only be known on Monday if it really can do it.
