Vettaiyan starring Rajinikanth released amid good expectations but ended up as a failure at the box office. The film has managed to achieve breakeven in just only two territories i.e., Kerala and Karnataka. In Kerala, Vettaiyan collected more than 16 crores gross and Karnataka’s gross was close to 20 crores gross.
In other territories, the film has ended up with big losses. In Tamil Nadu alone, Vettaiyan will be closing less than 100 crores. In Overseas, the film will close in the range of $10Million. These should be considered as below par numbers for the film and Rajinikanth’s craze as well. In Telugu States, the film collected only around 19 crores gross against a breakeven mark of 30 crores.
Overall, Vettaiyan’s collections are at 235 crores gross against a breakeven mark of 325 crores worldwide. This indicates that the film has attained a flop status. Rajinikanth and Lyca Productions are also thinking to team up again to compensate the losses they faced with their collaborative films in recent times.
