Thangalaan starring Vikram released two days ago. The film had enjoyed a good hype with a holiday advantage release too. Thangalaan also opened with the career highest number for the lead actor, Vikram. Many thought Thangalaan vs Raayan will be evident from the opening day itself. But it looks Raayan has won this battle.
Raayan starring Dhanush had a great start at the box office on the opening day. In Tamil Nadu, Thangalaan took higher opening than Raayan. But Day 2 performance of Thangalaan saw a minor drip whereas Raayan held it very well on Day 2. Thangalaan is facing a big competition with other Tamil release, Demonte Colony 2. Looking at the current trend, it looks like grossing 100 crore will be tough for Thangalaan.
The problem with Thangalaan is it doesn’t appeal to all section of people unlike Raayan which impressed all. Raayan even went on to gross 150 crores worldwide. But Thangalaan with its limitative approach may not become a huge hit like Raayan. So, we’ll have to wait for The GOAT starring Vijay which will easily break Raayan’s record irrespective of the talk. Till then Raayan will enjoy the status of highest grosser of the year.
