Vijay Sethupathi's Thalaivan Thalaivii Opens Strong at Tamil Nadu Box Office

Pandiraj's new film 'Thalaivan Thalaivii', starring Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen, has taken a strong opening at the Tamil Nadu box office, earning around Rs. 6 crore on Day 1. This marks Vijay Sethupathi's biggest opening since 'ACE', and signals a strong comeback after a few modest openers like 'Viduthalai Part 2'.

The film was released on over 500 screens across Tamil Nadu, with packed shows, especially in Chennai. Occupancy rates remained high throughout the state.

Early audience reviews and social media buzz are largely positive, with praise for the film's comedy, emotional scenes, and Sethupathi’s vintage performance.

If the current trend continues, trade experts expect the film to collect around ₹13–15 crore in Tamil Nadu by the end of its opening weekend.
