The Greatest of All Time (GOAT) has made a massive impact at the Indian box office over its extended four-day weekend. Starring Thalapathy Vijay, the film grossed approximately Rs 39 crore on Sunday alone. This brings its total earnings to around Rs 162 crore in India, a remarkable feat for any film.
The GOAT Remains Behind LEO Despite Record-Breaking Collections In Tamil Nadu
In Tamil Nadu, The GOAT made headlines with a Sunday collection of Rs 27.50 crore. This impressive figure pushed its four-day total to over Rs 100 crore, making it one of the fastest films to hit this milestone. It joins Vijay’s previous hit, Leo, as one of the fastest films to reach the century mark.
However, Leo still holds the record for the highest-grossing film in Tamil Nadu, with a total of Rs 110.75 crore from its opening weekend. The difference between the two films is notable, with Leo having a stronger first day, although The GOAT has matched Leo‘s performance from Friday to Sunday.
Despite The GOAT‘s impressive start, it trails behind Leo in the Tamil Nadu box office rankings. The gap is expected to widen slightly, as Leo benefited from holidays on Monday and Tuesday, which boosted its numbers.
However, The GOAT‘s positive performance suggests it has a solid chance of catching up, especially if it maintains strong numbers in the weeks to come. The key will be securing a strong collection on Monday, with early pre-sales indicating this is achievable.
Thalapathy Vijay’s Film Performs Well In Other Regions
In Karnataka, The GOAT performed well, grossing Rs 21 crore over the weekend. The Hindi dubbed version of the film also did notably well, pulling in Rs 11.50 crore despite minimal marketing.
However, the film faced challenges in Kerala and the Telugu states, where it fell short of expectations. In these regions, The GOAT managed only around Rs 20 crore combined, compared to Leo‘s Rs 60 crore in the same period.
