Aranmanai 4, the latest instalment in the popular Tamil horror-comedy franchise, has officially crossed the Rs 100 crore mark worldwide. The film led by Sundar C has managed to achieve this significant milestone in its sixth weekend, grossing an additional Rs 50 lakhs over the weekend to push it over the line. This is a first for both Sundar C and the Aranmanai series, whose previous best was below Rs 40 crore.

While Rs 100 crore may not be as groundbreaking in Kollywood as it was a decade ago, especially with top films now surpassing Rs 500 crore, it remains an impressive feat for movies without Tier 1 stars.

This achievement highlights the stark contrast in box office potential between films featuring major stars and those without in Kollywood.

Aranmanai 4 Is The Highest-Grossing Film Of The Year In Tamil Nadu

Aranmanai 4 also holds the title of the highest-grossing film of the year in Tamil Nadu, raking in Rs 66.50 crore and likely closing at Rs 67 crore. Outside of Tamil Nadu, the film had a moderate run, earning Rs 6.50 crore in the Telugu states and Rs 4 crore in Karnataka.

The Hindi dubbed version, released last week, contributed around Rs 2 crore, helping the film reach the Rs 100 crore milestone globally.

On the international front, the film found its strongest market in Malaysia, grossing MYR 6 million. Singapore followed with over SGD 325K. Other international territories, including the Middle East and Europe, also added to the film’s worldwide total.
