Vikram is dominating the box office.Tamil superstar Kamal Haasan’s latest blockbuster Vikram has created a new benchmark at the box office in Tamil Nadu. In its third week, the film has emerged as the biggest ever hit in the state, overtaking the earnings of Baahubali: The Conclusion in Tamil Nadu.
The collection of Vikram in Tamil Nadu stands at Rs 155 crore. For the last five years, Baahubali 2 held the record of collecting about Rs 152 crore in Tamil Nadu and now that has been beaten.
Last week, Kamal Haasan had hosted a grand party in Chennai to celebrate the success of Vikram. The event saw director Lokesh Kanagaraj, music composer Anirudh Ravichander and main TN distributor Udhayanidhi Stalin of Red Gaint Films in attendance.
“#vikram entering 3rd week will break all Tamil box office records !,” Udhayanidhi had tweeted earlier.
Happy Father’s Day!!
Baap of all South Indian movies. Book & enjoy #Vikram at theaters.
