Vikram’s son Dhruv Vikram made his Kollywood debut in 2019 with the Arjun Reddy remake Adithya Varma, but the film didn’t perform well. His next project, Varmaa, directed by Bala, also failed at the box office. Later, Dhruv teamed up with his father in Mahaan, directed by Karthik Subbaraj. Though the film impressed audiences, it skipped a theatrical release due to the pandemic and premiered directly on Amazon Prime Video
After several setbacks, Dhruv was eagerly waiting for a proper theatrical success. He believed in Mari Selvaraj’s vision and went through intense preparation for Bison, which released this Diwali. Despite facing competition from the much-hyped Dude, Bison is showing strong performance at the box office. Its collections are growing day by day, with Day 3 turning out to be the biggest yet.
The film has grossed around ₹16 crore worldwide during its first weekend, and the advance bookings remain strong. Going by the current trend, Bison is expected to enjoy a long run and may cross ₹50 crore gross in its full run.
For Dhruv Vikram, who had been waiting for the right breakthrough, Mari Selvaraj has delivered the much-needed success. The film not only scored commercially but also earned Dhruv huge appreciation for his performance. The Telugu version of Bison is releasing this weekend and is expected to attract good numbers as well
