The South Indian film "Amaran" has made a significant impact on the Indian box office, causing a ripple effect that extends to the highly anticipated Bollywood releases "Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3" and "Singham Again." While both Kartik Aaryan and Ajay Devgn's films are performing well, Amaran has already crossed ₹130 crores, achieving the ₹100 crore milestone within a mere four days of its release. This exceptional performance has sparked anticipation for the film's continued box office success.
Directed by Rajkumar Periyasamy, Amaran boasts an impressive cast, featuring two of the biggest stars in the industry, Sivakarthikeyan and Sai Pallavi. Released on October 31, 2024, the film garnered a strong opening day collection of ₹21 crore. Despite a slight dip on the second day, earning ₹19.15 crore, the film rebounded on day three, bringing in ₹21 crore. Day four saw the film mint ₹20.81 crore, pushing the total to ₹82.76 crore. "Amaran" was released in five languages: Tamil, Kannada, Hindi, Telugu, and Malayalam.
The film's success isn't just a matter of numbers. It's a testament to the strong narrative and powerful performances delivered by its cast. "Amaran" is a biographical drama focusing on the life of the late Major Mukund Varadharajan, who tragically lost his life in the 2014 Shopian encounter. Major Varadharajan, a posthumous recipient of the Ashoka Chakra Award, is portrayed by Sivakarthikeyan, with Sai Pallavi playing his wife, Indu Rebeccan Varghese. The film's compelling story has resonated with audiences, contributing to its box office success.
"Amaran" is poised to become the fifth highest-grossing Tamil film of 2024, trailing behind "Raayan," "Maharaja," "Goat," and "Vettaiyan." The film's occupancy rate is highest in Tichy, reaching 99.33 percent. Cities like Chennai, Madurai, Coimbatore, Pondicherry, Salem, Vellore, and Mumbai also reported high occupancy rates. Given its impressive performance in the last three days, the movie is projected to surpass the ₹200 crore mark shortly.
The success of "Amaran" signifies the growing influence of South Indian cinema in the Indian film industry. With its compelling story, strong performances, and widespread release, "Amaran" is poised to make its mark on the box office landscape, impacting the fortunes of other releases, including "Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3" and "Singham Again."
