Suriya's action comedy flick on Wednesday (day six) earned ₹8.05 crore in India net haul as it nears the end of a very successful first week in cinemas.
Today's India net collection came from 5,287 shows, of which 3,837 Tamil shows contributed ₹6.15 crore, while 1,450 Telugu screenings raked in ₹1.90 crore, as per box office tracker Sacnilk.
This has pushed the film's total India net collection past the ₹100-crore mark to ₹105.45 crore, while its India gross earnings stand at ₹122.50 crore.
The film collected ₹4 crore overseas, which pushed its total overseas gross to ₹66 crore,
Overseas, the film collected ₹4.00 crore on Day 6, taking its total overseas gross to ₹66.00 Cr so far. Worldwide gross earnings also rose to ₹188.50 crore, putting the film eyes just ₹11.5 crore away from entering the ₹200-crore club.
This also points to a special hat-trick that Suriya's film may achieve by Thursday night.
After crossing the ₹100-crore mark in India gross earnings on Tuesday and the ₹100-crore mark in India net haul on Wednesday, the film stands a chance at grossing more than ₹200 crore worldwide by Thursday night.
This also comes in the face of a massive drop in India net figures for the film just after a stellar Diwali-week run, with the report pointing out that after it grew from ₹20.35 crore to ₹23.65 crore on Sunday (Diwali), it then dropped by 9.5 per cent to ₹21.40 crore.
Its India net haul then dropped sharply (40 per cent) to ₹12.85 crore, after which Wednesday's collection also showed another 37.4 per cent fall to reach ₹8.05 crore.
All eyes are on the film's performance at the box office on day seven to see if it can push past the ₹200-crore worldwide gross milestone to end its first week in cinemas on a high.
