As the Vijay Sethupathi starrer Maharaja nears the Rs 100 crore milestone at the Chinese box office, it is poised to become the highest-grossing Indian film in China since 2018. According to the Chinese cinema ticket portal Maoyan, the movie earned RMB 13.37 million (approximately Rs 15.6 crore) on its opening day in November.
Maharaja tells the story of a barber and single father living in Chennai with his daughter. Their lives take a dramatic turn when, on a day his daughter is out of town, the barber is attacked, their house is broken into, and a seemingly insignificant steel dustbin goes missing.
The dustbin, revered by both father and daughter as a god’s idol for saving the latter’s life as a baby, becomes central to the plot. Determined to retrieve it, the father enlists the help of the police, unraveling a rabbit hole of intrigue and mystery.
In addition to Vijay Sethupathi, Maharaja features an ensemble cast, including Anurag Kashyap, Sachana Namidass, Mamta Mohandas, Natty Subramaniam, Abhirami Gopikumar, Divyabharathi, Singampuli, and more in key roles.
Directed by Nithilan Swaminathan, the film earned widespread acclaim from audiences in India upon its release in June 2024.
