For probably the first time, an Ajay Devgn film has taken the top spot at the Chennai city Box Office. His 'Raid' has good reviews, with a big screen count. It's making the most of this dry phase with no new Tamil releases. Here's the latest Top 5 at the Chennai Box Office:
| Rank | Movie | Weekend Collection (Friday to Sunday) | Total Collection | Verdict |
| 1 | Raid | 49 Lakhs | 49 Lakhs | Above Average Opening |
| 2 | Black Panther | 17 Lakhs | 2.56 Cr | Hit |
| 3 | Kalakalappu2 | 17 Lakhs | 4.76 Cr | Super Hit |
| 4 | Kirrak Party |
15 Lakhs | 15 lakhs | Average Opening |
| 5 | Padmaavat | 12 Lakhs | 5.81 Cr | Mega Blockbuster |
Padmaavat gets a verdict upgrade to Mega Blockbuster. It has crossed the 50 days mark and may even touch the 6 CR mark in the city, if there aren't new Tamil releases this coming Friday too.
